Pregnancy Message is the greatest

by Carmen G. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 2,587

The best message ever! As a baby shower gift my girlfriend got me a Pregnancy Massage. It was the greatest 60 minutes of my life. They took very good care of me and my tummy. I highly recommend this place.

Pret A Porter

by Anthony S. | insider Insider | Rank: 24,076

I went in to get a hair cut and a complimentary shoulder and neck massage and came out feeling great and with a new look. I had my hair cut and styled, it was a great day. They pride them self on a high level of service and although it was a little pricey it was worth it.

"Top notch Talent, Unsurpassed for hair, skin and products!New York City level!.......

by LisaNewberg

Pret-a-Porte is refreshingly talented for hair and skin services. Hard to find in San Diego county. Zip code or not, this gem should be sought out by all in La Jolla, Rancho Santa Fe and Fairbanks, there is no better. As a Los Angeles native, where the stars are....it is great to have Pret-A Porte- Dan and Roz Oserin.The newest Green Science facials and plant peels are splendid and Theresa a jewel, try it.

Pros: Roz and Theresa for me, the products also.

Cons: Parking slots, a challenge , but worth it

Two amazing experiences so far

by caitlinsinger

I've had a full color + cut and a facial at Pret-a-Porter and both were among the best services that I have received, EVER. I am very happy with my hair (a unique, dark red color & layered cut) thanks to my stylist, Mandy. The facial that I had today with Theresa was a fabulous & relaxing experience (My skin feels sooo good right now). The products & people & services are great - I highly recommend this salon & spa.

Most relaxing spa ever.

by HarrietNiss

I love Pret a Porter, partly because of its beautiful, relaxing ambiance, but mostly because of the friendly atmosphere and high quality services provided for reasonable prices. I've been a customer since its doors opened and am likely to be going there until I'm too old to care about how I look and feel. Does that ever happen? I don't think so!

Pros: Ambiance, skill level, friendliness.

Cons: Parking a ittle tough.

Wonderful, personal attention and professional expertise

by margiemckay

I've continually been getting complimented on my hair since Dan started cutting and coloring it about a year ago; and I especially enjoy the complimentary hand and arm messages. From the time I walk in and Sheri offers me water or tea to the time I leave with my next appointment I feel like I've been on a mini-vacation.

Never been happier!

by delyssa

After searching for a hair salon in San Diego, I am so glad I went with Pret-a-Porter Salon. Upon entering the salon I was warmly greeted and offered a beverage. The overall atmosphere was very friendly and the salon was decorated beautifully. I immediately felt comfortable.

Mandi was my stylist and she was super sweet and very talented. I got an all over color, highlights, haircut, and style. The price was very reasonable and the quality was extraordinary. My hair has never felt better and I can't wait to return for my next appointment!

Pros: Everything!

Cons: None

Best salon, color, cut, atmosphere

by JoanieC

This is the best salon I've ever used. I've been coming here for over 5 years. Roz is the best color expert in San Diego County. All of the staff is warm and friendly and I actually enjoy getting my hair colored. I never thought I'd enjoy spending time in a salon, its a mini vacation every 5 weeks. Thanks

Great service and prices, relaxing and easy-going atmosphere,

by RealEstateWriter

I found Pret-a-Porter seven years ago when I moved back to the San Diego area and I was looking for a place to buy Aveda products without driving from La Mesa to Fashion Valley for conditioner or lipstick. I met Roz, the co-owner, and talked with her about needing to get my highlights redone. She was so friendly and knowledgeable that I made an appointment and have been going back every six to eight weeks ever since. She's always done a great job with my color -- whatever it may have been at the time -- and has never given me a bad haircut. She even knows how to tame my very curly hair! She's always hired talented and friendly staff, from the other hair stylists to the facial and massage personnel. The salon has very high standards for quality as well as customer service. I recommended Roz and Pret-a-Porter to my mother and a friend who also has early hair and both have become loyal customers as well.

Pros: Service, atmosphere, price, parking

Best haircut, styling, hair color, waxing, massage, and facial anywhere. Excellent customer service.

by franceswarren

I've lived in the SF Bay Area and New Orleans and this salon has the most knowledgable,creative, and friendly staff . They are expertly trained in haircoloring. The massage therapists are highly skilled and knowlegable in physiology to give the safest and most effective service. Those who do facials and waxings work for and achieve perfection. You will never be disappointed.

Pros: ambience, service

Cons: none

Great Salon, where everyone is knowlegable and friendly.

by alleypat1

Roz knows what looks the best for your skin tones and doesn't let you get away with looking "just OK". My hair color always gets compliments and my cut is always the best. When I need an update, she let's me know and I always do what Roz recommends and have never been disappointed.

Pros: Ambience, product selection, services available

Cons: parking

Best Salon in La Mesa

by jrmcook

I just started going to Pret a Porter Salon in June as a hair model. I found their ad in the Reader for hair cut/color models. Shauna cut my hair the 1st time and Briana did my high lites and color. Both Shauna & Briana did a wonderful job. I used to let my hair go since I did not trust anyone with my hair. Not anymore, now I go every 6 weeks. Now I do not have to worry about what my hair will look like when they finish. I can't wait to have Rosemary give my daughter & I our pedicures.

Pros: They have saturday and late afternoon appointments.

Most relaxing hair cut experience

by jsmithshe

I've been going to Roz for over 10 years, and I always look forward to my haircut and color days, because it's like a mini-meditation day for me. The whole atmosphere of the salon is relaxing and invigorating at the same time. Roz is absolutely the BEST colorist in San Diego county! Everyone is friendly and helpful, but not pushy. The massage services are great, too!

Pros: Atmosphere

Cons: None

Great Salon Experience

by jmichna

I absolutely love this Salon. I have been getting my hair done by the owner, Roz Oserin, for over 10 years. She gives great cuts and THE BEST color anywhere. I also highly reccomend their spa services. The massage room is great with it's own private shower shower. And if you go, you MUST get a facial from Teresa - the most relaxing and best feeling facial I have ever had. She actually puts me to sleep. Check out this salon, you won't regret it.

Pros: Entire experience

Cons: Parking. Only a few spaces out front, but I always find a spot on the other side of the street.

great cut & color, relaxing atmosphere, service is always friendly and on-time

by bmfisch

I have been a customer at the salon for almost 9 years and must say it's a comfor to know I can consistently get a great cut and excellent color every time. The addition of spa services several years ago enhanced the experience, allowing for a day of total relaxation. I highly recommend taking advantage of all of the services offered.

Pros: excellent service & results, relaxing atmosphere, convenient parking

Great haircut - they took me as a walk in late Saturday.

by dansat

Because I have such a demanding schedule at work, I never make hair appointments. I usually walk in to one of the local salons on the weekend. When I got to Pret-a-Porter Salon it was about 5 p.m. on Saturday. The owner and a couple others were still there and said he would be glad to take me. It's one of the best haircuts I've had in a long time. The salon was clean and the price was right too. I will definitely call for an appointment the next time I need a haircut and see if they can take me on the spur of the moment.

Pros: good parking, clean and bright salon, great haircut, open late

Cons: none so far

What a jewel in downtown La Mesa. It's a high end salon and spa that specialized in hair color.

by marilynfelton

I went to get my hair hilited and cut and I really love it. Everyone in the salon was friendly and because it is an AVEDA concept salon, I got a scalp massage complimentary with my haircut, and was able to purchase all of the AVEDA products that I used to get at Fashion Valley. Great job.

Pros: parking, value
