I have been going to Salon Fabiano for a few years now to see my stylist who I absolutely love. It…read moreis about time I give them a shout out. The hair stylists there are amazing. I have thick hair and most stylists cringe at having to blow my hair out after a cut. It seems to be my stylists favorite part. Instead of feeling like a burden as I have had at other salons, I leave there with the best blowout ever and it lasts me for up to four days. The Salon is very clean and everyone who I have met who works there has been extremely professional and accommodating. I recently brought my daughter who has biracial hair. She has a lot of it and needs to be handled with care. OUr appointment was with different stylists then the one I see. She did a great job easing my 8 year old through the wash, blowout and straight ironing. Her hair looked shiny and so healthy after her cut and blowout. She even put the cutest front braid in it. I know we were her last appointment of the day and she was not bothered to make my daughter feel special. She was so proud the next day at school and she still has the braid in 4 days later. I am excited to be able to have a double salon day with my bff. Thanks Salon Fabiano.

I rarely write reviews, but if others are on the fence, this salon takes Covid safety very seriously and I'm so pleased with their precautions and scheduling approach. It's incredibly refreshing to find a salon that is also environmentally conscious. I showed up today completely on the fence about what I wanted done to my overgrown, curly hair and Kimberly's experience and guidance shined through. I can't overestimate this appreciation as a curly haired lady who others don't always know what to do with. So pleased with the outcome, and thank you!

First off, she took the time to speak to me over the phone and ask good questions. I brought my Mom with me who also needs a hairdresser. She was very kind, patient and understanding towards her... my Mom has dementia so the person who works with her has to have a lot of patience. Even the other hairdresser was friendly & engaging in the salon. I have been to a ton of salons in my lifetime... it's rare to experience this kind of upbeat & kind attitude. Cheri gave me a courtesy reminder call prior to our appointment which I always totally appreciate.. When we arrived she made us feel like SOLID GOLD. Her genuine and amazing personality & TALENTS are so outstanding in person. She went above and beyond to make sure that we both felt and looked our best. She sent me a thank you note, which I always do with my own clients. Thank you Cheri for being so totally fabulous! I would recommend just even going one time and you will never want to go anywhere else! Looking forward to going back for another service!!!!!! Thank you.

As I said in a review of her former workplace, Cherie delivers a high-end cut at a very reasonable price, and is truly an artist when it comes to hair color- I've been approached on several occasions by other stylists asking who did my color. I tried several times to find a salon closer to home, but I was always disappointed- either the quality of the service wasn't up to par or the price tag was astronomical. I recently moved across the country and one of my last stops before leaving was to see Cherie for one final touch up. Since then I have been daydreaming about flying back for my next haircut.

I purchased the livingsocial.com deal for a wash, cut, blowdry. I had never been to this salon…read morebefore and I'm desperate to find a new stylist that I can be loyal to :-) I have had some scary experiences (I think a few of them are on yelp!). When I first walked in, I was a little confused. There wasn't a receptionist so I just took a seat, someone came over a few minutes later to greet me. I then waited a few more minutes and a woman came and said she was going to wash my hair and I could have a seat at the wash station. A few initial observations - this place is very small. VERY small. They are also VERY busy so all the chairs were occupied with stylist behind them making things very tight. There are two wash bowls in the middle of the salon. I sat and waited. It was a little awkward. I almost wish she had just let me wait in the seating area. I had my hair washed - very relaxing and nice and then I had to go back over to the seating area and wait for my stylist..it was only a couple of minutes. Jess was my stylist and she didn't introduce herself, I only knew her name because when I made the appointment they said it would be with Jess. So needless to say, we were off to a rocky start. I wasn't feeling super welcome or super comfortable. However, once Jess started talking to me and we had a good conversation going, it was very nice. She was very warm and I was happy feeling I was in good hands. Overall, I was happy with my hair cut. I will be back to see Jess. A few notes about the salon. It was very warm (temperature wise) in there. I was sweating..eww. Also, it's very "swampscott-ish" - meaning the other clients walk around like they own the place and I wouldn't go in there and share "what you heard last night over dinner" because I guarantee someone in there knows someone you are talking about. That would be the only reason I wouldn't go back - which is a shame because I did like my hair, I just didn't necessarily love the environment which is not really the fault of the salon. I'm not sure how you would resolve that..but if you want a good cut I would recommend Jess.
