Gold & Braid Salon is the passion of long-time Ladera Ranch resident and seasoned OC stylist René Beckner.
René has been a fixture on the Newport/Costa Mesa hair styling landscape for 15 years, but it was always her goal to create a salon near her home in Ladera Ranch that reflected her youthful energy and whimsical personality.
Gold & Braid is a bright, airy and inviting space with a fun, rock 'n' roll vibe that echoes the Stevie Nicks song for which the salon is named.
Gold & Braid's ever-growing team of extraordinary stylists offer services ranging from Brazilian Blowout and Keratin Complex to bridal styling and myriad methods of hair extensions, in addition to the precision cutting, flawless color and carefully curated hair products one should expect from a world-class salon.

Quality to us means having the freedom to create the best products with attention and respect for our environment, using high grade, natural ingredients, and applying scientific rigor to every product to guarantee our customers' safety. Quality is also intended by all of us, by our partners and consumers as quality of life.
At Moroccanoil®, our passion is empowering beautiful transformations. We started with the original Moroccanoil Treatment which revolutionized the haircare industry. We built our reputation on positive word of mouth from runways to salons to editorial spreads. Our antioxidant infused, nutrient rich, innovative formulas are unmatched and provide dramatic results. That is why salon-exclusive Moroccanoil is preferred by professionals and consumers alike -- because our products simply work.
