I don't know how to do my own make up to save my life, so I came here to get it done for my cousin's wedding. The girl who did my makeup (I apologize, it was a while ago and I have forgotten your name!) was very nice and also was able to make me look the best that I could while still imitating the example that I wanted. She was able to make my features pop and minimize the ones I wanted to deemphasize, and I showed up at that wedding looking like a million bucks! read more

I started going here when my long term stylist moved to this salon. Recommend avoiding like the plague- they cycle through employees extremely frequently. Every time I went there, they had new people at the desk, as assistants, and no one stays long. Kenzie was great as was Brigitte- both gone. The owner is extremely difficult. There's an odd, kooky vibe. My stylist is great but I can't speak to others because no one stays long enough. Thank goodness my stylist moved to a new salon. read more

I have been going to the salon for a few years now and its a great place! Maura has been doing my hair and is always great! Its a very relaxing atmosphere with plants. I love getting an essential oil when my hair gets washed! I recommend going to this salon! read more

I LOVE THIS SALON and ALL of the Stylists. Everyone is talented and flexible with last minute appointments. Please try this salon - you will not regret it! read more

Kenzie's skincare facial is the best! Really enjoyed the plant derived ingredients and the honey mask tapping

Wonderful salon with the nicest team around. Kiara, Bridgette and Maura are all great at what they do and super sweet. Ive been a client for a couple of years. Now my mom, son and granddaughter are also clients. Beautiful relaxing salon with a passionate team of great people. I highly recommend. read more

Was a bit hard for me to find since I moved there but I went for an eyebrow wax appointment with the kiara she is the best she did such a great job with my eyebrows definitely going back! read more

If I could give a million stars to Kiara I would! After years and years of just settling for what other hair stylists elsewhere did to my hair, which ranged from using Sally Beauty Hair Color Dye and charging me insane Boston prices in hopes I would never figure it out, to a very new stylist dumping all sorts of colors in my hair and ruining it (it was woody woodpecker red and tan and a little orange), to a keratin treatment which was done incorrectly and fried out my hair, to finally another who tried to convince me to grow out my color so I can finally go blonde! Her recommendation required me to walk around in public for months with 5 inches of nasty mousy natural colored hair loaded with more grey than I would like to admit. I finally said to hell with this! I found Kiara! Immediately, and in one visit, Kiara made all my hair dreams come true! She was able to get me to be a blonde but what was most impressive, she did it in the most safest way possible for my hair. When other stylists were scared and made excuses, Kiara rolled up her sleeves and went right to work! I will not let anyone else touch my hair. Ever. Kiara's salon/spa is absolutely a delight to visit. I always say there is something interesting to look at at every corner and every wall. It is tastefully decorated and sooo relaxing! Kiara has such an eye for what she does. She uses top of the line products and keeps up to date with trends. My hair is a million times healthier since I been going to her. I recently decided to shorten the length of my hair. During the consultation, Kiara totally understood what I was asking for and gave me the best cut ever. Of course, the color is always on point! When I say I get compliments about my hair all the time, I am not lying. I have had people I see on the streets near my work stop me to compliment me on my hair! All the time! I highly recommend Kiara for all of your beauty needs!!! read more

I came across Kiara's Instagram for bridal hair and makeup about 3 months before my wedding. My hair was not the shade I wanted and my former hairdresser couldn't commit to my date. I came into the salon for a cut and color before locking Kiara in for the wedding. Kiara is absolutely amazing. She was able to get my hair to the perfect shade of blonde in 2 colors and I booked her immediately for the wedding. After talking about my ideal hair, we decided to put in extensions. The color, length, and volume are amazing and I couldn't be happier with the results. Kiara took amazing care of me on my wedding day. My hair and make up came out perfectly. Jamie and Krista worked alongside and my bridesmaids were gorgeous. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I will continue going to Kiara's salon. read more

Sometimes 5 Stars isn't enough! Kiara and Krista came to my bridal party's wedding makeup and it was beyond PERFECT. To start, they sent a schedule of when they would work with each bridesmaid weeks before the day! This was super helpful and removed any stress on the morning of.

