This is the best place to get your haircut in Boston. Pini never gives a bad cut. I have thick and…read morewavy hair and I've consistently had bad experiences at salons until coming here. His cuts are an investment price wise but I barely need to get my hair cut because he does such a great job that the cuts last. He really frames your face and gives you a cut you barely have to style. I don't even have to blow-dry my hair to have it look put together. All the celebrities who live locally come here but it's not a stuffy or snobby place in the least and Pini treats everyone with full respect and courtesy. He tries to fit you in too as quickly as he can too which is super appreciated. I can't really fully express how good he is in writing but I highly, highly recommend!

I don't often leave Yelp reviews, but needed to share here that V&O is absolutely fantastic. I've…read morebeen traveling for several months and really needed a full set of highlights and cut on my stop in Boston. After scanning previous reviews, I made an appointment with Olti. He put so much attention into my hair, specific issues, how it had been colored in the past, and I ended up with what I think is the best color I've ever had! My 20 year old daughter was with me and she agreed. Really beautiful highlights, toner, and treatment for my damaged hair. The cut was equally great. It's always nerve wracking to find a hair stylist in a new city and trust that it's going to work out ok, but Olti absolutely exceeded what I thought I might be able to find. Plus, he is a super chill and kind person to hang out and talk with. Ralphie the Frenchie who hangs in the shop was an added bonus. Definitely recommend making an appointment here. You won't regret it!

My appointment was moved up in the day and I was promptly seen by my stylist and I was whisked to the shampoo bowl to get started. Ash is very knowledgeable, the salon space was very clean. She used only quality tools and products on my hair. Booking an appointment is super easy and they have plenty of availability which is a plus. I'll definitely be returning. She wasn't at all judgmental and the salon is very welcoming and aesthetically pleasing. Ash is highly skilled and made the salon experience very positive.

I have been going to Trephin for over a decade for cut & color, and I have always left looking…read morepicture perfect with shiny, bouncy beautiful hair that gets me a TON of compliments, including from other hair stylists I go to for blow-drys. I have curly, frizzy, fine hair and it is not easy to style and cut. Nate, the owner/co-owner is the best colorist and also bang & shag cutter anywhere, especially if you have curly hair! The best part, or cherry on the top, is that, unlike other salons where you go home looking great and then can't get your hair to look "that way" on your own, ever -- @ Trephin, Nate will literally sit down with you and go over your hair AND scalp needs, lifestyle (e.g. wash and go, or blow dry queen?, AirWrap or regular?) and in my case allergies and let you know exactly which products to use to replicate that look at home, plus what to do to keep your hair in a very healthy condition - which is the basis for all great hair. For example, Nate recommended drops for my hair which also repair the hair, double duty. And a conditioner that I leave in as a styling creme. Because of this I was finally able to get my hair healthy enough to grow long like I wanted to for the first time since I was a teenager. He also helped my daughter with dandruff. I've seen him sit down for 20 minutes with someone who had multiple allergies and find her products to use. He also gives samples of some of the shampoos/conditioners if needed. I call this my Hair Prescription and there is simply no one better!! Definitely in great hands here!

UPDATE This is the…read moreresponse the owner supplied regarding my concerns over the lack of masks and tight sink area: "The sink area Christina calls a tight corner is 8 ft by 6ft with only 2 sinks in this area. The 2 stylist that did not have the mask covering their nose one being a female over 300 lbs with congestive heart failure and the other being a male over 400 lbs with asthma. It is very difficult for them to breathe wearing a mask all day and could cause them personal health issues. The 2 stylist that did not have the mask covering their nose one being a female over 300 lbs with congestive heart failure and the other being a male over 400 lbs with asthma" While I certainly understand health issues making it difficult to wear mask, we are still in a public health crisis and they shouldn't be on top of other people if they can't cover their mouth and nose. An 8ft by 6ft sink area makes it impossible to social distance when there are two stylist and two clients in the area. ----- Its hot and humid in Massachusetts, but when discomfort becomes more important than protecting the health of yourself, your clients, and your community, I can't support your business. ~Facility~ Location: B Cleanliness: B Spaciousness: C Staff: F Environment: F ~Stylist~ Ease of making appointment: A Knowledge: A Results: A Facility: -This salon is fairly easy to get to, with a decent amount unmetered street parking. I could see it being difficult to find a spot during really busy times, but overall it's not too bad. -The salon itself is pretty neat and well kept. It's not huge but it is not a shoe box either. -The staff were really friendly and were obviously aware of the seriousness of COVID as they were checking temperatures at the door, providing facemask, and plastic covers for everyone who walked in. A+ for that effort, but the CDC has said the most effective way to prevent the spread is PROPERLY wearing a facemask that covers your nose and mouth and maintaining six feet distance. Obviously, the stylist cannot maintain six feet from their clients, but clients and other stylists should be maintaining six feet from each other, which was for the most part adhered to, except for when you got to the wash area which was this tight space in the corner. That's problem number one, but it's not main problem. The main problem was that at least two of the stylist failed to wear their mask problem. A larger gentleman working across from where I was getting my hair down (about six feet away, perhaps a little less) had his mask on his chin. The virus isn't spread by your chin sir, it's spread by your mouth and nose, what is a chin guard going to help you with? The stylist to my right, had her mask over her mouth but not her nose. The stylist was washing her clients her at the same time my stylist was taking out my relaxer (in that tight corner). I asked her polite to put her mask up, and she informed me "it's too hard to breathe" and explained that the mask isn't effective if it only covers your mouth and not your nose and she told me I could go sit somewhere else and wait for her to be done. I did move and wait for her to be done, but I feel the need to point out that even though I move six feet away, it's still an indoor area with shared air. By her refusing to put her mask up correctly, she was placing me and everyone else in danger. When I went back to the sink, the larger stylist came over with his client with no mask on (chin doesn't count) my stylist asked him THREE TIME to pull his mask on before he finally pulled it up over his mouth but not his nose. She then asked him to put it all the way up and pulled it up for about a minute before complaining it was too hot and pulling it back down. 95% percent of the time this man failed to wear a mask over his mouth or nose and at no point did he actually wear it over both. The other stylist kept her mask over her mouth (for the most part) but refused to wear it over her nose, even when asked by myself and my stylist. It was a hot day, there is no denying that, but I wore my mask as did all the other clients. If you can't tolerate a mask, then you can't work with the public, period. It is not up for debate, there is a pandemic going on and people's lives are more important than your comfort. ~Stylist~ I want end by saying that my stylist, Annetta--"Girlfriend Hooked me up", was amazing. My hair is shinny and healthy and I have ZERO complaints about how she did my hair. This negative review is about the facility. I have left a five star review on her style page because she is great and has no control over what the owners of the salon allowed the other stylist to do.
