Belle Beauty Salon

Betty is one of the only people I trust to do my hair.
Naturally I have extremely curly hair. no one has been able to do the magic on my hair that Betty does. I have gotten Brazillion blowouts at other salons and my hair would never last. Betty’s unique method leaves my hair silky, sleek, beautiful and healthy. She is very precise about her work and makes sure every bit of hair is properly undergoing the Brazillion treatment.
She did an amazing job on my color as well. I went from dark brown to blonde and she listened to exactly what I wanted and my hair didn’t get damaged.
She is a wonderful positive energy, very welcoming, clean and has great prices.
She is very meticulous about her work and is a perfectionist. I definitely recommend!!!

Second time patron and very satisfied. I have short, thin hair and their attention to detail always makes my hair look impeccable!

I was in a bind & didn’t have time to go see my regular stylist across town for a haircut before a big meeting. They squeezed me in & Betty did a great job! Also her assistant gave me the most amazing shampoo experience with a head massage! Would def return & I’m picky about my hair.

I just moved to LA in June, I was driving over 2 hours to my old stylist because I was so scared to have someone else do my hair, finally after 4 month of out grow i couldn’t take it anymore, I had seen a salon right next to my apartment and deiced to give it a try. When I called to make an appointment I was hoping to get in right away but I didn’t think it was going to be possible, Betty (owner) answered the phone and got me right in that next evening… When I went in to my appointment Betty was wonderful, she spent a lot of time consulting on my hair to figure out what I wanted and what would look good on me. Betty stayed so late making sure my hair was perfect. I am beyond happy with this salon and Betty!

I found this salon here, on Unilocal.I was looking for a place to correct the color and hopefully try to fix a horrible haircut I had received a few months earlier. I had to sit in the salon for a while as she finished up another client. Betty was very friendly and seemed to listen to what I was saying. I told her my hair had been bleached and I did not want to be blonde but more my natural light brown. In the middle of my appointment someone else had walked in with an appointment. It was clear that she overbooks. She was very chatty and made several questionable remarks about various ethnic groups and clients. She kept bragging that she does the hair of playboy models, that’s great but not really the vibe I was looking for. As she was taking the foils out I could tell she messed up, all of a sudden she asked her assistant to rush and get some color and kept saying «you wanted to be blonde, right?» Um, no, I wanted the opposite! It was horrible. She did fine with the cut but I was honest and told her I hated the color. She told me to give it a week (because «everyone wants to be blonde» and «my husband would love it»), if I didn’t like it, I could come back and she would fix it. I did come back and she didn’t charge me. She was overbooked again. The «fix» was sufficient but faded pretty quickly. There was also a giant chunk of blonde in the back that looked ridiculous. The valet, who is not there before 5pm, also came in both times and harassed me. There are no signs about parking but once his shift starts, you better get out of the lot, even with a full head of foils. She obviously has ongoing issues with him but it was pretty rude.

I hate to write something negative, but I found this salon through Unilocal and now I feel obliged to describe my first time experience there.
I had an appointment scheduled for a full hair color. When I came in (on time) nobody even greeted me. I stood around perplexed for about 10 minutes until Betty came up to me and introduced herself.
I showed her the picture of the color I want and she proceeded with my hair. The after-​color wasn’t right on, it was too coppery, although I explicitly repeated that I want «espresso», «rich dark chocolate» color. My roots (about 1″ long) turned out way lighter than the rest of my hair.
Her assistant washed my hair after coloring. Barely massaging, as though I’m getting a hair wash by my 96 y.o. gramma, I was left with patches of dye all around my temples, as well as the entire hair line. The salon is NOT WELL LIT, aside from being FILTHY and very outdated.
Now comes the worst part: two weeks into service my color is completely faded, my hair is static, dry, very hard to manage and it always tangles! NIGHTMARE! I never experienced this before and I assume it happened because of the cheap product this salon uses.
Bad bad bad! Come on guys, get you act together! Dirty salon that hasn’t seen renovation since the 80s, dark and outdated! But most importantly, start using quality products on your customers!
Def not worth $ 110 + $ 20 tip I paid. Never again.

Omg Betty is amazing!!! I’ve never ever had ombré before and was so picky when I met with her… She did so good. She listened to me, was super sweet and everyone has complimented me on my hair. I love love love it!!! I barely write reviews unless I love or hate them. I will 100% be going back to Betty. Thank you Belle!

