Editorial Review for Beauty Bar – by Lina Ung

In Short
Double doors lead a steady stream of club-goers inside and onto the checkered dance floor of this 1960s beauty parlor, where henna tattoos and manicures are the only pampering services offered. Beers and cocktails flow at the bar while a friendly and unpretentious crowd lounges around hair dryer chairs, antique salon mirrors, a photo booth, jukebox and plastic-covered sofa. Resident DJs enter at 10pm and play '80s hits, rock-and-roll and pop grooves the rest of the night for a vibe that's gritty, yet accessible and cute.

Put the following in a blender :cheap beer, hot trendy/artsy/hipster crowd, Awesome music, and a fiftys nostalgia decor, press blend and out comes the Beauty Bar in Hollywood! I really enjoyed this place the other night. First place in LA where I have purchased a $4 beer! The crowd was vibing and the music was off the hook! Great DJ!

Pros: The music, attractive crowd, cheap beer

Cons: Selective crowd, kind of small

I went on a Thursday night, and had a great time. I didn't even know it was an actual salon until reading these other reviews! It just seemed like a cool bar with a funky theme to me. Maybe I was there too late at night to get a manicure. Fun times, though. Really good music, nice people. Cute bartender.

Pros: Awesome music, fun theme.

Cons: Had to park really, really, really far away.

Travel back in time to the swingin' '60s for martinis, manicures and DJs spinning dance tracks inside this vintage salon.  See the full editorial review.
