I am someone who doesn't…read morewant to make a ruse, so I will often bite my tongue when something isn't the way I want it for the sake of making sure other people are happy. And getting my hair done is no exception to that. I had been searching for a hair salon in Somerville for a few weeks now as I've been going back and forth about getting my hair cut short again. I finally made the decision and booked an appointment at Salon Luna. When I made the call to book, the person on the phone asked me what my hair was like and said he had some ideas for stylists who would be a good fit for my hair type. I LOVE that they did that. It made me really excited for my appointment. When I arrived at the salon, there were plenty of bottles of hand sanitizer and everything was very clean. Everyone was wearing a mask and clients were spaced out when hair was being cut, washed, or styled. They are not doing blow dries at the time which was also reassuring to hear that they are taking this seriously. I was seated and Sandra came to talk about what we would do with my hair. She was so incredibly friendly and had a lot of ideas and expertise on what she though would look good. We talked a little bit while she was cutting, but I didn't feel pressured at all about having to talk if I didn't want to, which was really nice. When she was done, I payed and we chatted some more about styling techniques. And then I left....but our journey doesn't end there. When I got home, my hair was starting to really dry and I didn't really love it. It was a lot longer than I had wanted and the layers weren't falling like I anticipated. I debated for a long time about whether or not I should call, especially because there are some iffy reviews on here about customer service once the client had left. But after much debate, I decided to call back. The person on the phone was so nice and said that they would absolutely be able to make an adjustment and scheduled me again with Sandra for the next day. When I came in today for the adjustment, Sandra was so kind and understanding about it. She expressed the reasons why she didn't cut it short, but said that if it's what I really wanted, then it would look great and we should go ahead and do it. The second appointment took about 20 minutes and I left feeling so so good. I was not charged a second time. I will definitely be back to Salon Luna. The customer service was awesome and Sandra was so so nice. She honestly made the whole experience worth it.

It's been almost 2 weeks since I got my hair done By Paula. I found this place on Instagram. I was ten minute late, but Paula was happy to take me. A day before my appointment I called in to book another appointment for men haircut for my husband. The man ( owner) said he will take care of my husband and just come in. I was excited to get my hair done again. It was more than a year since i got my hair done since I was pregnant. My husband, was also looking forward to the apt. because hes looking for a new Barber. So we were excited and glad we could able to be seen on the day. Paula took me in right away, while my husband has to wait for the owner to be done with his earlier client. as I been seated in the chair I tried to explain and show Paula exactly what i want. I do like color it but if the color will damange( of course it will be damage when you color it but eliminated as much as we can) than I can skip the color. She assured me she knows what i want and what im looking for. So I trusted her and let her do her thing. As I getting foil up, my husband still waiting for his turn,and it has been 20 min. in. 5 min. later, a guy walked in for is apt. at 10. The owner done with his earlier client and went on to take the guy who had the apt. at 10. (It wasn't his apt. it was someone at the salon but she running late and he has to take that client). I looked over my husband and sense that he is pissed. I understand that we were late, but hes been waiting at least 30 min. we would have been fine if he would just come and tell my husband, " oh while you wait for your wife, do you mind i take care this gentleman first and I will take care you?" so my husband waiting and waiting endless. While the salon trying to help an employee get to work over the phone. So, as i wait for my hair to be ready for wash, my husband finally getting his hair cut. after the wash, i was getting ready for blow dry and to style. Now that my husband is done, hes back and wait for me to be done. I saw my hair frying as she blow dry my hair. I can see that it is so dry that i can break anytime. She repeatedly " this hair Balayage need to style it in order for it to bring out the color". As she curl to style it, im thinking to myself" i dont have time to curl my hair everyday and place it in place like she does it" the color came out nice, but not what i was asked for. I was not " WOW" with the color since it wasn't what i asked for, plus I clearly mentioned I care for my hair condition more than the color. we went to pay and as i Remembered. When i book my apt. they mentioned 25% off or first time client. But she gave me 20%. Ok, thats fine. no biggie. But it just wasn't what i was told but whatever. My husband was not happy with his haircut ( there are still few strand long and short, not a neat cut.) plus the experience I was ok, not really happy the fact that it took me a year and half to grow it out to be healthy now it back or worst than before. read more

