I've had $40-60 cuts from barbers and salons struggling to cut my hair right. Fenny does it on point effortlessly in minutes. $20!!!!!!!!!! I live mostly in Maine these days but so worth the drive up to Boston just for a haircut. She's got a niche clientele of locals living and working in the neighborhood but deserves a lot more business. Doing my bit to help her survive 2020. read more

Amazing haircut experience. I had long thick asian hair and I got a short pixie cut, and Fenny did an incredible job. She was very detailed and thorough, and listened to my requests before and during the cut. She was also a joy to talk to and her dog was very cute. Will 100% be coming back. read more

Immediately upon entering the shop, you're greeted by Bella excited to see another customer. I wanted something simple, a straight cut which Fenny did in a quickness. We skipped the washing and shampooing although it is offered as her services. As she was combing and prepping my hair, I neglected to tell her I had an undercut. She offered to clean it up (which honestly I didn't plan to do anything with it) but she did a great job with it. My hair was long and needed some weight off of it, plus the ends were dry and dead due to me playing a lot of beach volleyball. She even had recommendations to help with my hair care when I play for hours under the sun which I appreciated. Within 30 mins I was in and out of her shop, she doesn't rush you out or try to convince you to do other things other than what you want to do. Prices are affordable and she offers options to pay for her services. Personality is bold and such a welcoming and happy environment. She doesn't need all the fancy things that you see in other hair salons. Peep the before and after pictures. I definitely recommend her, she gets the job done and is affordable for you. Thanks Fenny read more

First, I have to tell you that Fenny is an absolute gem. Fenny will bend over backwards to accommodate you. I wandered down here because I had some downtime before my Amtrak train left and the store was closed, but I called anyway. She was at home, but she jumped in the car and told me she would be at her store in 30 minutes! I was looking for a high quality haircut without all the pompous trappings that usually come with it, and Fenny delivered. I got an awesome layered cut for my very long hair for under $50 ($60 with tip). I will be back for sure. read more

I've been coming here since I moved to the South End and even now that I've again moved. Fenny's place is always a quick cut for me. If you communicate what you want from her, she'll deliver. Most affordable haircut I ever get. Most places charge me double what I pay here for a worse or on par quality cut. It also helps that every time I go, her dog Bella is always there to welcome and keep me company if there is a wait. read more

After my first visit to Fenny's, I'm sure to go back. Fenny gave me a great haircut, and her prices are extremely reasonable.

Fenny's Salon is a local gem. I've been coming to her for the past 9 years! She's extremely nice, skilled, and gives really affordable haircuts. read more

Very unsatisfied with the hair cut received by Fenny. I asked that she cut 3 inches off my hair and she ended up cutting almost 6 inches off!! I told her the length of was okay but she continued to cut, and the layers she gave me are very uneven and choppy. She continued to cut my hair even after I asked her to stop and she even thinned out my hair so much that she removed 60% of my hair!! She gave me a long bob which was NOT at all what I requested. I had to stop her since she kept thinning my hair and cutting a lot more hair off than I had requested. She also said she has been cutting hair for 30 years, if that's the case, she should know that you listen to your client when they ask you to stop. I find a lot of hair stylists believe they have free agency to do whatever on a clients hair just because they have the scissors, but I didn't give her free realm to cut my hair really short with very high choppy layers. I recieved a wolf cut and long bob...... read more

Fenny is absolutely amazing. She makes you feel so welcomed and is very honest and upfront. She truly cares about her clients and recommends what is best for you, unlike other places that try to push their products. She has been there for over 20 years and its always good to support local businesses. I took a chance on Fenny after looking at much more expensive salons around Boston and I know I made the right choice. Having very curly hair, I knew my hair would be difficult but Fenny accommodated me so well and I left feeling great with my new haircut. I will definitely be back to see Fenny and of course the cutest puppy Bella! read more

Usually don't write review but this is a first because Fenny is so amazing. Had no idea what hairstyle to go by and Fenny immediately gave me different proposals on what would suit me based on her 40+ years of experience. Fenny was very welcoming and I enjoyed our conversations. The entire process was very professional, quick and clean. Bella (her dog) is so cute too, her favourite treat's dried chicken treats :) overall this is a great experience, come over if you ever want a haircut in Boston read more

Go to Fenny's for a great haircut at a superb value! An appointment isn't needed - drop right in - usually I have no wait or only a few minuets. I usually get my haircut from Fenny herself, who is high-spirited and friendly while being fast, efficient and professional. I've also worked with another stylist there who was also very good. My 7-year-old nephew likes Fenny's too! Last summer, I had just gotten a nice short haircut when he visited - and he instantly wanted a trim too - the skilled folks at Fenny's took care of him quickly and he felt better in the summer heat. Fenny's is close to the ever-growing SOWA art gallery district of the South End... Also good pizza and subs are available next door while many finer restaurants are nearby such as The Red Fez, The Gaslight and Meyers & Chang is right down the block... There is plenty of metered Parking on Washington Street, and Fenny's is right on the Silver Line. read more

