This review is for Emma, haven't seen anyone else at Workshop. Started getting my cut and color done by Emma at a friend's recommendation and so glad I listened! I kind of rambled about what I wanted shape and color wise and somehow she completely nailed it. I trust her completely and know I'll leave looking good if I'm in her hands. Also worth noting I have VERY curly hair and have historically gone to curl "specialists" who charge a ton and left me disappointed. Never again. read more

This review is for Jane!! Went in this morning with an appointment not knowing who I would get. It was my first time getting my hair done since moving to the LA area. Jane was so sweet and very knowledgeable and was so open me answering any questions I had. She made it so easy and made me hair look just like what I wanted! This is my graduation hair so i'm so excited! Jane is amazing :) read more

Leslie is the best! I've been driving from Santa Monica for 2+ years after trying many others. She truly understands your individual hair, and I always leave with great tips on how to keep my hair healthy and styled. She recommended the hot oil treatment and it's been a game changer for vacations so I don't have to worry about my hair becoming frizzy or unmanageable. My hair feels so soft and sleek and keeps it looking good for many days after. The space is really comfortable, and she creates a very welcoming environment while you're getting your hair done. read more

This was a very nice surprise for me. I moved close to this place and I needed to find a convenient place to do my hair. With great fear of the possible outcome but I had to try it. Well, after years of looking for a place that knew what I needed done and someone to really hear what I wanted I FOUND IT!!! read more

LESLIE IS IT YALL! I trust her with my hair and she kills it EVERY TIME! Anything from my bold, drastic changes to my subtle, maintenance appointments, her first priority is hair health! Not to mention, the most beautiful human with amazing energy to converse with during your appt. I won't go anywhere else! read more

Leslie is the best thing that has ever happened to my hair. I travel for work and have lived in multiple cities and have never found anyone anywhere close to her level. She is an expert in her craft and can execute at a high level across all kinds of different hair colors and textures. Her hand-painted balayage is perfection and keeps me looking good even though I have to go a long time between appointments. I have also seen her do some very intense color changes and corrections on others with stunning results. She keeps the color very cool-toned to avoid any banana or orange creeping in and it lasts so well. Her haircuts are also perfect in that I never notice them - when I have my hair cut elsewhere there are always small problems here and there or weird shapes but the only thing I notice with Leslie is that there are fewer tangles at the ends when I wash. It it subtly just the perfect shape. I also have wavy/curly hair and she cuts & styles it expertly to work for whichever way I want to style it. So frequently a 'curly' haircut will leave odd ledges and layers when it's worn straight - not so with Leslie. She has taken the time to teach how to keep hair looking fabulous between appointments; how to wash my hair properly at home, which shampoos and products my hair needs, and always has the perfect recommendations. Finally, she is simply a joy to be around and is a special person to know. She pours so much love, energy, and confidence into everyone around her. If you're not getting your hair done by Leslie you should upgrade your life and get her in it! read more

I never write reviews but I've been going to Leslie for about 4 years now and she is phenomenal every time. Book with Leslie!

Coco and Boots are such a gift to me and anyone else who gets the pleasure of sitting in their chair. I have been getting my hair done by them since 2021, and have always been more than happy with my color by Boots, and my haircuts and extensions (on and off) by Coco. They always deliver, whether that is getting creative when you want to try something new, or simply there for a touch up. I never leave their chair without feeling 100% better than when I came in. They will not disappoint you. read more

Just an update to say I'm still going to Emma after years of her doing my hair and I'm still in love. She knows blondes so well and always knows what I want. I always love my hair when I leave her chair. She's my go-to. Will always recommend this girl to anyone! read more

