Always a great experience at The Mane Studio. Been a client for many years now and always end up looking red carpet ready!

Laura is your local Southbay curly girl specialist!!! She truly has magic that runs through her hands. Her new shop is amazing, plenty of parking, great location and with the current Covid she even was able to set up outside!! It's perfect!!!

Let me start by saying I am the pickiest person on earth when it comes to my hair! I have had nothing but awful experiences and gave up on finding a stylist UNTIL I found Laura. I have been going to Laura for about 2 years now and this review is long overdue. Laura really takes the time to listen to my needs and complaints and gives me honest and solid advice. She doesn't just cut my hair to how she think it should look but rather listens to what I want. I know that sounds obvious but so many stylists do not listen. As you can see in the photo, she knows how to cut curly hair (I am about 3a ish) and style it wonderfully! Very reasonably priced and she is also just incredible to be around! I can't imagine trusting my hair with anyone else!

Laura is an incredibly talented stylist. I had the amazing pleasure to work under her and it was an amazing experience. I highly recommend her for any of your curly hair needs. She knows exactly what you need and what your curls need. and ACTUALLY listens to you when you tell her what you want. My curls thrived after getting cut by her and I loved working with her as well.

I'm super late writing this but anywayyyyy Laura is amazing. The entire process made me feel happy. I moved to Torrance last October and I left "my girl" back in Philly and was convinced i'd never get the same look ever again. Then there was Laura! I stumbled upon her page on Yelp and looked through the photos and knew that she GETS curly hair. Now I can continue to live my life knowing I will have amazing perfectly cut, undamaged and color treated curls.

I wish I was able to try out her cut after waiting two months. I had a family emergency happen the week of the date scheduled and then did not make my appointment. She charged me $40, which wasn't such a big deal but her lack of empathy, costumer service and attitude will prevent me from ever scheduling another cut.

I am more than pleased with my first experience with Laura! I booked the DevaCut appointment months in advance and it was worth the wait! Not only was she knowledgeable about my curls she listened to my words and helped me make the style decision after understanding the concepts! Even though I was late to the appointment, Laura just rolled with it and always kept herself professional and calm. I will definitely be booking with her again!

Laura's a great curl tech and educator. Assistant, Kaitlin, is a peach, as well. Not only was the cut and style fabulous, the conversation and curl education was as well. Laura was great at asking questions and really analyzing my hair. She helped me decide on a direction to go with my curls and the cut turned out fantastic.

Laura was incredible and gave me my first Diva Cut. I'm in love with my hair, even a week after my cut! No regrets!

I found Laura on the Devacurl website after my stylist moved to New York less than a year before I was getting married. I was having a breakdown that I would not be able to find someone that could cut my VERY curly hair and not mess it up. I know from experience, there are not a lot of stylists who can cut curly hair well. Thank goodness I found Laura. She is always so fun to work with and always makes me feel fresh and beautiful after an hour in her chair. She was so accommodating, coming in early to do my hair on my wedding day and it stayed perfect all day. I don't know what I would do without Laura!

I am so grateful to have found Laura to appoint as my new hairstylist! She has unmatchable craft and skill (especially with curly hair!) and such poise. I trusted her from the start of our conversation via email and she made me feel comfortable and confident in making a big change, cutting at least 10-inches off as I transitioned to shoulder length hair and back to my curly roots. Her willingness to share her expertise was so useful, she explained what she was doing throughout the cut and most importantly during the style and made sure to answer any questions along the way. I left with great tips to upkeep my curly hair and the best haircut to date!

Laura is amazing! Her space is adorable, she is kind, patient, and very knowledgeable. She took my 3C curls that had never been shaped (or properly cut at all for that matter) and made a masterpiece! She talked me through the process, listened to my hair habits, took her time, and gave me exactly the cut I was looking for. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I will be a long time client.

Laura is simply awesome. My hair is the healthiest it's been in years. I love the color and style. She patiently listened to my "wants" and made them a reality. She suggests without pushing and helps guide you to happy, healthy, beautiful hair. Absolutely, hands down, the best hairdresser I've ever had!

Laura is awesome! My cut and color are perfect! I went to her for the first time last month. I found Laura by doing a Google search for hairdressers in the South Bay and followed that to her Yelp page and web page. I needed a stylist that was closer to my home (I am in the South Bay, and had been driving to Westlake Village for my other hairdresser). I had been procrastinating for years to find another hairdresser as finding a good one is no easy task! I was drawn to Laura by the great before and after pictures she posted and the fact that her reviews were great. I sent her a text to see if I could get an appointment, she replied and was able to see me the same week. Laura listened carefully to my concerns, likes and dislikes. You never know sitting under the dryer with all those foils how the color is going to turn out, but I was so happy with the outcome. I have booked my next appointment and will be going to Laura from now on!