I am writing this review for Elena at Haute Coiffure. The salon in and of itself is okay. Not the nicest salon ever, but Elena makes it worth it! When I originally called to make an appointment with Elena based on her reviews, the woman answering the phone tried to dissuade me from scheduling with her. I asked what Elena's availability was for a keratin, cut and color. I knew that since it would be a long appointment I might have to wait a bit to get in. The woman on the phone was adamant about getting me in the next day with someone else, but I wanted to wait for Elena. After me having to do some pushing for my wants she told me to come in on a Wednesday at 4:30pm with Elena. When I got to the salon, a woman with wet hair greeted me and told me I was her client. She said since I was early she needed to blow dry and style her hair really quickly. Although I found it really unprofessional for the stylists to be doing their own hair, I figured I was 15 minutes early so I could wait. Around 4:35pm the woman came for me with her dried and styled hair and sat me in her chair. She introduced herself as Tiffany and I said, "I am supposed to be with Elena". Tiffany said, "oh! I thought you were my client, sorry!" Meanwhile, the woman who IS Elena could have taken me. Elena actually asked if I had been helped while I was sitting and waiting, but since Tiffany already assumed that I was hers I said I was taken care of. After finally getting into Elena's chair I couldn't have been happier. She was super sweet, professional and did and AMAZING job on my hair. I have long, coarse, strawberry blonde hair. I knew I wanted a change and was debating cutting it all off. She, unlike many other stylists, colored my hair to perfection, cut it perfectly while being able to keep all of the length, and I couldn't be happier with my keratin treatment. I will be going back to Elena from here on out for my color, keratins, and cuts. Thank you, Elena! read more

Come here and request Elena! I've been looking for so long for a salon that offers the same attention to detail and service as the Japanese hair salon I used to go to before, and Haute Coiffure, especially thanks to Elena, is it. I called on the recommendation of my little sister and was able to get an appointment a couple days later. I wanted to do a reddish balayage or ombre for the first time and I brought a picture on my phone. I naturally have very dark Asian hair, which has to have a lot done to it if brighter colours are wanted. Elena really cares about your hair and will help you understand what options are best so you don't destroy your hair. There was a little miscommunication during the first appointment and I ended up calling the next day to see if there was any way I could come back and blend the colours a little more. Elena was fully booked and I was leaving in two days to go back to university, but she is incredibly wonderful and reassuring and offered to see me early before the salon opened. Even though it was early, and she was going to be booked up that day, she never rushed my hair and still took the time to make sure everything was done just as nicely as the first time, for no charge. I absolutely love my hair; the gradient from a red to caramel blonde is so well done and the colour has depth; it isn't flat and has subtle differences like natural hair would. And it's so bright in the sun! Elena truly goes above and beyond to make sure you love your hair. If you're a student looking to do something new with your hair colour, I'd highly recommend coming to Elena and Haute Coiffure, their prices are very reasonable compared to elsewhere, and their service is absolute top notch. I will definitely be coming back to Elena. Thank you so much, Elena! read more

Elena is absolutely AMAZING - I am so thrilled that I found her as my new go-to colorist after a long search of getting mediocre results elsewhere... I can't say enough how pleased I am with results now that I've gotten balayage color two times. As someone with long, thin, and somewhat-damaged hair from processing it over many years, I was a bit hesitant to explore coloring it again but knew I wanted a change. After showing Elena a couple of photos of what I was looking for and her asking me a few questions, she assured me that we were on the same page and then ran with it... Just an hour later, my hair was transformed - the color was absolutely gorgeous yet very natural looking. Along with the color being spot on, Elena gave an absolute killer blowout that was the perfect finishing touch. The beauty of balayage is that it grows out naturally, which is great for someone like me who wants the fun of color but not the obligation of timely upkeep. I went back yesterday after five months since my previous appointment and was looking to go much lighter with the color... and Elena didn't disappoint. I couldn't be happier with my new summer color. Elena is a master of her craft and makes for a fun, easy, worry-free, and relatively quick (which I love!) appointment. I trust her to work her magic and can be rest assured that I'll be happy with the results. She's made me into a regular! read more

