Editorial Review for Number One Beauty Supply – by Robyn Fener

The Scene
A cramped two-room space houses every manner of skin and hair care product and relaxation creation you never even knew you needed. Shoppers can take their pick from among the dozens of testers and play before they pay. But be careful of bumping into other curious customers as floor space is dedicated to packing in top goods, not providing a roomy shopping environment.

The Goods
From the most established brands, like Epicurean and Phyto, to trendy newcomers to the world of beauty, such as Jack Black and Nickel, all the finest and most fun products are here. Delightful Votivo and Rigaud candles scent the air and make the perfect gift, and this store carries their complete lines. A large selection of hair (barrettes and headbands) and travel accessories (from plastic to sequin-studded pouches) rounds out one of the best beauty bazaars in town.

Save Money

Prices at Number One are reasonable compared to other high-end beauty supply stores. But if you find a lower price, tell the manager and he is likely to beat it.

I know it is unusual.... but this shop offers the VERY BEST Customer Service. I am amazed each time. Whether I phone in with a question on a product, or try to find a product while shopping - the service is unbelievable. I once tried to find a nail color that was out of stock and it was not available anywhere in Los Angeles. I added my name to a list (thinking that I would never get it!) - well I was wrong! Just as the sales person said the delivery was on Thursday and she called me late Thursday and said she'd hold it for me until I returned. I also wanted a hairbrush that was not in stock – a salesperson from the store called me when it came in. I have never had customer service anywhere in Los Angeles, NYC or for that matter anywhere that is as conscientious and consistent as they are at this store. It is the best place on Montana!

Pros: Customer Service, Selection, knowledgable

Cons: None

4 Star Rating: Recommended

I love Number One beauty because they have high-quality products that are mostly carried by salons, and they're open on Sundays, when most salons are closed. It's family-owned; they're quite helpful. Also a good place to find gifts. Cute hair clips, nice soaps, cute makeup bags. Huge selection of Essie and OPI nail polishes.

Pros: Selection

Cons: Parking (sometimes)