Leslie was amazing! Super patient, friendly, and very knowledgeable & informative about hair--- and very talented!!! She gave my 14 year old a great cut and took the time to teach her how to style it (with the products and tools we already have and from her perspective/angle. She also helped us understand her hair type and best types of shampoo and BP's for washing hair (who knew I have washed hair wrong my whole life! Doh!). This was my teenage daughter's first experience with a real salon and her first time experimenting with a hairstyle (she always had straight long hair or a shoulder length bob). I feel so fortunate that Leslie took our call that day because she not only gave an amazing haircut, she gave my girl an awesome experience! She showed my daughter first hand all the reasons I cherish a great hair salon and stylist. I have had 3 hair stylists in L.A. since moving here in 1999 and it took a lot of bad cuts and bad experiences to find each of them! I gave up searching (for myself) after I lost my last one 4-5 years ago, but I will definitely go to Leslie for mine and the rest of my fam will too! My teenager already refers to her as "her hair stylist"! read more

So I was sitting in my chair at this salon - getting my hair done. I was looking at their Yelp page and saw Karen's review below (LOL of course her name is Karen)... I completely disagree w her. Bitter people tend to exaggerate distress. I just got my hair done with Emma and not only is she fun and sweet to talk to, but that girl did WORK on my hair and I've got nothing but compliments!!! She's a gem, and her work is on point. To anyone reading this: please let my hair speak for itself and don't listen to a woman who has too much time on her hands to write an autobiography. Take it from me, Emma is your girl and she is THE girl. Thank you so much love. See you in a few months! read more

I recently had my hair cut with Emma and was extremely disappointed. She came to my home (salon not open) and asked, "What are we doing? Just a trim? " And I said, "Yes, I'm growing it out." And she replied, "Same thing as last time?" And I said, "Yes." (I'd gotten my hair cut with her 2 times before and she did a great job, which is what makes this worse -- the inconsistency.) At the end of the cut I went to my bedroom to check it out and noticed it felt short, but wanted to give it a minute. I paid her and proceeded to re-check it in the mirror. I was horrified to see how very short she'd cut the pieces around my face. I had been growing my hair out over quarantine and it was almost (finally!) all one length and getting past my shoulders and down my back. I'd been growing out the layers and the pieces in the front and I was finally excited about how long it had been getting. And all of a sudden I had super short pieces around my face and uneven layers throughout. The right side is also thinner and shorter than the left. She left me with a Farrah Faucet feathered look (particularly on the right!) with huge holes on both sides. The layers also did a "mushroomy" type of thing after I styled it with my curling iron because they were cut so poorly (as in -- it looked like there was a mushroom on top of my head). I couldn't even get my curling iron around the front pieces. (cue pangs of grief) I decided to sleep on it, rewash and style it the next day to make sure it wasn't just the way she blow dried it. But after I washed and dried it, it was clear that the cut was a mess. And so was I. I texted her to let her know I was disappointed (with pics). I asked why she would cut my NATURALLY VERY CURLY hair (see pic) that short, especially around the face. She replied, "I'm so sorry you're unhappy! Give it another week or so to settle in. I didn't take too much off the front, and just 1/2 inch off all around." I shouldn't have to wait "a week or so" to feel comfortable with a trim. Also, she completely denied the fact that she cut it too short (and completely uneven) and instead made it all about my feelings. (This is called gaslighting.) I'm writing this review a full 5 wks after the cut and it still hasn't "settled in." I still feel angry and upset every time I look in the mirror. I couldn't even sleep the first night. My focus is STILL on my hair every day. I feel embarrassed to leave my apartment with my hair down. I'm an actor and a life coach and am on video all the time -- And I was about to get new headshots and go "shopping" for a new agent and now I have to wait a minimum of THREE TO SIX MONTHS to do that. I am heartbroken. Sadly, there's been *zero* accountability for the bad cut. The blame was shifted to me for not liking it. She said she could come back and "make adjustments, " but clearly I didn't want her anywhere near my hair again. I spoke to the owner who listened to my concerns and said she'd talk to Emma about it. I thought perhaps, since I explained how awful the cut was and how it was affecting my life, I'd get a call back to try and make it right in some way. I asked if she'd seen the photos I sent Emma. She said she saw 1. I sent 6. I haven't heard anything and this is literally the worst haircut I've ever gotten. Yes, I got a refund, but now I'm stuck with this awful cut and the emotional ramifications for 3-6 months minimum. I expect more from a salon of this caliber. I waited to write this review to give the salon a chance to make it right, but as of this writing, it still doesn't feel right. I obviously won't be going back to someone who is not consistent with her cuts and does not take responsibility when she clearly gets it wrong. *This review gets 2 stars bc Colleen did a great job with my color last summer. read more

