Hair Stylists in Boston

“Locs concert has out done him self Mr Kesh has what it takes he’s so professional and dedicated to his work he keeps his appointment listen to his clients and ooooo u are sure to have good time on his chair“

“As always, the hospitality at She is Sofie James is amazing. For years I’ve floated around to various salons, but I’ve finally found mine here. Amanda is always a pleasure and I always love my hair after my appointments with her. Everyone is so friendly and was so welcoming when I brought my dog, Gibson. He stole hearts and had a blast making new friends!“

“Andrew has been an absolute superstar! I'm often looking to completely change my hairstyle and he's met those requests with excitement instead of apprehension. He's also done a great job with both hair transitions he's worked on with me! To be honest I can't afford his haircuts but I keep going to him because he's the only person in the city that I trust with non-standard hairstyles across the gender spectrum.

Edit: My last couple haircuts have been quite disappointing. I tried to convince myself the haircuts were okay. But the lines in my hair were uneven both times and I asked for layers both times and he cut my hair all to the same length both times. Since he didn't give me layers the first time, I asked him to cut my hair short if he needed to for layers the second time around. This time again he cut my hair all to one length, but this time shorter. I would trust him completely with masculine hairstyles but I don't think I'm ever going back for a hairstyle with any femme components. The last couple appointments also felt more rushed and like he didn't have the time or energy to spend on the haircut and just wanted it out of the way, so all in all, I'm probably on the lookout for a new hairstylist.. :(“

“They were able to accommodate me on pretty short notice, made me feel welcome and gave great advice with the limited instruction I provided! I've never been good at describing what I want and Stephanie made it so easy. Perfect experience, will be back.

Requested style: I requested to keep the feeling of length while removing the dead ends and putting in some layers“

“I have been searching high and low to find a stylist specifically for my pixie cut. I stumbled across this salon online and decided to check out their website. I booked my appointment a week in advance with ease. The day of my appointment I was running late but they were really nice and did not make a fuss of it. I had the pleasure of having Malik style my pixie. I didn't have to wait more than 5-10 minutes to sit in his chair. He briefly examined the condition of my hair and asked me of my expectations. He was really hilarious. He had me laughing throughout my service. The atmosphere almost feels like you're sitting in your auntie's living room listening to gossip and good music. I normally wear my pixie for a few days before changing into braids or a wig but it's been over 2 weeks and I'm still wearing it. It seems to get better and better as the days go on. I feel so confident and sexy. I thought that this would be a one time thing as I was getting my hair done for vacation but I will definitely go back to Malik over and over again.“

“I absolutely love my new extensions! Allana did the most amazing job - exceeded all expectations. I have always had thin hair and just wanted some additional volume. I don't know if I will ever not have Allana's extensions again. Life changing!“

“Great service! I felt pampered ❤️ Highly recommend for every service they offer! Absolutely amazing experience!“

“Konstantina was beyond lovely. She really listened to what I wanted and then she delivered it exactly as I hoped (even better actually). I’m a customer for life!“

“I'm tempted not to leave a review so this can remain a hidden gem, but what a disservice that would be to Sue!!! This was my first time getting my haircut here and it was by far the best cut I've gotten in Boston, especially considering the price (~$20 less than the going rate for a women's cut in the city). She was so friendly, chatty, and had a same day appointment when I called on a Tuesday morning. I told her just a little bit about what I wanted for my hair and she absolutely nailed it. The rapport I saw between her and the customer before me was lovely, and the waves she gave to a few customers who passed her window during my cut were heartwarming. 10/10 would recommend even though I want to keep this sweet salon all to myself!“

“Been coming here for over a year and I’m going to come here for as long as I can. This place has amazing decor and great vibes, Steven is an amazing guy to talk to and he’ll always make sure you look good. It was a struggle to find a stylist I liked after moving to the Boston area and I’m glad I found him and I’m sticking with him.TL:DR Very hospitable owner, great vibes. Will continue coming here for the long term.“

