La Vita Salon & Spa in Corona Del Mar, CA

If you need a new hairstylist, please do yourself a favor and go see Mariella! You will not be disappointed!! As someone with naturally curly hair, I have found it extremely difficult to find stylists who cut my hair well, especially without making extra requests. It's rare for me to find stylist where I leave with a feeling of genuinely loving my haircut with no wishes for anything to be different (e.g. more layers, or shorter in one spot/longer in another, etc.). As Mariella was cutting my hair, I already knew it was going to be a beautiful cut based on how it looked and I couldn't be happier with the final style! Not only is she an expert at her craft but she is also a gentle and beautiful soul. Thank you, Mariella!!!

You get what you pay for - I am a 20 year client of Mariella's!! I am so lucky I found her years ago!! Her cuts are amazing!!! They grow out beautifully. She truly is the BEST at all services she provides!!! She has been teaching me how to take care of my hair, providing input to style and her salon has done my eyebrows too!! I get nothing but compliments about my hair and brows. My teen and young adult will NOT go anywhere else because they see her skills and understand that cheaper is not always better cuz you have to keep going in as the hair grows out. With a cut from Mariella, they save time cuz their hair always grows out beautifully :) Go see her for a consultation and let her do her magic!!

I've been a fan of Mariella for years because of her technique with cutting my hair in a way that not only flatters my face shape, it grows out very pretty. I've had long hair for over 10 years and I was looking for a more dramatic change. I mentioned to her that I want to go short (maybe a bob), but I was really scared to do it. I had a bunch of photos pulled up and I saved them on my phone. Once I sat down, I forgot to show her what I wanted and I just let her do what she does best. Mariella cut 13" off of my hair into a longer bob that is the perfect length (exactly what I was envisioning)! It's not too short but also not too long. It's very flattering with a center and side part, I can still put it up into a pony tail, it's fun to style and much easier to manage. I've also noticed significantly less fall out. Mariella, I really can't thank you enough. You provide a safe calm space, you're extremely knowledgable and professional. Having my hair done by you is more than a haircut, it's an experience. Friends, I know it's not easy finding the right stylist. I've had my hair botched so many times I would just cut and layer it myself so I could only be mad at me if I messed up (eg. a year and a half ago I tried to give myself "curtain bangs" and that's when I finally put down the scissors). It just feels good to know that the person cutting and styling your hair knows exactly what they're doing and you can just trust them to do what's best for your face rather than just a "basic blah cut". It's a huge relief to not have anxiety while getting your hair done. She's worth the money. I'll be back soon! Thank you so very much! xo

Not a "Troll". Do not let this person cut your hair or do anything for that matter. The 5 stars are from friends.

The Rude hairdresser! I posted on nextdoor that I am searching for a hairdresser. A woman called Mariella Hoss Send me a message about this Saloon. I asked the price and she answers by explaining that the hair she cuts grow the right way ridiculous. Then tells me the price and says "It may not be what you are looking for. But That is ok. I take pride in the quality and ethical work that I deliver" I want to go to a hairdresser that makes me feel beautiful not like shit. Check the images for the whole conversation
