Hair Stylists
7) WHO: Jonathan Antin
TITLE: Shampoo Man
WHAT: Antin, an attractive, tattooed and very straight hairstylist to the stars, is the closest living embodiment of Warren Beatty's character in Shampoo. (Hollywood's catching on: A reality show about Antin will air on E! this fall.)
CELEBRITY CLIENTELE: Tiger Woods, Ricky Martin, Kirsten Dunst, Christina Applegate, Kate Bosworth
CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT: "It" girl Bosworth has said, "If I didn't have Jonathan to do my hair, I think I'd die."
SECRET WEAPON: His perfectionism: "I will not stop until it's 150 percent perfect," Antin swears. (He's been known to spend over two hours on a single haircut.) And
BUT CAN YOU GET IN? Though you're probably looking at a 6- to 12-week wait to see Jonathan, you can almost always get in to see another stylist at his salon.

8) WHO: Joseph Kendall/Martin Fassnidge
TITLE: London Towers
WHAT: Where Los Angeles meets London, the Joseph Martin salon lets you know you're in Beverly Hills (the salon has valet parking, natch) by way of London (just try finding an American accent in there).
CELEBRITY CLIENTELE: Julia Roberts, Sheryl Crowe, Julianne Moore
CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENT: Edward Furlong (Terminator 2) won't go anywhere else and buys their product Thick by the dozen.
SECRET WEAPON: For the past two decades, they've understood that it's about your day-to-day look.
Says Kendall: "We give cuts that don't just look great when you leave the salon but can also be easily maintained at home."
BUT CAN YOU GET IN? If you call ahead (the salon has been known to have a roughly three-month wait list) but comparatively speaking, the prices are a steal ($150 for a haircut and blow-dry).
