I've been going to Moss for many years. Nicole is a gem. She discusses how the previous haircut was from the last time each time in case I want to make any adjustments. She is always accommodating. The salon is very nice and everyone is friendly. read more

All I'm going to say is. I've never had a bad haircut. Until now. Devastated. Paid so much to darken my hair. Didn't change color at all and wasn't offered a refund or any compensation. I don't know what went wrong..... but whatever was done to my hair should have NEVER been done. read more

I have been a customer of Moss for over 20+ years and I am always happy when I leave whether it is a cut, color or just a blow dry. When I moved to Providence, I tried a few other salons but once I found Moss I knew I was home. Previously I had traveled to Boston for many years and Moss has the same level of professionalism and expertise that the best in Boston had. read more

Adrianna is the best for eyelash extensions! She was professional, attentive to my needs, history and concerns, and very skilled. Love the result and highly recommend. read more

I don't usually write reviews, but that being said...If you are looking for a professional,sincere,and talented color specialist Tammy is your person. My hair always looks natural and healthy. I never tell her what to do, just simply let her work her magic!..Not to mention, her personal assistant Sia is the bomb! Jody, my hair stylist,always has me looking my best. Whether it's a simple trim or full transformation, he exceeds my expectations. The entire staff and stylists at Moss are very welcoming, creating a nice friendly and relaxing vibe. So glad I discovered Moss Salon after moving from NY (after a few misses)! read more

I have been coming to Moss for over 20 years. Tammy is the only colorist who was able to get the formula just right to avoid brassy or too dark for my brown. hair. (I had tried numerous salons including very famous in NYC to solve that problem ) So, of course I've been faithfully sticking with Moss ever since! in Covid they even sent special packets and instructions for upkeep!:) Additionally, the atmosphere is lovely, professional, attentive and relaxing! I would highly recommend Moss for all your hair needs ! read more

I absolutely love Moss hair salon! Jody is beyond incredible at layers. He is an artist with hair! The entire appointment from start to finish is wonderful. The girls at the front desk were super friendly. The entire experience is lovely and relaxing. read more

Tammy is a master at color and Kelly does the best haircut ever. I've been to several top Boston salons and Moss is the best! Sia who washes and dries is so sweet and terrific too. I highly recommend them! If you want to look like you just walked out of a magazine, call them! Lori Sloper read more

Don't waste your time. 1:15 appointment...after 30 Minutes finally got up and left. No one acknowledged me after checking in. Rude and uninterested girls at front desk. read more

I have been a client at Moss for more than a decade. The salon is immaculate, staff is talented and professional and it is always an excellent experience. I always suggest Moss! read more

Tammy and Sia are exceedingly professional and go way beyond what is expected. Tammy is so talented she is the best blond colorist in RI!! I would highly recommend Moss Salon! read more

Kelly is my stylist. She colors, highlights and cuts my hair. I highly recommend Kelly for fabulous hair. I go every 5 weeks for roots, every 10 weeks for highlights and 3 cuts a year. I am booked for appointments until Jan 2023. Moss is an excellent salon with wonderful stylists. I have also been styled by Tammy, Michael, Kamil, Sia and Casey. You will be happy. read more

I moved to RI 11 years ago from NY and I was apprehensive about finding a salon that would meet my expectations and standards. From day 1 I have been completely satisfied and happy with both hair color and style and the service and people have exceeded my expectations. I have curly hair which makes it hard to find someone who truly knows how to cut my hair and Lindsay is doing an exceptional job. I also have red color which is a challenge to find a colorist who does it just right and Tammy is the absolute best! I highly recommend Moss Salon and all the professionals who work there, it's a pleasure to walk in a be greeted by Kate and the rest of the team. read more

I got my hair done yesterday 11/19 with a junior stylist named Maddie (Maddison Charrette) Not only was she rude through the appointment, did not offer to take my coat (where am I supposed to put my winter coat during the appointment?) she did this to my hair. She also clearly saw this and still left me to walk out of the door. When I called to get it fixed, they told me I would have to either see her again or pay full price for someone else to fix it. If you want to have messed up hair- totally go there!! read more