Fenny's Salon - Fresh haircut for Summer! - Hair Salons Near Me - Boston, Massachusetts

Fenny is a absolutely terrific, so great to have right around the corner! Always ready and willing to take care of you as soon as she can - which can be like almost immediately. I hadn't been to her since prior to covid and finally needed a real cut for a last minute wedding :-) . I didn't know covid had forced her into 'by appointment only' mode so knocked on her door, a little surprised to find it locked even though the lights were on. She appeared promptly, explained the need for an appointment but said I could have one in 1/2 hour just as her next appointment showed up at the door. She helped book it on my phone and when I returned exactly 1/2 hour later, she was there opening the door for me again! Fenny is always happy, efficient and skilled in her work, looking to satisfy you completely offering suggestions as very appropriate. And, may I also say, she is very economical! Can't get a good cut anywhere near here for so little!!! read more

Fenny is a nice lady but I can't take that with me when I leave the salon. Only a haircut remains. She talks and laughs and makes you feel like your mom is cutting your hair but the haircut was mediocre. Its really a 3.5 but I like to give barbers the benefit of the doubt, cause usually its me just not manning up and correcting them. Fennys was very decently priced but the second time I came here she was no where to be seen. Took 20 min of me just sitting there and waiting and some broken english on the part of the employee to tell me that they weren't cutting hair that day. Not very good service without Fenny there. Avg (First visit + Second Visit) = (2 + 4)/2 = 3 estrellas read more

I had a great haircut for a great price at Fenny's. I will return.

I've been going there for years. It is a local neighborhood salon. The service is good and the owner Fenny is nice. She is friendly and the environment is peaceful. read more

My husband has been going there for hair cut for years! Fenny is a super friendly and very experienced. The best in the neighborhood for hair cut. read more

Fenny has quite a memory. I didn't have to tell her what to do with my hair especially because it was my second time seeing her! She did a fantastic job! She is very friendly and very thoughtful read more

I had one of my best haircuts ever at Fenny's last week. The owner/stylist is friendly and knows how to cut hair. I like my hair short, but stylish and hip. She had no problem with that. She cut my air and provided good styling tips. She has my highest recommendation. read more

After bouncing around from barbershop to barbershop, I finally found a consistent place to get my haircut, and I couldn't be any happier! Fenny always takes her time to understand what type of haircut I am looking for, and even when I don't know what I want, she works with me to make great recommendations based on our conversation. She's been cutting hair for many years, and it shows. She definitely knows what she's doing and I'm always satisfied with how I look after visiting Fenny's Salon. The salon itself makes me feel very comfortable and right at home. Besides Fenny being absolutely wonderful, it's easy to get there by MBTA on the red line or silver line, there's usually never too long of a wait even when you walk in, the prices are very competitive compared to other places, Fenny's sister gives a very relaxing hair wash, and the best part is that you are welcomed into the salon by Bella, the super cute and friendly resident Pomsky. Bella makes any wait time fly by, and sometimes I even stick around after my haircut is finished to play with her a little longer. It really does feel like you are being welcomed into the family whenever you visit Fenny's Salon, and I'd recommend coming here for a haircut to anybody. read more

I finally started going to Fenny after my husband had such a great experience and he was right! Fenny does a fantastic job at a reasonable price. She is always lively and wonderful to talk to. I highly recommend her salon! read more

Going to Fenny's was one of the best haircutting experiences in my life! She does an amazing job and is a true South End institution being here for 35+ years. I would highly recommend getting your hair cut here read more

Very experienced hairdresser for an extraordinary price ($17 for men). She has decades of experience cutting hair. Super cute and friendly dog too! I usually drop in without any or much wait, or you can call ahead to see how busy she is. She doesn't employ and other hairdressers so you know you will always get a high standard haircut read more

Came here as the reviews were great and I have a very basic blunt haircut and just needed a trim. Worst haircut I've ever gotten. Inside layer is inexplicably 2 inches shorter than the rest of my hair. I look like a court jester. The price was too good to be true and I should have known better. read more

She is very sweet first time going to this place and place looks amazing friendly sweet dog will be coming back

Everyone's right. The service here is too wonderful to pass up! The head and scalp wash was amazing - not to be missed. I didn't know what I wanted when I went in, but whatever it was that I was hoping for, I got it! Great, fast and easy cut. And cheap (26 buckaroos for a medium length wash, cut, and style!)! And they take credit cards! Yea! Definitely headed back in a couple months. read more

