Best Beauty Salons In Malden

“I was a new client to this salon. I realized my hair was boring and all one length and needed some life to it. - Picture in yellow is before. - I did some research and decided to try this salon. I called the day before and they were able to fit me in next day (today). The staff is super nice and ACTUALLY welcoming and likes having you there. They make sure you’re comfortable. They offer water, coffee, food, etc. I talked to them about allergies I have and they were happy to accommodate. This meant I washed my hair the day before, and asked them not to use any products. The salon is also really clean and well kept. (Honestly, a lot of other salons are not well kept or friendly. So this was a nice change of pace.) I had just had my hair cut about 4 weeks ago and I asked to keep my length as much as possible. I asked for long bangs I could put behind my ears, face framing, long layers, some movement. Everything came out great and it looks a lot better. The one thing that stinks is, I miss some of the length. I lost about 4-5 inches in the cut but it will grow back. I understand it’s tough to get layers and length when your hair is thin but I get it. It’s not a big deal. I’ll probably let it grow out for a few months like I usually do and go from there. Aside from some of the length being gone, I love it. It looks healthier and has movement and dimension. It’s not boring anymore. AND I got a compliment in the lobby of our apartment when I came home, so that’s a plus. It’s noticeable which is also good. Thanks guys!!

Context you probably don’t need - Over the last few decades I’ve been to my fair share of places for my nails, haircuts and recently highlights as my hair has gotten a bit darker with age. I’m 40 now!! :) I’ve always been naturally blonde - platinum as a kid. I also lost a lot of hair over the decades due to medical treatments.

Previously, I was a salon assistant in a couple places, as well as offered reiki in a few salons. I love being in salons. If it wasn’t for allergies, I would have pursued hairdressing.“

“My favorite place! I’ve been coming here for over 5 years, and I absolutely love Tiago’s work. Edson at the front desk is always welcoming and makes every visit a great experience. I’ve also had blowouts with Marta, and she’s incredibly professional. Pedicure with Adenisia as well. Can’t say enough.
I also love that they host pop-up events from time to time. It’s such a warm, friendly place, and it’s perfect for visiting with family( mom and daughter moment) as well. Highly recommend!“

“I’ve been going to Beauty Lounge by Lex for years, and she truly never disappoints! Every single time I get my hair done with her, it’s such an amazing experience from start to finish. She always makes me feel comfortable, and my hair comes out SO good every time. I always leave feeling beautiful and obsessed with the results. After all these years, the consistency is unmatched. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their hair! 🤍✨“

“Kind, friendly staff. Thorough and healing massage, rejuvenating facial. Overall a wonderful experience!“

“I moved to the area a little over a year and a half ago and was lucky to find myself living right across from Hidden Beauty. I walked in looking to get my eye brows down and quickly found my go-to brow girl!

If you live in the Boston area and you’re looking for someone to make you feel gorgeous and cared for, I can’t recommend Shalini enough! She’s truly talented! 💕✨“

“First time coming to the salon and I absolutely love the atmosphere ! Aline took amazing care of my hair and delivered exactly what I wanted . Absolutely recommend !“

“Amita is the best she’s so professional she knows what she’s doing very warm and welcoming I highly recommend thank you for excellent service“

“I enjoyed my experience at this salon from start to finish. I recieved a deep conditioning treatment and a silk press. As someone who suffers from psoriasis on the scalp, my scalp felt amazing afterwards I was extremely happy with my results. I will be returning soon.“

“Came here without an appointment and not much time to spare. Amazing service. Thank you, Annie 🫶🏼“

“What a great salon/school. It’s clean, the workers are kind and welcoming. The students attending the school are the ones who work in the salon. Such a great opportunity to get a great cut and color at a reasonable price while providing the students an opportunity to learn. It’s a win-win!“

“Absolutely the best barber I’ve been to. Clean fade, perfect attention to detail, and great customer service. He takes his time to make sure everything is on point. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fresh, sharp cut. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Really friendly staff and great service. The k-tips added length and volume without any heaviness due to proper placement and micro tip technique. Really happy with my experience ?“

“I had a wonderful facial with Mya. It was so relaxing and she gave a wonderful head massage, hand and shoulder massage. Mya explained everything she was doing with the products. I highly recommend her.
I have already booked my next appointment.
And Michelle, the owner is wonderful!“

“Wonderful neighborhood salon.
The stylists are terrific and each have their own special talents geared towards their client needs. Call Mandy's they will do you right.“

“Michelle is the absolute BEST, very talented & professional who also charges reasonable prices“

“I highly recommended this salon very clean, professional and welcoming. Maria was very gentle with my hair. I wi go back“

“Princess from Gonikai Beauty is a miracle worker who saved my long hair!

I have had very long hair for decades, since I was a child, and I'm extremely attached to it. I was devastated and very afraid when, due to an injury, my hair unexpectedly became severely matted. I am incredibly grateful to have found Princess from Gonikai beauty who, through great skill and compassion, carefully dematted all of my hair over the course of sixteen hours! To say that she went above and beyond would be an understatement. She stayed as long as it took to completely save my hair, which was incredibly helpful because otherwise there would have been a long delay that would have lost progress. She cares so deeply about hair and her clients. The love she shows for hair is unparalleled! And even though she took her time and was careful, she was still more efficient than another salon that had expertise in dematting. I truly cannot recommend Gonikai Beauty enough, including for anyone desperate to save their hair. Having been through this and looked into other options, if I had a friend in a similar situation who lived in another state I would genuinely recommend that they consider flying to MA and staying in a hotel to go to Gonikai Beauty. Please consider Gonikai Beauty for any and all hair needs, and particularly those that require special love and care!“

“The HydraFacial treatment at this clinic is exceptional! My skin feels rejuvenated, hydrated, and visibly smoother after just one session. Highly recommend for anyone seeking professional skincare!“

“Claudia is the best hair stylist I have been to. She is truthful and will tell you what style haircut is best for your type of hair. I would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a wonderful stylist.“

“Best spot in town. Rob is a great guy and always delivers a clean cut. It's easy to see why they've been around as long as they have!“

“Best massage I’ve ever had. She will relieve stress from ten years ago that you didn’t even know you carried in your body. Better than a modern American doctor. You won’t regret your visit.“

“I could never recommended anyone MORE!!! Kerri is simply the best at what she does. She’s a perfectionist so she will never let you walk out the door not looking perfect. I have been with her for almost 3 years now and have always left my appointment so happy!“

“Ava went ABOVE AND BEYOND for me! If there was a chance to give unlimited stars I would give that! I basically just went in, wanting and expecting a haircut and quick blow dry, but Ava exceeded my expectations! She not only cut my hair perfectly, but she actually took the time to get to know me and my life, gave the best scalp massage I have had in YEARS, and styled my hair in a way even I couldn’t do as a 10 year stylist myself.

Do not ever be afraid when in the hands of Ava because I plan to go back to her especially! Thank you so much!“

“I absolutely love this hair salon! It’s clean, affordable, and everyone is so courteous. The owner is wonderful—always attentive and makes sure you feel well taken care of, even offering snacks while you’re there.

The service is truly the best, which is why I don’t mind driving 1 hour and 15 minutes to come here. It’s worth it every time! If you visit, make sure to try the ozone treatment—your hair will thank you.“

“I been going to Imane for 5 years now for most of my beauty services. Wax, eyebrows/tint, and nails. She is the only one I trust to do my brows. Imane’s customer services is exceptional, professional and exceeds my expectations every time.“
