    Nana B.

    Heard a lot a good thing about this place. But too bad I had the worst experience. He started thinning my hair without asking what is my preference. After that I kinda expected a wash since he didn't wash my hair before the cut. But he didn't, instead, he tried to make the cut look better with blow dry and hair straightener on my oily hair. And kept repeating to me that I made a big mistake on my hair style choice from when he started cutting till he finished. It's not like I never had this hair style before, I had it every few years. What's wore was he kept talking over me when we have conversation about my hair style choice. I felt very frustrated even before he started cutting. But since I heard a lot of good things about it, I gave it a try. Then I went home with very thin hair and choppy bang. Now can't wait for it to grow back.

    Ask the Community - Zen Hair

    Does the place have assigned parking spot?

    No assigned parking spots, but there are METERED parking spots available on Comm Ave. around BU, and Beacon Street (Hotel Buckminster, Citizens Bank).

    How much does haircut and coloring cost? I have never dye my hair before, so this would be my first hair dye.

    It costs me (a guy) $32 to have a haircut before tips

    How much shampoo and haircut cost?

    Depends on your gender and hair length. For me it's always $40 before tip and for my boyfriend it's $35.

    I would wait out my summers at home so I can get my hair cut by Freddy when I was back in Boston.

    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.

    I had my hair and make up done at ZenaRose for my bachelorette party. The salon is tucked away in…read moreBeacon Hill and offers many services. 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.

    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.