Great first experience at Fenny's! Tons of reviews on here from men, so here to add that she does great women's cuts too- and super affordable especially if you just need a simple cut like me. First off- the scalp massage during the shampoo lasted 3x as long as the haircut- literally at least 15-20 minutes. Amazing! Fenny listened to what I wanted in terms of the haircut, personally didn't need anyone using too much creative license so this worked for me. Paid $45 for both (Fenny gives you a quote before you begin. I didn't get a blow dry). Located right around the corner from me in the South End, I will be back for sure! read more

I have been coming to Fenny's for my haircuts for years, and she does an excellent job each time. She pays close attention to details and makes sure I'm happy with my cut every time. I tried other places in the past because I moved out of the city, but I still prefer Fenny's. I highly recommend! read more

I tried Fenny's Salon a couple of months ago, after seeing reviews on Yelp. It's relatively close to where I live but I had to drive my boyfriend's car to get here (he was out of town), which wasn't a problem because it was pretty easy to find parking. I guess I went at a good time because Fenny was able to take me in right away. She asked me if I wanted a wash, and I said yes. I didn't think much of it since most washes are included with a haircut, but I guess I shouldn't have assumed that. I know many yelpers have talked about how great her scalp massages were, but I personally did not enjoy it. It hurt too much! It felt more like a painful scalp scratch rather than a massage... It hurt so much I cringed every time. The haircut was great. She took a lot of time on me, even though customers stared strolling in one by one. I was really pleased with the cut she gave me and thought I had found The Place; the place where I can get a haircut I like and works on a student budget. But when I went to pay at the counter, Fenny said it was $40! I guess that's a reasonable price for a haircut in Boston but I came in under the impression that it would be about half that price. I assume it cost more because of the shampoo/dry and maybe next time if I just get a cut, it would be much cheaper. Overall, I was happy but my wallet was not. Even though I liked my haircut, I don't think I will go again unless I desperately need a haircut and can't wait until the next time I go home, where I can get a cheaper haircut. read more

Excellent place for a haircut that won't empty your wallet! Moved into the city a few years ago and my roommate recommended going there after I foolishly paid $25-$30 for an ear lowering at other places in the neighborhood. It was the best decision I could have made. I've been going there ever since to see Fenny herself and she has always done a bang up job. Fenny is extremely friendly and takes pride in her work. I think she usually closes around 6pm but you can literally give her a call if you are running late and she'll gladly wait a few extra minutes to ensure you're able to get a cut. The first time I went there she told me she was the first business on the block years and years ago and has only changed her prices once! ROCK ON FENNY! It's nice to pay less than $15 for a haircut and not feel like I'm playing Russian roulette. read more

Nice service with very inexpensive price. I find it and keep staying here since then. Compared to other $35 haircut, you just spend $15 for same quality or better service. Hope this shop can stay longer. read more

Excellent quality men's haircut. I've been there 4 times now and I've been happy each time. The first time I went the owner/stylist talked to me for quite a bit to make sure she understood what I wanted. This place is a little bit farther away from the city center so it doesn't get as busy but this means that she puts in the time to give me a proper cut and not rush through it. On top of that, the cut is very affordable at $17. Highly recommended. read more

I walked in when Fenny was cutting another gentleman's hair and in a few minutes she was done and it was my turn. Fenny is very amicable and cut my hair in less than 15 minutes! She also rinsed my hair after she cut it for free, which almost never happens. She's instantly likable and if you can speak Cantonese, you'll be able to experience her in her element. There are plenty of hair style magazines in the waiting area to give you ideas and she's had the salon for 15 years, which, in this economy, says a lot! Plus, like so many have already noted, you can't beat the great prices! Service was awesome and I walked out with a new haircut for less than 20 bucks, tip included! I'm definitely coming back since she's so close to my office. read more

Ok, so I've never personally had my hair cut here, but I've sat in a chair next to my friend Brian while he had his cut by Miss Fenny herself. Brian had been raving about the magical hands of Fenny, so I had to go witness the cut myself. She works fast, like Edward Scissorhands fast, and with dramatic flourishes and side steps that make it all seem like a dance. She's upbeat and loves to laugh, and she'll have you in and out of there in under 10 minutes (I think it's because she cuts hair dry, at least the men, so that is a time saver in itself). Overall, I was impressed, and somewhat fascinated by her. The place redefines "no frills" but who cares when you are in such good hands. read more

I went to Fenny's based on the reviews of her razor techinque and that she probably knew how to handle thick, straight, asian hair. I was pretty disappointed with my hairstyle. I showed her a picture of what my hair use to look like, and my hair ended up 3-4 inches shorter. Fenny's explanation why my hair was cut so short was because of the type of layers I was requesting. I have a hard time believing her because my other stylist back home could produce the same layers without cutting 3-4 inches of my hair. This was a sign that she may not be that great of a stylist. I did like the way she cut my bangs, and the haircut sort of grew out nicely. However, I will not be going back to Fenny's salon read more
