I've been going to Ali for years and I can confidently say she's the absolute best!! She did my hair for a few years before she moved away to California and I just went back to her for the first time since she returned to Boston/Stilisti. I've tried soooo many salons & stylists to get my hair the perfect blonde and no one has mastered it like Ali. She takes the time to sit and talk with you at the start of each appointment to help you understand what you really want and explain the technique and reality behind the inspo photos you find on instagram. So so thankful shes back in the Boston area and would 10000% recommend her to anyone who's looking to get a color and cut that makes you feel truly beautiful!! read more

I've been going to Stilisti for 3 years and it's always the best experience. Ali is incredible! She makes me feel so welcomed and heard. She truly gives the best advice and delivers amazing color and cut every single time. My hair is the best it's ever been and I am always looking forward to seeing her again! read more

What a great experience starting with the great greeting from a kind and wonderful man at the reception. No attitude, extremely helpful. Ali colored and cut my hair and thankfully fixed my color! I'm pretty particular and I booked 2 appts in advance so that tells you what a genuinely great experience I had. Took some looking but I found it! read more

I've been going here for about 4-5 years. It's super pricey, but you get what you pay for ... which is excellence. I've had 3 stylists here, and they've all been amazing. The location is in the heart of Newbury Street, so it's easy to get to. It's also so cute inside and very clean. I always feel very pampered when I'm here. I love that they have Nespresso to serve while you're waiting. Also, the front desk staff are absolutely fabulous!!! They are so welcoming and friendly. They truly make this place a great experience. read more

Beautiful salon on Newbury Street in Boston. Carla is amazing!! Excellent color and cut. Highly recommend.

I cannot rave about this salon more. I don't think there's a more talented group of people in Boston. And if you are worried about the pandemic (who isn't?) I can tell you the owner has gone above and beyond safety measures for the salon- temperature check, screening questions, an air sanitizer! There were only 3 stylists in today, giving plenty of room for social distancing. The entire salon is wonderful, but Alexandra is extraordinary. She is a true artist. She understands color, lighting, dimension, and makes you leave feeling like a million dollars. Just stop reading this and make an appointment. read more

Obsessed with Ali here. She's the only woman I trust with my hair!!! And believe me, I don't trust anyone with my hair. The salon is clean, super friendly, has yummy coffee and m&ms, and is an overall retreat from your day. They make it super easy to book online or on the phone, they send you reminders when your appointment is coming up, and you get a referral bonus if you refer friends! read more

Kylee is a miracle worker. She can quite literally do it all. I've had a color done with her and even a Keratin treatment. Absolutely consider booking with her! read more

I saw Ali (pronounced Ally) She is talented, patient and always makes you feel comfortable. I was sitting in her chair almost in tears after going to another Newbury Salon only to have the guy botch my hair(took almost 7 inches off!) She really cares about her work and is a perfectionist. I was the last client at the salon and it was well past their closing time. she didn't rush through the process to get me out. She was determined to restore my hair and did it with a smile the entire time! read more

A couple reviews in one, but the short of it: Kayla is phenomenal and Stilisti was the most lovely place to get my bridal hair and makeup done (special props to Allison A. for my makeup). Kayla has been outstanding, not only in making my hair incredible for years now, but also in being so kind and thoughtful to me AND my family. I moved to the south six years ago, and I literally fly back to Boston to get my hair cut. I have not found anyone else who can match her expertise. She knows all hair types, and she is fantastic with mine (Indian, curly, fine, frizzy). I can guarantee you won't regret booking with Kayla! Kayla, Allison A., and Nathaniel made my day *so* special. I highly recommend getting your bridal hair/make-up done with these incredible artists. They were so welcoming to my family, including making my niece feel so special. They thought of every little thing with incredible attention to detail, (e.g. making sure I had blotting sheets, styling the orchids in my hair perfectly, etc.). My hair and make-up survived PERFECTLY after me walking several miles around Boston in 90 degree weather for four hours. Highly, highly recommend!! read more

