Not your mother's hair dresser! 12/2/2009

About 2 yrs ago I was desperately looking for a new hair stylist. After several mediocre and occasionally even disappointing, yet oh-so-expensive experiences, at some of the poshest BH salons, I went on CitySearch to see if I could find someone who has a ton of great reviews, is geographically desirable, and hopefully also reasonably priced. Carlos with his OVER 50 FIVE STARS ONLY REVIEWS caught my attention. I called him for an appointment right away – and the rest is history. This guy has a real talent! Never before have my golden highlights looked so perfect, and the best part is: they last and last and last!! Somehow he manages to make the highlights look so natural (but not invisible! I once had a stylist who wouldn’t stop bragging about her “natural highlights”, while I wished that they would be a little less natural, so I could actually see what I had just spent $350 on...), so when my brown roots grow in, they just blend nicely with the “goldilocks” and there are never any harsh lines, and I can easily wait 2-3 months between appointments. Besides being a wizard with color and scissors, I love it that Carlos never ignores my wishes, and also that he doesn’t shy away from making some suggestions. Carlos could be called a “holistic” hair stylist ?. He doesn’t just work with your hair but pays attention to the “whole you” (shape of face, body type, lifestyle) to ensure that when you walk out of the salon you look amazing and feel euphoric!!! I think the reason why Carlos is able to keep his prices sensible is because the ambiance at The Cottage, while clean and comfy is not over the top. In some other, much pricier, salons I have had the feeling that the charges are so high not because the stylist is super-amazing but because the rent is sky-high due to the interior design and address… The Cottage is faultless, everyone who works there is friendly, and you pay for the quality of work. Last but not least - Carlos is the nicest guy ever. Sweet and sincere. And I must add something that to me is so important, in case there are others like me out there: Carlos doesn’t do dim nonstop chit-chat. He is not one of them who get distracted by their own voice and chop off more and more hair while gossiping (yes, it’s happened to me BC (Before Carlos) more than once.) Pros: Best color, highlights, cut more

Great cut + color! 10/13/2009

Carlos is great with coloring and trendy cuts! Gave my boyfriend's dirty blond hair a new spiced up look by putting a two-toned highlight. Thanks for getting us the appointment so quickly. I was so worried he would shave all his hair off last week!! :) Pros: Good eyes for great color Cons: Nothing more

The Man! 7/30/2009

Carlos is an excellent stylist. He's been cutting my hair for 10 years and I'll make him continue to do so until his withered fingers fall off. He's a great stylist who truly understands how to accentuate his clients' best features. Whether it's a cut or a color, you'll look great under his care. An added bonus is his flexibility. He works hard to ensure that he's available to his clients. Pros: Best cut & color in town more

Simply the best! 7/23/2009

Carlos has been my stylist for about 5 years now and I absolutely love him! I always get compliments on my hair, especially color, he is really great with that. One time a girl passing me on a bike even stopped and turned around to tell me how much she liked my color (it was a gorgeous copper). I would definitely highly recommend Carlos, and I already got a couple of my friends switch over to him from their own stylists. Pros: pleasant, attentive, great with color Cons: none! more

I highly recommend Carlos. 7/22/2009

I made the mistake of dying my own hair one week before I was going to a friend's wedding. Definitely, my hair was ….“Blond/green”. I made a consultation with Carlos and I decided to make one appointment for the next day (He was awesome since the first consultation!!). He spent almost three hours in my hair. He fixed my hair and did highlights and haircut. I loved both!!!! I left the salon feeling much better!!!! I had an extremely pleased experience. After that, I had already recommended him to my friends and I’m his client for almost two years. Carlos rocks!!!! I highly recommend him! Pros: Best highlights and cut in LA! more

I miss Carlos! 7/8/2009

What can I say? My hair has never been the same since I left LA and my good friend Carlos. Carlos is attentive, easy to talk to--and most of all incredibly talented. The best part is, I found out about him from all the rave reviews he has on Citysearch. Believe them! You will not regret it. Pros: best cut and color EVER! more

Carlos is Amazing! 7/8/2009

Carlos always gets right back to you, appointments are simple and easy to make. The salon is comfortable, centrally located in a great area and the people at the salon are the nicest. I always feel like I'm his only customer when I'm in his chair. Incredible hair every time!! Pros: Carlos is talented, friendly, intuitive and has a great eye. Cons: none really - he's amazing. more

The best highlights and cut in Los Angeles! 6/25/2009

I have been getting my hair cut and highlighted by Carlos for the past few years. He has always done an amazing job especially considering I may have some of the thickest hair in the world;c) I am always getting compliments on my highlights and asked where I get my hair done. I always refer them to my good friend Carlos because I know he will do a fantastic job! Pros: great haircut, perfect color and fun conversation! more

Carlos is the best!! 11/21/2008

I love Carlos, always professional, never a bad cut. Plus he has a great personality which always helps. Pros: I always leave the salon in the BEST MOOD. Cons: Meter parking on Robertson can be difficult. more

Strongly recommended 10/12/2008

I found Carlos on city search and was so happy with my experience. His coloring was amazing and it was the first time I've truly loved the way my hair turned out. The salon was great and everyone was really friendly. Carlos is so nice and definitely knows his stuff. I told him to do what he wants and I'm glad I did. Having gone to many expensive salons and got mediocre service this was just the opposite. His prices are so reasonable and his coloring was much better than the others I've been to! Definitely recommend him!! Pros: great service, great coloring, great prices more

