Our Herstory

Our story begins in the vibrant streets of Senegal, where a young girl named Amina watched her mother craft magic with natural hair at the famed Daba Plus Salon. These cherished moments weren't just Amina's first lessons in hairstyling; they were her initiation into a rich legacy of transforming hair into art.

Fast-forward 15 years, and Amina's journey has taken her across the country, armed with her mother’s techniques and the wisdom that only experience can bring. Throughout her travels, one dream remained constant - to bring the unparalleled skill and quality of Salon Daba to her community.

This inspired Amina to open the doors of her own Salon Daba in Los Angeles, CA. Salon Daba is a space dedicated to hair styling and where education in hair care thrives. It’s a place that echoes her mother's mastery while also resonating with her commitment to environmental awareness. Amina's salon lights up with people who come in for intricate braids, locs revitalization, or tailored scalp treatments at our Remedy Bar.

But Salon Daba is more than a hair salon; it's a place where passion for hairstyling meets a devotion to environmental stewardship. It's a testament to the enduring legacy of a mother's love and a daughter’s promise.

At Salon Daba, our customers become our ambassadors, living testaments to the power of feeling and looking fabulous. Every client is a member of our extended family, and our mission is to ensure they leave with not just a hair style but with a newfound appreciation for the art of hairstyling and our shared environment. That's the Salon Daba promise - a nod to the past, a commitment to the present, and a pledge to the future.