Betty is so kind! But more importantly, she definitely has a sixth sense about how hair should look. I have «long-​hair anxiety» and am always so nervous whenever I receive services for my hair, especially trimming my bangs. However, Betty was very reassuring and offered advice and promised me that it’ll look good. She never got impatient with my anxiousness and questions. You can tell she’s had years of experience. I went in for a haircut and ombré and in my own opinion… it came out amazing! The layers of color flowed into the next, and overall it looks like a very smooth ombré :)
She noticed that I was studying for school, so she offered me as much coffee as I needed!
The price is what you’d expect for quality salon services.
She also answers phone calls and texts ASAP and is so helpful with fitting you into her busy schedule. I suggest making an appointment at least 2 weeks ahead.

Today I’ve got my hair done by Betty. She is very sweet and professional !! It is my first ombré ever and I love it !! Will definitely come back !!!

BEA is the best! I came in last minute on a Sat. night and she got me an appt. to do a blow-​dry, style and up-​do. She only charged me $ 45.00…AMAZING PRICE AND a quality job. My hairstyle did not come out of place all night and it easily could have if she did a bad job… but it was so well done and stayed in place… and was not too tight on my head… Flowed beautifully. BEA is the best. I’ll definately be back. Her number is 760−485−1629 and she is super reliable, creative and the nicest person!

Alright, this is a warning that the following review will be a little bit dramatic but 100% true.
Let me just begin by saying this: BETTY IS A M***F***** HERO. Please, somebody give her a medal!!!
After a long night of crying myself to sleep because I had just spent $ 200 getting THE WORST ombré job on this planet (I looked like I was wearing a black bowl cut), I seriously contemplated the following:
1) Dying my hair back to black (and wasting a ton of money)
2) Driving 2 hours back to the previous salon to demand they re-​do it (Just. NO.)
3) Sulk in my room with a towel wrapped around my head til my hair grew out (seemed like a good idea at the time)
Since I couldn’t sleep and it was 7am, I decided I couldn’t just go down without a fight, especially with an impending social event coming up. I started calling salons (not sure why, no one was opened yet). I was just hoping for a miracle.
I called Belle Salon at 7am, no reply– didn’t even leave a message, cuz I thought «Why bother, everything is HOPELESS».
At 8am, I get a call back, and on the other end, I heard the voice of an angel (aka. Betty).
She saw my missed call and asked what service I needed. I immediately told her that I was in the middle of a hair catastrophe and I need it fixed ASAP! So she booked me her earliest appointment. Later I found out she had only gotten 2 hours of sleep and it was supposed to be her day off. God bless you Betty.
OKAY everyone. This lady knows what she’s doing. She took one look at my hair and it was like we made some telepathic connection. Over the course of an hour and half she performed a miracle and made my ghastly looking hair into something totally new. I could, once again, look into the mirror without an intense feeling of hatred.
Not only is Betty a skilled professional, but she’s also a doll to talk to. She saved the day for me, possibly saved me a lot more than that. I would give her 10 stars if I could. Before and after pic posted.
(Yeah, I know the before pic doesn’t look THAT bad, but from the front, it looked horrendous– like I said before, the black bangs and nonexistent black to blonde transition created an illusion of having a bowl cut.)

I hate to add a negative review to an otherwise popular place… but I am completely disappointed in my color job here.
I asked for a subtle ombré, something nice to add color but still work appropriate. Ombré looks good on my curls, and the reviews for Betty were stellar.
And Betty was most certainly a sweet person, but I’m unhappy with my work. My hair looks like someone gave me highlights to the bottom half of my hair. The color is WAY stronger than I wanted. I have paid much less for much better.
In addition to the color, the place is not very welcoming. If you walk in on the street side, you walk into a strange landing, where you can find the back door of the salon. In my case, I wandered in, where there was no one to be found except Betty in the back corner giving someone highlights while she ate and sat on a laptop. I stood there for a few minutes while they ignored me. Once we got going Betty was nice but chatty, and the tea was a kind gesture. Overall, 1 star for Betty, 0 stars for my destroyed hair.

I absolutely love my new hairstyle. Betty is amazing, kind, and passionate. She did a great job on my hair. I strongly recommend this salon!!!

I Loved Betty’s ombré and hair cut.
But the salon is closed now? Her phone goes straight to voicemail and her salon looks like its closed. Does anyone know whats going on?

I came here after having read all of these excellent reviews and left with a 5 star experience of my own.
Betty is very a passionate hair stylist who really prioritizes the look that you want while also offering a variety of helpful suggestions on how to elevate that look. I came in hoping to dye my hair with an ombré red. She first went over a few options with me and then ended up mixing a very beautiful red color to use as my base. Throughout the session, she and her assistant exuded energy and positivity and paid close attention to styling detail while sharing stories that constantly made me laugh. She also puts in an enormous amount of dedication to her work. While the salon closes at 8PM, she stayed after to work on my hair until much later. She’s reflected to me on times where she would stay at the salon until 2AM styling some of her customer’s hair! Price was also very affordable, cheaper than many other salon options that I looked up.
Overall she blended the dye beautifully, and I’ve never seen a more unique and beautiful red color on any hair :) It definitely made one of my first bold styling statements worthwhile and expressive!
Thanks, Betty!
Parking is valet — complimentary first 45 minutes. Valet doesn’t apply on Sundays!