“Marty, Marty, Marty. This girl single-handedly made me like my hair again. Curly hair is tough to work with, but she does it so effortlessly and made it look so natural that even months after my hair painting service I’m still getting so many compliments. I’m also fairly low maintenance with my hair (sry, girl) and she does a fantastic job keeping it looking fresh over a long period of time. She’s so kind and fun to hang out with during a long session with great and comfortable vibes in the salon. I don’t live in MA anymore, but I gladly and willingly fly two hours up to Boston to work with Marty. Unequivocally recommend!!“

“The best service I have ever received. Kindness, amazing service, and the environment is filled with love. Shoutout to the amazing star studded owner Erin who helped me through a very rough time. I can not recommend this place more!! Will forever be a returning client!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Fantastic First Experience!”
I had my first appointment with Julida, and she was amazing! She listened to my concerns, gave great advice, and the Brazilian bond treatment left my hair feeling healthier and shinier than ever. Her attention to detail and care made the whole experience wonderful. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“I was looking for a reasonably priced Deva cut and Anthony really delivered. Since it was my first time, I booked the first time Deva cut with consultation. Anthony let me know how to improve my product application process and that has really been a game changer. Also let's talk about the cut - he shaped my hair better than anyone ever has! I don't think I've ever received so many compliments on a haircut, and I work at an architecture and design firm so my coworkers have an eye. Also, Anthony is super funny, sassy, and personable. I will definitely be going back to SMASH for my future hair care. Thank you!“

“Back in the day at 428 Mass Ave there was a nightclub here called The Little Dixie. I was one of the house musicians. Now I come back here to have Kent cut my hair because he is the very best. I am always sharing my nostalgia as to what transpired here way back when.?“

“Victoria always does a fantastic job on my hair. The cut and color are perfect, and she always listens to my thoughts, questions, and concerns, and guides me to make decisions that work well for me and my hair. On top of being an expert stylist, Victoria is SO nice. I am always so excited to come to my appointments and chat and catch up. I always leave Wildflower feeling better- both physically and emotionally- than I did when I arrived.“

“Love Lynsey, best hair dresser for short hair and awesome personality! Cute shop, friendly staff.“

“I had the pleasure of visiting Sahara at her salon in Boston for a haircut and GK hair treatment, and I was extremely satisfied! I saw immediate results from the GK hair treatment. My hair has never looked or felt healthier. She offered great suggestions that completely changed my look, that I wouldn't even think to ask! Even though I live in New York, Sahara's salon was worth the trip. She is not only extremely talented but also very kind, and easy to talk to! I can definitely say that I've found my go to hair stylist in Boston, and I'll definitely be back for all my future hair appointments. Highly recommend!“

“I called on a whim because I was coming in from out of town. They were able to fit me in right away. The staff was extremely nice and my hair came out amazing!!!! Highly recommend this beauty salon!“

“pure hair design a salon that is clean and appealing. I've been getting cuts for many years with Jason Holmes who is absolutely extraordinary in his artistry as a stylist. Quality“

“Judith is an excellent professional, she knows how to treat clients, she always takes care of you on time. The atmosphere is pleasant and he always advises you what is best for your hair. I highly recommend it.

“This has been my go-to for many years, and I've consistently had a top-notch customer experience. Kent is outstanding - not only an amazing stylist, but also an interesting, thoughtful and kind person. The salon staff are always welcoming and accommodating, and it's remarkable how the team manages to keep appointments on time. Bravo and thank you!“

“Have been going to Louie since September of 2023 and can't speak highly enough about him and his shop. The cut is perfect every time and super reasonably priced for Boston. Louie is also just a great person to talk to. I actually look forward to getting my haircut these days so I can catch-up with Louie after not seeing him for 4-6 weeks. If you're on the hunt for a barber in Boston stop the search right here, Louie is your guy.“

“The best part of my day was visiting this salon. My stylist was knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable the entire time. My hair looks stunning – I can’t wait to come back“