I've been going to this salon for about a decade, back when it was called Jean Pierre Salon. This review is admittedly long overdue. I won't trust anyone else to touch my hair because they truly are the best at what they do. From bobs to bangs and everything in between, Stilisti always gives me a stellar cut. I was really sad when my previous stylist there moved away maybe four or five years ago, but I ended up seeing Ali instead. As soon as I met her, I knew I was in great hands. Ali talked me through my hair products and (very low-maintenance) routine. She recommended some new shampoo and conditioner for me, which made my fine hair as volumous and healthy as it's ever been. Ali always goes above and beyond and is proud to be a perfectionist at her job. The detail she gives to each cut, whether it's just a trim or a new style, really shows. She's also incredibly sweet and friendly and just a joy to be around. The whole team makes it a welcoming, fun, and relaxing experience. Shout out to Jay for always greeting me by name and with a big smile! I should note that the prices here are reasonable, especially for the quality and the fact that they're on Newbury Street. Prices also vary based on stylist (you can choose to see a junior stylist, the owner of the business, or anyone in between). I absolutely love coming into Stilisti every time, and I know I'm in the best care possible. I really can't imagine going anywhere else to get my hair cut! P.S. The picture below is one of my first haircuts from Ali a few years ago. read more

I saw Ali here after she came highly recommended from a friend. I had an unfortunate experience at another salon in back bay, and was really embarrassed and upset with how it turned out. Ali agreed to come in early to help me out (I have an event this weekend and simply couldn't show up in the state I was in), and she absolutely nailed it. Not only was she able to soften the short, choppy cut I had, but she was kind and compassionate. She took the time to understand what I wanted, the texture of my hair, and how I like to style it. She thoroughly explained everything she was doing, and came up with a plan of how we could grow out the damage that was previously done. She is worth every single cent, and the passion for what she does really comes through in her work. Can't recommend enough. read more

Best Manicure in Boston? Yes, with Bella it really it is... not only according to me, but also according to the Improper Bostonian!! For anyone wanting to try Bella or looking for her from the past, she is on the move in the New Year... just down the street to Studio 9 at 9 Newbury (617-267-9990). Book now ~ your hands will thank you :) read more

I love this salon, it's recent re-location (same street, same side of the street, just a few doors down)also comes with super comfortable chairs which is important as you patiently wait to see the hair transformation. Its also a plus the staff is incredible and highly educated. This is a salon you can trust. Styled by Ashley Seal. read more

Stilisti Salon - Before vs. after, truly amazing - Hair Salons Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Jaime is seriously beyond amazing. I started going to her about 4 years ago after an ombré disaster at a different salon, and it has been all magic ever since. She can create any look you bring her, and is honest about what will and won't work for your hair. She has slayed every single cut, color, and style I have ever asked for. Jaime is also just about as nice, hilarious, and real as it gets- she is the best!! read more

I started out as a client at Jean Pierre, and when that salon was acquired by Stilisti, I ended up losing my stylist that I had been seeing for a couple years. Fast forward- when I needed someone new, I lucked out and got booked with Ana. I have now been seeing Ana for ~2 years. She is the best stylist and colorist I've ever worked with. She cares so much about making your hair look wonderful and matching it with your personal style. I had a pretty alternative wedding (10am @ city hall), and she ended up giving me a gorgeous up-do full of braids which I went home and SLEPT ON to have ready to go the next morning. It looked CRAZY amazing!!! She spent so much time getting it right and I couldn't help but cry when I saw it. She is the best I recommend her to everyone I meet! read more

Andrew is by far the best stylist that I have had in Boston. I have really long think hair. Like Rapunzel long. It takes forever to style, and can be horrible for a stylist to glaze, highlight, style - you know, stuff I ask for. Andrew never rushes, he is super thorough and highlights the best part of my hair without taking any shortcuts to save on time! The reception staff is friendly and accommodating, a great selection of product, and a comfortable space, even when its busy. I would recommend this place and Andrew to anyone with unruly long locks! read more

Alexandra is the best hair stylist I've ever had, hands down. She is a master of her craft, so gifted both in understanding hair and also connecting with clients. She is a breath of fresh air, sunshine on a stormy day, and she will make you laugh like you've always needed to. I had her for a stylist for years at Stilisti and then booked her for my wedding. It was so special to have her there with me that morning. A familiar face with trusted hands. She is also incredibly dedicated to educating herself and others, which keeps her on top of her game. Highly recommend miss Alexandra to make your beauty come front and center. read more

Paid 2 tows, found parking (it's a nightmare finding parking there, used a lot at $30). Arrived there 9:45. Gentleman looks at me abs says: "she'll see you in a bit, come back closer to 10am". Gentleman calls me 9:50-something canceling the appointment because the professional suddenly got Covid. I guess they didn't appreciate I'm a foreigner and I have an accent. read more

