    I have been seeing Abe for over 25 years, and have referred him all of my family and friends. He is so talented, and makes me look and feel my best! I love that now he offers a mobile service, and the setup is so adorable and fun...making it super convenient to my busy lifestyle. I highly recommend him for hair, and will never trust anyone else with my hair! Love ABE!

    I have been seeing Melissa on and off for about 22 years now. The only time we were off was when she had moved away. She's one of the few people I trust with my hair and it's perfection every time. Hands down the best of the best. I am so so happy to have been able to reconnect with her. Now that her and Abe are mobile, it takes me about 7-10 mins to get to her location in Griffith park and it couldn't be easier. I love the work that she does and the kindness and creativity she brings to the table. I hope to never leave her trusted hands again!

    I've been getting my hair cut by Melissa since 2015. All different cuts, lengths, styles and colors (including teal blue) and it always comes out beautifully. There have been a few times when I've just asked her to change up my hair but I have no clue what I want, and she runs over different options with you. It still comes out wonderful. Not only does it look good initially, her attention to detail ensures my hair grows out beautifully as well. I constantly get compliments on my hair no matter what stage it's in. If there's something not quite right after the cut, no problem as she will adjust it to your liking. Melissa and I also gab away the hours as she is such a fun but kind person to talk to. Always a great experience whenever I get my hair cut!
