I have seen Esmeralda a couple of times now and she has been great! I have had her blow out my hair and I had her do a smoothing treatment on my hair. She has always been super professional and a perfectionist. I would highly recommend her. read more

I have been going to Dellaria and having my hair done by Gino for about 20 years now! They are like family. Over the years my color and cut have changed .... the last few times I asked them to add some blue and purple streaks in my hair (and left it to them: courtney then amanda to figure it out ). I have really had fun with my hair and I trust them to figure out what I need to make my hair look good. read more

I had Courtney as a stylist and could not be more happy with me haircut! It's the first time in a long time that I've felt my hair actually looked different (and better!) after a haircut. I have very fine hair and she recommended products, and showed me how to style it to give it more volume! Definitely will be a repeat customer! read more

I started going to Courtney when my stylist of many years in the Newton Dellaria became ill. When he passed away I tried a couple of the stylists in that salon but no one compares to her! Experience counts for a lot and loving what you do is an added bonus!! read more

Made an appointment with Kristin for an updo for a wedding. I've never been to this location. The receptionist was nice and walked me down to Kristin. Everything down there was clean and nice. Kristin did a fantastic job. My hair looked amazing. I've had many updos and I have never been satisfied and I'm not particularly picky. Anyway, she nailed it. And it stayed perfect all night. read more

Yaritza is very talented and this salon is very accommodating/flexible. Very good cut and great overall experience!

I have now gone back twice to Mercedes, I told her just what I wanted and she gave me the cut I asked for. Simply to fix my long layers, shes very easy to talk to and friendly. She also does a great blow dry! All my friends and family were shocked when I told them I got my hair done at a chain salon, but it came out great! I'll be going back in a few months for a trim! prices are not horrible either! (wash,cut,blow dry/style $40ish?) read more

Yaritza, Sam, and Antonia all do terrific blow outs!! They are all such talented stylists and the bundle is terrific if you blow dry regularly. I've always had luck booking appointments, even last minute. Highly recommend. read more

This is an update to my 8/23/2010 review. It was filtered for some reason. I called the manager again and she claimed she was going to check with 'corporate' and was going to call me back the next day. She did not. I just wanted to reiterate that this place is awful. Turn off the filters and read my first review if you want to know more. read more

My son has been going to places where they use a one size fits all haircut. I go to Dellaria and Barbara always does my hair to perfection. I knew that Gilbert did a great job on men's hair and made an appointment for my son. His haircut was awesome and he loves it! Thanks Dellaria! read more

Great service! Amanda did a perfect job coloring my roots and highlights for a wedding I was attending. She also gave me a fantastic blowout! My hair is very curly and frizzy, she smoothed out my hair so beautifully! I received many compliments. read more

If you want the best haircut of your life, hands down, make an appointment with Denise.

My stylist: Imagine that Cruella Deville had let herself go but not as sweet. I had to listen to her and her flunky cruelly gossiping about their co-workers for an hour. It was not the spa experience. The cut looked OK when I left the salon but it was difficult to style and the next day it looked like I had had it cut by Chewbacca's groomer. If you want Dellaria I would strongly suggest you drive three miles south to the Needham location. They are much more professional I have been there several times and never experienced anything remotely like this. read more

Go to Denise - she is amazing! My hair is really difficult to cut - wavy with a cowlick - but she nailed it every time. She can also be creative with what she does, but not to the point of going to far. She has a gift - it's just as if her hands know what to do. I got the the point where I'd say "just do what you think is right" and trusted that I'd come out looking great. Also, as a person, she is super nice and genuinely cares. She's the best stylist I've had and also a beautiful person. read more

Hind has been cutting my daughter's hair for 2 1/2 years now. She is the nicest person and does the best job!!! We love her!! My daughter always walks out with the most beautiful haircut. I definitely recommend her as a stylist! read more

Love this salon! Everyone is welcoming and nice! I usually see Tiffany for my blow outs and she is fast and does a great job!