Such good quality for everything I've ever needed with my hair! Easy booking, amazing staff, especially Morgan, she always recommends the perfect products for my hair and exceeds my expectations with style and color. Such a welcoming environment that I always look forward to coming to. read more

This rating is long overdue and much deserved !!! The salon itself is clean and modern, the staff is extremely professional and friendly, great lighting and offers plenty of beverages while you wait for your color to set. As a lifelong NY'er- I moved to Boston, and of course, as a blonde, I was deeply concerned about finding a stylist like the one I had in NY. That not be the case any longer. The best thing about the salon is JAIME M-after her cutting & coloring my hair I forgot all about my NY guy. My hair color came out PERFECT (as it does every time) she is knowledgeable and well versed in her craft (and as a blonde, we are the most discerning clientele out there). The haircut she gave me was equally as fabulous!! JAIME is incredibly detailed, precise, takes her time and it's obvious that she takes great pride in her work. Trust me, next time you need your hair to look AMAZING book an appt at Stilisti with JAMIE. I no longer go to the rest, I have found the very BEST! Thank you. read more

I am LOVING my new hair and my stylist Ali! I honestly thought I had good hair before (boy was I wrong. See the before and afters) I came to Ali now I have GREAT hair!!

Keep in mind this is just after one visit! Salon and Ali were amazing from start to finish! Have I mention now I get non stop compliments on my hair??? read more

Most beautiful salon in Boston. Extremely professional, relaxing and clean. The wide variety products are the best in the industry. They are located upstairs on the 2nd floor. They do have an elevator and when I call in advance Jay the Concierge is always very pleasant and available to welcome me. #Chelsey is my stylist who I have followed from another salon. Her bright disposition enlightens all clients. Her professionalism and expertise in learning and growing in the industry is clearly shown in her work! She always makes you feel like a # V.I.P. She is fantastic with # weddings and #Goldwell color specialist. #Blow outs are also very easy to schedule... It is not a salon that oversells products but one that gets to know you and your hair. When I question what works best for products!! # Stilistie Salon on Newbury, clean, low music level and affordable and the entire staff is friendly!! read more

Honestly, I wish I was articulate enough to express in words how much I LOVE and appreciate this place. Last year I moved away to North Carolina and recently got the worst haircut of my life. Think 80s shag but worse. I was so upset that my boyfriend flew me back up to Boston (where I use to live) to have my beloved hair dresser Jamie fix it. Not only did she help fix it; she spent an HOUR after closing showing me how to style it until it grew out. Just look at the pictures. What a difference! This place changes you. I was in tears coming in and EVERYONE made me feel beautiful, loved and strong. Jamie, you are my favorite human. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Picture one was the hot mess before THEN how good it looks fixed. read more

Stilisti Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

I went to see Ali to fix a really bad color job that someone at another salon did; Ali took the time to talk to me about the health of my hair and talked about what my options were. She didn't pressure me into anything, and assured me she will try her best. It was hands down the BEST experience I've EVER had. I was shocked at how good my hair turned out considering how unhealthy it was to start. It was quite pricey but I've literally never been more satisfied with the way my hair turned out. I will DEFINITELY be coming to Stilisti to see Ali specifically. Regarding covid they took my temperature and asked me questions which made me feel safe because everyone was wearing a mask and following protocol. Thank you! read more

