Studio City sits on the other side of the 134 from us, and the drive over runs about 15 minutes from most of Ventura Boulevard — slightly longer at the 5pm crunch. Many of our Studio City clients come to us specifically because the salons clustered between Laurel Canyon and Coldwater Canyon run on a higher rate than they need to, especially for the maintenance work between bigger appointments.
What Studio City clients book most
- Partial highlights with a face-frame. A lot of our Studio City regulars run the same color program: partial highlights every 10–12 weeks, gloss in between. The pattern is gentler on the hair than full highlights every 8 weeks and the brightness around the face is what reads on camera or in a meeting.
- Keratin and vitamin smoothing. The Valley humidity that creeps in from late spring through fall is the main reason Studio City clients book smoothing treatments here — and keratin holds noticeably better when the salon doesn't rush the application time.
- Mid-week blowouts. Standing weekly or bi-weekly blowouts are a frequent ask from Studio City clients who want to skip the daily styling time. We'll book a recurring slot if you want consistency in stylist and time.
- Balayage on previously-foiled hair. A common ask: shift from years of foil highlights into a softer, lower-maintenance balayage. The transition usually takes one full appointment plus a follow-up gloss six weeks later.
Driving directions from Studio City
From Ventura Boulevard, hop on the 134 East at Coldwater Canyon, Whitsett, or Laurel Canyon. The 134 is the fastest route east into Glendale even mid-afternoon. Exit at Central Avenue and we're one block south on South Central. Free parking in our private lot.
Switching salons
If you've been with a Studio City salon and you're considering a change, bring your current color formula or a photo of your last several appointments. We'll match what you had on the first visit so the transition isn't visible, then refine from there as we get to know your hair. The team here is small and stable, so the same stylist will see you every visit unless you specifically want to try someone else.
