I am the runaway bride of hair salons
Fifty. That is the number of hair stylists I literally ran away from minutes before the new stylist was scheduled to cut my hair because I have a disasterous fear of trusting my hair to anyone.
In 1987 I had beautiful waist length healthy hair and the stylist owner of a Hermosa Beach salon talked me into a permanent and his fiancee called to make wedding arrangements and he forgot all about me and by the time he rinsed the chemicals out my hair was destroyed and burned almost to the scalp. The chemicals destroyed all of my hair. I kept waving to him to remember that I have perm chemicals on my hair to rinse me out but he lost track of time making the wedding arrangements. So now thats why I am the runaway bride of hair salons. So the sweet young man that answered the phone referred me to Max. So after I made the appt in my head I am thinking Who is this guy Max, could he be a transvestite who is going to thrash my hair? Can I trust him given the fact that I had my hair demolished chemically in the past????
So I sat in the reception area and observed him carefully cutting other clients hair for a solid 2 hours and trusted in him by observation. He cut my hair to the degree that CRISTOPHE himself would be in AWE of his abilities. Max is an amazing communicator and a beautiful family man and about to be a father any day now.
Max treated my hair with a conditioner that helped repair the damage and if your hair is damaged this salon is the RX for you!
This salon is so successful its not going to fly by night with the economy like so many other salons that are dropping like flies now.
Cristophe, you will have a very loyal client for the next fifty years.

Couldn't be happier - LOVE what they did to my hair! – Scott and Jennifer at Cristophe in Fashion Island are AMAZING! I have extremely difficult to cut hair so have spent YEARS avoiding the salons and made due with unremarkable hair. Jennifer put in beautiful highlights and then Scott cut and blew dry my hair into a look I literally didn't think was possible for me. It is beautiful and I absolutely love my hair now. I know other's have commented on the condition of the salon, but you should know that they've just completed an entire remodel and the place is gorgeous... I recommend this salon full-heartedly! And the staff are great too...

Only followed my colorist and stylist – I have been going to Candice and Christy for years at Toni & Guy. I followed them over to Christophe Salon. The staff there are very nice and the salon is in a good location, but needs a little bit of a face lift. I went there to follow Candice and Christy. Now they are at the Jack Winn Salon in Newport Beach. I will definitly follow them over there. It's a beautiful salon.

overated – Wow! 3 hour below average hair cut in a dive. The hairdresser kept talking about how great Christophe is and how he personally interviews all of the hairdressers in the salon. She spent an eternity cutting my hair and it was below average. I've had to pull my hair up in a pony tail since the hair cut. I'm hoping it will grow out soon. The salon's industrial white setting was fashionable a decade ago and perhaps they would be able to pull it off if the paint wasn't peeling off the walls. I went to pay and couldn't include her tip with the bill. It felt like a stepchild salon in desperate need of some tlc. Take my advice if you want a Beverly Hills haircut go to Beverly Hills.

Great hair/Poor customer service
Craig Allen gives great haircuts but lacks customer service. When I questioned him about the price of my hair service he was not only argumentative but rude also. He certainly made a huge production out of the whole situation. In addition, the manager did nothing to remedy the situation. So, I contacted thee Cristophe in Beverly Hills. We played phone tag a couple of times and I received an apology on my voice mail. I would not recommend this place as it left a bad taste in my mouth.

Cristophe is a good guy
This salon contracts its space out to independent stylists. My friend who is getting married went to one of the independent stylists and had a TERRIBLE experience. After writing a letter to Cristophe, he personally called her and apologized and got her money back. She wasn't expecting anything, she simply just wanted to explain the situation she was in.
PROS: Good customer service
CONS: Not all stylists are qualified
