    Aveda red (more apparent in sunlight), cut, and style by Michelle. Great work!

    Great stylist but the service and feel of the place is... meh. I'm currently living on the Cape but was coming to town for the weekend. I love Aveda reds, so I'm a loyal fan now. I chose this salon solely based on location. I didn't plan appropriately for traffic and was running late for my appointment. I called to see if I could push my appointment back a bit. I know it's annoying when customers do this, but the response I received was condescending, at best. He assumed I was cancelling my appointment, at first. Ultimately, he was able to push my appointment time back and schedule me with a different stylist, for which I was thankful. When I arrived, the greeting was flaccid. I was told I was too early, and my stylist was still with another client. (Would you like me to leave and come back?) She ran over, but I didn't mind waiting, particularly since I was late. Michelle greeted me. I discussed what I wanted with her. She made a suggestion about using a slightly darker shade of red, since I was doing all over color, as it would help blend my roots better. I travel for work and have to work with new stylists often. Some are less successful than others. Michelle knows her shit! She's not especially engaging, but the color ended up being fantastic, as was the cut and style. Even she was impressed with her handiwork. As an aside, I noticed the interaction between staff was muted and just polite to let you know they work together. It was as if they all barely knew each other and were just renting space to "do hair." Sort of a weird feeling, but I was pleased with Michelle's work, so I mostly dismissed it. Hard not to notice though. As we finished up, and I returned to the counter to pay, I interacted with the same fellow from check in. Interaction with him is hard to describe. The best I can come up with is that he's a bit smug. I'm paying you over $200 for color, cut, and style. Pretend to be happy. They don't accept tip on credit card, so he directed me down the corridor to the ATM. When I returned, our interaction was the same. I'm handing you a wad of cash as a fantastic tip, Pretend you like what you're doing. Seriously, just fake it. Overall, if you care significantly about service, find some place else. If you want amazing color, cut, and style. visit Michelle. That surely won't disappoint you.

    Establishment exude professionalism and service. David is the gentleman that took care of me and immediately knew what my hair needed and based on my asks. He managed to color my hair a shade up and meticulously cut my hair and end result confirmed he is well seasoned in his career. I highly recommend Escape Salon Aveda and David to potential new clients.

    Roots as bold as when I walked in. No blending. Do not go here.

    See all

I absolutely loved my hair and make up done by Anastasia. She did a fantastic job listening to what I wanted and making my vision come to life. I deducted one star because my appointment was for Event/Glam Photoshoot Make Up and Dyson Bouncy Curl Blow Out, but I didn't end up getting a blow out. She styled my hair with a flat iron but I was still charged for a bouncy curl blow out which I didn't feel was the same value. Other than that, I was very happy with my experience.

    Best salon by far in Boston. I've been in Boston almost a decade so I've tried quiet a few…read moredifferent hair salons around the downtown area... I absolutely LOVE ZenaRose. The work is impeccable to a level that I've been stopped by more than one stranger on the street post appointment. They have fantastic pricing and easy booking but what really sets them apart for me is the personalized and comfortable experience in the chair. I've been in salons where you can clearly tell you're their hundredth appointment, they aren't listening to you, they just want to get it done and worst of the staff don't get along with one another. That's not ZenaRose. Every staff member at ZenaRose genuinely gets a long and helps one another out; creating a wonderful atmosphere to spend what is some times more than an hour or two for an appointment. I connected with Kelli on my first visit and no matter what time or day I have booked with her over the years she makes me feel like I'm the only client she's seeing. She is kind, fun and her attention to detail makes me feel so confident when I leave her chair. I had my first every professional make up done by Yuliya today and WOW! I went in with no pictures and stunned with the results. As someone who has never gotten their makeup done I wasn't sure what to expect. Yuliya made me very comfortable, most notably making sure to pause to let me blink while she was doing my eye make up. I hadn't even realized I needed to blink and she's pausing for my comfort. Will definitely be back. Last note on booking, I called ten minutes before they closed the night before I needed a morning appointment. Fully expecting that a Saturday morning in late Feb would be booked solid, I got a call back in less than 10 minutes saying they had worked something out and it's all booked. No matter who you chose at ZenaRose you're going to have an incredible experience.

    Very overpriced with no prices posted. She does an ok job, but what I found out from my stylist in…read morePhilly is that she used to wash people's hair at a downtown salon, never really got trained and now runs this ultra expensive business? Not cool.

    Green Room Boston and Jessica are, hands down, the best! I've been to stylists all over (New York,…read moreChicago, Boston, etc.) and have yet to meet anyone that even compares to Jessica. She is truly a master of her craft and on top of that, a genuine person. What makes Jessica unique and ultimately, the best, is her ability to actually listen to what her clients want. For the first few appointments, Jessica asked me to show her images of hair I liked and then she really pressed me to detail exactly what it was I liked about the images (darker roots, length, layering, highlights, overall color, etc.). After only a couple of these conversations, I realized that for years I was describing to hair stylist something that was entirely different than what I actually wanted. With Jessica, going through these images and having these discussions helped us to be on the same page about what I wanted my hair to look like both in the moment as well as in the future. Using this information, she created a customized plan and timeline for me; the result is that today my hair is longer and healthier than ever with a color that I absolutely adore. Her skills as a stylist are further complemented by the exceptional level of service that she provides. Jessica is always on time and clear about pricing. She confirms appointments a week in advance and always offers flexibility if you need to reschedule; it's not uncommon for her to come in early or stay late to accommodate a client. She develops long-term relationships with her clients and gets to know them on a personal level so that she can tailor both the service and overall experience to each individual. Jessica is expensive, but I believe you get what you pay for. In this instance, superior haircare services in an exclusive single chair salon with a creative and thoughtful stylist.
