LOVE LOVE LOVE Antonella!

by ChickenNBoo

I almost don't want to tell anyone because I'm nervous I won't be able to get appointments (yes, pretty selfish, I know), but I LOVE Antonella!!

About three weeks ago I went to the salon for a cut and color correction. My hair had been dark brown with some purple (and those parts had been bleached first) then very dark brown with fire-engine red over even MORE bleached parts, then a black-blue on top of that. Antonella (with the advice from Sarah) managed to get all the oops colors out and turned my hair into a beautiful copper-auburn-brown (I had requested "reddish-coppery" and she nailed the color I was thinking of!) She is an amazing stylist, her cutting techniques are fantastic. It is SO HARD to find someone that can cut very short women's hair and still keep it looking feminin, not like I just got back from the barber shop. BUT SHE DOES IT RIGHT.

On top of all that, the rest of the staff is very personable, the salon itself is adorable and relaxing, and it makes my "me time" (which I get very little of, as a single mom of 2) simply fabulous.

Love you girls! THANK YOU!

No need to search anymore!!!

by susan organizer

I found this salon on the internet. After reading all the excellent reviews on it I decided to give it a try. I was in desperate need of haircolor and a haircut. I called and spoke with Toni, the owner, and made an appointment with her. She was wonderful! Very pleasant and friendly. I was very pleased with the decor of the place and the cleanliness of it. Toni did a wonderful job on my hair. My color looks great as well as the haircut! I will definetly be going back! Thanks Toni!! Susan

Toni is my new best friend

by jpace567

Found this salon through citysearch reviews. Made an appt with Toni for my long blah hair. Let me tell you, NO other stylist has even come close to making my hair look this good! She was so sweet and friendly (everyone in the salon is, no pretentiousness here!) She is the only stylist who layered my side bang correctly! The cut is awesome and she placed some highlights throughout my hair. The highlights are the perfect shade, very pretty color and noticeable and yet not skunk stripes. Definately adds dimension to my hair. I plan on making appts with her every 8 weeks to keep up with the cut. I have a tendency to skip cuts then after 12 weeks it hits me "hey my hair has no shape and looks horrid!" but now that I found Toni I see how wonderful my hair can be. I highly recommend this salon!

The absolute BEST salon in the Boston area!

by bostongatorgirl

I moved to Boston a few weeks ago after living on Cape Cod for three years (originally from South Florida), and ended up going to a Somerville salon upon the recommendation of a friend. I have been coloring my hair for over three years and I am extremely selective about the salons that I trust with my hair, as going to a salon should be a relaxing and rewarding experience, and not one of sheer shock and horror. After scheduling a coloring appointment with the Somerville salon and asking for a single process that matched my current warm chestnut hair color, I ended up with very dark, blue/purple hair, despite my indicating my distaste for dark purple-red hair. Absolutely shocked at how punk-rock/witchy my hair looked, and after learning that I couldn't get my color fixed at that salon during the same day - or even during the same week for that matter due to "overbooking" -, I frantically did an internet search for "best salons in Boston" and called Heavenly Hair hoping that they were able to fit in a new, last-minute client in need of a massive color correction. I called an hour before they closed (on one of their busiest days, as I later found out! ) and they told me that they would be more than willing to help me, despite how booked they were.

The salon is extremely easy to find as it's almost immediately after exit 39 on I-93 N, and after rushing there to get the problem fixed ASAP I was greeted to an extremely friendly, caring, and professional atmosphere, and I immediately noticed the close-knit and family-like vibe that the salon has, which was a breath of fresh air!

I explained what happened earlier in the day (and showed them my witchy looking hair), and after showing my stylist what color I was hoping for via pictures in one of their magazines, I ended up getting my hair stripped and re-colored to literally the EXACT same color that I was hoping for. My stylist, Antonella, did everything that she could to keep the integrity/health of my hair in tact, and I honestly feel as though my hair is healthier and shinnier now, even after how much trauma it went through in that single day, because of the care and skill that she placed into my hair.

This salon is truly about beautiful healthy hair, and I know for a fact that most salons will do whatever it takes to strip color out of your hair for a color correction, without even caring or paying mind to the fact that your hair could be potentially damaged as a result. Antonella did everything within her power to NOT just strip my hair for the sake of ease and saving-time, and because of that my hair feels and looks absolutely amazing.

I normally don't make reviews of places that I visit, and I normally don't create an online account to make reviews in the first place, but because I personally decided to come to this salon due to positive reviews that I read online, I felt that it was only right to let the rest of the world know just how accurate all of these positive reviews are. I really cannot stress enough how absolutely amazing all of the stylists are, and how well they listen to and care for their client's and their client's vision! They stayed an extra three hours past closing time (on St. Patrick's Day, none-the-less!) to help me achieve the look that I wanted, and I have never had my hair look this good before!

As someone who is pretty serious about her hair services, this salon beats the heck out of any salon in Boston, and I cannot stress enough how brilliant these stylists are.

Don't be fooled by the flashy names and websites of salons IN Boston, as location has nothing to do with stellar services and products! This truly is the best salon in Massachusetts, as far as I'm concerned!
