The Press and Curl Bar Way
The Press and Curl Bar Way was created to ensure that women in Los Angeles continue to receive trusted, high-quality healthy-hair care from stylists who share Micha’s philosophy and technical standards. After years of serving clients and building a salon known for excellence, Micha expanded her approach into a curated network of professionals who uphold the core principles that shaped the original Press and Curl Bar experience. Each featured stylist has been personally vetted and trained in healthy-hair practices rooted in integrity, intention, and long-term care. These stylists honor textured hair, prioritize scalp health, and deliver consistent, beautiful results that align with the standards Micha built her name on.
If you are in the Los Angeles area and looking for a stylist who understands natural textures, offers a luxury client experience, and is committed to exceptional, healthy-hair outcomes, you can book directly with one of our trusted stylists below. This platform was designed to make high-quality textured hair care more accessible, giving clients confidence and connection while also supporting stylists in growing their influence and impact. For stylists who would like to become part of this network, we offer the opportunity to join the Press and Curl Bar Way as a featured professional, with access to continued education, business support, and a community dedicated to elevating the standard of beauty.
Come back each week for more healthy-hair tips, tools, and guidance from Micha and the Press and Curl Bar Way community.