Since June 2023, I've entrusted Zena with both my cut and color, and I've consistently been thrilled with the results. After enduring disappointing balayage experiences in NYC, where my hair color dramatically changed after just one wash, I was on the hunt for a salon that could deliver the quality and consistency I craved, without breaking the bank. Zena came highly recommended, and from the moment I stepped into her salon, I knew I was in good hands. I expressed my desire for a low-maintenance, warm-toned balayage to Zena, who not only listened attentively but exceeded my expectations with her artistry. What sets Zena apart is her honesty; she won't hesitate to steer you away from a color or cut that she feels won't complement you. It's this level of integrity that I truly appreciate. Recently, I decided to switch things up and opt for a cooler, ashy color, and once again, Zena worked her magic. What's particularly impressive is Zena's ability to color your hair in a way that allows for flexibility - giving you the option to tweak the tone and color without feeling tied down. Zena, thank you for consistently providing exceptional service and for ensuring that every visit to your salon is a delightful experience. You've truly mastered your craft, and I'm grateful to have found you! read more

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Haute Coiffure Salon for a balayage treatment, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the staff, and the ambiance of the salon was inviting and clean. My stylist, Zena, was not only skilled but also incredibly friendly and fun to be around. I really appreciated Zena looking at the photo of the hair color I wanted serval times throughout the process instead of just winging it. The balayage itself turned out beautifully! The color was exactly what I had envisioned, and the technique used by Zena was flawless. They paid great attention to detail, ensuring that the color was seamlessly blended. This was especially difficult since I had a blend of natural hair as well as previously dyed hair. Throughout the process, Zena made sure I was comfortable and engaged me in enjoyable conversation, which made the time fly by. It's evident that they are passionate about their craft and genuinely care about their clients' satisfaction. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my experience. I highly recommend Haute Coiffure to anyone looking for top-notch hair care in a welcoming environment. I'll definitely be returning for future visits! read more

I have been really wanting to get an ombre for some time now. I came upon this salon and was a bit skeptical so I called and spoke to Paula who was super nice and gave me a discount right off the bat! So scheduled an appointment with her in just about 2 days from when I called which was really convenient. Once I got there Paula took me right away and I showed her a picture of what I wanted. She talked to me about the color and what would look good with my kind of hair and skin tone. I completely trusted her and let her do her thing. Paula even offered to blow dry my hair no charge (she could probably tell how nervous I was about doing an ombre). Long story short, I'm in love with my hair. It's exactly how I wanted it to turn out and I was so nervous to do it at first. Paula also showed me this product that she recommended I use on my new ombre hair and it keeps me hair so healthy and soft. I am absolutely going back to get a touch up there. If you're going for an ombre see Paula she's the absolute best and she's super sweet. I have never posted a review on yelp but I loved Paula so much I just had to, and money wise an ombre is about $120 here but trust me it's so worth it. read more

I've had many appointments at Haute Coiffure and I can honestly say that I've never walked away disappointed. A close friend recommended this place to me and he recommended that I see Jen. Jen has cut, bleached, and dyed my hair countless times and she has done this flawlessly; many people gave me complements about my hair since I started going to her, and even more people asking where/with whom I got it done. I have thick natural brown hair and when I went to get it dyed blonde, Jen expertly changed it to the exact color that I asked for while at the same time advising me how I should wear it, what options I have to make it look better, etc. Jen listens extremely carefully to what you want to do with your hair while continually asking for more detail to make sure the job is done perfectly. In addition, having an appointment with Jen is more than just a haircut; she offers awesome conversation that makes the time pass quickly. In all honesty getting my hair done has turned from an annoying errand I had to run every 2 weeks to an anticipated and enjoyed event in my life since I started seeing Jen. Amazing stylist, if I could give more stars I would!! read more

I recently visited this salon to inquire about their Keratin services and to check if they accept Groupon coupons. Unfortunately, the experience was far from pleasant due to the extremely rude and unwelcoming attitude of the lady at the reception. I was informed that they would match the Groupon price but charge an additional $30 for my thick hair. This raises the question: why advertise on Groupon if the conditions discourage its use? It felt misleading. The worst part was when I was trying to negotiate why charge extra my husband reacted with a polite, light-hearted chuckle, and the receptionist responded with such rudeness,, accusing him by saying, "Why are you laughing? Does this sound funny to you?" Her confrontational behavior escalated further, making us feel extremely uncomfortable. It got to the point where I had to interrupt and end the conversation abruptly just to stop the negativity. This level of customer service is simply unacceptable. It's disheartening to imagine how they would handle actual services if they treat potential customers this way. I'm relieved I checked in person before committing to anything. read more

