Orange Berlin

Jonathan did an amazing job! I went from light blonde to brown for the first time in my life.
They serve tea and the atmosphere is great. Very clean and fun. I will be going back.

I’ve been following Luna, who’s the best hairdresser I’ve met so far, to this salon a couple of years ago. I really liked it under the old (German) owner, but the new French owners have done a nice job giving the salon a facelift and are really nice.

After searching through many reviews on Unilocal for a new stylist I can trust (I’m new in town) I finally decided to visit Luna at Orange Berlin based on the fantastic reviews on him and how close the salon was to where I live… Let me tell you — exceptional service all throughout — friendly, warm, and NOT pretentious like so many high quality salons would be around here. I was introduced to the manager and his wife and I felt like they really cared about QUALITY and making their customers feel like friends and at home rather than a «client».
I felt that Luna really listened to my needs and did a fantastic job painting natural caramel highlights into my hair like a skilled artist. (We were just chatting and he told me he went to art school and was a painter –it really shows as he has a keen sense of balance and aesthetics) He also fixed a bad haircut that I got last week and made it 10x better without additional cost. Bottom line — I will be going back to Luna for as long as I live in LA.

I’ve been seeing Vincent for regular haircuts for the past two years and he always takes perfect care of me. I’ve never been as consistently happy with haircuts as I’ve been with him.

Where to start… just magic. My husband eagerly awaits my return from Orange Berlin. I float out of that place feeling like I’m a 16, ready for anything;) My hair cuts are always gorgeous and look great through the longer than recommended growing out stage:) The salon is clean, beautiful, welcoming and uses wonderful products. I hesitate to say it lest there be less for me but I offer the deserving, Luna…

I get my hair cut with Vincent here and it always turns out great.
I am a guy with some complicated hair, but Vincent always seems to cut it exactly how I would like it cut.
I would recommend this place to anyone.

Tried this place for my first time and loved it. Vincent did my color and cut. He is very patient and did a good consultation on helping me decide what color would work best for me. I know when you go to a stylist for the first time it can be hard… especially when i have had different people color my hair. He is professional and I will be back. :)

I’ve been meaning to write this review since last August, but this is hands down the absolute best salon in Los Angeles.
I’m a natural platinum blonde, but I was traveling to the Middle East for 4 months, and it was highly recommended to me that I dye my hair dark (blonde = prostitute in the Middle East).
Martina switched me from my natural platinum blonde to a dark chestnut color. Although it was great for my time abroad, I really wanted to return to my natural color. Martina and her colleague Luna were lifesavers. Martina arranged to meet with me at the crack of dawn (before her afternoon flight to Germany) because I wanted to be semi-​blonde by Christmas. After she went on vacation, Luna took over and was AMAZING. A couple bleach washes and Luna’s beautiful highlights and a rinse, I’m almost 100% back to my color.
On top of all of that, the prices were incredibly reasonable. Again, BEST salon in LA!
From December to April, I’ve been completely transformed back to my original blonde!
Thank you Martina and Luna!

I found this wonderful salon and my stylist Jonathan about a year ago.
The experience here is always first rate.
I love the minimalist style to the place which is bright and clean.
I love the energy of the staff which is always positive, upbeat and drama free.
Martina (the owner) is always very warm and gracious.
Jonathan does a kick ass job with my hair each time and leaves me feeling in a good mood with a great haircut.

I am barber kind of fella, but it was time to step up my game. My run of getting zero low fade 3 on top was over! I came here…
The place is actually really nice! Great customer service, I liked it, But I was still nervous. I could still make it to We Getiin Faded with my dude Nasty (true reference)…
Luna came out and asked me what I was looking for. I said I did like to have my hair clean cut but something styling… To make a long story short, he gave this old man a fraux hawk…
Never felt fresher, cleaner, and with my new found confidence, I got so much tail that I threw out my back LOL …
LUNA IS AWESOME … STEP UP ALL YOU WANNA BE PLAYAS LOL

I found this place through Groupon and buoy was that a terrible experience! I’m already feeling sorry for writing this review. I rarely write bad reviews. Its a harsh world, we are all trying to make it through. And perhaps, precisely the reason, we should try to be really good at, what we try to sell.
I hailed from NYC two years ago and really missed my amazing gay hair stylist there. First of all, just as the two most important thing in a man’s life are a huge flat screen TV and their most favorite beer; for us women, you give us our favorite hair stylist and a favorite place to hang with our girls and we won’t complain about anything, including your dirty socks on the floor for weeks, may be months.
This place was my first hair experience in LA and I was completely disappointed by the attention, quality of service and effort that was put in my Brazilian blow out. The gay hair stylist, I forget his name– was not friendly (Gay unfriendly guy– now how many times does that happen?), he spent only 45 minutes on my Brazilian (really, even an hair amateur like me know it takes at least over an hour) and barely said thank you for the generous tip. Well, of course I already made up my mind never to show up there again. Worse was, the Brazilian didn’t even last for a month. Well, I was not surprised, but certainly disappointed, given the time he had spent on the hair.
You might get lucky. I guess I just didn’t have the pretty face for them to care for my hair!
In response to Martina’s comment:
1. My error is writing. It was livingsocial. I’ll be happy to email you the actual one if you’d like. And guess what, your salon’s deal was the first purchase I ever did on livingsocial and I had my doubts for livingsocial for a long time not sure who and how they allow business to colloborate with them.