I had an open mind about finding a new salon, being new to the area. I liked how the salon looked when I arrived, clean and bright. I was then lead downstairs which was clean but had a basement vibe to it. My stylist seemed nice but made a point to tell me that he had to move some of his clients to other stylists, as my color was taking longer than he expected it to take. For some reason it was my fault that he was having time management issues?! It took 3.5 hours for foil/cut on about shoulder length hair? After all that, the color turned out much lighter than I indicated I wanted and my hair had a 'chopped' feel to it on the ends. I'll be hunting for awhile for the next salon. read more

I saw Glenn today for highlights and a bob haircut and he did a fabulous job. I've never had highlights before and I was a little bit nervous due to some allergic reactions that I have had to chemicals in beauty products in the past. Glenn took the time to test the toner chemicals on me the day before just to make sure that I would not have a reaction. He asked quite a few questions about what I specifically wanted and was very thorough. My only disappointment was that I didn't have any cash with me and I could only leave a 10% tip on my debit card. I plan on returning in three months for my next cut! read more

I thought being in Wellesley the customer service and cleanliness of this salon would be top notch. Not so much. The customer service is horrible and the salon, especially the lower level could use a good cleaning or at minimum they could sweep up after the previous clients hair cut. The stylist did a decent job with my cut and color but then commented she was so far behind and I left the salon with a wet head. I made a complaint to corporate and was only offered a 20% discount on my next service. read more

I had a photo shoot last week but didn't have time for a haircut at all! So, the morning of the shoot, I made an early morning appt. here - I showed up 45 minutes late because of traffic, but the woman working the cashier (she was probably the manager) was still very friendly :) I can't remember the name of my hairstylist, but she was a very nice and sweet Vietnamese lady. I only had less than an hour for a hair cut and MAN, did she do a great job! She cut, wash, styled - all in the allotted time frame! My bangs was straightened really funny, so I came out looking a bit 80's in my pictures. But after a few days, my hair looks amazing even without blow drying it! Definitely would come back here again for the great service and the knowledge of the stylist! read more

I went to the Dellaria salon in Wellesley to get a long bob and a balayage and left with not only the WORST cut and dye job of my entire life but also hands down the worst customer service I have ever received from any company. If you are thinking about going here BEWARE while some of the stylist are wonderful this was a horrible experience. To start, The stylist made sure that I was aware, several times, that she was staying late to do my hair and that she doesn't normally stay late, and made sure I felt like I was inconveniencing her. I showed her multiple pictures of the exact hair cut and color that I wanted, (the hair cut/ color actress Lucy Hale recently got) and she looked at the photos once and refused to look again, even thought I brought them out several times to show when she asked questions. Not only did she dye it completely wrong and not what I had specifically requested - she put full foil highlight in a color barely different from my natural dark brown, not the light brown/blond balayage I had wanted, but she also cut it WAY too short. I made the mistake of asking her the prices during this hair cut and was surprised to hear that the cut was $80 and the color was $170, which is more than I've ever paid at dellarias before, and that the price included blow dry but even if I didn't want that, same price. I was surprised but quickly said I did not mind paying it, because we all know a good hair cut is worth the money. Well, she took personal offense and became extremely rude and combative, turning every attempt at conversation into a comment about how she deserves more money. This made things super awkward and uncomfortable, but at that point she had already done a rough cut of my hair and I felt I had no other options but to continue. When I again tried to show her the photo of the cut I wanted while she was doing the cutting, she snapped at me, parted my hair in the middle (which I immediately started to object to as I part it to the side,) and immediately cut at least 2 extra inches off, bringing my hair to my chin, which is far shorter than what I had wanted. At this point I literally started to cry, and I told her the cut and color were not what I had asked for. She barked at me to clarify and I told her it was much much shorter and also not the color. She said something along the lines of "well what do you want I tried my best." And then started sweeping up, leaving me sitting there with a wet, ugly hair cut reminiscent of a 8 year old Tom boy. I said "are we done?" And she angrily told me she would blow dry it if I wanted. At this point I said no, and tearfully went to pay. I was literally sobbing my hair was so short, it's only about and inch long in the back and no where near what I wanted. Not to mention it's incredibly jagged and unfinished, as she stopped cutting my hair the minute I said it wasn't what I wanted. I called to complain to the manager, and managed to talk to Meg who was very professional, but unfortunately I had to end the conversation early, and got passed off to a woman from corporate who was extremely rude over the phone. This was a NIGHTMARE and I would literally rather my boyfriend cut my hair with a weedwhacker than ever come back to this salon. This company not only employs a stylist who treats their customers like garbage but also completely mishandled customer service issues. If I could give negative stars I would. They don't even deserve the one. The exception to this disaster would be Meg, who was very professional, and the receptionist Alexis who handled me crying like a baby over the fact that my hair looked so bad. She handled it with an empathy and professionalism that was very impressive. read more

