“I had an amazing experience. The stylists are friendly and SO talented. I've found my new hair home!“
“Always a great cut and style! Chris is a great listener and you get exactly what you want. I enjoy every visit.“
“My hair gal was out of town and I needed a lift while she was gone. Dani and Dion stepped in to save the day! This is a beautiful modern studio in the heart of Mill Ave. These girls are so immensely talented and knowledgeable of their craft and the products they sell. I will send them clients forever. Thank you girls for taking care of me on short notice!!!!“
“Have you been searching for a new hair girl? I have and after months of looking I finally found Andrea and I couldn't be more pleased! She was personable, friendly and before she cut too much, she left enough to make small tweeks without making it too short. Her attention to detail impressed me. She gave me the color I wanted without having to bleach me! 10 out of 10, I recommend.“
“Words can't describe how I love my hair. Tabatha 's skills are unmatched. She uses quality products. She provides a personal customer experience with no waiting and servicing one customer at a time. Her salon is modern and clean. Thanks for a great hair cut.“
“I have been going to Monica for years and years. There is no one else that I would let cut my hair, let alone color it. She works with what I want and lets me know when it's a bad idea. Super quick too, I'm not in there for hours and hours even with my long hair. 10/10 would recommend to anyone, no matter what you want done, even a perm!“
“Best hairstylist I've ever gone to. She'll have to retire or move to Europe to get rid of me.Services: Bang trim“
“Dashonna has been doing my hair for over 10 yrs now. She grows my hair, no matter how many times I chop it off it grows back super fast. She’s been with me on my roller coaster ride of a journey with my hair from fro-hawks to neon red hair dye, all the way to finally locin it up. The past 2 years I started my final loc journey and she has been helping to cultivate them and I am in love with my hair.“
“Alex listened to what I was looking for and did a great job!! I'm so happy to have found this salon and Alex!!“

“Very friendly and respectful environment! I bring my son there along with myself an now my mother also goes an she loves it!“
“I had an amazing experience at Dry Bar! The staff was incredibly friendly and professional. My stylist truly understood my vision and executed it perfectly. The ambiance was welcoming and relaxing, making it a perfect spot to unwind while getting pampered. My hair looked stunning and lasted all day! I highly recommend Dry Bar for anyone looking for top-notch service and fabulous results. I'll definitely be coming back!“
“I started going to Urban Bloom Curl Studio in 2021 after I had to leave L.A. Traveling back to L.A. for my curly hair specialist was getting tiresome. I did A LOT of research because I am picky as hell about who touches my hair. I wanted to get on the Master Stylist/Owner's roster, but there was a 6-8 month wait. In the meantime she had her talented staff work on my hair while she supervised. I've been on the owner's roster now for a good 2 years and not letting my spot go. I relocated to Florida and then Georgia in the past 10 months and I fly back every couple of months to get my hair done. I refuse to go to anywhere but Urban Bloom, or my colorist in L.A. as a backup if Priscilla was ever unavailable. It took too long to find the best and I am not giving her up!
I was blonde for about 10+ years and Priscilla gave me my best blond years. Hair was healthy (well as healthy as a natural curly brunette can be going blonde) and she was always able to obtain the look I wanted. I can tell her what I want and she just "gets" it. I decided to go back to brunette recently and she did a great job taking me back. She even understood when I had to get over the initial shock of being blonde for all those years and going back to the dark side. I love being a brunette again!
They are honest about what can be achieved with your hair, or can't be achieved. When I wanted to go red Priscilla explained to me the maintenance involved. I decided it was too much and we chose another color. My point being is she isn't trying to "sell" you on anything. She works with you to find a color and style that works for your lifestyle.
The salon is big with lots of space. The aesthetics and vibe are relaxing and chill. The front desk communicate well and are always friendly. Urban Bloom is very transparent about their policies, which are reasonable and fair. I've never had a problem with my appointments and I fly from the south every 2-3 months for them!
For the people complaining about the price, you get what you pay for folks. You want to bargain shop with your hair, keep ruining your hair elsewhere. The owner has trained her stylists well so if the master stylist's rates aren't for you, go to one of the other amazing stylists. But don't complain about these women knowing their worth. I mean, do you like it when people want you to work for less than what you feel your talent or expertise is worth?
Parking is easy as there is a lot right out front. The salon is clean and well maintained. Priscilla has created a curl oasis. Thank you for taking care of my curls!
Why so long to post this review? Did you not read how long I had to wait to get on the owner's roster. I am so happy Priscilla and Urban Bloom are doing well, but the more people that now about them, the harder it is to get an appointment! So I was trying to keep them to myself for a while, but the secret is out so I might as well share my wonderful experience!
If you see typos, well I'm not writing for the LA Times and it is 5am on the east coast. Just bear with them!