There are plenty of reviews for Stilisti, but there's one datapoint yet missing on Yelp: Stilisti for Asian Hair. (For all ladies: Yes, the space is beautiful and relaxing, and yes, Bella is the most amazing manicurist in Boston and worth her fees!) But moving on to my haircut... I first went to Stilisti a year ago through a LivingSocial blowout + manicure deal. After my amazing manicure with Bella, I sat down with Sally for my blow out . She was extremely cheerful and very easy to talk to -- so much so that I impulsively asked her for a trim on my long layered cut. She obliged and I walked out of the salon very happy. Fast forward a few months, and my long hair was growing shaggy again -- time for a trim! My second trim with Sally was fine, until the end: I had told Sally that I'm trying to grow out my bangs from ages ago, and found it odd that instead of incorporating my old layer of bangs into my other layers, she cut them shorter, into a weird semi-layer of their own. But with hair as long as mine (down past my shoulder blades), it wasn't that noticeable and I walked out adequately satisfied. Fast forward another few months: my layers had grown out enough so that I could go in for a fresh new cut. Hallelujah!! At first, I was hesitant to go to Stilisti instead of an Asian hair salon (namely Mie down the street). But armed with some photos on my iPhone, and trusting in my relationship with Sally, I went in for my haircut yesterday. Asian ladies reading this review probably are shaking their heads by now-- you should have gone to the Japanese salon! And as much as I hate to admit it, they're right. The majority of Stilisti's clients probably aren't Asian, and my stylist probably wasn't used to dealing with Asian hair, which requires special attention to definition and shape to give it lift and movement. Asian hair is not the same as non-Asian hair, and cannot be cut that way! I requested a long layered cut, with soft ends on the layers -- a flowing sexy cut. I walked out instead with a long bob, the kind that you would see on 5-year old Korean school girls. Sally took my hair, cut it into a straight line, dried it, then attempted to add layers as an afterthought. Throughout the haircut, I sensed that she was going in the wrong direction and casually brought out the photos again: Kimmy: "We're going to end up with layers like in the photo, right?" Sally: "Of course, we aren't even halfway done yet!" But my hair as it stands now has no real definition or shape -- it is a blunt cut such that when I pull my hair together, the end looks like a thick paintbrush, instead of long soft layers coming to an end. The problem with this is that my hair is thick, and the ends have already started to flip in and out in different directions, even after drying it, and using a flat iron and wax for styling. I wish that Sally had stopped to really examine her technique instead of going in scissors first and chopping off my hair into a straight line, which will now take 2-3 months to grow out to where I can go at this again. At the end of the cut, Sally was just hopelessly snipping away tiny ends of my hair, trying to give it some shape. She finally stopped and said "I honestly don't know what more to do" because it was cut too short. I was comped for the haircut and she also gave me a can of wax, but after washing my hair and styling it today, looking at my weird bob makes me sad -- next time am definitely going to an Asian salon. Woulda shoulda coulda.... read more

Not gonna let you know who cut my hair (HE'S AWESOME). Was on a search for a stylist that has comparable (or superior) talent than the my last stylist, formerly of Oxenrose, in San Francisco. Read Yelp Reviews and found Stilisti with rave reviews of a particular stylist. I brought pictures of my last haircut from San Francisco. He understood exactly what I wanted and even gave me great tips on how to style my hair. I'm SO GLAD I found the right stylist at first try. LOVE MY HAIR! (see main photo) ( | ) read more

So Ive shopped around, and I mean around! Ive been all over MA looking for a salon that will 1. LISTEN to what I want and 2. be nice and don't make me pay out the nose! I've been to Bradley and Diegel, Trephen, St. Cyr in Worcester, Shag, Salon 2, the list goes on and on. I heard about Stilisti simply by asking a woman at my gym where she got her hair done, by being referred I received 20% off my first appointment and so did she! The staff was very inviting, I signed up for a cut and color with Andrew and fell in love! Andrew listens, hes very nice and fun to chat with. Ive always had long hair (in 3rd grade my hair was at the back on my knees!) Andrew hasn't chopped off my hair like other stylists or bleached the crap out of it. When meeting with Andrew we discussed what I wanted, what my ideal plan was, and my price point for upkeep and maintenance from that point on we were spot-on on the same page! I go in whenever I can afford it, and for $100 for a cut on Newbury I'm happy! In the past at other salons on Newbury Ive paid $300 for a color and left with my hair wet, blowout not included. Stilisti colors your hair for a reasonable price, does a great job, blows it out, style it, etc. I will forever and always treat myself to a nice cut with Andrew especially after it taking 6 years to find him and the Stilisti staff! read more

Bad haircut, used car salesman service, with a dose of back biting. Not to mention, pricey ($65 before tip for a trim). You have to leave a credit card # to schedule an appointment so that they can charge you if you cancel. But when you have to wait over 30 minutes for them to be ready there is nothing to compensate for my time lost. And on top of that a simple hair cut took an excruciating 60 minutes. I had planned to give a 2 or 3 star review if the cut turned out ok, but after styling it for several days I have to report the cut is a fail. Next there was the hard sale of product to every customer, the fake engagement with the clients, and the faces & talk about the clients when they weren't within eye/ear-shot. Everyone was told they needed 3-4 products when they checked out. The behind the back faces and talk about the clients was extremely low class. Pretty on the surface, ugly just below the surface. read more

