Best Hair Salons In Somerville

“The Best Salon in the area! This is a NEWBURY St 5-star Salon w/ parking located in Somerville. From the moment you step in you’re treated like an exclusive client. You are given beverages and snacks if hungry. The hairstylists are attentive and educated in their services. The Salon is super clean and they use top rated products. I love this place and will continue to go. By the way my damaged mess of hair looked beautiful and soft and shiny. I got compliments all day!“

“Curl bar has changed the way I feel about my hair and made my daily routine manageable. I got relaxers starting age 5 for 25 more years. When I got tired of the chemicals, growing my hair out was a tough process. I couldn’t keep up with any routines as a busy surgeon and mom so it was mostly buns and not the cute kind. I started going to curlbar 4 years ago and Taylor gave me a routine I can manage. With 2 hours a week on wash day, I feel great about my curls all week and spend about 2 mins a morning on hair. It survives through workouts and work days in the OR. Also, I love visiting curlbar, it feels relaxing and fun and I love the celebration of beauty. Love curlbar!

Ps check out my day 1 curls at curlbar today.
Other shot with special guest was with day 5 curls!“

“I have been to little hallow a few times and I have always been happy with the services I received. Firstly I love the vibe! The dark and spooky decorations are so fun and quirky. Additionally staff are always kind a welcoming. I love getting my hair done and watching the owner talk to every person who passes by and addressing them by name. They say hello to every dog and every person and it is just such a beautiful part of the community. This past time I came I got a haircut and a Brazilian blowout it was $265. I was so happy with how much work and dedication was put into my haircut even though it was late and I was the only client in the salon. Thank you for everything!“

“Absolutely amazing people I simply cannot say it enough!!! Also it’s so nice to have found an alternative style salon that can truly bring all of your wildest visions to life ❤️“

“Maria is always so welcoming and flexible, she is great with kids, and it is always a good experience! My 8yo has been getting her hair cut here for over 1 year.“

“Ranjana does a wonderful job with my hair coloring and massage with the shampooing. The braiding is the topper!!!“

“Patrick was amazing—attentive to every detail and really listened to what I wanted. He took his time, was patient, and never made me feel rushed, truly caring about the results. My balayage is vibrant, and Patrick will be my hairstylist from now on. This is the first time I’ve left a salon with exactly what I wanted and truly loved the result. His care, even down to perfectly brushing out my hair before dyeing it and his expertise with foils, made all the difference. Michelle, the owner, was also so sweet and welcoming. Thanks so much !“

“This is the BEST barber shop you will find in Cambridge! I have been coming here for over a year and I have never been disappointed. Antonio is so careful, so thoughtful about every single detail - it’s simply so rare to find this type of service. They both take their time and always make sure you leave happy. Honestly, I cannot recommend them enough.“

“Clementine is the best! I was nervous about finding a new salon and stylist after moving to MA at the end of 2024, but I found Tirza at Clementine shortly after and have been back multiple times! T has made my color ideas look even better than I expected, and has always given me the exact cut I’ve envisioned. The salon as a whole is also so welcoming, and everyone is a sweetie. Can’t wait to be back!“

“Carla is fantastic! Have been going to her for 3 years and she has never let me down. All the staff is extremely kind, and it is always very clean and organized :)“

“I’m new to Boston, and this was my second haircut in the city. My first was at a different salon, but I wasn’t happy with it—the price was high, and the quality of the cut didn’t match the cost.

My boyfriend, who is very picky about his haircuts, recommended Studio M, and I’m so glad I took his advice. Michelle really listened to what I wanted and even asked if I wanted my hair washed. Since my hair was already clean and straightened, I didn’t need it, and I appreciated that she checked—especially because it would have been an extra $20-25. I love that she was upfront about it instead of adding unnecessary services just to increase the bill.

Not only was she honest, but she also gave me a great haircut. That kind of service earns loyalty, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this spot!“

“Jessica does such a great job with curly cuts!! You can tell she listens and wants her clients to love their hair. She won’t cut off more than you want“

“You never have to worry with Donna doing your hair. She has the education, skills and experience to back up her work.“

“Every time my husband visits Somerville, he makes it a point to schedule an appointment with Carmen. She takes her time and does an excellent job.“

“I’ve been going to Em at Hair by Christine and Co for a few months now, and I cannot recommend them enough! They did my cut before my wedding (fixing a 2-year grown out mullet to a layered bob), and they also did a big mullet transformation with me this summer. Em also gave me some great tips and products to try out that have fully changed my ability to style my hair. Truly the best hair service I’ve had in the Boston area with incredibly reasonable prices. The whole staff is so friendly and the vibes are always great! Can’t recommend them enough!“

“Brooklynn did an AMAZING job on my hair cut! She was the best hair stylist I’ve ever gone to!!“

“I had such a great experience at this salon - both with my nails and with a haircut. Solange was so welcoming and gave me exactly the haircut I wanted. I left feeling amazing! I also had a great experience with Ingrid as a nail tech. :)“

“Natacha is an amazing salon owner, hair stylist, mother and friend! Not only does Natacha absolutely SLAY IN HAIR but Natacha also has a wealth of knowledge in hair care! My hair has grown and has become very healthy in her hands! Natacha is very nurturing and caring with all her clients. She treats us like we are a part of her beautiful, kind family! I highly recommend Natacha for all of your hair care needs!!“

“Had a facial threading with Anita and it was a great experience! She was also super accommodating to me running a little late, which was much appreciated. Plus great prices compared to others in the area!“

“Great option for an affordable curly haircut! I’ve gotten expensive curly cuts in the past but this place was great for a trim. And the environment was very peaceful.

Hair type: Curly

Stylist: Delphi did a great job! Very quick and simple, but good for curly hair. She cuts it dry and wets it as she goes to make the curls pop out.“

“Richard has been cutting my hair now for a couple years from the place on Somerville Ave. Pleasant and relaxed setting and a great haircut. Always an enjoyable experience, so much so that I look forward to the visits and catching up.“

“Soma salon and spa is a wonderful place! Great atmosphere and great haircuts! I have gotten my hair cut by Val for about 8 years now, and she has always done an incredible job! Thank you Val!“

“Patrick always gives my hair the perfect bouncy shape! It could not look like this without his trim + blow out!“

“Such a nice salon experience, great conversation and advice on how to make my hair look its best!“
