I like getting my hair cut here a lot. It was the first place I ever went to that actually washed my hair for me. For guys, going to a salon may sound a bit over the top, but at only $30 for men's cuts, paying $16 for a half-blind supercut withers in comparison. There are also cats slinking around in the background..which are a nice touch, UNLESS YOU'RE ALLERGIC! Everyone there is great at what they do, but I usually go with Andrea if I can. Fun Fact: Apparently I left a picture of some hair ideas (including an old picture of myself) at the salon after a cut...I'm told it's now in their Style Book. Too bad I just shaved my head....

I always wanted fuller lips, but did not want to have an extreme or permanent surgical procedure, so I decided to check out the Juvederm filler services offered at Goldenface Med Spa. I have to say, I was extremely pleased with the service and the results and would definitely recommend Goldenface to anyone looking for this type of procedure. The care and attention I received was wonderful and I will definitely go back again!

Anna Mulholland, founder of Manna Massage, meets with her clients to discuss the type of massage that will best meet their needs.

I have been getting massages at various places in the Boston area for about 15 years, and this is the absolute best massage I've ever received. I only wish I could go more often! It is very relaxing for my often sore muscles, and Dorea focuses in on those areas that you ask her to. She's very responsive and I always leave feeling much better than when I came in.
Pros: Very affordable, Great atmosphere, Excellent massage

unbelievable shop the artist are very attentive and very talented the shop is clean and neat appointments are best but walk-ins seem to do ok. I've even seen them at the tattoo convention and they seem to be quite the draw. highly recommend

I spent four of my undergraduate years in Houston, and eventually found a Vietnamese stylist that I loved and went to regularly. Fast forward to now, and I find myself in Boston looking for a place to get a haircut--I got one with an Italian dude and other with a Russian lady, both were more money than I wanted to spend, and the haircuts were horribly uneven with several stray hairs that were missed.
I had my haircut with Judy, who I believe is the store owner. She's meticulous, talking with me about how I wanted my hair and going over it several times to make sure of its evenness and to catch any random hairs. She asked me several times how close I wanted it, really working to make sure it was perfect. I got a clipper on the sides and a razor cut on the top with some thinning. She spent total around 40 minutes on a very straight forward guy's haircut and also gave me a decent shampoo. I paid $15 for the cut, shampoo, and a $1 student discount. The regular cut is $12 with the student discount.
I'll be coming back again.

This place is run by Korean hair stylists. So if you have Asian hair texture, I recommend this place. The staff is friendly and the place is modern. They *know* how to do Asian hair right and is better than the salons I tried on Newbury street.

Coco Cosmetics is a bit of a hidden gem in the typically more alternative neighborhood of Allston. They carry the very best lines- most of which are imported. Several stand out brands are Chanel and La Prairie (one of the few area locations that even carry these names). Also worth a mention are the unlabeled tubes of cosmetics that are imported from Asia. These are just awesome and this is the only place you can get them in the area. The staff here is also super friendly and always willing to help.

This Barbershop has two barbers who would actually initiate a conversation with you and listen to what kind of haircut you want! They're not dull at all and they let you wash your hair twice during the haircut. The first time is to wash any foreign objects out and the second time is to mold it for the perfect cut. They always ask you what you want before they actually do it. They pay attention to every detail! I'm always satisfied with my hair after entering that place.
