P10 is my go to spot. It's very hard finding a trustworthy black hair salon but this is the place to go. They are kind, patient and knowledgeable. I travel from Somerville to come here and it's worth it. Kanessa the owner wants everyone to look and feel better. All the stylists are great. read more

Perfect 10 gets a perfect five (stars) from me. The location is optimal and centrally located in West Roxbury, MA and the salon space is clean and welcoming. Kanessa is the stylist who came highly recommended and true to form, she is a hair virtuoso! Her artistry with weave installation, conditioning, scalp care, and color services is unmatched. My hair went from basic to extraordinary under her care! Prior to arrival, we had a great consultation to prepare for the appointment. She took the time to understand what I wanted and expected. She helped me prepare by making suggestions about the type of hair that would be best for the service. Once the services began, she paid attention to my concerns and pivoted accordingly. I felt seen, heard, and comfortable through the whole process. Kanessa's expertise and dedication made the entire session delightful. The results? Absolutely stunning! For top-notch hair transformations, Kanessa is the ultimate choice! read more

Perfect 10 was recommended to me by my sister. I just went in to get a haircut to feel the place out. Since I am a Full-time wheelchair user, I was surprised that when I got there I was able to have full service. There is a bit of an incline and a tough bump to manage getting into the shop if you're without a caregiver or helper. However, inside it is easy to roll around and the chairs for the sinks and the dryer were both easy to transfer in and out of my chair to. I will definitely be going back when I am ready for a real style. read more

I was serviced for a slick press and trim by Shakeita (ladylane designs). Let me start by saying starting since the beginning of the pandemic, I have been super anxious in general but also insecure/self conscious about getting my hair done. I let myself go for the last 2 years and I'm now in a space to start taking care of myself mentally and physically. With all that said (and explained to Shakeita), I had such a great experience. She was thorough and did my hair amazingly. I will be sticking with a schedule going forward and happy to find a stylist to kick start my health hair journey. read more

There are elements of Perfect 10 Unisex Salon that I really appreciated. I called with a tight timeline looking to get my hair done for my first professional musical. I was given an appointment for the next day, which in the Black hair community is hard to come by, so I was elated! They also had time to fit my partner in to get his hair braided down in cornrows, so we decided to go together. Unfortunately, our assigned stylist experienced a family emergency in the early morning hours. I will NOT fault her for that. Life happens and we want everyone to be safe and healthy. My partner received a cancellation text, but I did not. I did not know we were assigned to the same stylist, so I proceeded to go in to my early appointment as scheduled. When I arrived, the salon was dark and locked and I instantly felt this going south. I gave it about fifteen minutes before calling and the owner picked up on her personal phone. She said she could take me and she would be over in a few minutes. Unfortunately, her child was home sick and I can't blame her for making the decision to stay and ask me to come tomorrow instead. I appreciated the flexibility and the commitment. Unfortunately, when I got to the salon, she did not seem to understand or remember that I had asked for passion twists. I brought water wave hair perfect for passion twists and explained the look I want. While she was juggling about three other clients, I ended up with my hair braided down. I stopped and asked her if that was correct because I had never done passion twists that way, and she said that's how passion twists/crochet's work. I expected individual twists, no cornrows. I was already hours into the appointment being squeezed between different clients that I just let it go. She crocheted the hair into the braids and I ended up looking like a mixed Hermione Granger if her polyjuice potion mishap had turned her into a lion. I was so disappointed and felt unheard despite how clear I was. My partner was shocked when I got into the car because he knows that this was definitely NOT passion twists. I don't know if it was a miscommunication, or just a hectic day, but I did end up having to twist my hair myself anyways before opening night, which was the entire reason I wanted to go to a salon in the first place. The stylist was super kind and the vibe in the shop was one of community and care, so I was surprised with my outcome. read more

Idk why this salon has so many one stars! I got a shampoo and big chop! Kanessa was amazing 10 out of 10! She really listened to me about the damaged hair that needed to go. She checked in to make sure I was comfortable with how the cut was going multiple times. I finally found my home salon!! read more