I came in for a color correction from copper to blonde. During my appointment, Boots and Coco made sure to explain the whole process to me and they made sure I was comfortable the whole way and worked so diligently. I was so impressed with the final result! I always get so nervous at salons but these two managed to make me feel so safe and welcomed. I totally recommend them to anyone wanting any type of service from color correction to a haircut , they will not disappoint! read more

LESLIE is truly special. I was on the hunt for a stylist who understands thin hair/androgenic alopecia and was so lucky to find her and workshop via yelp. I listened to every piece of advice (style tips, vitamins, products) and my hair has never been healthier. Most importantly, she approached my hair journey with so much empathy. My confidence has skyrocketed as a direct result of her care and service. The salon itself is lovely. Professional but not snobby. Welcoming but not over the top. I'm definitely not a "Beverly Hills" gal, but I feel comfortable in the space! The woman at the front desk was incredible at my last visit. Made me coffee upon arrival and volunteered to feed my meter when she heard an alarm go off on my phone. Above and beyond type service. THANK YOU Leslie and Workshop!! read more

Great salon!! Excellent services. Excellent colorists. A little bit expensive, but "Beverly Hills" quality. My stylist had to take a time off, and she recommended another stylist for me in the interim. Second stylist is excellent, also. read more

I am from Michigan, and the same person has been cutting and highlighting my hair for over 12 years there. I was in a bind and needed a refresh while in LA and decided to place my trust in a total stranger at Workshop Salon based on all the positive reviews--and I'm thrilled that I did! My cut and highlights from Emma are amazing! She was very kind and reassuring after I told her I usually trust NO ONE with my blonde upkeep. She is now officially in the circle of trust. Thank you, Emma! You will be in good hands with Emma and Workshop Salon! read more

Emma brought my hair back to life! I came into Workshop Salon knowing that I wanted to make a change ahead of my wedding early next year, but I wasn't sure exactly what I needed. Emma was so thoughtful with her suggestions, and now I'm addicted to her. The blonde highlights she gave me look so incredibly natural, and she's a wizard at blending the root color. I get so many compliments, and my hair is looking healthier and happier than it ever has. Her cuts are also great, and they grow out so well. I have curly/wavy hair and I'm actually able to let my hair air dry when I want to, which does not happen with all cuts! I've been back a few times since my first visit, and I really love the vibe of the salon, too. Everyone is friendly and chill. Highly recommend! read more

Emma knew exactly what I wanted without my having to go into a ton of detail! She was so sweet, professional and gave me the perfect new hair color (a darker shade of brown), which looks so much better, since my spring highlights were growing out. I loved the products she used, and she mentioned they were available to purchase on their website if I was interested. Price was reasonable and I was thrilled that there was availability within a few days of my call! Can't wait to come back soon! read more

A few months back I went a Second time back and unfortunately I will not be going back, gosh I regret the positive review I gave. Booked a cut and color thats well over $200 that's expensive I don't spend that kind of money every day I expected the same quality service I received my previous visit, I felt passed over didn't receive the attention I expected to put it in a nut shell she was too excited about the following client and lost interest in me was the energy I'm sorry I can't spend that kind of money and time for iffy service, you've lost my trust beautician E. read more

If you want the best hair you have to find the best colorist in LA. My hair was a total mess due to an incompetent colorist, See picture 1. I found Emma, who not only fixed my hair but got the exact color I wanted which I did not think could be done. Emma is an expert colorist, so knowledgable, listens to you and takes her time to make sure you get exactly what you want. Along with this she is adorable, I am such a fan, I would give Emma tens stars if I could! read more

