great place to go for a GREAT haircut

by GnarlyJoe at Citysearch

I have used citysearch to review many places in LA. i just moved here a month ago and have never been to a "salon" to get my hair cut. im just a normal 21 year old dude who usually just goes to the barbor shop. i went in here to get a good haircut and something new cause i have worn my hair the same way for almost 10 years. what a nice place! everyone was really nice and i was a little scared to go cause i thought it would be full of stuck up beverly hills rich people but it wasnt. they were all nice and GIUSEPPE personally cut my hair. i think he dose that for all first timers there, but not that im complaining. haha. i left there with a smile on my face cause i really liked my haircut! it may be pricy for some people but its worth it and plus its beverly hills. the parking situation isnt bad cause there is a parking garage 1 block away and it gives you the first 2 hours free. go here, its worth it!!

• Pros: everything
• Cons: none

Hair by Andrea - Great Color/Cut AND Personality - can't beat it!

by LittleAnneWoods at Citysearch

Andrea has been doing my hair for many years and I have followed her to every salon. Guiseppe Franco's is by far the best salon she has ever worked at...my favorite AND hers! The people are nice, the salon is busy, they have a great courtyard and you can see celebrities often times...last time I was there, so was Arnold Schwarzenegger and his secret service! I even saw Maria Schriver walk by - she must have been meeting her husband! To top it off, my hair always looks fabulous. Andrea is very knowledgeable about color and she has made suggestions over the years that are always an improvement. I like to "change it up a bit," from highlights to lowlights to "adding some red," she makes it look natural every time. She is also hysterical and a great conversationalist so it passes the time nicely where I enjoy spending my time at the salon... especially this one.

• Pros: Great Stylists (Andrea), Great Atmosphere
• Cons: Expensive

He's Giuseppe Franco

by JasonEscamillo at Citysearch

He doesn't own the company...He doesn't own anything about it.

Stop hiding your hair underneath these caps!

Mr. Franco, thank you for the greatest television ad in history.

• Pros: The appearance of my thinning hair
• Cons: Pretending it wasn't a problem

Hmm?

by willit63 at Citysearch

The reviews posted for this salon just don't strike me as authentic. By some amazing coincidence they each list the stylist by name and seem to follow a similar writing style. I don't see nearly the level of diversity that should be expected. Who other than someone in the salon business would ever use the word esthetician? I'm more inclined to believe the reviews were planned by the same guy who is willing to take credit for Gary Busey's hair in his television spots for a revolutionary new formula for thinning hair.

• Pros: Thicker Hair
• Cons: Yes

great HAIRcutter in beverly hills.

by samq at Citysearch

I saw Riffe at Giuseppe franco Salon this past week and I have to say that I have never been so happy. This guy knows how to cut some hair. He really took the time to figure out exactly what I wanted and he can work with anything. I would definitly recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic new cut and blowdry. IT S A REALLY FUN ENVIORNMENT!!!

• Pros: fun and creative
• Cons: none

someone finally gets it

by ileo at Citysearch

wow! I have to say I like my hair for the first time in a very long time. I was recommended by a friend to see Courtney for a cut and color. I have curly hair and have often left the salon feeling the same as I did when I walked in or worse. For once it makes sense. She gave me a cut that actually has style and better yet......doesn't require much styling on my part. Also she gave me highlights that actually show amongst my curls I think she called them ribbons? On top of all this....the place is fun! Worth the drive from the east side and not at all what I expected from a 90210 zip (that is except for the celebs walking through, even hanging around chatting with the stylists. Who, by the way, all seem to genuinely like each other and seem to be having fun themselves)

• Pros: great stylist, memorable experience, great shampoo from sean, giuseppe is a character
• Cons: very busy, sitting in front of beautiful men with foils in your hair

Fix your hair woes

by kim_parker at Citysearch

Ask for Timon at this salon, she will solve your hair woes.

I have always had problem with frizzies and kinked hair. She is the only

who ever suggested a hair relaxer, I am white girl, never would have occured to me.

What do I know about hair? I really don't like a lot of maintenance during styling so this

relaxing treatment makes more manageable now, not so much fuss. I don't feel doomed

to suffer the torments of unruly, coarse hair anymore, yeah !

She fixed my cut too. I like to cut my own hair so there were some uneven spots here and

there, including my bangs. If you see Timon, she will "hook you up" for sure.

• Pros: everyone is happy and friendly
• Cons: next to a famous donut shop

Fabulous Lashes, Fantastic Facial

by debbie_do at Citysearch

I've been to my esthetician, Yumi for my lash extensions, facial, permanent makeup, and waxing for 3 years. She's the BEST and one of a kind!! I've travelled from Valley just to see her, and I've referred all of my friends in LA to her. Her extensions service is so fast, long-lasting, and natural-looking. She's the queen of extractions for facial. She literally works on each single pimples. You can totally feel the big difference especially after her signature age-lift facial. For waxing, she's been recognized as an amazing waxer for her speed and gentle technique since she featured at Damone Roberts for high-profile clients. I highly recommend to go to her. She will be your beauty solutions. You can ask her to get so many services that you can name.

• Pros: Great hands, Personalized service, Reasonable price and so much more
• Cons: None, but booked fast