I don't even know where to start with this nightmare of an experience. I don't remember the guy's name who did my hair, but he was the only guy there - my advice would be do NOT have a a guy do your hair at this place just to be safe! I went in for a partial highlight and a bang trim - I didn't need a haircut and I didn't need my hair styled since I was just going home, so I said I only wanted the highlight and bang trim, thinking that he would highlight my hair then just blowdry it to make sure the color turned out ok and to accurately trim my bangs. Boy was I wrong. To start with he was very rude from the time I sat down. He yanked around on my hair asking me what color I wanted, using as few words as he could. So I told him what I wanted and informed him that I wanted a bang trim after the color. After I told him, he went back to mix the color and the whole time he was doing my hair he didn't say a word to me...it was so awkward! After the color set, he took me over to wash my hair, toweled it off after I sat up from the sink and then just walked away. I was totally confused...was he coming back to blow dry it and to do my bang trim? what's going on? So I just sat there and after a few minutes he came back and starting sweeping up the floor! Finally I stood up and went over to him in the middle of the salon floor and said "are you going to do my bang trim"? He looked me in the face and sighed, turned away from me and then came back with scissors in his hand and starting very roughly combing my WET bangs down onto my forehead to cut them...WET AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SALON WITH ME STANDING UP!!!! Not to mention that when he went to comb my bangs down his comb caught my earring and pulled it out of my ear onto the floor! Are you kidding me?? I was so appalled and angry that I told him never mind and I ended up leaving the salon with my hair DRIPPING wet...not kind of damp, but actually dripping onto my shirt. I have never in all my years of getting my hair done been treated so rudely. Not only was it rude, but it is totally unprofessional to not dry someone's hair enough to make sure that the color is correct, or to try and cut bangs while they are wet. When they dry they'll shrink and then be too short!! I will obviously NEVER be back to this salon and I would never recommend anyone else go through that nightmare. read more

I had the worst haircut of my entire life here. I had to go to another salon after and fix what Vanessa did to my hair. Totally awful. Do not trust this place. Completely unprofessional. read more

WORST HAIRCUT EVER. DO NOT EVER COME HERE. Absolute biggest mistake of my life. I had to get it immediately recut as soon as I got this one done because I was so embarrassed. She did the whole thing in like 15 minutes, rushed so quickly, and barely bothered to MAKE THE SIDES EVEN. She also left so many random uneven long strands in my hair. I even thought about walking right back in as soon as I left but feared the lady would make it even worse. It looked nothing as I had described to her. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE THAT I DID AND COME TO THIS AWFUL SALON. 60 DOLLARS COMPLETELY WASTED. read more

I've been seeing Hahn for over a year now and she is fantastic. For once I actually feel like my hair isn't out of control!

I've been going to this Dellaria's for many years and really like the atmosphere and the friendly people who work there. The main reason I go, though, is for Franco. He is an amazing hairdresser who consistently makes my color look great. It looks healthy and natural with many tones in it. Im always getting compliments. His haircuts are also great, and i like that he always does something a little different to it. Before Franco, I never trusted a hairdresser enough to let him do whatever he wanted to my hair. Now, however, I know that it will always look good. So happy to have found such a talented hairdresser and wonderful salon. read more

I also love Hanh and just found out that she has joined the staff at Daryl Christopher Wellness Salon and Spa in Waltham. The salon is located inside the the Boston Sports Club at Healthpoint, 840 Winter St. You can call for an appointment at 781-890-9211 read more

Worst. Haircut. Ever. I've never had a particularly bad haircut because my hair is long and straight and boring. Somehow when I asked for a basic trim of 2 inches and a few long layers in the front, what I got was a ton of layers in the back. I saw Hahn who didn't engage much in conversation and since I am not overly fussy about my hair I thought a short explanation would suffice. She seemed to be quite precise in the cutting she did do but totally misunderstood what I wanted. While that could be forgivable, when I finally saw the varying lengths in the back of my head and explained that she had gotten it totally wrong, she said "oh no it's cute, you'll like it". Excuse me? The receptionist offered to have it fixed but to do so would require cutting off at least 3 more inches and frankly I wasn't going to take another chance. They gave me 20% off because I "didn't like it". Awful. read more

I was seeing Kristin at this location for a couple of years. She was fantastic. I panicked when I found out she left. She's now working at Nicholas Michaels salon and spa in northboro if you are looking for her! read more