Leslie KNEW what she was doing. I wanted to go from my blonde to natural color with some highlights. She spent time asking what I wanted, worked with me to decide on a color, took her time to execute. We had pleasant conversation the whole time. She's honestly amazing. The result is beautiful, exactly as I wanted and she described. My hair looks so healthy! This place is affordable and I will absolutely be coming back. My only regret is that I didn't tip more! I didn't realize the total bill was so cheap and I hit 20% out of habit. Next time I go back I'll definitely make up for it. The salon only had one other set of customer & stylist, checks vaccines, and is covid safe. We wore masks the whole time but i was having such a good time it didn't bother me for the 2 hours I was there. So glad I found my new go to salon! read more

Emma was phenomenal!! She knew exactly what I wanted and gave me such a cute cut. Before coming to her my previous haircut left me with very damaged hair that didn't match what I wanted at all. Emma worked her magic and gave me the exact cut I was looking for, while still cutting off the deadweight/keeping it healthy. Not only was she an amazing stylist but her lovely personality shined through as well. My hair feels healthy and refreshed, I really could not recommend more! Without a doubt I will be returning for Emma!!! read more

I have been to Workshop Salon 2 times now and both times Emma has cut my hair. Both times I had styles that required some attention to little details as I'm growing it out into a style that is going to take some attention and time. She is absolutely amazing! Not only did she listen to my hair-goal but also gave me a terrific cut both times that is really helping me shape up my style. Side note: She's absolutely adorable, so friendly and sweet. I love sitting in her chair. I highly recommend Emma and I look forward to my next cut! Also, I want to give a shout out to the salon. It's lovely inside and all staff I have met were super friendly. The vibe is chic, cool, intimate and not pretentious which is tough to find in this town! See you again, Emma! Thanks for making me feel like a rockstar! read more

Emma did such a great job with my cut and color! She helped add tons of shape that work with my curls and lightened up the front to give me some serious beach vibes. I'm usually not too confident when it comes to getting cuts, but Emma made me feel at ease and I knew she was going to make it look great. The whole experience was great as she was very friendly and helpful, and I felt safe in terms of Covid compliance. Emma's prices are very fair as well, which is amazing right now. Definitely would recommend! read more

Coco and Boots are the absolute best! After a horrible salon experience a couple years ago elsewhere I cannot express how happy I am to have been recommended to them by a friend and would not trust anyone else with my hair! I've only had more than amazing experiences as a client over the years and I always look forward to my appointment with them. Whether you have photo reference or are not sure what cut/color you want, they go above and beyond being attentive, efficient, and truly listen to any specifications you might have. They achieve all of this while still keeping the integrity and health of your hair to the point that I've been able to grow mine longer than it was before I started to color it over 10 years ago. I'm left amazed by their talent and collaboration every single time, and never hesitate to tell my friends (even strangers) who compliment my hair that it's all because of these two!! read more

Emma H was amazing! I got blonde highlights for the summer and they look incredibly natural. I'm always nervous about lightening my hair because I'm pretty picky about blending my roots and not getting too brassy with my color, but she heard exactly what my concerns were and got me to the PERFECT lightness that blends with my natural growth. My hair has never been shinier or healthier looking and I've been getting compliments all day! Thank you Worksop Salon, and thank you Emma!! read more

Did not have a good experience with my phone conversation/ appointment booking process. They do not have information on the brand of the products they use nor do they have an estimated pricing list for their services. I was told on the phone that it varies by the stylist but no other information was given to help me understand how it works. For example if the stylists have an experience level or they are independent consultants and i need to talk to them individually to get more information. Also, when i asked for appointment availability, the person on the phone wasn't sure of the availability of the stylists and said that due to holiday, its all mixed up. The website says they are open until 9pm, however on the phone i was told that they try to wrap up by 6pm. Bit dissapointed with the way information was communicated to me over the phone. read more

No kidding, not only did I get a TON of compliments after getting this cut, but it grew out so well I felt like I didn't need a trim for 6 months!
