The Salon

Vincent The SALON is a dream come true. I’ve had multiple highly rated salon visits that have made me think Unilocal referrals were not very reliable. All that is history. Vincents — THE SALON-​next to Pacific Resident Theater is excellent!
He really knows how to cut hair so it looks and blends perfectly.
I’m 78 years. I was a hair model in my younger days. Finding a hairdresser who is really skilled today is a needle in a hay stack.
And my color looked great too! This alone is wonderful.
Then there is Vincent himself. He is a delightful guy –a walking historian of Marina del Rey and Venice.
How often do you get your hair done perfectly and learn about the area history?
Parking is very easy too.
What’s not to love?

Just got my hair colored and cut by Tacee. I’ve been going to her for awhile and she continues to amaze me. I’m not one to keep doing the same thing and am always trying different styles from super short to long. Tacee has listened to each request and helps my vision become reality and usually even better then I imagined. I now have my husband going to her and she’s even cut my 1yo daughter’s hair. And the cherry on top is this salon has parking, it’s amazing!

Deb is amazing! I saw her for the first time in December. She brought my hair back to life with a great cut and blond highlights. I am still getting compliments from family, friends, and coworkers! Thank you Deb!

I saw Lori at The Salon for the first time today, and loved everything about her and the environment. Plenty of parking, nice airy, spacious room with interesting recycled furniture, not too loud, comfy seats, and Lori, who was wonderful. Going back in a few weeks!

This review is for Tacee. I’ve had my hair pretty long for the past five years, and I finally decided it was time to go pretty short (like above the shoulder). I sent her a couple pictures of what I had in mind and she showed real enthusiasm for it! I’m very happy with my cut, it looks good air dried, and I can still kind put it up in a ponytail. What I really appreciated about Tacee is that she «got it» that I don’t really know how to style my own hair very well. While she was doing the cut, she made suggestions for how I could style it and showed me. She also suggested a couple of products I could buy without pressuring me to purchase anything right then and there. It was a really good experience overall and I would recommend her.

I went to see Lori for color after not just one, but a few friends recommended her. And I am so glad I did! She is really attentive to what I want and it always comes out perfectly! The first time I saw her I wanted a deep burgundy color. I got SO many compliments on the color. And then I changed it up to a balyage/​ombré and it looked perfect.
Also, The Salon is awesome. I’m so tired of those loud, busy salons where everyone looks frantic and running around. It is so laid-​back and relaxing and there is FREE PARKING. You never find that :)
Lori is amazing!

Just had my hair cut by Tacee, and she was absolutely first-​class. I could tell immediately that she knew what she was doing, and she certainly did not fail. I have not been this impressed with a hair cut in many a year. She was also great to talk to, and I don’t often have long conversations with my hairdressers (that’s just me), but she was naturally friendly without being ingratiating or phony, and I will definitely return. The salon has a great casual vibe, without making you feel intimidated, and I have a feeling that most of the stylists there are quite more than just capable, certainly top drawer. But again, I have nothing but good things to say about Tacee at The Salon in Venice!

Overall Lori’s service was great! She was personable and very prompt at responding. I do like how my hair turned out in terms of length and softness, but I really wanted a straight hair look and the bangs were cut a bit too short for my liking. I would def recommend Lori, but one thing for sure is know exactly what you want and how. I’m a bit on the shy side so I didn’t know how to bring up that I wanted a different look than the look she gave me. Overall great service and great haircut, just wish it turned out exactly how I had hoped! It’s hardly straight… I commend Lori for being so patient with my long thick hair, I think by the time she got to the straightening she was tired! Lol

I have been getting my hair done by Vincent since the mid nineties. Vincent is a MASTER hairdresser, stylist and colorist. He is great with all types of hair especially BLONDES. My hair always looks beautiful, fresh and very natural — it never looks highlighted. I can usually go 6 – 8 weeks in-​between appointments.
Vincent never overbooks his appointments either, he’s always on time, and I always have his full attention. I never have to worry about getting out on time. I am never there longer than an hour to an hour and 15 minutes.
His salon is meticulous too, with ample parking.
If you want your hair to look gorgeous and you want a few laughs, you must call Vincent. He is one of a kind and I am so happy that I found him.

