  2. I've tried several people over the hill that were too expensive and nobody was as good as Shani.
  3. She did an excellent job and it was a relatively low price (some LA salons are ridiculously expensive for a deva cut).
  4. It's easy parking, affordable with lots of options for hairstylists.
  5. After I had moved to Los Angeles and have survived several salon visit disasters (which were expensive and accompanied by the super snooty arrogant attitudes one often comes across in the city in places that want to present themselves as trendy and fashio
  6. would totally recommend this treatment and while it is a "tad" more expensive, I would strongly suggest using this brand to convert your frizzy, curly hair to a sleeker, straighter look.
  7. Capella Salon is truly one of the best deals in Los Angeles.
  8. She has a huge heart and became certified to do micro lines on me because she truly cared about making a difference in my life.
  9. Lisa ROCKS, and the prices are reasonable.
  10. I've gone to many salon's and some costing hundreds of dollars and this salon is by far the best.
  11. have literally spent thousands of dollars trying to get natural, sun-kissed, highlights and a great, easy to style cut.
  12. can't praise Kristen enough- I know she has a huge following and there is a good reason why.
  13. While nice hair doesn't come cheap, the prices here are far more reasonable than anywhere else.
  14. Not only is Rosie a terrific hairdresser, she is also very reliable (keeps her appointments on time), and her prices are VERY reasonable as well!
  15. ROSIE is the most affordable, high class, fun, creative and honest hair stylist I have ever been to.

  1. Followed by adding long layers and longer bangs gave a great texture and soft movement to my hair.
  2. He perfected the "Deva Curl" cut on me when I was wearing my hair blonde, long and extremely naturally curly, and now has brilliantly transformed my look to the rich chocolate brown-straight-haired brunette I am today.
  3. excellent service, great looking staff, and a last minute Saturday afternoon appointment.
  4. My hair is sort of hard to manage, long with grey, cold tones with warm, and it means a lot to me to keep it long as I age.

Best Stylist for Curly hair!!

by Yeshuais4me at Citysearch

Ever since reading Lorraine Masseys book "Curly Girl The Handbook" I have taken a whole new approach on how to care for my curls. I began to understand why my haircuts from every salon I ever have been to turned out so bad for my curls (I would always end up straightening my hair until my hair grew out to wear it curly again).

When me and my girlfriends from Alaska started planning a trip to Los Angeles, California, I began to wonder if any of Lorraine Massey's deva cut special salons were in the area. So I googled it, and lo and behold Capella Salon popped up with plenty of amazing reviews. I knew this was going to be a one time cut for me (Alaska's not exactly close), so I wanted the best stylist I could get to cut my hair. After a little research I found that Shai Amiel, the owner of Capella Salon, was the most qualified and had the best reviews to cut the curls! Me and my girlfriends were sooo blown away by the customer service provided by Shai and his personal assistant Annie. They went way above and beyond! We all work in Alaska as full time volunteers that go in to the Native villages and do camps and conferences and speak all over Alaska (www.tgmalaska), and Shai was very supportive and charitable to our cause! Plus! I am learning Hebrew, and he is Jewish and we were able to speak back and forth to each other! Double bonus for me! My curls felt soooo soft and voluminous! Healthier than ever before! They deep conditioned my hair, and took the time to tell me what they were using in my hair, and how I could recreate the look easily. If I lived closer, Capella Salon and Shai Amiel would definitely be seeing this curly girl again!

found a great hairdresser

by debbieb111 at Citysearch

Maddison at capella is great with color,cut & style. I was so lucky to find her, and she is also fun to be around when you get your hair done.

I highly reccomend her, it is difficult to find someone who is great with color and bleach, I get compliments on my hair all the time.

The salon is comfortable and friendly.

LOVE my new look!

by carlainla at Citysearch

Talk about scared! Here I am newly re-located to LA with no clue about what’s where, in desperate need of a visit to my hairstylist, and he’s 3000 miles away in my old hometown! What’s a girl to do? Do I hop on a plane? Or take my chances? Then I remembered Citysearch!

Thank you Citysearch for leading me to my new hairstylist (and savior), Kristen at Capella Salon! She managed to squeeze me in for a consultation on what to do with my less than lovely color, and gave me some fabulous ideas on a new look for a new town.

I came in a few days later and before I knew it, there was this really sexy girl with gorgeous highlights staring back at me in the mirror! Before blow drying my hair, Kristen made some styling suggestions, and asked me if I could have any type of look what would I go for? So I told her my secret wish was thicker, fuller hair. A bit longer too, since my fine hair always seems to break off before it gets long enough. She asked if I had ever considered extensions, which I had, but didn’t like the fake look and worried about the damage. She assured me that she uses really high quality hair, (Hairdreams), and it is completely damage free, even on fine hair. Then she showed me some before and after photos. After seeing that, there was no turning back. I could hardly wait to get my new hair put in!

I came back a week later to get my extensions and when Kristen was finished, I couldn’t believe the difference it made. I looked like myself, just way better, and with the hair I should have been born with. Thanks Kristen! I absolutely LOVE my new look!