I just had my hair colored (ombré) by Kristin at this salon and I'm the happiest I've ever been with a color job. I've been coloring my hair since I was 16 and have changed it many many times. No one has ever nailed a color as perfectly as Kristin. Thank you! I'll be back for sure. read more

This place is awful. There is no class no perks and no chic but yet they charge more then places on newbury street I got a mens haircut for 50 bucks in a crappy basement location. Go to the arden med spa across the street if you want to spend more on your hair. This place is simply awful!!! read more

I normally go to the Dellaria in Needham which is excellent but my hair dresser unavailable that day so I made an appointment at this Dellaria in Wellesley and was extremely disappointed in my experience. I had very long, thick hair and I only came in for a trim and the woman cut 6 INCHES off without my perission. She said she was simply "trimming the dead ends off" but cut off so much. When it was time for my blow dry she was smacking my head with the round brush so hard that I had bumps on my head afterwards! She was going on and on about how she had to ask her babysitter that she could barely afford to stay and watch her kids later because I had so much hair that it was going to take FOREVER to blow dry! Are you kidding me? I would never go back there again read more

The customer service here is non existent. I called for a cut and color with Glen, but when I got there I was told that I would be with Denise. I decided to give her a try, but she was definitely someone that I wouldn't go back to. The worst thing was that after someone washed my hair, it was full of knots from his rough shampooing so to fix it he handed me a brush and told me that I could do it myself. At the end, after only a color, she told me to go to the receptionist who tried to charge me for a cut and color. I tried to explain that my hair had not been cut, and eventually did not get charged. Overall, the color was not great and I will not be returning. read more

The most obnoxious and rude receptionist - Jeannine Giannangelo!!! I went into the salon as I do about 4 times a year to purchase a product they carry that I love. I was told by Jeanine that it has been discontinued. She suggested another saying, and i quote, "If you don't like it, you can RETURN it." I took it home, tried it and realized it wasn't at all like the other product and immediately went back to the salon. Jeannine was in the back room and saw me walk in.... she did not come out. I waited for a long while and then had to asked someone to get her for me. I explained I would like to return the product. "You can only exchange, we don't take returns", in her most obnoxious and rude voice. I explained that she specifically said "RETURN". This went on and an on. I told her it made no sense that I would buy it if she had told me I would only be able to exchange it. She accused me of lying. She told me, "I will never take a return from you again!" I told her, "I'll never return to this salon again!" I want to tell Dellaria Salon in Wellesley that if this is the face of your business, if this is the way your receptionist greets people and talks to customers they should take another look at their interview and hiring practices because Jeannine Giannagelo should stay in the back room! read more

I went to Dellaria salon in Wellesley around march and it is currently august. I went in to see Sophia to get my hair cut and to get a partial balayage. I had shown Sophia three photos of partial balayage and how i wanted it to look more natural. After she had finished she had cut my hair so much shorter than i had asked and she did full balayage on my hair!! I was charged double the price as I wanted. I called back the next day and told them it was not what I wanted at all and they did give me my money back for just the balayage and they let me re dye my hair again for free. But, I have dark brown hair and her balayage that she gave me was these terrible blonde streaks which looked so bad and unnatural. Because she did that I went back and had them dye my hair back to normal. Over the next month, my hair started turning this terrible brassy color so i went to a different salon and had them fix it again to my natural color which i paid for. Then, a few months later my hair started turning the brassy color again because the streaks Sophia gave me started to come through again and had to pay again!!! I am so mad and would never recommend this place to anyone!!! I have had to pay so much money on my hair that I never would of had to pay if she didn't completely ruin my hair. read more

My family & I have been going to Dellaria for at least 10 years. While there are some good stylists at the Wellesley location, the salon has been a disappointment in their customer service for some time. I believe that it is poor ownership and management. At my last appointment the following occurred: The shampooist said, "Someone just buzzed me to come up....I guess I have to shampoo you because I am the only assistant here and sorry about the hot/cold water temperature being out of order." The MUSAK playlist was broken so there were very loud obnoxious radio commercials on as a background---not at all conducive to relaxation. I wanted to bring this to the attention of the owner or manager but neither the receptionist, nor my stylist would give me the business e-mails for me to contact them. (This is my only opportunity to give them some input) I do not feel like a very valued or appreciated customer at the Dellaria Wellesley salon anymore. My haircut and blow dry are in the $70-$85 range with the tip---too much for me to be treated in such a disrespectful way---even if I do like my cut! read more