Zena was extremely welcoming and professional. She cared so much about making sure we were aligned on what my expectations were and what I was looking for. She took the time to understand and was very open to feedback if I wanted to change anything. My hair is very dark and curly and it is hard to find people who know how to handle this kind of hair. The end result was the best color I have seen on my hair and she did a lot to make sure it stayed healthy. She was dedicated to the process from start to finish and is by far the best hair colorist I have found in Boston! George was very responsive, flexible and friendly when figuring out scheduling. It is usually very hard to get in touch with the salon but he made sure to help provide me with any information needed and was quick with scheduling! He was also very kind during my appointment and brought lots of good energy. The entire salon has great staff who clearly care and are very talented with hair! They do as much as possible to accommodate the client which is very appreciated! read more

Edit: If you value your hair, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE I BEG YOU. This man George knows nothing about how to cut hair. He only cares about making a quick buck. If you ask him whether he knows how to cut your style of hair, he will lie and say yes. Terrible job. What is even more unbelievable is after he ruins your hair he will ask you *NOT* to put a bad review. I am saving you all from experiencing it the hard way. Worst haircut ever, showed him what I wanted and he gave me whatever he felt like he wanted to give me. Then when i visibly showed my disapproval of the haircut he tried to gaslight me into agreeing it was a good cut. Sideburns were uneven, the length on the back was uneven, everything was uneven. Honestly, I beg you to save your money and go elsewhere, or have fun waiting weeks to grow out your hair to cut it at an actual hair salon. George, fuck you sincerely, you genuinely have me THE WIRST HAIRCUT in my entire life. You've been working at the salon for 14 yrs and still dont know how to cut hair. Go fuck yourself read more

Thank you so much Zena for my hair! I recently had the pleasure of visiting Zena for a hair color transformation, and I am beyond thrilled with the results! From the moment I walked in, I felt completely at ease. Zena took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted, offering expert advice based on my hair type, skin tone, and personal style. The color itself is absolutely stunning! Zena blended the shades perfectly, creating depth and dimension that I didn't even know I needed. The color is rich, vibrant, and exactly what I envisioned--if not better. I've received so many compliments already! Not only is Zena a master of their craft, but they are also incredibly personable and make the entire experience enjoyable. The attention to detail, care, and precision that went into my hair color left me feeling pampered and confident. If you're looking for a stylist who truly knows how to elevate your hair game, look no further than Zena. Highly recommend! read more

This salon is amazing and Zena is the very best stylist/colorist!! I came into Haute Coiffure last week with a botched coloring job done at another salon. My hair was orange, yellow, white, red, and brown (it was AWFUL), not to mention my scalp was burned in several areas due to the improper use of chemicals. Zena had the knowledge, experience, patience and kindness to work her magic on me and within a few hours, I came out of the salon with my blond hair looking better than ever before!! It took her multiple treatments to restore my hair because it was in such bad shape, but she never irritated my scalp, which was shocking given that my head had multiple scabs on it from the prior burns. The products this salon uses are top notch and all of the stylists there create such a warm and welcoming environment. They are not only extremely talented professionals, but they're also wonderful people. I feel very lucky to have found Zena and Haute Coiffure!! read more

YOU MUST READ THIS REVIEW: I had my hair done by Joe. First I did highlights then Keratine. My hair was a mess before I got to Joe. Not only did he do an excellent job with the highlights without damaging my hair, he did a fantastic job restoring my hair's health. Been doing Keratine treatment at the best salons worldwide and with the top hairstylists, and I had NEVER seen such spectacular results as I did with Joe. My hair went from dry, damaged, frizzy tight curls to straight like a ruler. All I need to do is wash it and brush it as I am drying it, and it falls straight. It does not frizz even in the most humid weather. It is difficult to impress me, but I am blown away by Joe's work. Not only is he kind and caring, he takes care of my hair like no hairstylist has ever done. He works conscientiously and hard to restore the hair's health. He is also responsive and knows the hair's needs with all its varieties. He is simply THE BEST! read more

I had my haired dyed in December at a different salon and it didn't turn out right at all. I asked for a blonde balayage and I got yellow streaks. I called Haute Coiffure after doing some research for the best places/stylists for blondes. That's where I found Elena! I'm always nervous at first but Elena was such a sweet person. She has great technique for balayage and doesn't process the ends of your hair until the end of the dying session, which left my ends undamaged. Elena then fixed my uneven hair cut from another salon and even triple checked to make sure the color was what I wanted. Not only was Elena amazing but the whole staff was very friendly and down to earth. They wrote down places to take my mom to dinner when she visits this weekend. I highly advise anyone wanting balayage to book an appointment with Elena. You won't be disappointed. read more

