I've been going to Jamie for a few years and love the work she does. She is an artist! I sit in the chair, she takes a gander at my hair, and within minutes she's got the road map...

Paul cut 6 inches when I told him I just wanted 3. He was so rude, he began yelling at me and was completely abusive. I was so upset. His temper really scares me. Pros: N...

Massimo of Allen Pacheco 8/22/2009

Massimo has been doing my color for years. He recommended the Brazilian hair treatment. I had it done for my 7 week trip to NYC. 7 weeks in NYC in the humid summer and I had nothing but GOOD hair days. My hair was easy to style and looked fabulous. If you are a slave to your hair and the weather, go get the Brazilian from Massimo. It is so worth it. Pros: Great stylist more

The Brazilian Hair Smoothing Treatment by Massimo is Amazing 6/30/2009

I used to have to straighten my hair or pile on products to look presentable. Now I just let my hair air dry for a little wave or blowdry (no brush necessary) and it looks like I've spent hours straightening it! Pros: No more starightening iron and frizz! more

Miracles happen here! 6/16/2009

It's not easy kids - limp hair, gray to be covered, a need to feel hip even in your dotage. What to do? Answer: Jamie Brown! Great colorist and techniques to solve all those problems and more. My hair and I bounce out of that salon. Now If she could only make my brown eyes, blue! Pros: Great vibe Cons: Parking more

Massimo is so talented. He gets it!! 3/22/2009

Every time I go see Massimo I leave feeling gorgeous! He knows exactly what I want, I dont even have to tell him. My hair feels so healthy and looks shinier than ever after a trip to Allen Pacheco's salon. He is a pro and thenk God because he always fixes my bangs after I ruin them by trimming them myself. I love him!!!! Pros: Very accomodating with my time. more

Massimo=Amazing Hair 3/22/2009

I have been going to Massimo for three years. I was in Europe last spring visiting my mother, when she suggested we both go to her salon for some fresh color. BIG MISTAKE! I walked out with bleach spots all over my head and hair texture rivaling a bristle pad. The day after I got back to the US, I went straight to Massimo who fixed my color and saved my over processed hair. With regular cuts, and hair treatments my mane is back on track and life is good! Thank you Massimo! Pros: love love love more

Great Place! 3/18/2009

This was my first visit to Allen Pacheco - the haircut by Christine Fields was terrific. I will definitely return, and highly recommend Christine in particular, and the Allen Pacheco salon in general. Pros: Great Haircut By Christine & A Very Comfortable Salon Cons: What are the drawbacks? more

Paul Welsh 3/18/2009

I absolutely love Paul. I went to someone else for over 10 years and then my Esthetician recommended Paul, so 3 years ago I went to see him. My hair is curly, fine and needs color because of the gray. Not many stylists do a good job with curly hair - Paul is awesome. The color always looks natural - I get lots of compliments on my hair. I highly recommend that you give him a try. He's also a very funny and nice guy. Pros: Great color, good with curly hair, always happy and fun. more

Fabulous and Funny!!! 3/13/2009

I was introduced to Paul after a year of constantly hearing how great of a stylist he was. Although I wasn't really interested in changing to someone new, I joined my freind as she went for her standard six week cut and color. I think seeing him in action was the deal breaker. more

My favorite hair stylist...Paul Welsh at Allen Pacheco Salon in Santa Monica 3/3/2009

I have been a client of Paul's for over 20 years!! Paul has styled my hair through my 30s, my 40s, and now I'm approaching the big 50. Throughout my aging process, my hair has always been one of my best assets due to Paul's artistic ability. I call him the king of texturizing hair. Currently, I have straight, shoulder length layered hair which always has so much movement and volume. Paul consistently changes it up so I'm never bored with each style and every cut looks awesome as it grows out. This is key to having a fantastic hair stylist!!! I highly recommend Paul Welsh both for color and cuts... Pros: Great Ambience, Great Hair Products, Great Neighborhood, and Expert Friendly Service more