Wow, best salon experience ever. Kiara did an incredible job, from the initial consultation, and throughout the entire process. I was making a major change to my hair in color and in cut, and I was nervous about how this would go, but she patiently helped me work through what I wanted and then did an incredible job - I couldn't be happier! I will add that Kiara's personality is beautiful and her staff is warm and welcoming. The salon really has an awesome vibe. So glad I found this place! read more

I wish I could give Kiara more than 5 stars! I had been coloring my own hair for years and it got to the point where I thought my hair was ruined! It was course, falling out, and just did not feel healthy. I went to Kiara and she got my hair in such great shape that I just Love it now!! She tries different colors and highlights and I trust her completely! I am always getting compliments on my hair. She is definately my Hair Magician!!! Krista is awesome as well! I've seen her perform magic on others and am always impressed. Wouldn't go anywhere else, ever!! read more

Today was my first time experiencing Kiara Mooney Salon & Spa and they've definitely gained a loyal customer. The salon is amazing from all their focused safety protocols they follow to the detailed services they provide. Samantha was outstanding and accommodated everything I wanted for my hair from highlight to cut and style. Shea was kind. I had the most amazing experience overall. I highly recommend them! read more

I have been getting my hair done by Kiara for two years now. I change my hair often, so it's important to have a hairstylist that has patience and honesty. If I ask her to do my hair a certain color and she knows it's not going to look good on me, she'll be honest BUT make another suggestion. I've never left the salon chair unhappy with her doing my hair. From red, to brown, to blonde, and long hair to a bob cut. I love all of my hair styles by Kiara. Kiara has also done my hair/makeup for a wedding I attended and I received nothing but great compliments. Additionally, I was IN a wedding where she did hair/makeup for the Bride and hair for the bridesmaids. All of the wedding guests were complimenting us all evening. Kiara is fantastic at what she does. She's outgoing, friendly, attentive, professional and beyond talented at what she does. I recommend her to everyone and anyone I know looking for a hairstylist. read more

If you want to leave the salon with a ton of confidence and a pep in your step, this is where it's at!

Love, love, love this salon!!! The service is top notch, they have very safe COVID practices in place, and the salon is gorgeous. I highly recommend it! read more

I came here to fix a bad haircut from a different salon. The service was 100% from the second I walked through the door. Krista was awesome and was able to give me exactly what I was looking for. The only downside was that I couldn't tip on my card, but thankfully there was an atm downstairs. I will absolutely be back! read more

I went here to get my hair & makeup done. I'd give them 10/10 for hair updos. The salon clearly has really good, qualified hairstylists but I'm afraid I can't say the same about the makeup application. I want to be fair to the actual makeup artists who work there and not generalize. I think I just got someone who is clearly NOT a makeup artist which is unfortunate because I really needed my makeup to look good for the event that I was attending that day. I don't want to mention names as times are very difficult right now but my suggestion to the owner is to please pleaseeee only assign people with real experience to apply make up because you're potentially ruining someone's day/important event. I was also very disheartened to see the quality of the eye shadow palette and the very limited options that they had on hand. I hate to say this but I own better products/ brands than they do. Long story short, I had to redo my eye makeup. I wear makeup on a daily basis and let's just that I have mastered enough to not look like an ashy ghost. I guess I was just wrong in wanting a "professional look" that day. Btw, I asked for a natural, wet eye look which the "makeup artist" couldn't achieve because she simply didn't have the right products nor the experience or technique. My eyes weren't even prepped! The so-called smoky eye turned out to be an ashy smudge? Anyway, my advise,..ask who is doing your makeup and look them up!! Ask for pictures of their clients. That should give you an understanding of their work and whether or not they know their craft. read more

Typical last minute. My hair looks like I have JUST returned from filming Survivor. And I lost. Need cut and color NOW! Find Kiara on Yelp, clients love her, what's this? ONLINE BOOKING? Love Salon Target! Find time that day and I'm in with Krista who is, adorable! I let her color my hair first meeting and love it! She nails my curly mass of hair. Great salon. Dedicated talent. Ya gotta go! read more

Kiara is simply the best! I have been going to her for about two years and have always left the chair happy. She knows what works for each client, listens to what you are looking for and works her magic to create great color, cuts and treatments (I highly recommend the Brazilian Blowout)! I have always bounced around from hair salons trying to find a stylist that I am comfortable with and that I know will always do what I am looking for. It is nice to go to a stylist that you trust, is so friendly and a true professional. Her location is so easy to get to, plenty of parking and is gorgeous! read more

I got married June 3, 2017. Kiara Mooney made the bridal trail enjoyable, comfortable, and fun! She was also very informative. I fell in LOVE with my hair & make up at the trail & even more the day of the wedding! Kiara really listened to what I wanted.The make up felt light on my face the entire night! My hair & my face looked AMAZING from start to finish even through the tears! She is truly very talented and kept me laughing! I highly recommend Kiara Mooney for hair & make up! Krista is AWESOME! She helped with my bridesmaids on June 3, 2017. They felt comfortable with her and loved her work. My bridesmaids looked beautiful! She is very talented and a fun person to talk to! She also did my post wedding haircut and I absolutely LOVE it! I highly recommend Krista for hair and make up! Jamie also helped with my bridesmaids' and mothers' hair and make up for my wedding on June 3, 2017. Everyone was so happy with how they looked! They all looked beautiful because of Jamie's talented work! Her energy and great personality as well as Kiara's and Krista's really made my morning fun and easy! I highly recommend Jamie for hair and make up! read more

Gorgeous salon with amazing service and professional and personable staff. State of the art location and services. Spa services also amazing as Jason who does the massage services is spectacular.

