    Three bundles. Traditional install. Loosewave. 20,20&22 inch.

    I love these ladies and they do great work. I've been through hell with my hair while trying to find a good salon. This is a good salon. It's cozy. They maintain the space well and offer a variety of services. Given a larger space these women would TAKE OVER. These are versatile, hard working women who will do their best to make sure you are happy. I highly recommend them and any of their skilled stylists. UPDATE***** I had written this before, months ago in fact. Upon realizing my review was gone for some reason, I went to leave another and here this one was. So I'll add to it. I left this salon for awhile. It was kind of a drive from my house. Admittedly: at one point I felt a little unwelcome before I took a break from the salon, but I think that I was just aware of tension that I was late for my already late in the evening appointments. I went early this time & I am so happy I went back after having received some of the worst service at another salon in Waltham and the worst hair I have ever had, from Mayvenn. The hair at Intriguing is great. They are a good weave bar; matching some of the quality options I used to have around NYC or North Jersey. It holds true to when you buy it and the price is fair. I find that it's very easy to manage, doesn't shed too much even if you cut the wefts during install and if you know exactly what look you want, these ladies will help you achieve it. There's loose talk of them doing a fundraiser. I hope they do. This is a business that deserves growth. It's not often that you find a group of dedicated people like this. I'm happy that I returned and even though it's a drive, it is well worth it because Boston has some of the worst Salons I have ever been to and I don't mean just for hair. Ladies, you know what I am talking about. I have seen some sh*t here! I strongly believe it is important for women to have good options. Safe options. RELIABLE options... Especially when you are seeking a multicultural salon. I don't think that you will regret giving these ladies a visit. I only wish that they had a little more space and some sinks for shampooing. I know that they will get there though and if I'm ever in the area after I move, I will definitely keep going back. You should note, the hair bundles are not labeled by ounce, which I strongly prefer. But they are well wefted, thick all the way to the ends, soft and durable. The salon has a variety of textures and colors. I have never tried anything but the virgin hair, but I have colored my hair from here and it reacts well, and revamps easily with some conditioning.

    I had a great experience. From beginning to end I was well taken care of. My first appointment consisted of a head measurement and I conversation about what I wanted. Nikki made sure to give me all my options since this was my first time getting a custom wig made. When I told her what I needed it for she gave her professional opinion but ultimately let me make my own decision. I didn't feel pressured to pick one over the other. Will definitely be going back.

    Excellent. I came all the way from the west coast for an event in Cambridge and had very little time to have a wig made. Nikia and Niki were able to make a custom wig in the same day for me, I came in the morning at 10 am and was able to pick it up by 3pm! I had never worn wigs before and was so nervous about trying something new, but they were so experienced, so skilled and professional I am so glad I found Intriguing Hair. I kept saying all weekend at my event that the real innovation is not happening at Harvard or MIT but in Hyde Park at Intrigue Hair. And I mean it. These ladies are professionals! Will be ordering another wig for the summer!

    What a great experience top to bottom…read more I was in town for less than 24 hours for a wedding. I quickly and easily booked a hair and makeup appointment online two days before I arrived. First win. Then I woke up to an email from the airline saying the flight was delayed an hour. Then another two hours. I called and left a voicemail as soon as I could before they were open. I told them I would probably miss both appointments if they kept delaying my flight. When it was confirmed that we would indeed take off I called them back to let them know I could probably make the makeup appointment if they could push it back and find a friend from the wedding to take my hair appointment. The lady at the front desk was super understanding and happy to switch out another wedding guest to take my place for a blow out. I made it in time to get my makeup done by Liza. She was so sweet and so professional. I only wear foundation and have lash extensions. I don't know how to put on eye makeup. I had a bright blue dress and she put in pops of blue. It was so fun and I felt fabulous! The customer service, understanding of my travel delays and final product were all so amazing. I'd come back in a heartbeat next time I have a wedding in Boston!

I did not hear back and I called again on Wednesday and was old again that she was not available. I have yet to hear back, and when I called I was told I could only email her. Which I specifically said I would rather speak with someone on the phone because there were multiple concerns with the appointment. When I was explaining how I was not available to speak another time this week because I work 12 hour days they hung up on me. I would not recommend getting your haircut here. I spent 160.00 (not including any gratuity I left) and then another 100.00 to have to get my hair fixed

    I've been blonde since I was 16. I've always been a bright sunny blonde. I had a great colorist,…read morebut she left a couple years ago and I've been looking for a new colorist ever since. I have been to many of the "best" well-known salons on Newbury St. I've always left unhappy with darker hair, ashy, muddy, etc.. it went on for so long. I was even told that your hair changes every seven years and my hair just can't get light again. These colors made me look so washed out. I hated it. I ended up going to a salon in Needham. She refused to put collar on it except for my roots. She lightened my roots and then put a toner on it. She turned my hair medium brown. I was horrified! She washed it out, put another toner on. This was a color I had never seen! I had a combination of orange and the other parts were brownish ash and greenish! I was totally freaked! And I have an event coming up this weekend. I read some reviews never thinking I would get in to anyone last minute. Lynda answered and was nice enough able to squeeze me in at the end of the day. Walking in with multicolored hair, and being told my hair can't be blonde again, I could just tell that she was going to be good. I hit the jackpot with Lynda! I'm blonde, my hair looks healthy, she gives a phenomenal blowout, and I will never go to anyone else again. Lynda is extremely knowledgeable and unbelievably talented! For the first time in so long not only was a blonde, but when I looked in the mirror I liked what I saw and I really hadn't for such a long time. Lynda' is by far the best most talented colorist in Boston! I can't tell you how glad I am to have found her.

    Lynda was so incredibly kind and knowledgeable. 10/10 would go back again. Thank you!read more

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!

She is truly a master of her craft and on top of that, a genuine person. What makes Jessica unique and ultimately, the best, is her ability to actually listen to what her clients want. For the first few appointments, Jessica asked me to show her images of hair I liked and then she really pressed me to detail exactly what it was I liked about the images (darker roots, length, layering, highlights, overall color, etc.). After only a couple of these conversations, I realized that for years I was describing to hair stylist something that was entirely different than what I actually wanted. With Jessica, going through these images and having these discussions helped us to be on the same page about what I wanted my hair to look like both in the moment as well as in the future. Using this information, she created a customized plan and timeline for me; the result is that today my hair is longer and healthier than ever with a color that I absolutely adore. Her skills as a stylist are further complemented by the exceptional level of service that she provides. Jessica is always on time and clear about pricing. She confirms appointments a week in advance and always offers flexibility if you need to reschedule; it's not uncommon for her to come in early or stay late to accommodate a client. She develops long-term relationships with her clients and gets to know them on a personal level so that she can tailor both the service and overall experience to each individual. Jessica is expensive, but I believe you get what you pay for. In this instance, superior haircare services in an exclusive single chair salon with a creative and thoughtful stylist.