Go to Massimo for Best Color and Cut in Town! 2/25/2009

Grazie Massimo! I've been going to Massimo since 2001 and have not strayed since! His color is amazing -- I get compliments on it all the time, amazing blending of color and natural look -- and his cuts are right on. I also had very long extensions for two years that he did and people could not tell they were extensions! They were unbelievable. Now I'm back to a more professional look with honey blonde shoulder length hair and he always keeps it looking fresh and healthy. And his prices are very reasonable. I've tried really pricey Beverly Hills salons and swankier places, but once I found Massimo I keep coming back. I also love this salon, easy lot parking, and location right in the heart of Main St. Santa Monica and all its fun shops and food joints. more

Massamo is the best hairstylist! 2/24/2009

I lived in LA briefly and while I was there my hair never looked better and that is because of Massamo. He is a great colorist and hair stylist. more

Great Cut & Style with a European flair 2/23/2009

When I left Europe, I was a little concerned about getting my hair cut since it seemed that most women were more into color than precision cuts. I don't need color - I am blessed with natural blond hair - I just need a professional hair style that I can easily maintain at home. The best thing a hair stylist can do is listen to what you want, make recommendations and then make it happen. Unfortunately, some often do what they think looks good on you and then don't even execute well. Massimo is different and that's I why I will drive 50 miles to see him! I have a beautiful mid-length bob that is slightly longer in the front than in the back, with a full set of bangs - stylish, fit for the corporate world, yet young and versatile, just long enough to wear it small poney tail for working out. The kind of haircut that seems deceptively easy but cannot afford to be poorly done as it will be obvious. You immediately see that Massimo knows how to use scissors for the hair to fall just right. And not only is he nice, his prices are affordable! I highly recommend him. more

Best Hair Extensions!! 1/28/2009

I've wanted hair extensions for years, but was afraid to get them b/c I have thin hair and thought you would be able to tell. I've been going to Massimo for several years for color and was told that he does good extensions so I finally gave in and got them and now I LOVE THEM!!! Everybody thinks that are real, they look real, you cannot tell at all and even my close friends were confused thinking I changed my haircut or something not realizing that I had gotten extensions b/c they look so natural. Massimo is the only stylist that I would ever trust to put in extensions. He really cares about them looking good and real! Now I'm addicted to them! more

Ruth Korn gives the most amazing facials! 1/14/2009

I've been going to Ruth Korn for facials and waxing at Pacheco for years. She is absolutely amazing - such a perfectionist, very professional and knowledgeable, and clearly loves what she does. My skin went from drab and spotty to clear and glowing under her care. I've sent numerous people to her over the years and they've all come to adore and depend on her. If I ever moved from LA, I would come back periodically just to see her, because I don't think there could possibly be another like her. more

Massimo is a color and cut genius 1/10/2009

Massimo is terrific at color, cuts and customer service. I've been his client for three years, and have always been grateful for his honesty and skill. He is very exacting with color. I have dark hair and he makes sure that all color stains are gone and so when you walk out, it doesn't look like you've just had your hair processed. He really listens and is an excellent hair cutter and shaper. Plus, he has a sparkling personality and always is interesting to talk to. I can't recommend him highly enough! Pros: stays open late, in a good neighborhood for restaurants/coffee more

LOVE my short hair! 11/18/2008

Paul is hands-down the best stylist I have ever gone to. He is amazing with my short hair. With his focus on texture and shaping, I get a beautiful unique look that not only looks incredible when I walk out of the salon, but grows out well too! He has also done great color on my hair (which I change a lot) - everything from highlights, to funky chunks of color, to solid dark brown. But don't just take my word for it, check out his website: paulwelshhair [dot] com. Pros: Professional, experienced staff. Good ambiance. Great location. Cons: Park a block away in the metered lots behind Main Street. more
