I have been getting my hair done by Whittney at Davis Hairdressing since I moved to South Boston 2 years ago and she is BEYOND amazing. Whether I'm going darker, lighter, or want to switch things up with a pop of color, she never disappoints. She gives her honest opinion on what she thinks will look best and listens to exactly what you want. She is honestly a magician when it comes to hair color- I have yet to leave the salon anything less than overjoyed with how my hair turned out. Beyond coloring- she makes sure to give my hair whatever treatments it may need to stay healthy, so it is always soft and shiny. She also recently styled my hair for my bridal shower and it turned out better than I could have ever hoped. (She's even doing my wedding hair on the big day!) If you are in the Boston area and looking for a new hair salon Davis Hairdressing in Southie is the way to go. Everyone at the salon is incredibly friendly and make you feel right at home. I would 100% recommend booking an appointment and asking for Whittney! read more

I have been to numerous salons where I have a picture in my head of what I want my hair to look like and when I entered Davis it all changed. Michael, my stylist, who made me feel amazing even before cutting my hair knew exactly what I wanted and made it happened, made my confidence and my ego boost drastically. I have been to numerous stylists and have been happy with the outcome at the time, but then afterwards was very frustrated with the way my hair "played out" but when Michael took over, I haven't had an issue styling my hair. He made me feel comfortable with the style he gave me, I basically told him to do what he felt like was the right thing to do, and he nailed it on the spot. Not only did he do everything that I asked for, but his personality, conversation, and opinion towards the service was over impeccable customer service. I will definitely be staying with Davis as long as Michael is there. He's an amazing stylist and I HIGHLY recommend seeing him. Thank you Michael for making me feel amazing about my hair again! read more

The most incredible experience! I took my daughter to Michael Marsili to have her hair colored for the first time and he is such a talented artist! Her hair is softer then when we went in ( I never knew that could be possible when coloring your hair and having to lighten it first.) The way her hair turned out has both of us grinning from ear to ear! The ombré of blues and teals and turquoises is amazing and her with her original hair color and seeing her hair glint in the sun today is a joy! He also did amazing work with my hair, which is hard to tame let alone feel silky and fabulous! It is super curly and kinky and he mastered it and left me feeling fabulous!!!!!! I cannot say enough about him or the rest if the staff at the salon! They were so kind and pleasant! The salon was so clean and spacious! As a designer, myself, the entire space was a pleasure to be in! It was a genuine joy to be there!!!!! read more

This review is long over due! I had been struggling to find a consistent hair dresser/ salon since I moved back to Boston over a year ago. After a series of disappointing appointments on Newbury St., I had seen this place walking by, and seen a review that Whitney was great with color. I had never really colored my hair other than my roots and wanted to try a balayage. Whittney really listened to what I was looking for and was able to talk me through her ideas, and out of my nervousness. Not only that, she did SUCH AN AMAZING JOB. I had never been so happy with a color and cut, and could not believe she executed exactly what I wanted. I've gone to her twice since then, and each time has only gotten better as I've figured out what I like in a look and with her fantastic recommendations/guidance. I'm so happy I discovered this place and Whittney is just the absolute best! read more

Where to begin? From the moment I walked through the door my experience at Davis Hairdressing was positive. Immediately greeted by the receptionist with a smile, asked if I wanted water/coffee, and introduced to my stylist. I sat in the chair, explained to the stylist what I was looking for and we went from there. I appreciated them listening to my requests in full before asking follow up questions of their own. The haircut itself was fairly straightforward and I felt the stylist was genuinely interested in the job versus just getting it over with. Best part of the whole haircut? The head massage! Incredible. I was blown away with the cleanliness and the professionalism of Davis Hairdressing. I will for sure be back! read more

For starters, I had to create an account just for this review. My experience was that over the top -- I work in retail and customers stopped me in the middle of transactions to tell me how much they liked my haircut. Every associate that worked today, not only mentioned the hair cut but complimented as well. Michael is truly gifted with his barber techniques and gives a "wicked" great cut. The team there has great energy, the second you walk through the door you're greeted with a smile. I'm very particular about my hair cut but I also love getting one, this just makes me want to come more often. From start to finish my experience was great -- it's a little hidden gem in Southie, but I'm glad I found it! read more

