Hair Salon in Montrose, CA | Bokaos Aveda Salon & Spa
Aveda Salon for Montrose Residents
If you live in Montrose, you already know what makes your neighborhood special. The tree-lined stretch of Honolulu Avenue with its indie shops and local restaurants. Sunday mornings at the Harvest Market on Oceanview Boulevard picking up fresh flowers and produce from certified California growers. The kind of community where people still wave at each other on the sidewalk. It is one of the most walkable, character-rich pockets in the entire Foothills region, and finding a salon that matches that standard matters.
Bokaos Aveda Salon & Spa in Old Town Pasadena serves Montrose residents who want premium hair care without sacrificing the personal, neighborhood-feel service they are used to. We are an Aveda salon, which means every product we use is rooted in plant-based science and environmental responsibility. That philosophy fits right in with the values Montrose residents care about. Just a quick 12-minute drive east on the 210 and you are sitting in our chair at 52 Hugus Alley.
Your Montrose Salon Experience at Bokaos
Montrose has a vibe that is hard to replicate. Nestled between the Verdugo Mountains and the foothills of the Angeles National Forest, it feels removed from the rush of greater Los Angeles while still being connected to everything. People who live there choose it on purpose. They shop at Portobello's Cuisine for a weeknight dinner on Honolulu Ave. They bring their kids to the Montrose Arts & Crafts Festival every summer, the largest public event in all of Glendale with more than 270 artists, food vendors, and musicians lining the shopping park. They look forward to the Christmas Parade on the first Saturday of December and weekend hikes in the Verdugo Mountains with panoramic views of the valley below.
At Bokaos, we built our salon around the same idea: quality over quantity, relationships over transactions. When you walk in, you are greeted by name. Your stylist remembers what you asked for last time and what you are growing out. We take the time to consult before we cut or color, because rushing through an appointment is not how we operate. Montrose clients tell us it reminds them of the way their neighborhood works. Everyone knows everyone, and the service is personal every single time.
Services Popular with Montrose Clients
Our Montrose clients tend to gravitate toward a few signature services. Balayage and lived-in color are consistently popular, and our colorists are trained in the latest Aveda techniques to create sun-kissed, low-maintenance results that look natural in the Southern California light. Full foil highlights, partial highlights, color corrections, and glossing treatments are all part of our color and foil menu. Whether you want a dramatic change or a subtle refresh before the next Harvest Market Sunday, we have options that fit your timeline and budget.
Precision cuts and blowouts are another favorite. From textured bobs to long layers, our stylists work with your hair's natural movement to create styles that hold up between visits. Check out our full cut and style options or browse the complete service menu to see everything we offer. We also provide deep conditioning treatments, scalp care, and Aveda botanical therapy sessions for clients who want to invest in the long-term health of their hair. Every service starts with a stress-relieving ritual that Aveda salons are known for, so even a simple trim becomes something you look forward to.
