Los Gatos is a town of about 30,000 people (around 18,000 registered voters) and about 40 hair salons. Additionally, there are places in Los Gatos for nails and others for a massage..jpg)
For the last five or seven years, my stylist has been "J", who runs Work Shop in the Village Lane area of Los Gatos. J is a down to earth guy who's been doing hair for more than a decade. He's easy to pass the time with, but even more, he does a wonderful job.
Elsa and Shane work alongside J in this offbeat, non-stuffy salon where the decor is anything but standard "California fare". If you are expecting to hear Bocelli and see a Tuscan theme (neither of which do I mind), you'll be surprised. It's more like a Dia de Los Muertos scheme, purple and metallic silver paint, and kidney shaped mirrors at the stations. It's fun, but nevermind the decor. These folks are friendly, skilled, and will make you look your best when you step out the door. The atmosphere is lighthearted, but the attention to detail is not. Finally, you won't feel like you raided your kids' college fund to have your hair done, either. 
"There are no bodies under this shop", says J with certainty. Asked how he knows - after all, utility workers and others occassionally still bump into coffins when excavating some of the area - J replies that the area under Work Shop has been excavated for a parking garage.