I recently relocated to Boson, and my tried & trusted favorite stylist is now about 600mi away. I'm very, very hesitant to wander into any salon without knowing something about their style/aesthetic/quality of work, especially since I've had my fair share of hair disasters (some of my own doing, some at the hands of paid professionals). Based on all the positive feedback I saw on Yelp, I decided to give Stilisti a try. I went to see Laurene for a cut and partial foil. The salon itself was lovely, and Laurene was great fun to talk to. In fact, the whole experience was quite nice and I left feeling gorgeous. For the record, I am fully aware of the general price range of a haircut and a partial foil, and this was on the higher end. However, I was (initially) very satisfied with the job she did, so I figured it was worth it to have found a stylist with whom I could trust my hair. I was happy until about 5 days later when my hair started breaking all over the place and falling out. Keep in mind, I was hardly ever heat styling my hair, partially due to laziness and partially because this summer was so humid that it was a waste of time. In addition, my haircut looked terrible a few days after, and when I DID try to style it, so much of my hair broke that I ended up with the remaining bits sticking straight up all over my head. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that she had bleached OVER my existing highlights instead of just touching up the roots and toning, making my hair brittle and prone to breakage. Now I can hardly run my hands through my hair without coming out with a fistful of broken strands. It's terrible. On top of that, my hair is now nearly impossible to manage, since I can't heat style it more than once a week for fear of losing half my hair in the process. I will absolutely not be going back to this salon. Ever. I only gave it two stars because Laurene was very kind and down-to-earth, even if she did fry my hair. read more

Updating my review: came here for an apt in September 2016 with Stephanie and she was amazing. So so so so happy with my hair cut- she is literally saving my hair after Aveda ruined it in Harvard Sq. also, I bought a product from them (hair milk) and 1 mo. later the pump broke. I went back this weekend to have it fixed AND they gave me a brand new one. They keep all purchases on file so if you have an issue with a product it does make things so much easier. Also, I bought the Hair Vitamins and I started to get some chin pimples and called and asked if I could return them if the side effects didnt go away and they said no problem, i could return the product if i was not happy. Overall, a GREAT place to get a hair cut, products, and it's so conveniently located right on Newbury St. Will never go anywhere else. read more

I followed my favorite stylist, Andrew, from Liquid over to Stilisti. I've only been once, but so far, I am impressed. Though it is a little more expensive at this salon than my old one, I found everyone there to be incredibly friendly without being pushy. The decor is open and welcoming, and, unlike other places I've visited on Newbury Street, I was immediately made to feel welcome. The scalp massage that came with the washing made me a little melty. I also noticed that they offer waxing as well as hair services. I like the location -- though I am not usually a Newbury Gal, this is way more T-accessible than Liquid was. I should add that if any fellow Curly Girlies are reading this, you won't find a better stylist than Andrew at Stilisti. He gives my Jew-fro body and shape without frizzies and poofi-ness. read more

I actually didn't follow Andrew Light from Liquid... my husband did. I followed another stylist to a different salon but when I was looking for someone to do hair for my wedding (I wanted pin-curls and very 50's inspired hair for the wedding party) my then boyfriend asked Andrew if it was something he could do and he thankfully said yes! It was a lot to ask because I needed him to drive almost 3 hours to Maine for the wedding and do hair for 5 girls over Labor Day weekend. Because I was doing pin-curls and wanted my color to be uniform and not stripey, I started having Andrew do my highlights about 6 months before the wedding and then because he knew what shape would work best, I started having him cut it. Next thing I knew... I wouldn't let anyone else touch my hair. I have now been going to Andrew for almost 2 years and my husband has probably been seeing him for 4. He is the best colorist I have ever been to - my hair always looks very natural and bright and it's in the best condition it has ever been in. He has also given me the best cuts I have ever had - he is creative but conservative and never does anything that will be difficult to maintain. I get more compliments after Andrew cuts my hair than I ever have before. My husband is also completely loyal to Andrew and has suffered through some bad haircuts in the past so he now won't see anyone else. Andrew knows his hair and gives him a great cut every time - not too short but not so long that it needs to be cut again the next week. He also did an AMAZING job with my hair for my wedding. It was exactly what I imagined, it lasted all day and looked gorgeous. All the girls in my wedding looked amazing and I owe it all Andrew. He made the long drive to Maine, was there at the crack of dawn and had us all ready on time. Everyone has said how unique the looks were because we didn't do the standard wedding up-dos. He is also one of the nicest, most lovely people to spend an afternoon with - something that's pretty important when you spend a lot of time at the salon! read more

