Well, scrap all that because I saw the light and found a much better option. (And shame on me for being an idiot) Don's is all about attention to detail in an old-school environment. The price is right, too. Support the local scene. Buy some of their pomade too, and flip your hair up like Morrissey!

I have been getting my hair cut by Kim since I was just a little girl! She is super nice and always…read moredoes exactly what you ask. The ladies at this hair salon are super nice and conversational. I always get an appointment time that works for me. Once I arrive for my hair appointment, they ask if I'd like a wash. Of course I say YES. Who doesn't like someone else massaging their head and washing their hair. Its very relaxing. No matter who is my hairdresser that day, I always receive compliments on my hair and tips on how to do certain things with it along with product recommendations. They always ask how my mother is doing (she gets her hair highlighted there all the time) and how the rest of my family and life is doing. Every time I leave their salon, I have a smile on my face and beautiful shiny hair. Love love love!

I needed a hair cut and decided to search out a small "mom & pop" local shop to get a haircut. I'm a firm believer in "supporting local." That's exactly what I received at Shea's. Uhngi is a one person operation. Excellent customer service and a fantastic haircut at a reasonable price. I was very pleased and extremely satisfied. Highly recommended. I will defiantly return for a haircut the next time I'm in the neighborhood. Mahalo Uhngi!

Uhngi Shea is the owner and operator of Shea's Beauty Parlor. Uhngi has been open for about 3-4…read moreyears now, maybe longer (I forget). She used to work at a large Westerly establishment and then took off to start her own gig. One day she called me up to tell me to come on over and become a customer. I really can't judge hair cut quality. I'm a middle aged male who wears his hair short and gets it cut every 4-5 weeks. It can't be too hard to cut my hair. But this is what I like about Uhngi...she complains about the places that charge $30 to cut men's hair. In her own way, she is implying that the client is getting ripped off, i.e., it's an easy hair cut, not too much skill required, not too much hair to cut, etc. And for these reasons, $30 is overpriced for the work performed. For $18 at Uhngi Shea's, I get a great cut...care and attention to detail, good advice about my hair. I always tip her, and why shouldn't I? With a tip, my cost is still about 30% lower than the rest of the local salons. Overall, I've been very satisfied with Uhngi since I first became a client. I don't always get my hair cut in Westerly, but when I do, I get it cut at Uhngi Shea's.

This business has been here for twenty years and will probably continue for many more. It is a clean comfortable environment with good spacious seating and services for hair styling and nails. Maria is the owner and takes running her salon seriously. She is often there when I get my hair cut and is overseeing all that goes on there, and cuts hair as well. Michelle, has been my hairdresser for years. I have had a couple of hair styles and color changes, and have been satisfied with each one (Not easy to find someone like that). She is personable, efficient and accommodating. Morgan usually answers the phone, does scheduling and checks you out for payment. She has always been very friendly and accommodating. Bella Vita also has a blow-out salon next door for those special occasions for groups or individuals who want an exceptional look by professionals. Thank you Bella. It's and congrats to Maria for running a great service for her clients.

Unfortunately, in the Charlestown/Westerly area Yelp hasn't really taken off on anything but restaurants, and even that's debatable. So, I finally stumbled on some older reviews on FourSquare and decided to make an appointment with Paula. Paula is great! She's super friendly and makes you feel very comfortable during a situation which could be considered rather awkward. This wasn't my first Brazilian, however I can see how Paula would be great at helping you feel comfortable and walking you through the process if you are debating getting your first. I was also happy to find out that by rebooking (she suggests every 3 weeks) you're entitled to a reduced rate since it's considered maintenance versus a full on Brazilian. (I do enjoy saving money, however I also know not to go cheapo when it comes to Brazilians. My first experience was horrific, but I guess that's what I get for going to a salon that only charges $29...) I've already booked my next appointment with Paula and highly recommend you do the same!
