As co-owner of Saulino Smith Salon in Santa Monica, I’ve created a space where sophisticated artistry and an inviting, elevated experience come together seamlessly. I’m known for my expertise in effortless luxury and lived-in color, specializing in low-maintenance, high-impact hair that radiates confidence. Whether it’s glowing blondes, rich brunettes, or sun-kissed balayage, my expert technique ensures your hair looks flawless from day one and beyond. With precision and attention to detail, I leave my clients feeling polished, confident, and perfectly at home in their look.

As both an artist and entrepreneur, my passion for beauty is matched only by my love for my vibrant life as a wife and mama of two. I know that great hair isn’t just about the time spent in the chair—it’s about creating a look that fits seamlessly into your busy lifestyle. With me, you won’t just walk away with beautiful color—you’ll leave with a style that moves with you, grows with you, and makes you feel your best every single day.

Where is Saulino Salon located?

You can find us at 1431 Ocean Ave, Santa Monica, CA 90401, tucked away in the serene courtyard of the Pacific Plaza Santa Monica Apartments.

It’s a hidden gem, just waiting for you to discover!

Is parking available?

Absolutely! We offer complimentary 90-minute valet parking on-site for all our guests. Just look for the ramp on the side of the building leading down to the garage. Sit back, relax, and let us handle the parking while you focus on getting pampered!