2. Precisely the reason I thought it was weird. it was my first brazilian so I had no clue how will it be. But my friend had told me it should at least 1 ½ hour and I thought may be its a different brazilian.
3. I’m a business owner and know how to keep my customers happy even if they come back after a year. You have every chance to make right and say, we are sorry for the experience you had, please give us a chance to do it, your next Brazilian is on us. But as I mentioned above, perhaps your organization doesn’t really know how to provide EXCELLENT customer service.
3. I’m sorry some of your staff is not able to keep up to your high standards, but your comment of how you have no tolerance for it unfortunately hardly makes a difference to me unless there is action accompanied to those words.
4. Thanks for getting back to me. I do wish you good luck in your business. May be Orange Berlin is a great place (4 stars– not bad) but simply isn’t for me unless you are ready make a deliberate change.

Great place! It was recommended to me by a friend and I have to say that I really love this place. Martina is one of the nicest people I’ve met.

I have been getting my hair cut with Luna for several years now. He is a fantastic hair dresser. I have been trying to grow my hair long for years and Luna has always been the type to actually «trim» and never cut my locks. Recently, he did a subtle ombré on my hair and he did a great job keeping it sophisticated and not like a tub-​dipped dye job. He’s excellent with color and when you want to get wild with your style.
But that’s not all! Luna has done some great cuts for my husband and for my father, (who has gone to the same barber for 30 years) both satisfied customers.

I just moved here and everyone knows finding a new stylist can be a pain in the arse, especially in a place like LA. My friend recommended Orange Berlin so I checked it out and behold, there was a Unilocal coupon. As fate had it, I also called the same day and was able to get an appointment with Reyn (pronounced Ren) who is also my friend’s stylist.
Reyn did a great job, mixed the colors just like I wanted, gave me a nice trim and gave me bangs. I hadn’t been to a stylist in over 2 years since I chopped all my hair off and I felt like a new person after leaving the salon. As a side note, Reyn also told me if you use Henna in your hair and color it blond it will basically fizzle, that was good to know. He also went out and checked my meter for me and saved me from a ticket!
I’ll definitely be seeing Reyn again. It was a little on the expensive side but with the coupon it was worth it and I didn’t get highlights so my upkeep is pretty simple. There are also discounts for friends who go there for a first time, so I’m definitely spreading the word to my friends.
The salon was nice, it wasn’t crowded when I went but they offer you water, cocktails, tea, coffee and since I got bangs the standard trim every couple weeks. I really enjoyed the vibe there, Martina and Reyn were extremely knowledgable and very nice.

Nice people, but a lot of inconsistency from day to day regarding the quality of my cut.
Glad I tried, but would not return.

it’s a decent place. I’ve been there twice & booked w/​lifebooker. the services I got (blow dry & haircut) were discounted by 50 or 60%. the quality of service was good for the discounted price. certainly not worth the full price. I should mention the deals were for junior stylists. but you should know that if you just call & book & go there you may get a junior or a senior stylist for the same price (150 for haircut). the owner (martina)‘s prices are even higher. like a haircut for 175! boy i would be pissed of how ordinary the haircut was & i’d paid 150 for junior stylist!!!
doesn’t have a parking lot, so it’s street & meter parking only which sucks a bit

I had surgery on my hand and couldn’t wash my own hair so I booked an appointment to have a blow out here on St. Patty’s day. Luke was awesome! So cute and funny. He did a fantastic job with my super fine and straight hair — giving it volume and curl. LOVED it!
So much that I went back on Saturday for a second one, and it was even more amazing than the first one!
Thanks Luke! xoxo

Martina is the best hairdresser in all of LA.
She has been cutting my hair for the past four years and I could not imagine anyone else doing it. She is an amazing, talented hairdresser who loves to serve her clients cocktails and chats them up, while she does their hair. Martina is also the salon owner. Orange Berlin is not a typical pretentious LA salon. The salon has a great atmosphere, cool décor, great stylists and friendly staff. The first thing they do when you walk in is offer you a drink… I’ve definitely had a cocktail while waiting to get my hair cut.
If you’re looking for a new place I highly recommend checking out Orange Berlin. They offer very reasonable prices and excellent services. Get your hair done, throw back a cocktail, and enjoy the amazing décor and friendly staff.

My favorite stylist here (Cole) has left the salon. Very sad because I had my hair cut by Martina and it was very uneven and grew out weird.
I also have an offer that I purchased from
that’s good for $ 150 worth of services for $ 65. If you’re interested in taking this off my hands, send me a message.

I’m a guy who normally goes to a very old-​school barber shop. But every now and then I treat myself to a cut at Orange Berlin. They are extremely friendly and very good at what they do. Martina will somehow make you look a lot better than you really are. And you are treated like a king.
I don’t understand the negative feedback. I have to say, it is really suspicious that almost all of the 1 or 2 star reviews here are from people who have less than 5 total Unilocal reviews or don’t even have a profile image. That’s usually a a sign that a competitor is trying to lower the ratings with sham reviews. Just my 2 cents but I always look at how many reviews people have and the negative feedback here seems sort of fishy.
