Los Angeles, and especially the Westside, has no shortage of hair salons. But it does have a shortage of total service salons that can make a significant difference not only to your appearance, but also to your mood for the day.

Kyle Mathis Organic Hairdressing, located on Wilshire Blvd. in Santa Monica, offers much more than any ordinary salon. Now going into its fourth year, this stylish space offers a wide variety of custom treatments and services, all in an atmosphere that proprietor Mathis calls “Zen Rock ‘n’ Roll.”

It’s easy to see why that description is accurate when you enter the premises. It’s a comforting, open space, very calm and orderly, unlike typical salons that can be crowded and noisy. A number of guitars hang on the walls as decorations and give the interior a rock ‘n’ roll vibe–without the actual need for loud, blaring music. You immediately get the feeling that this is a very contemporary place that goes about its business in a highly professional way.

The salon treatments here are offered in an atmosphere of calming serenity, which immediately relaxes you, and the treatments are based on providing the best possible look and creating naturally healthy hair.

“We spent a lot of time developing organic, natural treatments that will help restore the natural luster and health to hair. This is especially important when hair has been subject to different processes that can stress and damage it,” says Mathis. These treatments include proprietary natural blends of herbal and vegetable extracts.

Mathis has over fifteen years of experience in the styling and maintenance of hair, and spent the first fifteen years of his career in Texas. After a close brush with a serious illness, he decided to pack up everything and move to the Big Time, opening his salon in Santa Monica and offering his unique services to an area where appearance and style are so important.

Now staffed with seven employees, Kyle Mathis Organic Hairdressing is developing a reputation as a salon offering a wide variety of services in an atmosphere that is calming and serene. “Personalized service is one of the things we excel at,” says Mathis. “Every customer is offered highly individualized custom treatments for each unique hair type and style.”

One of the most popular treatments, used along with restorative organic extracts, is the scalp massage, which is part of the Zen at work here. After one of these treatments, you will walk of the salon with a not only a radiant new look for your hair, but also what amounts to a complete attitude adjustment.

Kyle’s Salon is now open seven days a week, so there is no excuse for not stopping in for the type of service that will help you look and feel your best.
