I've been going to Sahis at Park West for about six months. I came to her with a DIY box dye disaster, and she was miraculously able to fix it. She went so above & beyond for me and I feel beautiful again. Literally the best color I have EVER HAD. Highly recommend. read more

I showed her a reference photo, and the result was perfectly replicated the way I wanted! Brooke is extremely talented and I had a great experience. Original color: blonde. Hair type: medium length, lots of volume, straight read more

https://instagram.com/p/BUMNDcKgBEN/ Photos of blue hair- I feel selfish writing this review. Because I love the ability to make a same day appointment with Anna for self expression boost! This chick is fun, smart, a savvy interpreter between what I think I want and what I'll bounce away feeling a little bit more joyful about instead. Her cutting and color skills match her personal relation skills. I'm a 47 year old mother, artist, development coach. And while the trend is picking up now, I've been coloring my hair with a spectrum of colors for ages and life morphs. Colors on youth and colors on us older gals play off differently. I like bold dimension and sophistication in my blues. Color, to me, is like perfume- Something that people need to do a double-take to make sure they're seeing right, rather than coming in ahead of me. But when they see it it's very obvious and delightful! (I do enjoy a random compliment as I go about the day, and this happens often when people enjoy a pop of surprise) Anna gets that. She's a perfectionist with out the stress or attitude. She just gets better and better Best of all - these are budget conscious days. I need to stretch every dollar. And this is high quality work at a price that doesn't require a trust fund or a second job for the price of creative dignity. Feels good to support this business! read more

If you go, ask for Maggie. Im a little bias ed because she's my cousin but she made my hair look so amazing. I got my hair cut short with curtain bangs and I was pretty scared to be honest but it looks incredible! I can't stop smiling and it made me feel amazing! 10/10 recommend she made my hair look exactly how I wanted it. read more

When you make an appointment in advance for eye brow threading, and they can't find the thread, that doesn't give you the right to wax the brows instead. Never going back here again. read more

A clean and spacious salon with knowledgeable hair Stylist's and friendly atmosphere.

Anna has been cutting my two daughter's hair for years (they are 4 and 6 now) and her friendly personality & great approach to style & working with kids make her an asset to this salon. I have also received other services here including threading and waxing with Sahis and she is also amazing. The services are great & the friendly front desk always make you feel welcome, too. I highly recommend this salon. Best in the area. read more

I walked out of here with 5 extra inches of my hair cut off. I went in for my appointment told her exactly where I wanted it cut (my hair was down to my ribs and I wanted a few inches off) and ended up with a bob and "angles". I am horrified that someone could so quickly cut all of my hair off. I am beside myself that someone could mess up a simple haircut this terribly. read more

Went to this salon this past Spring. I explained that I wanted an updo with curls. I ended up with a mess of lose and uneven waves and a bobby pin to hold my hair in place. I had to go to another salon to have my hair fixed at my expense. Park West has some great stylist and some inexperienced stylist. Make sure you know who is doing your hair before you let them start. read more

A one is too much. I use to love to come here until my hair stylist decided I was no longer welcome at the salon and let me know via text message. Super unprofessional and left no explanation as to why. 4 days before my appointment. read more

Went to do my hair for a special occasion, instead of ending up with a satisfying outcomes, the hairstylist did not even wash/blow-dry my hair, she just curls it, spray a little and put bobby-pins in my hair. Only something simple and it cost $80. read more

I am a fan of Park West, Lauren does my hair. I do not know the other staff. The salon is bright, has a good product line and a plus....one of the gals made brownies the day i was there!! Thank you, Denise Patnod, Lic. Ac, Cambridge read more

I had a terrible experience at this salon. I'm SO upset about the haircut and coloring I got. The sylist I had should not be doing hair.

