I live in the Bay Area, but I fly to Los Angeles to get my hair cut at Thomas Chase. It seems totally eccentric and perhaps it would be ridiculous if I wasn't already in town for other business. That being said, I'd fly in anyway, because Thomas Chase is that good and Eli, my amazingly talented stylist, is worth it. I have never left this salon feeling less than incredible. I could go on and on about Eli, but go see for yourself, you wont regret it. I actually get excited about going to get a haircut now. They took extra care to put in especially comfortable furniture. My living room furniture at home isn't this comfortable. If I lived closer I'd book a conditioning treatment when the budget allowed - their chairs are insanely comfy, and it feels like more of a spa treatment. No more neck wrenching washes, and my hair is so unbelievably soft and happy after they get done with it (thanks Bo!). I'm gushing, but deservedly so. It's not the cheapest cut on the block, but it's not unreasonable, and they are a bargain for what you get. They actually care about you and your hair. Beautiful hair inspires them; they like working with it, they like creating it, and they do a fabulous job. Go in, have champagne, water, or whatever you want. They'll order you some food from one of the Montana restaurants, and then you'll get a stellar wash and head massage, and the best cut or style you've ever had. ps. that insider tip about the cost is high. I've never paid close to that, and Eli has always cut my hair. Of course, services can reach that price, but not without reason.

Pros: perfect hair every time, comfortable furniture, fun people, open late

Cons: its on Montana. Park in the back or bring your quarters.

Editor's Review

Rock-and-roll style meets Santa Monica luxury at this deceptively suburban late-night hair salon.  See the full editorial review.
