Vogue Salon -St. Regis Hotel

I have been going to Erin at Vogue Salon for the past few months and I must say she is one the best stylists in Orange County. I have tried a lot of high end Salons in OC and LA and my experience here has been the best. I have very dark hair with lots of gray and she has done an amazing job with the color as well as the style. My hair is the healthiest it has ever been thanks to Erin. She really listens to your concerns about your hair no matter how trivial. The Salon is beautiful and everyone is very friendly. It feels like a mini vacation every time I get my hair done. I cannot say enough about this salon. I promise it does not disappoint. more

Hmmmm ... how many years has Donato and his staff been working magic on my hair??? I can't remember a time without him! (Kudos to Rebecca and Erin for my color when I couldn’t make it in to see Donato.) I was referred by a dear friend, who always looks elegant and youthful, and whose hairstyle I very much envy and admire. Donato did not give me her hairstyle, but rather a style and color that is ""me."" That doesn't mean I have had the same hairstyle for years, it has changed with the trends and he keeps me from getting stuck in a ""hairstyle time warp."" His cuts are perfection ... I have even skipped a haircut, and he has just done my color and bangs. The last five minutes of your appointment, when he takes that final look at your style ... sometimes he has you stand up ... and takes his scissors to make the last snips ... is sooooo awesome! That’s when you get to see the sparkles and glitter of his magic scissors at work ... and then the finale .... you get to enjoy the fabulous result when you look in the mirror! more

I have been going to Deanna for about 6 months. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted to do with my hair -- for both the cut/length and color.\r \r She does a great job, is very patient, explains everything well, always keep up updated with the latest procedures -- she really cares!\r \r I have already recommended her to my friends and family!\r \r Pros: Really listens well, understands what I want Cons: Can be on the expensive side more

Erin is a phenomenal stylist and colorist. She is very personable and aims to please! I just had my fifth appointment since starting there in May of '09. I am so pleased with the outcome. The entire experience at Vogue Salon is what you'd expect from the most exclusive salons but without any of the drawbacks. For example, appointments are a snap to get and the staff is SO cordial. No attitudes! For me, it's worth the money to have such a lovely experience. I highly recommend it! Pros: Professional salon-emphasis on customer satisafation Cons: A little pricey, but worth it! more

For years I've traveled 30 minutes (with no traffic!) to have Donato work his magic on my very fine hair. He is a genius with scissors and color. Dispite years of coloring my hair, it is healthly, shiny, and full of volume. Donato transformed my rather ""ordinary bob"" into a stylish professional cut that doesn't make me look like I'm trying to imitate a 20-something hottie. Vogue's staff and Donato's assistants have always been very attentive and client-oriented. Quite simply- worth every penny! more

Vogue Salon has the perfect balance of being a hip fun salon, but with the added benefit of offering stylist with substance, talent and an overall friendly atmosphere. As a local client, a salon in a ""hotel"" was not an obvious first choice, but through word of mouth I made an appointment and four years later I've never looked back. They are extremely flexible and try their best to fit their clients in, provide the latest in hair care from Kerastase and offer complimentary wine...need I say more...:) Wether you are visiting Orange County or live in the area, I highly recommend Vogue Salon. I must say, I love all the stylist, as each have their own unique attributes. You can't go wrong with any of them. \r They also have a wonderful mani/pedi lady who does a great job of custom making a color for your skin type and when you're short on time, she happily will do your nails (the whole enchilada with soaking, massage etc.) while your getting your hair done (I speak from experience). \r They also have a gal there that does an amazing job with make-up and what's even better is that she does make up lessons, which I recently took advantage of. When we were all done, she wrote everything down, including instructions on how to do it at home, all on a face chart. I knew she was the real deal when she didn't try to sell me just the products the salon carries (although I do like Colorscience and did end of wanting to buy their powder and a few other things). \r After you're all dolled up, you can stroll into the Lobby Bar or move onto the balcony with the gorgeous Pacific Ocean ahead of you. The raspberry mojito is my favorite! \r Everytime I get my hair done, it's like a mini vacation and I'm usually out of there within an hour or so...or you can choose to linger longer, if you so desire. Pros: valet, great front desk service, excellent stylists, convenience of proximity of Spa Guacin and St. Regis hotel Cons: not all stylist work everyday, so you have to plan ahead if you want a particular stylist. Also, could be open later. more

Vogue Salon, Donato and his team, are absolutely unbeatable for delivering outstanding results. He is a master of coloring, and is extremely passionate about making everyone who enters the Salon leave looking like a celeb. I look positvely dumpy with an average hair cut, because I'm kind of average looking, and have to have a stylist who knows how to raise the bar. When Donato cuts my hair people ask me who did it, it looks so good, and it makes me look better than I actually do. The best part is that the cut lasts. I've gone out of town for months and the cut still looks fresh. I barely have to brush it, and even low maintenace people say it looks good. Being a mom of four, this is very important. Even 100 pounds heavier, post pregnancy, he evelvated my look. Go see my cuts at TheWealthGap website. I don't want to risk going to anyone else. Pros: Value for price Cons: Hotel parking fee more
