Best Hair Salons In Somerville

“Antonio is the most amazing barber. He is an older Brazilian man that is always there. His English isn’t great but he is extremely sweet and has such a calming presence. I don’t usually leave reviews but I’m leaving the area and am sad that I can’t bring him with me. He is the best I’ve had in Boston. I have straight course Asian hair and he knows exactly how to cut it with the most attention to detail. If it isn’t cut precisely it looks terrible and uneven. He cuts it once from how my hair is when I walk in, then he washes it, cuts it again, styles it and cuts it again to ensure the perfect cut from all angles.“

“Great salon. Love going here. Carlo is always a pleasure to chat to and gets my hair back in shape!“

“I have been to little hallow a few times and I have always been happy with the services I received. Firstly I love the vibe! The dark and spooky decorations are so fun and quirky. Additionally staff are always kind a welcoming. I love getting my hair done and watching the owner talk to every person who passes by and addressing them by name. They say hello to every dog and every person and it is just such a beautiful part of the community. This past time I came I got a haircut and a Brazilian blowout it was $265. I was so happy with how much work and dedication was put into my haircut even though it was late and I was the only client in the salon. Thank you for everything!“

“Great option for an affordable curly haircut! I’ve gotten expensive curly cuts in the past but this place was great for a trim. And the environment was very peaceful.

Hair type: Curly

Stylist: Delphi did a great job! Very quick and simple, but good for curly hair. She cuts it dry and wets it as she goes to make the curls pop out.“

“Amal Niccoli is an incredible salon with fair prices that will make you feel right at home. I originally went to them for my/my bridal party’s hair & makeup for my wedding day a year ago and they absolutely knocked it out of the park. So much so that I am now a regular customer for hair and lashes, and have referred several others (they have an incredible referral program as well)! I see Colleen for my hair, Courtney for my lash extensions, and Angelica for my lash lifts. They all pride themselves on great work and are extremely personable. Lori, the owner, will always go the extra mile for you. The salon is literally right down the street from me, but I would absolutely still go even if I lived an hour away (and I know other people who literally do drive 1hr+ to go there!). I’m so grateful to everyone at Amal Niccoli and my only regret is that I didn’t start going there sooner! Thank you so much!“

“I love this place. Super welcoming and great haircuts. I’ve been coming to Michelle pretty consistently for the last ten years or so. She can usually fit me in with just a few days notice but I would try calling day of if you need it. You can park in the lot across the street too.“

“I love all the care Rosa puts into her work. She's the best! Great prices and location.“

“If you’re looking for a hairstylist you can trust your hair with, look no further, Fernanda and her team are the absolute best in the hair industry! Everyone is so kind and friendly and will pamper you like no other salon does, you truly get luxury treatment here. Fernanda is all hands down my Hair Goddess!

Make sure to follow them @fernandasbeautysalon“

“I brought my two daughters for a hair cut, they are 2 and 7. First it is so hard to find a hair salon that take kids, or those they do, you need to book months in advance. I just walked in Renaissance, could get an appointment for following week. owner was so kind and patient with the kids, the price was absolutely reasonable, compare to other place. I wish I have walked in much earlier! always come back! great place for the while family!“

“I have been getting my hair done by Felipe for the last 2 years and I like that he takes special care to keep my hair healthy through balayage treatments. He avoids excess heat, makes helpful maintenance and styling recommendations, and uses high quality products that leave my hair soft and polished. Balayage is expertly blended. His prices are very reasonable and he is knowledgeable about different hair types. Clean and peaceful boutique salon. He is very flexible and responsive with scheduling, which I also appreciate. Conversation is always pleasant and professional. Highly recommend!“

“I love going here! I trust them to do a great balayage and cut! They listen to exactly what you want and make sure you’re leaving feeling amazing!

Hair type: They do well on cuts for fine hair!“

“Mayza was very sweet and a great hair stylist ! Definitely would recommend going here!“

“Patrick is absolutely amazing! My go to in Boston now. I have visited him twice and got best haircut and colour both the times. I highly recommend!“

“I first came here for a consultation for a pink balayage, and then returned for my actual appointment. Due to a scheduling miscommunication with the stylist with whom I had originally booked, Michelle, the owner, offered to do my balayage (with some help from another stylist, Ashley). She did such an amazing job!!! I've been getting some variation of pink balayages/highlights done for the past 6 years, and I've never been this happy with the result.

On top of the excellent job she did on my hair, Michelle even bought me some hair dye and masks so I could revive my color at home as a consolation for the scheduling issue that was not even her fault--truly a class act. She also provided so much useful information while she worked on my hair! You can tell she cares deeply about her craft.

This is a salon I would have overlooked when booking a balayage, as I fall victim to wanting to go to "trendy" places, thinking higher prices equate to a better job done. Well, consider me converted, because this was honestly one of the best experiences I've had at a salon in my adult life.“

“My hairdressing appointment last night for a cut and color was the best hairdressing experience I've ever had. Linda took time at the start of the appointment to sit and talk to me so that she could understand what will work for me; what would suit my personality and daily regime. I'm so happy, it's so refreshing to meet a hairdresser that cares about hair and isn't just trying to get customers out of the door. The appointment took a while but the result is more than I was expecting. The balayage color is wonderful, exactly what I've wanted for years, and the cut is still long, but it moves, its lighter, I feel younger. I can't recommend enough. Linda's amazing!

Requested style: Balayage, toning, cut“

“I was a walk in customer. Great haircut. Best shave and goatee styling. Prices are best in the area. Thank you Marvin for your great skill and service.“

“Excellent stylist. wonderful customer service. Environment full of harmony. Fully recommended“

“Jen is a dream - knows how to work well with thick and long hair.

Hair type: I have thickk hair - but Jen has done everything from a quick trim to a full on pixie, and all of them have been great.

Stylist: Jen is really good about asking for input and your aesthetic preferences, but also makes sure the cut works with your preferred level of maintenance. I'm a wash and go gal, and she always makes sure to give me a cut that looks good for the level of effort I (don't) put in.“

“I go for my roots and highlights here and i see Felipe who has recently joined this salon. I have been seeing Felipe for 4 years and he always does my hair really well.“

“(Translated by Google) Very good. My brows turned out great.(Original)Muito bom. Minha sobrancelha ficou ótima.“

“I moved to Boston from Central Florida and I finally found my hair salon 'home' with Alex and her team at Salon Milage. So happy to have found them, they offer every hair service at the best possible quality, and the Salon is beautifully decorated, clean, and elegant. Love that this is a family run, woman owned, bilingual business and plan to keep coming back regularly for hair care. Highest recommendation!“

“Natacha is an amazing salon owner, hair stylist, mother and friend! Not only does Natacha absolutely SLAY IN HAIR but Natacha also has a wealth of knowledge in hair care! My hair has grown and has become very healthy in her hands! Natacha is very nurturing and caring with all her clients. She treats us like we are a part of her beautiful, kind family! I highly recommend Natacha for all of your hair care needs!!“

“I come to Anita for henna hair color. The color is lovely, she is very knowledgeable about henna color and answers all my questions. She also trims my hair as needed, she always doublechecks how much she is taking off which I appreciate as sometimes hairdressers cut off way too much. Great experience and would recommend.“

“Luisa is the best hairdresser. Very professional as well as talented. She also has a great sense of humor.Sadly the shop is not permanently closed. Luisa, the owner, has retired. I was a loyal customer for over 20 yrs and will miss her a lot.“

“Richard is the best! He is friendly, professional, and an artist with scissors. I highly endorse.Service: Haircut“