Carlos is FANTASTIC. No, really. He is. 10/10/2008

What a great hair cut I got! I went to Carlos because of the reviews I found on citysearch, and I was not disappointed. I think my hair is difficult to do a good job on because I usually get bad hair cuts, and I go to pretty nice places. But Carlos listened to what I wanted, told me what he was thinking and what he was going to do, and gave me a great shape of hair. He was friendly, wasn't at all mad that I was late, and easily represented the easy going but busy atmosphere of the salon. The thing is though, he did a good job of styling my hair at the end, which I could not successfully pull off at home, it basically needed to be a little shorter. I called him after it had already been a couple days, and he had me come in so that he could take a little more off. He was totally cool about it and just as friendly as he was before. He didn't charge me, of course, and I practically had to stick the tip into his hand to get him to take just a little something for his time. And, my hair looked amazing! $55 for a haircut is a little pricey for me, but not when I get something that looks as good as what he did. I can't wait til my hair grows out and I need another haircut, because it feels SO GOOD when he's done with you and sends you off into the world looking so damn good! DO NOT GO TO THIS STYLIST IF YOU WANT A BAD HAIR CUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, I just wanted to put something in all caps followed by an army of exclamation points. Pros: Awesome stylist, comfortable atmosphere. Cons: Its not free. Wouldn't THAT be cool? more

Great haircuts - every time! 9/24/2008

I've been a client of Carlos' for a few years now and I can honestly say that I have never been disappointed. He always seems to know how to cut my hair (which can be quite unruly sometimes). And I trust him completely. If I don't know what I want, I defer to him and he gives me something fantastic. And I never have the problem of it not looking as good the next day when I style it myself. I went to a lot of (overpriced) stylists in L.A. until I found Carlos and never felt I got my money's worth. That all changed once I found Carlos - great haircuts & coloring at a reasonable price! Pros: reasonable pricing, great haircuts more

First class flights to LA- for first class cuts from Carlos~ 9/5/2008

I have to admit the first time Carlos and I met was a total fluke. I happened to be having a martini at the Abby on Santa Monica and saw this amazing guy with a beautiful figure. No, it wasn't Carlos,although Carlos is a very handsome young man,it happened to be one of his clients who works at the Abby. Wow,what an amazing hair cut. I had to ask "Where did you get your hair cut?".The young man responded back to me in shock that i was asking him this crazy question..but didn't hesitate to give me directions to where the Cottage was, and to ask for Carlos. I immediately tossed back my martini and went in search for this place called the cottage, to find the hair stylist I would end up becoming best friends with and having my hair styled and cut from forever. I actually lived in Miami at the time and was on vacation in LA trying to pick up guys. Well--with the hair I was slinging around--no one wanted to talk to me....BUT I finally found the Cottage and also Carlos.He greeted me with open arms--even though I am sure he was thinking-WOW-what a messed up hair cut I had!!!He sat me down with a glass of water and a magazine while he managed to squeeze me in during one of his color treatments he was doing on a petite yet fabulous lady.Oh boy-was I ready for this cut. My hair was kinda shaggy-no direction-and very hard to maintain.I was in need of a cut that was above the rest..And I certainly got it. Carlos not only gave me a fabulous hair cut..but he also introduced me to a wonderful Machine that I use almost every day.THE FLAT IRON:) Oh-How magically it turned my hair from southern hick boy, into Hot LA Stud! Thank you Carlos--You are not only a wonderful hair stylist, but also have become a wonderful friend. If anyone is tired of there old hair cut, nasty attitude salon, or just want to try something new..I would highly recommend Carlos at the Cottage as my only suggestion. Good luck on your venture finding the cottage and have a very Happy Hair day~ Antonio Pros: Very easy to find, total celebrity atmoshpher, and wonderful personalities from everyone more

Phenomenal Experience at a Reasonable Price 9/5/2008

I strongly recommend going to Carlos for your hair-cutting & styling needs. Unlike most stylists out there, Carlos is extremely warm and friendly. He listens to your needs, and determines the best strategy to get you the look you want. In additional to the pleasant atmosphere, Carlos does not charge an ?arm & a leg?. He is very affordable and reasonable. You will be impressed with his skills. My hair has never looked better. Thanks Carlos?. Pros: Great service more

Carlos will never disappoint - he is the best - keeps you looking young and hip! 9/4/2008

My daughter brought me to Carlos 10 years ago after I had complained about my dated hairstyle. I needed something new and different so let Carlos give me a new style. I have been having him style my hair ever since then and it looks fabulous and very youthful. I have a short haircut and when he cuts my hair, he is very confident and gives the client the feeling that he knows what he is doing. I have to travel to The Cottage from the South Bay area which is an hour long drive, but it is worth it. Thank you, Carlos!!! more

Not just in LA - Best cut and colorist in San Francisco Bay Area/Silicon Valley!!! 9/3/2008

Carlos is a godsend for hair. I found him a year ago after deciding that I needed a change and I could not be happier. He put life, glow and style into my long and curly hair and I am thrilled with how great my hair feels, even after spending a lot of time swimming and in the outdoors. He's just a magician with hair and does a fabulous job with his other clients as well, whether they have long or short hair, or need extensions. He listens to what you say and works within your parameters, all the while giving you a great look. Nobody ever leaves his chair unhappy! And now that he's in the San Francisco Bay Area/Silicon Valley every 6 weeks, scheduling regular appointments is easy. Carlos is just terrific and anybody that really cares about their hair should definitely call him!!! more
