My wife and I just tried Mathis Murphy Salon on Abbot Kinney. Now this is different! First the salon is located behind this incredible store. That little trek set me back a little as my wife instantly found a necklace she could not live without. But it's beautiful on her. At the salon Rachel did her hair while Anna did mine. And Kelly shaped my wife's eyebrows. Whoa, we lucked out. My wife looks gorgeous. What a difference. This Rachel came highly recommended, the reason we went to Mathis Murphy, and i can see why. This was a step above anything my wife has ever had done before and believe me, she has gone to some of the most expensive people (as in a $300 haircut!) in Los Angeles. Rachel's a seriously talented stylist. And the color she gave my wife actually seemed to glow. Anna talked me into a new look look. From the comments from my clients she's gonna get a bunch of new customers. Hair has never been my thing but i admit, i really like the look Anna gave me. To me, this is a great cut. Now I'm hooked. I liked this experience. For a guy this place is great. Relaxed and friendly. I'm in advertising so I thought I would give these folks a good rating here on City Search. This is new our favorite salon. we'll be back!
Pros: Some of the best stylists in La under one roof. Fun, unpretentious, committed to excellence.
Cons: Abbot Kinney's too much fun. You'll eat too much, shop too much, end up looking like a star/