It is always a pleasuring visiting the salon and you are guaranteed to always leave happy! I couldn't ask for a better salon experience and would recommend the salon to anyone! read more

I've been going to Kiara for about 4 years now and she is the absolute best. I've done some experimenting with adding color for the first time and the length of my hair (and most recently bangs!) and I always trust Kiara to help provide guidance and make my hair dreams come to life. Kiara and Krista also did the hair and makeup for my wedding and they were so amazing - so fun to hang out with that morning and everyone looked beautiful. I've had a bunch of people ask me who my hair and makeup artist was that day because they want to refer her to people they know, can't get much of a better endorsement than that! In the salon the team is amazing and everyone is so kind and warm, I love coming in. And, not to mention, the new space is GORGEOUS and I feel like I'm being transported to some amazing relaxing spa where all my troubles just disappear :) so happy to have found Kiara and her amazing team! read more

I absolutely love the haircut I got from Krista. It was my second time seeing her and I cut off 6+ inches my hair. Krista is awesome and I've received so many compliments on my hair. She is also really reasonably priced. To top it off, the salon is beautifully decorated! I'll be back soon! read more

Kiara was exceptional! She came highly recommended by not one but two other brides that had worked with Kiara for their own weddings and they had nothing but wonderful things to say. From the moment I reached out Kiara was professional, helpful, communicative and knowledgeable. She was patient will all my questions and my updates about who was getting 'made-up' and the plan for the day. Fast forward a year later and we are rescheduling things, downsizing and literally coming up with a brand new wedding day. Kiara didn't miss a beat and was flexible and helpful in figuring out what was possible. Her salon is taking amazing precautions during the pandemic, and I never once was nervous being there. Kiara had great suggestions once I showed her what I was thinking in my trial run, and she made it come to life both then and on the day of my wedding. She was calm and efficient on the day of my wedding, making the whole day way less stressful! I would recommend Kiara 100 times over to any bride looking for someone they can trust with their wedding hair and makeup, she is creative, efficient and so clearly in love with what she does! read more

Kiara was so wonderful and fit a blow dry into her very busy schedule! Thank you so much for styling my hair and making it last for two days!!! Her studio is wonderful and if I lived in the area I would use her for everything! Thank you again and I hope to see you soon!! read more

I recently went to Krista for the first time and was thrilled with the result. The salon is cozy and welcoming, and all of the employees were friendly. Krista took the time to understand what I was looking for and did a great job. They also offer online scheduling, which is convenient. I'll be back! read more

I went to Krista today for a reiki treatment and an aroma touch massage and I honestly felt the most relaxed I have felt in a long time. I felt like my body relaxed and meditated completely. Krista was absolutely incredible. She is kind and has an exceptional skill in reiki. I highly recommend that you try reiki with Krista. The journey was something I have never experienced in my life and I feel so balanced and at peace. Thank you so much Krista for an amazing treatment!!!!! read more

I'm thrilled to finally be able to say I've stopped my search for the perfect hairstylist. I love changing it up. But, I've never been satisfied. I've been everything from bleach blonde to blue-black. Naturally, I have thick, auburn extremely curly hair. I've now been coming to Kiara for about a year, we have gradually found the coloring that works for me. She is so patient! I absolutely LOVE my hair. I'll never go to anyone else. I get compliments from total strangers. I now understand why people are so loyal to their hairstylists! read more

Kiara is true professional. I had her do my hair and makeup for my engagement photos and it came out fabulous! It's clear she has experience working on photo shoots as the makeup photographed really well. Kiara is friendly, talented and passionate about her work. I highly recommend her! read more

Kiara has been doing my hair for almost 2 years and she is AMAZING. Whether you walk in knowing exactly what you want to do with your hair or, if like me, you walk in having no clue what to do with your hair- you will always leave looking and feeling beautiful! Kiara has pure talent when it comes to coloring, cutting and styling hair. I have thick/curly/wavy hair and she always cuts (and colors) it perfectly! Not only does she work hair miracles she is a very genuine, sincere person! read more

What can I say except for that Kiara is by far the best stylist I've been to. I've been going to her for about 4 years now and have been amazed since day 1. I was referred to Kiara from my neighbor when she came home with a fabulous haircut. I immediately needed to know who she saw. I booked my first apt right away and won't let anyone else touch my hair. Not only does she use the best products but she listens!! I know we have ALL been to stylists that don't listen to us. She's honest, my color shines and she's on the cutting edge. I have found my hair home and a true friend in Kiara. read more