I was nervous about getting a haircut at a new place so far from home (i'm a student) and found this place. Ali was AMAZING! She was so much fun to talk to and my hair looks and feels amazing. Also, she taught me about which products do what and how to take better care of my hair. I left knowing much more than i came in with. I'm definitely coming back here for Ali soon. Come here for your haircut!!! read more

I was out on business from SF and had the fabulous opportunity to experience the expertise at Stilisti. It's been over a month since I had my hair done and I still get compliments ALL the time about my hair. So I just had to write a review as a Thank you to all the wonderful people at Stilisti. Well my story begins with an experience I had from another salon. I walked in needing major help with my hair! The day prior, I went to a salon just outside of Boston and was promised that I would be a "summer ombre." Well, I walked out almost in tears. I was more orange and yellow with dark roots. It was terrible. You could see where the stylist had painted on the highlights. So, with my search of the best salons in Boston, I walked in to my consultation the next day. The Front desk and the manager, Reva were awesome. They suggested the perfect stylist that would be able to do the color correction. I had contemplated going to the drug store and just putting a dark brown in my hair the night prior! In comes Sally... the most amazing hairdresser. She was so kind and had a wealth of knowledge on exactly what to do. Reva was awesome... her and Sally accommodated my schedule since I was only in town for business for the 2 weeks (in from SF and I could not attend the remainder of my business meetings looking like an orange mess). They fit me in the very next morning! The very next morning... I walked out of Stilisti with not just color correction but the ombre that I had wanted originally. I LOVE my hair. I also love the experience at Stilisti. Everyone was so friendly as well. I would have paid $500-600 dollars for the color correction, consultation, ombre, cut, and style. To my dismay, it was very reasonable in pricing as well with everything! They even carry Oribe... love the product! I walked out with the best products to maintain my hair as well AND it is still looking fabulous! Thank you Sally, Reva, and everyone at Stilisti for making my hair look great and for the wonderful experience! I live out in SF but will book my next appointment when im back in Boston in the next couple of months for sure! read more

Great salon. Super friendly staff, easy to make an appointment. They have full line of Oribe products and use Goldwell color. The best on the market. I met the owner the last time that I was in and she was super kind and truly loves her business. read more

I have visited this salon three times and have seen a different stylist each time - the amazing thing is that each of them was fabulous. Ashley and Kayleigh were both junior stylists and Sally was a senior stylist. Ashley gave me a haircut and blow out the first time and although my schedule has not worked to see her again, she always comes up and says hello to me - so friendly. Sally gave me a haircut the second time and it also was great and she was very chatty and engaging. Just this past weekend I went to Kayleigh. I literally walked in on Sunday the day after the snowstorm, without an appointment!, and they were able to fit me in right away with Kayleigh. She took her time on my haircut and it turned out perfect. The blow out I got was really good too. I got tons of compliments that night on my hair :) All in all you I would say you can walk into this place and sit down with any of their stylists and they will give you a wonderful haircut, something I have never been able to say about a place before. Oh and for a nice touch there is fresh coffee, chocolates and almonds in the back...sometimes when its cold out that makes all the difference. Lastly, for pricing a junior stylist is $65 and the senior stylists is I think $80? The thing is the junior stylists are just as good in my opinion - quite a steal! read more

Like two other reviewers, I followed Andrew from Liquid to Stilisti. Absolutely worth it. Andrew should probably be given a gold medal in taming frizzy, curly hair. Look at the profile picture. My hair naturally looks like Gilda Radner. No joke. But I can wear my cut both curly and straight, and it frames my face well. The salon is soothing and quiet, and I think it's awesome how all the stylists' tools are neatly tucked away in wood units, so you never see a big ol' mess of cords and appliances. My only complaint (and it's a small one) is that I feel like I have to dress up to go get my hair cut on Newbury street. In the South End, nobody looked at me funny for wearing Old Navy jeans. Whoops, sorry, my Diane von Furstenberg must be at the dry cleaner's. . . read more