Moss Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

My first time at Moss, and i had such a great experience. Casey ( hopefully sp is correct) was exceptional. I decided to bleach my own hair during COVID quarantine, and ended up with 13 different colors from black natural underneath to lavender highlights when i was finished.. so bad lol. Casey was able to match it from root to ends with a high & lowlight. Fantastic consultation, and conversation. Casey informed me that all the stylists there are trained the same , and can produce the same results. The Salon itself is spacious yet inviting. Highly recommend read more

Had a great experience with Casey! Made me feel so good when she fixed my awful colored hair. We talked about what I was looking to achieve and she went and did her thing fixing me right up. I wished I would have taken a before and after! Being new to the area, it's always scary finding a new stylist but after today I already made my follow up, something I rarely do, so I have found my stylist! If your hair needs help I recommend Casey...plus she is really sweet which is always a plus! read more

Moss Salon - not a great picture but look at that happy face =) please excuse the flyaways as it was wicked windy out! - Hair Salons Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

This was my first time at Moss and it will absolutely be my last. Casey was my hair stylist and was very nice and I didn't expect it to come out perfect going to a salon I've never been to before but I never thought they'd go this wrong. I've provided photos for what I originally asked for and photos of what I got. She sent me home with blue hair dye all over my ears, neck, shoulders, and skin rubbed raw on my forehead. The highlights were so shockingly bad and drastic that I felt horrible about myself every time I looked in the mirror. I decided to call the salon and ask if there was any way they would be able to fix it and was super kind and understanding with them about it. They were able to fit me in before my trip abroad and attempted to fix the mess by rinsing out the blue and adding a black glaze so they would be less noticeable. The results were slightly better than the first time but as soon as I washed my hair at home for the first time my hair looked bright blue again and just as streaky. This isn't even the worst part, whatever blue dye it is that they used has literally ruined everything in my bathroom. It has stained my tub floor, shower walls, bathroom sink, hair brush and curler, pillowcases, towels, robe, shirts, you name it. They said that it should come out but it is extremely difficult even with bleach products and deep scrubbing. I attempted to dispute the $300 charge because this process has been such a mess but they denied it. I would not recommend anyone go here if you are getting a coloring job because the products they use are clearly not good quality. I would have had better luck doing it myself and wish I had known beforehand. read more

Love love LOVE! I recently helped my daughter-in-law for her wedding that we hosted at our house in Massachusetts. She had a trial appointment at a local salon and it was a total meh! experience with practitioners who didn't really listen to what she wanted. With less than a month to go, we had to find somewhere else. While Moss Salon is a 40 minute drive for us, my mother (ever particular about her hair) always swore by it. She went to Tammy for many years and as I was thinking where to go, I thought of my mother who passed away in 2017 and called Moss. Lena was available and we setup another trial appointment - perfection! Not only did she do a tremendous job both with the trial and the actual wedding day, she made my shy daughter-in-law feel very comfortable and most importantly, heard as Lena listened to what she wanted. I also had Lena do an updo and yes, perfection! She is an artist and a master at what she does. Definitely recommend :) read more

I have been going to Moss and Yelena for years and all the staff are friendly and the owner runs a quality business that makes you feel special for going there. read more

I love Moss Salon! The only place in New England I trust with my hair - and I am picky. I have moved from the area and still travel back for appointments. The staff from front to back is personable and professional. Hot tea or coffee for the asking. Sleek and charming space. Great hair care products and a broad range of prices Can't say enough. This is a first class salon read more

I called in just to check on the price for a wash and cut and the person on the phone was very rude and hung up before I could ask any of the other questions I had. read more

I arrived in Providence with a month old hair color disaster. (Another stylist had tried to give me a fresh look, which was way too dark - difficult to correct!) After researching salons in the area, I decided to try Moss Salon, based mostly on its excellent reviews. I was lucky to get an appointment with Kelly. She immediately knew what she could do to improve my color - and importantly, what would make matters worse. She found a much better base for my new roots and added highlights to brighten the darkness. The overall result was terrific, making me feel like myself again. I'll be back to see Kelly when I'm in town and will refer my Brown student and her friends as well! read more

