The Platinum Salon operates on Washington Avenue in Historic Murrieta, positioned as a general-service salon handling cuts, color, and styling for a mixed clientele rather than specializing in one particular service. The operation runs on appointment booking, which shapes the pacing — clients arrive at their scheduled time, move through their service (whether a quick trim or a multi-hour color session), and clear the chair for the next guest. This isn't a walk-in or first-come basis. Regulars typically book on a six-to-eight-week cycle for maintenance color or trims, while others come in for event prep — bridesmaid looks, wedding-day hair, special-occasion styling. Parents bring children for first cuts and routine trims. For someone seeking a specialized stylist in extensions or complex dimensional color, the boutique specialist salons elsewhere in Murrieta may offer deeper focus. For the broader client wanting consistent care from a general operator with rotating appointments, The Platinum Salon fills that neighborhood role — the kind of place where a regular knows to book ahead rather than expect a same-day slot.

Smith Hair Salon operates on California Oaks Road in Murrieta as a general-service salon handling cuts, color, and styling for mixed clientele — the kind of multi-chair setup where stylists rotate between appointments rather than a single-stylist studio or dedicated specialist boutique. The work spans routine trims and basic color to longer color sessions, suiting both walk-in traffic and scheduled appointments depending on the day and available capacity. The typical client runs the range: regulars maintaining a cut every six to eight weeks, parents bringing kids in for back-to-school trims, and clients booking longer blocks for color correction or special-event styling. For someone seeking an extended balayage or complex color correction, a dedicated color specialist elsewhere might be the deeper fit. For a straightforward cut, a refresh between appointments, or a first haircut for a child, this format handles the routine maintenance pace most Murrieta residents rely on.

The Dime Studio operates as a small, single-stylist setup on Washington Avenue in Historic Murrieta — the format that suits clients building a long-term relationship with one colorist rather than rotating through a roster. The focus leans toward color work, particularly dimensional and balayage services that require multi-session planning and touch-up cycles, rather than a quick-trim operation. Regulars here work on an eight-to-ten-week maintenance schedule, returning for root refresh and tone adjustment rather than a one-off appointment. This model fits clients who know what they want and prefer continuity over convenience — people invested enough in their color to book months ahead and wait for availability rather than walk in. For a same-day blowout or a child's first haircut, the larger salon chains with multiple stylists and flexible scheduling are the practical choice. For someone building a color progression with one stylist over a season or two, a single-chair studio removes the variable of different hands on the same head.
Marco is always accommodating and listens to what you're looking for, any concerns or questions! He takes the time to make the experience special.
I knew someone who used to go here. Would request something simple like a fringe but got the most messed up and rushed haircut I have even seen. The sides were shaved all the way with a number 2, didn't even blend into the top of his head, looked like a bowl cut, they made him look like 'Vector' fro...
I am usually pretty picky about where I get my hair cut because I have had many horrible experiences with my hair; especially salon type locations. However, I can honestly say that Mark did an exceptional job and superseded my expectations. I left with exactly what I wanted and was very happy with ...