I've been following Joe's IG for a while and with no doubt I scheduled an appointment with him and it was the best decision I made for pampering myself, it was a 5 stars service.He gave me a relaxing massage when he was washing my hair , than a balayage ( more beautiful than the picture that I showed him) , a fresh hair cut and a beach waves that lasted me for 3 days and it may last more if I didn't go to the pool , I got so many complements , in addition to his high skills , he's so professional, welcoming, fast and funny. He was using a high quality products, he was so friendly and smiling the whole time and I was surprised when he told me that he has 30+ years experience because he looks so young and handsome , I highly recommend Joe he's my new and all time hairdresser from now on. Thank you expert for making me feel beautiful and confident. read more

I came in to get my hair cut, colored, & deep conditioned. Was greeted warmly at reception and offered water, afterwards Avi (or is it Abi?) proceeded to take care of me and gave me exactly what I was looking for! Not only did he do an amazing job on the cut & color (getting the exact color I showed him a picture of), but he was also an amazing person to interact with!:) Avi was super easy going and helped consult me about my next haircut. I was going to purchase a Groupon but called to see if they had availability and they offered to honor the Groupon price if I wanted to just pay directly at the salon (instead of through Groupon), that was fantastic as well :) Thanks for a great experience! I will definitely be coming back. PS: super convenient to get here by T, it is right off the red line South station stop. read more

I was so happy I was with my hair and makeup for my son's recent wedding. Corey took such great…read morecare with creating an updo for me and made the whole experience feel special. I walked out the door feeling polished, confident, and absolutely perfect for the occasion. My hair stayed beautifully in place throughout the evening and into the next morning for the after wedding brunch. I received so many compliments. Anita did a beautiful job with my makeup. She gave me a natural, elegant look that complemented my hair perfectly and made me feel completely put together for the wedding. I had stressed so much about my hair and makeup beforehand, and once I was in their hands, I didn't have to think about either one again. It was such a pleasure to relax and simply enjoy the day.

He went out of his way to contact us and apologize personally. I appreciate the accountability he took for his staff, and he was sure to make it right. Very good business ethic from Jay. ** Absolutely UNACCEPTABLE experience with Avanti this Sunday, July 20th 2025. My sister was getting married on Sunday, an 11:00AM ceremony. We made an appointment with Avanti (Corey specifically) for that morning. After some back and forth on timing we received confirmation that Corey would come in early for the service at 9:00AM. We were quoted a base fee of $150. (confirmation email attached) The morning of the wedding arrives and we take a cab across town to get the bride's hair done. We go up the four flights of stairs and arrive at a locked, dark salon. No one was there. No lights, nothing. We knocked, no one. We pulled up the email and confirmed again that Corey had promised to be here. We emailed them confirming we were waiting and to please get in touch (they never responded to that email - also attached.) We called the number listed and it was an automated message, no way to speak to a real person. The bride is obviously distraught, the ceremony starts in two hours and we have no one to do her hair. We waited around until around 9:30AM and finally couldn't wait any longer. We were beyond grateful to the outstanding salon next door, James Joseph Salon, for their extremely accommodating, empathetic, and beautiful work. They rushed us in the door immediately and had us BOTH walking out 45 minutes later with incredible style, at an unbeatable price. Halfway through my sister getting her hair rescued, we received a call from Avanti asking where we were. I stated that no one showed up, it was unacceptable behavior for ANY day let alone a wedding appointment. She said "Well, we're here now." No apologies, no empathy, nothing. She should be lucky I hung up before saying what I wanted to. DO NOT trust this salon with your time, your credit card information, or your hair - you'd be much better off heading next door to James Joseph Salon. They show up.

I do not pay to get my hair done often but when I do I love a bouncy regular blowout with a slight curl underneath (the curl that is formed naturally from the round brush). Always thought the term blowout was understood in the salon industry as straight with a slight twist but she added a lot of curls (could've been my mistake). She was kind enough to redo them twice when I expressed dissatisfaction, but was still not understanding the concept of what I was asking for or my reference picture. Ended up going with a straight blowout since I knew that was something I could work with to achieve the look at home. Just upset that I ended up paying $60 which already felt like a lot for a fully straight blowout (and spent an hour at the salon), a result that I could've done myself
