What a great neighborhood salon in the heart of Silverlake! My frizzy, lifeless mane desperately needed a makeover. When people verbally tell you need to cut your ends, it's a good idea take heed. Robby gave me a protein hair treatment mask and layered cut with great movement and body while Eduardo gave me a beautiful toffee balayage. Thoroughly loved the new look and my hair felt so healthy after completion. It seemed like everyone who left their salon looked and felt amazing! Great and thoughtful hair advice provided by all the hair stylists. Great cruelty free hair product lines. Aesthetic salon in a small strip mall with parking.Thank you Robby and Eduardo for giving me a wonderful new look for the New Year and for my birthday! Get yer hair did hurrr! More...

I was looking for something new...had a couple pics of styles I thought were cool and Jennifer C. knew how to make the styles work for my hair type.  I left with a complete makeover and it hit the spot!  If you just want a trim/touch up (like I have had at other times) she can do that too.  For me this time it was all about a new year and a new look.  My thanks to Jennifer for listening to my interests and communicating so well with me about what my hair could do.  The space is so lovely too...great energy and openness.  Highly recommended!

yelp had a 10% deal for first time clients so i booked an appointment the day after thanksgiving at 2pm with tauhid. i'm really hesistant in spending so much money on a haircut but i was getting desperate to get a great haircut. with the promo, it was $67 without tip so i was like ok i really hope this will go well.tauhid was so patient in listening and cutting my hair to what i wanted every step of the way. he kept encouraging me to let him know if it was ok or if i needed more. since it was after the holiday, it wasn't very busy so he spent 1.5 hours with me and in the end, i am soo satisfied with my hair. for once. he knew exactly what i meant and even offered to style it a little for no extra charge in a lived in wave look. you may think, oh he's a junior stylist, i'd rather book with a senior-- but no, he was an expert and so patient and so nice! i usually always regret my haircuts but not this one. even with it being more expensive than what i am used to, i am so happy i did it. it looks exactly how i want it to look. a little bit 70's with a grown out center part bang that i can still  tuck behind my ears, blunt but with some weight removed. i would definitely get my hair cut with tauhid again! he also gave me two cards to share with friends for 20% on any service they'd like to get done with him.

Krista at Gamine Beauty is amazing. Finding a new hairstylist can be such a stressful thing to do-- but my first cut/color with her was awesome. The whole experience was great. The salon had easy parking and was relaxing. Krista made me feel right at home and the couple hours I spent in her chair flew by. She did a beautiful balayage on my hair, painting in the perfect highlights. She found the perfect shade of purple that I was looking for and I walked out feeling amazing.  Everyone that I dealt with while I was there was kind and accommodating. You can tell they all care about the salon and take pride in their work. More...

This is the hair studio I've been searching for for the last 15 years I have been in LA! Jennifer brought my boring hair back to life with an amazing haircut that looks good even if I don't style it, go to the gym and get sweaty with it, sleep on it, blow dry, air dry, wear it up or down.

Robby is magic! I live in Silver Lake (have for a long time) and on a whim looked up this place. My hair was starting to become a wild dry wavy nest. I chose Robby after looking at his Instagram. The cuts and styles were exactly what I was going for. He was super attentive and really kind. He checked in with me every step of the way and took his time making sure I was happy. Overall I left feeling extremely satisfied and a few pounds in hair lighter. Usually I approach haircuts with a lot of trepidation but I'm actually excited for my next visit. The salon itself is also really clean and nice. More...

I've lived in LA for 12 years and never gone to the same hair salon twice. Before my wedding, I got my hair cut by Sterling, and then a week later, eyebrows and mini highlights from Jennifer, and both times I left feeling like, "these people get me. " They're true experts/artists, and they left me feeling like a new woman. It went so well that I even sent my now husband to get his hair cut and beard shaped, and he came home looking great too! For the first time, I can definitely say I'll return! More...

I'm so glad I found Gamine beauty. Sterling is a precision cutter who'd put Vidal Sassoon himself to shame. They play punk rock; none of this hair salon from frou musack and that counter cultural appreciation shows on every head of hair that walks out. Clients are a self selected crowd from the Silver Lake / Echo Park / Koreatown environs. Sterling gave me a precision bob with platinum hair and deep blue tips. I have never felt so confident in my hair as an expression of my individuality. I get compliments everywhere I go. I have also gotten superb haircuts from Robby and Tahib does my blondeing to amazing effect - the best balayage I've ever had. LA salons are supposed to be so cut throat and expensive. Yet, on my first try, I found my people - reminiscing about art school and blasting The Buzzcocks, with very reasonable fees. I'm so lucky to have found them. More...

I don't usually write reviews but Gamine Beauty truly deserves this!! I went in about a month ago for a pixie cut. I had never ever cut my hair that drastically and was extremely nervous. I called to inquire about setting up an appointment and the same day I was able to get a consultation with Sterling. When meeting with him he really listened while I expressed my concerns and answered all of my questions. He assured me and totally gave me the confidence to go through with it. The next morning I had an appointment. As soon as I walked in for my appointment I was offered coffee with a warm welcome. Parking is great by the way. I started with a wash and then straight to cutting. I have really curly hair. He cut it little by little and really took his time to see how my hair would naturally lay. He was so meticulous and so detailed. It's the best hair cut I've ever received!! He really is a pixie cut genius!!  He paid attention to the shape of my face and really made sure to get it right. After the cut, he spent time with me on how to style it. Took his time playing with the cut to see what looked best. I brought in a hair product I wanted to try and he used it. After not liking how the product made my hair, he rinsed my hair out and recommended a different one. Overall, amazing experience at this salon with a very talented and amazing stylist. Never letting anyone touch my hair again!! More...

My haircut/color is so cute and funky, and most importantly, fits my face and my low maintenance style!

I hardly ever write yelp reviews but I must leave a shout out to Robby for doing such a wonderful job. He took the time to listen to what I wanted to achieve with my haircut, while also being meticulous and creative in his craft. I have thick hair that I rarely have time to style day to day, and so with the wrong haircut it can look heavy and shapeless. Robby was very thoughtful in considering how my hair naturally falls, making the end result look effortless and light. Thank you! More...

I have never walked out of a salon feeling soooooo happy about my new hair. I took a chance with coming here for a cut because I've never been here before. (Although the ratings and pics of client's hair were a huge factor in the choosing of this place.) I was looking for a place that actually cut hair because it seems like most salons around where I live just showcase the balayage and ombré dye jobs so I knew I had to go somewhere legit. Anthony was my stylist! He did such an amazing job!! My hair was exactlyyy how I wanted it. I really appreciated his hospitality as well the times he asked me if the layers looked okay/my bangs were at a good length. Before we even got started with anything, we talked about the look I was going for. There is a huge difference in having your hair cut by people who actually take the time to understand what you want versus people who just cut it to their own taste.If you're thinking about coming here, don't think... just GO!! :DPlus, their magazine selection is perfect.