If you want fabulous, beautiful brows, go to Sahis. She is the only person I allow to touch my crazy eyebrows, and she always makes them perfect. Never too thin, always perfectly sculpted. GO NOW! read more

If you want a Haircut, this is NOT the place to go. The Hair cut and the Stylist are just so-so but they charge an exorbitant price. You will NOT know the price of the service until the service is done. They even have the guts to say the pricing is arbitrary. It depends on the stylist and the stylist will decide what the hair cut is worth after the cut!! Give me a break! If you want to be that arbitrary, then I would say the customer should decide what the service is worth after the service. The receptionist quoted the price as $25. After the cut the stylist decided the amount of hair cut equaled $35. Plus tips!! Just shampoo - no conditioner involved. Supercuts charges $16 for the hair-cut. Plus another $4 for shampoo and conditioner. Price is fixed and you know ahead of time. read more

I have been seeing Sahis for 3 years for threading/waxing and hair color/cut. She is fantastic. I get so many compliments on my eyebrows and my hair. I'm almost afraid to write this review for fear she'll become so popular I'll never get in to see her! The desk staff are always so pleasant and helpful too. The salon has nice touches too like complimentary water, coffee, and tea. Parking is almost always available out front. read more

I've been going to Park West Salon in Arlington, MA for over 10 years...and have had not only consistently excellent cuts and color, everyone in the salon is so pleasant and friendly - and very talented. The team there constantly attends hair shows and special classes to stay updated on latest styles/trends, techniques, products and technologies. I spent 15 modeling in NYC, Boston, Miami and LA, and went to many of the "swanky" salons in each, and not one achieved the amazing blond color I get at Park West. I dealt with issues of brassy/redness and hair that was too bleached out and dry. Park West gives me a perfect, natural looking blond and it's not overbleached! The salon also has great skin and spa treatments too! read more

I highly recommend this place to everyone. Anna does my hair, she is so friendly and very talented.As the moment you walk in to this place, you feel so welcome! read more

Sahis does to an amazing job on eyebrows (as noted in other reviews). I have only gone here to get eyebrows done from her, so I can't speak to the other services offered here, but it seems like a nice salon overall. read more

Great Salon and best massage wash! I almost fell asleep!! Great location and a friendly staff!!

Anna did my hair for my wedding and did a wonderful job! She was really nice and kept checking in to make sure that I liked her approach. I didn't do any trial so she was good about checking the direction frequently the day of my wedding, especially because I had a rough vision and a golden hair vine but didn't have the specifics laid out. Everything came out beautifully and it lasted all night long! I definitely recommend her for anybody getting married! read more

Lauren Gore has been my stylist/colorist for over 10 years and as long as she is still doing it, I will never go to anyone else for color especially! I first became her client at another salon in Belmont, MA. Her skills do not end as a phenomenal colorist and stylist. Over the course of the last 11 or 12 years, she has politely advised me on what color works best with my skin tone, in addition to the appropriate cut that compliments my face the best and is sustainable with the level of coarseness of my naturally curly hair. Lauren has impressed me so much with her skill, and up to date product and hair treatment knowledge that even though I moved out of the Belmont- Arlington vicinity over 7 years ago, I travel from S. Plymouth, MA every 8 weeks to see her at Park West for a high-light and cut. The way my hair looks after she has worked her magic on it is well the trip! Park West is a very nice salon with some real talented stylists on board. Staff is always friendly and go out of their way to make the experience a delight. read more

I've been going to Park West for years, great salon! ! They are professional and very skilled with cutting and coloring. Kathy is my stylist and she's very talented. I'm always happy when I leave! ! read more

I stumbled upon this amazing place on accident. I was actually going to the place next door, and I was early, so I popped in for a lip wax. It was the best wax experience I've ever had. And very reasonably priced. I'm so glad I found this hidden gem; and I will most definitely be going back to get my hair did! Samantha was the lady that performed my lip wax and I cannot sing her enough praises. She was great! read more

I started coming here about a year ago. Lee Ann is my stylist and she is great. She always cuts my hair exactly the way I want - sometimes it seems like she's psychic - even if I'm a little vague or unsure about how to describe what I want, my hair always comes out looking amazing! Love the products they use too. The pricing is fair and I love the convenience of online booking. Overall a wonderful salon! read more

I have never had a bad experience at Park West! Patty's been doing my hair for years, and she's awesome. When it comes to coloring, she's the best! I also had a friend go here recently, and she raved about the cut Melissa gave her. My friend has very curly hair and is rarely satisfied with haircuts, but she was thrilled with what Melissa did with her hair. read more

I went to Park West because I'm visiting from out of town and it was the highest Yelp rating close to where I'm staying. I really appreciated that they fit me in about an hour after I called, and the haircut I got was exactly what I wanted. I'm growing out my hair and was so nervous my stylist was going to chop off a bunch and set me back, but she did a great job just cleaning me up, and making it look like a haircut instead of like someone growing out their hair. She was also super friendly. After my haircut, I asked if they had any eyebrow wax appointments, and they got me in right away! The woman who did my eyebrows did an awesome job with a wax/threading combo, and didn't overwax me like so many places do. I really appreciated their ability to get me in right away, and to provide such great services! read more