For a couple of days after I got a horrible ombré at another salon, I tried to be okay with it. I tried to be positive and tell myself maybe I can live with it for a while. The color was too orange for my skin tone but I told myself maybe this isn’t too bad.
…Nope. One morning I woke up, saw my hair, got upset, and searched on Unilocal for an attentive stylist who listens to your needs and wants.
I found Belle salon and decided to give it a try. I asked Betty to turn it to ashy-​blonde. She was attentive, thorough, honest about the process and fun to talk to! It was an evening appointment, and she even let me order food and eat it while my hair was getting done. Overall, I think she did a great job with my hair and customer service (hot tea!) and I walked out feeling so relieved that I wouldn’t wake up another day feeling and looking horrible.
Thank you Betty. :)

I came here today to get my hair colored cut and highlights
I had to go to work at 6.30 and I came at 3. So we just had 3 hours to do all of that
I had no idea how I want my hair to be only some pictures and I showed them to my stylists. She did great job
They even gave me cheesecake and coffee while they see me bored. I wasn’t actually bored but seemed like that
Betty was my stylist. Ao sweet, caring, talented and multitasked.
She gave me best service ever in 3 hours with reasonable price and fun environment
I use Unilocal a lot to find places but normally don’t write reviews but I had to write it for this one because I am so impressed.
Absolutely loved it and will come back again.

Hit and miss. I’ve come here a couple of times and I get a simple trim. I brought my boyfriend in last time I went and he ended up looking like a Hk celebrity, which was not desired. The prices are reasonable and the haircuts are decent but I’d rather pay more for better.

I LOVE my new ombré. Exactly what I was wanting! Had gotten a horrible attempt at an ombré at another salon, huge mistake not going to Betty. Betty thank you! 100% satisfied!

Since I moved in this area I decided to find someone close by to get a hair cut. Lucky me, I saw this place across the street and great reviews made me come by. I’m glad I did. Betty who’s the owner here, is so welcoming and pleasant to be around. So humble and fat pace lady. Knows what she doing and what’s more impressive is how her clients greeted her.
After i sat down for color and was waiting for my time. Few ppl walked in who appeared to be her regular clients, they had gifts for her and her staff. It felt like Santa came early :). Everyone was so nice to each other.
Attitude and good vibe has a great impact on me. I love the attitude here, every client is a priority. No wonder they are 5 stars.
I haven’t even gotten a hair cut yet and I already rated this place a five.

BETTTY! thank you so much for my ombré!
Not only was she reasonably priced, but she really does what you ask her to. Last year I walked into an expensive hair salon in Beverly Hills to get an ombré done and I was scarred from that experience. that last made my hair look disgusting!
I was spontaneous about getting my hair done the same-​day, but I took the chance with BETTY! especially because her Unilocal reviews were all impressive!
SHE DID EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED. SHES PSYCHIC. LOVE HER! thanks Betty.

Wow. Where to begin. Let’s start with the mere fact that I have not made any drastic changes to my hair, EVER! I did an extensive amount of research prior to my consultation with Josephine on numerous stylists and salons within the Santa Monica, Beverly Hills area/​but ended up at Belle.
I give this salon, and more importantly Josephine my hair stylist a five star review and here’s why:
1. Excellent consultation with input from her end (through, knowledge/​expertise). However, Josephine is not overbearing she was actually willing to listen to my thoughts and ideas as well.
2. AMAZING PRICE! Especially for first time customers!
Day of appointment experience:
3. Fresh tea and breakfast cake while she does my hair. Gee, thanks! I needed that!
4. Consistently asks for input and comfort level, ensuring that I am satisfied at all times.
5. Takes her time and does NOT by any means rush through the process.
6. Personable individual (Josephine) — a joy to spend time with! One of the happiest, funniest, most vibrant people I’ve met in LA.
7. Perfectionist! Although this was my first time getting my hair colored (both balyage and ombré), she was the one who willingly spent nearly five hours perfecting my hair tone; ensuring each section of my hair is flawless! That’s commendable!
I can continue to express both my graditude and appreciation for Josephine but I think this should suffice for now.
Here’s to Eating, Loving, and Feeling GREAT Unilocalers!
(Thanks Josephine) xxx