When I first moved to Providence I was in dire need for highlights and a cut and was blessed to be assigned to Casey! She did a rockstar job w the color and cut and I've been loyal ever since. Also, the front desk ladies are stellar - so welcoming and kind and a true enhancement to the experience. Lexi in particular has been lovely! A huge smile up on arrival; Lexi compliments the overall experience and truly understands good customer service. Will continue on being a loyal customer! read more

I have been going to Moss Salon for over 5 years and have never had a bad experience. They have always given the best service and they go out of their way to make my visit pleasant. In addition my hair always looks perfect. Michael is fantastic. The color is flawless and the cut is perfect. During Covid they have done a great job making sure the visit is safe and comfortable. read more

yelena is great! This was my first haircut in 2020 due to COVID. I was so impressed. Yelena did a full color and cut in an hour. She got rid of my dark roots and matched it to my dyed color, and she didn't even need to bring out the swatches to make sure the color was the same. She's just that good. She was so efficient, which really impressed me. The cut was amazing too. She somehow knew exactly what I wanted before I even said it. I guess she has a lot of clients who are young professionals who are looking for a sleek haircut. Everybody was wearing masks and social distancing, which made me feel safer. read more

Created YELP account just to write this review. Horrible service all around. Started with very passive aggressive lady at the front who severely lacked not only customer service but also human decency. My stylist, Casey, did awful job pulling my hair as hard as she could for 20 minutes. Then she proceeded washing my hair WITHOU placing any towels underneath. And at the end not only she didn't ask basic "how you like it" but also didn't offer to review her work, which was correct considering absolute wreck of haircut she made. Bottom line, had better service and quality at a beauty school for a fraction of the cost. read more

Had the best experience at Moss Salon! Casey always gives me the best color job and I never leave disappointed! I went during the very busy holiday season and had an amazing experience with not only Casey but with the front desk girls who work there. Lexi at the front desk was so attentive and she really helped enhance my experience at the salon and was so sweet during this busy time! Can't recommend this place enough!! Thanks to Casey and Lexi for everything! read more

I love Moss Salon. I have been a client of Casey's for over a year and she is fantastic! Kate is also wonderful. I've only had one product issue and the staff immediately went above and beyond to rectify the situation. Absolutely amazing customer service. Highly recommend! read more

Over 3 years a customer now and Moss is consistently good! A beautiful space staffed with friendly, happy people. Qamil has been my stylist there since I first walked in the door and he is outstanding. Providence is lucky to have a salon like Moss. read more

Mediocre experience. One of the worst haircuts I have gotten in recent memory. The top was completely disconnected from the sides. Stylist was prompt, friendly and efficient, though I should have been more attentive to what was going on as she was cutting my hair. When I called, the next day, to see if I could get my bangs trimmed further (to blend the top and sides), I was greeted by a grumpy person at the front desk who said she'd call me back, but never did. I called again and she brushed me off. Stylist could not fit me in for a simple five/ten minute bang trim. I went somewhere else to get things fixed and I'm glad I did. I will not return to Moss. read more

Lost my information for my cut & style appointment that I made. The original phone call I was put on hold multiple times and the girl was asking "how do you put a credit card # in?" to her coworker, she was clearly frazzled. I was quoted $50 for an appt. with a junior stylist for 6pm, all was settled. Got there and I was not in their system and they looked at me like I had 5 heads when I was upset after showing them my card confirmation text and 10 minute phone log. Family & friends had great luck here and I had been excited all day, telling everyone about my new cut. Had washed and dried my hair right before, got cash so THEY wouldn't be taxed, left 40 min early as to not waste THEIR time, sat in 5pm providence traffic and paid $10 for parking because I couldn't find a street spot. They offered me an appt. the next day, I declined as I was frustrated after all my effort to get there for 6pm. They eventually said they could get me in (after hearing my mother & aunt were clients) and although visibly upset, I was there already and accepted. They came over with a "new client form" and asked what I had been quoted for my original appt. with the junior stylist, I said $50. She said "okay well the woman who is taking you now is a senior stylist so that will be $70". They were expecting me to pay extra for a mistake on THEIR end. I left so upset because of how disappointed in what was supposed to be a fun treat to myself. No way to run a business in customer service. Lost a possible life-long client and I will be sharing my experience with friends and family. read more

