Why stylists from Mid-Beach drive to LAHH Salon

The drive from Mid-Beach to LAHH Salon is about 12 minutes via south on Indian Creek Drive to the Faena District. Most of our stylists who commute from Mid-Beach cite the same reasons: a real education program, a respectful schedule, low team turnover, and the chance to build a personal client book at a salon that protects the chair instead of pushing volume.

Mid-Beach is known for the Faena District and Soho Beach House neighborhood between 41st and 63rd Streets. Stylists who live in or near Mid-Beach often serve a return clientele based in their own community, while building a steady book at a salon with a different local clientele in Bay Harbor Islands. Both books grow at the same time.

What makes a salon a good place to work, in real terms

Stylists who have been in the industry a few years know what they want from an employer: a real education plan, a respectful schedule, transparent commission and tip handling, and a chair they can call their own.

At LAHH Salon, we keep the team small (under 10 stylists) so every person gets attention and growth. We do not pile bookings on one stylist. We do not ask anyone to skip lunch. We do not penalize stylists for taking advanced education days off the floor.

Our team has stayed together. Our stylists have grown their books year over year. We are picky about who we hire because we are picky about how we work.