I followed Deb Floyd from Killer hair here and love the new spot. It’s in a cute area, and the salon is beautifully decorated.
Deb does a fantastic job. If I show her a picture of what I have in mind she can perfectly replicate it. I trusted her to give me bangs, and have kept them for a record length of time (going on eight months).
Most recently, I went in for balayage. Deb not only did a great job matching color to my pictures and skin tone, but was great at explaining the process for me, as it was my first real foray into coloring. I can’t recommend her enough.

I have been going to the Salon for over 20 years! Vincent, the owner, is the best colorist and I love how he cuts my hair!!!
The Salon itself is charming… not pretentious… Great parking!
Vincent makes me feel like a million bucks when I leave!

Followed Lori L. Hair Color Chemist here! Duh.
(I would follow Lori anywhere! & once you sit in her chair you will too!)
Loveee this location!
Super cute, spacious, and adorable!
When I realized the Salon was on Venice I shuddered thinking about parking… but there’s a huge free parking lot! Ultimate Venice win.
Can’t rave about Lori enough!
You can book with her online at
Check out her personal Unilocal page too!
Honestly, once you go Lori… you’ll never go anywhere else.
I promise you that whatever it is you’re looking for in regards to coloring your hair: Lori will not only deliver but she’ll surpass your expectations and leave you feeling safe and feeling beautiful. Everyone knows the fear of trusting your hair with someone new, but let these Unilocal reviews reassure you: Lori is THE best for hair color. She can darken or lighten your hair, paint on a balayage, seamlessly blend and melt colors while simultaneously protecting the health of your hair.
Lori Lori Lori!
Check her out at The Salon!

This was my first time visting «The Salon“and I have to say it was a great experience! Deb took great care of me and is truly knowledgeable and takes a sincere interest in givng you the style and look you want. Spacious and comfortable space with a nice breeze flowing thru it. A bit hidden but fairly easy to find and well worth the drive to the west side for me. Competitive in price ($ 30) for a men’s cut and wash. I really can’t say enough at how pleased I am with my cut and style and Deb. I’ll be back for sure!

I live in the NoHo area and was getting ready to go see my hairstylist guru, Lori, in Venice at The Salon. Someone asked me why I was driving all the way to Venice to get my hair done and the answer was one word… Lori. I started going to Lori when she was at Killer Salon and then followed her over to her awesome new space at The Salon. Lori is simply an amazing stylist and does a great job on my hair color every time I have gone to her. She gets it right EVERY time. So why do I drive to Venice to get my hair done? Lori… and perhaps the wonderful glass of wine that she serves me. :-)

Yesterday was the first time at this place but I followed Deb Floyd there. She use to be at Killer Hair but I loved her style and the way she cut and colored my hair.
She is amazing, understanding, and easy going. I sent her a picture the day before asking her whether the ombré I wanted would work on me.
I walked in the next day and asked me a slew of questions in order to make sure she understood what I wanted and how it would look on my hair. She will not rest until it looks just right and always has great suggestions about what to do next. She is honest and genuine and is passionate about what she does.
I highly recommend her and would to anyone who asked.

I have followed Lori from Killer Hair to The Salon and I absolutely love how she does my hair! She is amazing with color and cuts and makes your hair look and feel amazing. I have never felt better about my hair and love the blonde ombré she gave me. Definitely recommend!

Amy is an amazingly talented stylist.
I was referred to her by a friend and now do not mind driving from Koreatown to get my hair done by her!
She is very attentive to my requests and always does a fabulous job that surpasses my expectations.

I followed Lori from Killer Hair to this salon and I highly recommend her! She’s great for both cuts and color and her prices are fantastic! If you want beautiful hair without a $ 300 price tag, don’t go anywhere else.

Went into The Salon begging to get my hair done that week, and as many of the stylists were booked well in advance, I managed to get an appointment the next morning with Amy who was fantastic! She was so sweet and listened to everything I described as to what I wanted for highlights. Coming from San Diego, I was expecting to pay more to have my hair done in LA, however Amy was affordable and worked with my price range. Highly recommend her for all you blondes out there!