Came to Moss Salon to have my hair done for a black tie wedding in Newport, RI. I needed something that would stand up to the August heat and humidity during an outdoor ceremony and a night of dancing. Maddie did my hair in less than 1/2 hour and it lasted the entire night. She did a great job and I had many compliments on my hair! Highly recommend Moss Salon, ask for Maddie! read more

I'm never one to write reviews but here we go: I wanted to do something special for my wife for our 10 year anniversary so I bought her a spa day and then a haircut at Moss Salon which was down the street. I can't even begin to describe how good of a job Casey did on her hair. She came home so happy and couldn't stop talking about how much she liked it. I took her out to dinner and couldn't take my eyes off of her. Thank you so much Casey and everyone at Moss Salon for making a special night really special. read more

My go to for a haircut in Providence! Olivia does a great job cutting my hair exactly how I like and using products that fit my current need as well as recommending good at home styling products for specific concerns! Coffee and water available while you wait! Amazing salon experience for a manageable price! read more

Olivia is my go-to hair stylist. I recently hired her to do hair for my August 2018 wedding. She is amazing! Prompt, focused, and a great listener. I wanted a hairstyle that required longer hair than I had, but Olivia made it work. My bridesmaids were very happy too! Highly recommend. read more

I was very skeptical about getting a haircut at a salon since all my haircuts have been completed by a barber. However I am growing my hair out and I am not sure a barber would know what to do for a haircut. My girlfriend recommended this place so I figured I would give it a shot. The salon itself is very nice and as a man going into a salon I thought I would feel uncomfortable, but I did not at all. Everyone was very friendly and offered me coffee and other beverages as I waited for my haircut. Finally my name was called and off I went into the salon. The set up is kind of cool, it's like each hair dresser has their own little section the isn't attached to anyone else's and has their own space to work. Lena did my haircut and she was very friendly and talkative which prevented those awkward silences you get sometimes when you get a haircut. I had a great experience and my haircut came out great. I was very pleased with their services. I highly recommend it. read more

Honestly the worst salon I have ever been to. Was overcharged for my services and they refused to refund me my money back for the overcharge. When I spoke with the owner he was rude, unprofessional, and called me a liar. If I could give this salon a negative rating I would! read more

I am very disappointed with this salon and their customer service. My usual stylist was not available so they booked me with Yelenia. I have blonde hair and so does she so I figured she would know what she is doing. The first time she did my base color it was adequate . I was very disappointed in the blow dry as she was obviously rushing and I left the place feeling like wow I could have done a better job myself! I decided to give her another chance so I booked my next base color for my roots. Once again she was rushing . Threw in the color and gave me a half effort blow dry. At the end of it all She made an odd statement about my hair saying maybe we should have done highlights. It was obvious that the color applied did not match my hair and it basically was orangish brown not blonde. When I got home and looked in the mirror I was in disbelief at the color. My friend said to me what is going on with your hair? This is when it was confirmed that I was not seeing things! I tried calling the salon several times and their phones and emails were not working (a regular occurrence) . Finally a receptionist recalled back to discuss. They offered for me to come in and fix and I was being pushed to do this. I didn't really feel comfortable and decided I wanted my money back. I have emailed and called several times and they have not addressed my concern once! They refused to give me a refund and my issue almost 1.5 months later remains not addressed. They told me that Yelenia is a renter there and will not refund me. I asked receptionist to speak with the owners and she said they will not be able to help me. I wanted to express my concerns because if your are renting out a chair to someone they are reflective of your business. The salon appears cute on the surface and this is what drew me in years ago. Quamil did a nice job and SIA can provide a fabulous blow dry. They advertised that they sold Kerastase products which is what drew me here in the first place. When I showed up and they didn't have these products I was disappointed. I feel that I need to post a review so that others are not subjected to inexperienced hair coloring . Had they done the correct thing and fulfilled my request of a refund I would have felt more valued as a customer. Instead they put me in an Extremely awkward situation by asking me to come back and have my hair fixed by the very same person who ruined it in the first place . What would you do that to someone? read more