Davis Hairdressing is hands down one of the best salons I have ever been too! When you first walk in the door you are instantly greeted with a warm, friendly, staff who are super accommodating! They have reasonable prices and the quality is incredible. The staff is so professional and the atmosphere is very relaxing. I've been going here for years and Katie is AMAZING. I have always been so indecisive with my hair and she helps guide me in the right direction with the best advice. I have never been disappointed by her. Every time I get my hair done she's so personable, it's like seeing an old friend. She always goes the extra mile to make sure I'm nothing but happy! read more

I don't remember a time when I did not go to Davis for my hair. Long before I had gray hair, through styles long and short, Amy Lynne has seen me through. Always energetic and supportive, she's a breath of positivity--and a magician with color. I always wanted to try red. Didn't really dare risking a Cindy Lauper look though. Amy Lynne mixed her potions to the perfect strawberry-blond natural hue. When I moved an hour away and my teen daughter couldn't imagine having anyone else create the prom up-do she envisioned, Amy Lynne opened up her schedule. You won't go wrong. Heart of gold, hands of wonder. I cannot recommend her enough. read more

Davis Hairdressing and Michael Marsili make me feel like I'm walking out of their salon on to a supermodel runway! I so look forward to my appointments at Davis as the entire team makes you feel like you're their MOST important client and sincerely happy to be seeing you, each and every time. Michael is super talented. I said "I want to go lighter" and he nailed my new color - I love it! He is totally focused on the client he is working with and really tries to understand the look you're going for. The staff seems genuinely happy to work there and the experience is unparalleled! Thank you Michael and the entire Davis team. read more

I have been going to Davis Hairdressing for eight years now and I am always so excited and impressed with my hair cut and color! Each and every one of their hairdressers is so talented and knowledgeable. Recently I have been seeing Marisa in South Boston, and she is amazing! She just gave me a beautiful blush pink money piece and I am in love--it came out even better than what I had pictured. I also feel so safe going to their locations during "Covid Times." They make sure to make clients feel comfortable and taken care of. I can't say enough positive things! read more

I was looking for a new hair salon in the Southie area after trying several different salons throughout the city. After reading reviews about Davis, I scheduled an appointment for a cut and color with Whitney and was so impressed! She was extremely knowledgeable and worked with me to determine a color plan that was feasible to maintain on an ongoing basis. She did a fantastic cinnamon colored ombré application on my hair and a great style/ cut. I've received nothing but compliments on my hair since and I will definitely be back! read more

Whitney traveled for a wedding I was in. She did an amazing job! She had a group of girls who all have different hair types and lengths as well as skin tones and textures. Whitney was able to make every single one of us look absolutely stunning! Our make up and hair was absolutely flawless! I will continue to recommend her to all my friends as I've never been so satisfied before. Thank you Whitney, you do amazing work! read more

I walked into the salon for my appointment not sure what I wanted to do with my hair. I knew I needed a change from my current color and style. After talking with Whittney and having her explain different options we decided on my new look. Whittney did an amazing job I felt like a whole new person. She was so nice and professional and made me so comfortable while doing my hair. I will definitely be going back to her. read more

I highly recommend this salon. I walked in because it's in my neighborhood and I walked out looking like a new and better version of myself. They are friendly and very experienced. I am giving them 5 stars for professionalism and expertise. And also a lot of fun. People I have known for years walked right by me and then did classic double takes! read more

Whitney is the best! She revived my dry, blonde hair to new life. She is so knowledgable with colors, especially blonde. She restored my color and makes sure it grows in naturally. The salon has a very warm vibe and everyone is so nice. The owner is typically in the salon and is happy to chat/assist you with anything you need. read more

Love going to Davis Hairdressing where Ken Davis can work his magic and make me feel like a million bucks! From the receptionist to the shampoo ladies to the stylist, everyone is friendly and professional. The thermafuse smoothing treatments work great, and I am always thrilled with my cuts and color. Could not be happier! read more

Whittney is beyond amazing at what she does. She is professional, talented and makes you feel comfortable even when doing the most dramatic changes. No make what I have her color, cut or style with my hair I am always beyond impressed and in love with it. I will never let anyone else touch my hair. read more

Coming from a family of hair stylists I know what I am looking for when I see a stylist and man does Whittney deliver! She balances my desire to be trendy with my need to look "professional" in an office setting, which is not always easy to do. I look forward to many more visits with her. read more