I'm new to arlington, and This salon was walking distance from my house, I wanted to see if they had any availability for a blow dry, when I walked in the girl at the front desk was busy checking out a client so I decided to sit down and wait for her to become available. When she was done checking out the women, she seemed to of gotten distracted by something else, and DIDN'T once ask if I was all set or if I had an appointment. After about 6 minutes of waiting the girl gets up walks to the back, comes back then sits back down at the desk, she still didn't seem to have notice me. To be honest with you I couldn't tell if she was a stylist or if she was just someone's friend that actually worked there. On top of all this her outfit was HORRIFIC! I wouldn't want a stylist going near me dressed like that, nor should a manager EVER approve of what she had on. it was NOT business appropriate at all. She basically had ZERO real clothes on. Needless to say after being a ghost for ten minutes I decided to leave the salon and bring my service else where. read more

I thought that these gals were all extremely nice and professional. Casey especially did a great job on my eyebrows and I will definitely be back! read more

I've been seeing Jean for years now, and while she's a very nice lady, I never come out with what I wanted. My haircuts always seemed like an imitation of what I wanted rather than what I actually wanted. I understand that cutting hair based off a photo is hard, but I wasn't really looking for complicated stuff. But my most recent experience has finally decided for me that I won't be going back. I made the appointment for a color, and explained on the phone that I wanted to get my hair to a light lilac color (nothing particularly too difficult considering I'm in the medium-brown range), and she seemed to completely understand and that gave me a lot of confidence. She even had me go in the next day to look at colors and decide which one I wanted. Awesome, great. I get there for the appt. and both her and an intern of sorts are trying to convince me out of it, telling me it'll be very expensive and take forever. I had done my research and I knew this and that's what I wanted. I continuously told them I understood, but the light lilac is what I wanted. They made me feel as if they just didn't want to do it/had better things to do. Jean starts doing my hair and while I don't have a lot of coloring experience (other than box dye that is) it feels a bit weird? She's lightening random strips of hair? Rather than what I was expecting would be a whole head bleach. But I say to myself 'she's the professional here', so whatever. She finishes 'lightening' and moves onto the actual dye itself. This is where it got worrying. The in-house Paul Mitchell colorist is practically babysitting her and telling her how to do EVERYTHING. Then, half way through, she has to leave and help another customer and leaves me with the interns (who by the looks of their beautifully colored hair that they did themselves may actually know more than she does). But that really pissed me off because from my research, color jobs like these could take 4+ hours and she as a professional should've known that yet she scheduled other appointments? In the end I came out with bright deepish purple hair that while looked okay was not what I wanted and faded in two weeks (something that's happened before to me, and she was informed about but insisted lightening my hair would keep the color in) read more

I have been getting my hair cut and highlighted by Jeanne for years. She also cuts my sister and mother's hair and all three of us love her! She has a great eye for what will look good on people and a knack for steering you towards flattering looks. I have never had anything less than excellent customer service from everyone here and I look forward to every appointment! read more

This is a wonderful salon. I just moved back to the suburbs and went to many different salons whole living in the city. Park West is better than all of them! The staff is warm, friendly and skilled at what they do. I see Anna and she recently transformed me from a reddish brown to a bright blonde. I had been a redhead for four years so my hair had a ton of color build up in it. I'm now q blonde, and my hair doesn't feel damaged because she made sure to maintain the integrity of it. This was a complicated job, and she pulled it off - she's super talented and I recommended her. I've seen other stylists and had good experiences with them as well...everyone at Park West knows what they are doing. I love that they are so laid back and kind...they don't make you feel like you should be dressed up to get your hair done, and they don't push products. Can't say enough good things about this salon..check it out. read more

I have been getting my hair cut and colored here for about 8 years now and I will never go anywhere else. They always do an amazing job and the staff is incredibly sweet and accommodating. And although I don't get it done very often, I've also been very pleased whenever they've waxed my eyebrows. I would/do recommend this salon whenever possible! read more

I have been a client of Park West for MANY years. I have found nothing but top notch treatment at this salon. When I had wrist surgery a few years ago they really helped me out.