Serious heat damage. I have natural and besides split ends have a normal 3b/3c curly hair. I haven't straightened my hair in over a year. This had been the third time that I have seen Kanessa. For silk presses and once to highlight. The last time I wanted a silk press for my college graduation. She washed and detangled my hair great. My eyes were closed for some parts of the preparation but I don't remember any heat protectant products being used. It's been over a month since my graduation and I have many strands and sections of my hair that are still limp. I've had to cut multiple curls off from high up because there is just no curl happening at all. I will not be returning and I am even more disappointed that this is a black hair salon and they ruined my natural curls. read more

I recommend Kanessa and the entire hairstyling team who will assure your satisfied and looking fabulous when you leave the salon. As a customer its always my responsibility to contnue my own treatments and haircare. I recommend Perfect 10, they are phenomenal hair salon! read more

Totally destroyed my girlfriend's natural curly. Between the chemical & thermal burns to her scalp regrowth is impossible to parts of her scalp. The owner claims to be a "colorist "....Really??? I believe Rule 101 would be never leave bleach in hair for over 30 minutes unless you intend on the hair literally melting off & irreversible damage, which is exactly what happened. Rather she didn't know what the heck she was doing or it was done on purpose. Either way at the very least it was gross negligence. Shameful & could care less about her fraudulent rebuttal...Shameful read more

I got a silk press done here in June 2022z The results were beautiful. The service was great and the hairstylist who did my hair was very kind. But... when I decided to wash my hair two weeks later, Many parts of my hair are now just straight. I tried to do treatments to encourage the curls to come back but they're gone unfortunately. The worst part it's from the root to close to my ends that are straight. My ends are slightly curly. So if you want your curls to stay intact, I wouldn't recommend this place. read more

Updated: A month after leaving this salon, I was my hair only to find immense heat damage. The stylist said my curl pattern would come back with time and it did not. I should've know because my hair never reacts that way to heat. I've had to cut my hair since because there was heat damage at the roots and ends. Unfortunately I can no longer recommend this salon. I've been looking for a great salon in Boston for the past 2 1/2 years. Been to some that I liked but none that I fell in love with. That changed with Perfect 10! I visited this past week and got a silk press, moisture treatment and cut with Kanessa. Everything about the appointment was perfect. She took time to ask what my hair goals were, explained the process as she went and was personable the whole time. My thick 4C hair is silk pressed to perfection. Friends are asking if it's relaxed because my roots are laid but I have the volume and body of a perfect press. Needless to say, visit this salon and see Kanessa! Check out their IG page for examples of their work @perfect10unis read more

Shakeita was wonderful. She asked about any allergies and issues with my hair and scalp, was very gentle with the shampoo/conditioner, and gave an amazing hair cut. I let my hair grow out too long during the pandemic and came in with a picture of what I was looking for. Shakeita replicated the picture and even improved on it to give my hair more body. I've gone to a couple other hair salons in the neighborhood and this is hands down the best haircut. read more

ATTENTION CURLY NATURALISTAS! The only reason why I gave two stars instead of 1, is because I've only received one service, and want to be fair. Unfortunately, that one service was enough to damage my hair COMPLETELY. Severe heat damage means I must now cut off all of the dead hair that continues breaking daily. I cannot speak for any other service, other than the Silk Press I received. I do not recommend the silk press. I got my hair Silk Pressed in November and December, and I wanted to wear it curly, and it would not return to its natural pattern. I can feel the difference between the new growth and the silk pressed hair. Whatever method is used to ensure your hair stays straight, will certainly do enough damage to keep it straight. It is now July and I have done EVERYTHING humanly possible to preserve and bring my healthy hair back. Unfortunately, it is dead and now I'm going to have to cut it all off and start over. (My hair was at my shoulders from the sides and upper back). I've already done one cut (chin length) and it wasn't enough. Please, do NOT get a silk press if you love your curls and healthy hair. read more

I definitely will get a perfect 10 five stars!. I discovered while sitting in Shanika's chair she's a stylus there's a difference in getting a professional hair do are just going to the corner salon or in someone's house.Shakeita Was professional she was nice she could read this old lady's mind and know what I want it done to my hair. It's nice to walk at a salon with a beautiful hairstyle but it's even better to walk out a salon knowing that your hair was treated and whatever it needed to have healthy hair was given to you so for that Shaniqua definitely a five and I most definitely will be back read more
