I am the reigning Miss Teen United States-World and I am constantly in the spotlight. My hair is always being damaged from being straightened and curled. The James Joseph Salon graciously sponsored me throughout my reign with my main stylist as Christina. All I can say is she is amazing! I have never had a stylist be able to blend me layers as well as she does. The cut made my hair look so much healthier and it didn't have the choppy layers most artists give you. She also highlighted my hair, this was sort of a spur of the moment decision but I am so glad I got them! They look awesome and spice up my hair so much! Too top it off she is a total sweetheart and keeps you satisfied! I highly recommend going to Christina!!

So I was on Newbury Street shopping for sunglasses, and I noticed that the salon under the sunglass store was jam-packed and had a sign in the window - Best Haircut Under $50. I thought to myself, "Self. You should try out that place." Two weeks later, I needed a haircut and went in. Wow! It was the best haircut I ever! I saw Kashmir. She's cute as a button and really knows what she's doing. The salon has a great buzz, yet I never felt forgotten. It was a great experience from start to finish.
Pros: Skilled haircut, great energy
Cons: low ceilings

I have lived in Chicago, New York and now Boston and have never had such a phenomenal hair stylist in my entire life!!!!! I gave JJStudio 5 stars for their great service but especially for Ashley's fabulous talent!!!
Ashley ( along with all of the stylist at JJStudio) will never let you leave her chair unhappy with your haircut or style. The first time I went to ashley she cut my hair for over an hour because I kept changing my mind and asking for more layers or to cut my hair shorter. I left 100% satisfied and have been going to ashley for all of my hair needs. With Highlights, she is an artist!!! i felt like she worked on my hair as if it were her own personal masterpiece! She blended all of my many different hair colors to work together and look so incredibly natural. I have gone from light brown, to super blonde highlights, to very dark brown almost black hair and she always makes my hair look great!!! Ashley just knows what she is doing and takes such pride in her work. Very personable and super easy to talk to! Not only is she a great stylist but a great person as well. She makes the whole experience marvelous and enjoyable. So happy to have met her! I have truly been blessed by the hair gods and I strongly recommend her!! Many of my friends have gone to her and love her as much as i do. My newest friend who just moved to Boston made an appointment with her today. I'm not the only one in love with her talent : ) Try it out for yourself you will not be disappointed!
Pros: Ashley
Cons: nothing

went for a partial foil last week. made me wait 25 min - no explanation. highlights were decent, but for $165 I expected to be pampered and believe it or not she did not eve dry my hair (I had to do it myself)
they said that would be additional $95 JUST FOR DRYING . but the worst part it shhe had 2 clients scheduled at once - so was running between us - stressed out - for this kind of price - are you kidding me. NEVER AGAIN
Pros: NOTHING
Cons: no value

12/7/08 - The Sunday Science Project is back!!!!! But I am not a Science Project any more, my hair looks better than ever. And it is getting closer and closer to the style I am looking for. I received so many compliments on my hair I lost count, it made me feel like a new woman, and I thank Kylene for that! I would give you 10 stars if I could! I apologize for giving Grant a new name; previously I referred to him as Graham. Thank you guys it was a great morning, and again, I love, love, love my hair ... see you in 6 weeks. I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday.
11/2/08 - Today I went to Kylene at James Joseph Studio in Medford. This was the first time I had ever been to a James Joseph Salon and poor Kylene was really put to the test! I had my hair done a week ago at another salon; my roots were red/pink/plum brassy awful with a hair cut to match. Kylene took one look at me, told me what needed to be done and she did it. She took a mess and did a magical makeover. Not only is all the red/pink/plum brassy gone, but I have beautiful highlights, and a short hair cut that is fun, classy, modern and has movement! She did a wonderful job, I feel like a new person. I also want to thank Kelly for booking me and Grant for his suggestions, you are all wonderful. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! You have a client for life. I cannot thank you enough ? you are truly the Best of the Best! Grazie Infinite?!
Pros: I have only good things to say about James Jospeh in Medford

I've spent my life chasing the perfect haircut. From Supercuts (I know, I deserved to look bad), to the dizzying array of high-priced salons on Boston's Newbury Street, I've plunked down as much as $300 for drop-dead-gorgeous hair, only to feel dissapointed, super broke and super stupid.
I started to blame my hair. Maybe trying to transform this long, straight, part-down-the-middle hair into something drop-dead gorgeous was, well, unrealistic. Then I met Eva, whose scissors are truly a magic wand.
This girl can cut. Eva is more than a hair stylist. She is an artist who knows her medium.
For the record, my hair isn't the easiest to work with. It's pin straight with a kickin' cowlick above my right eye.
I wanted to keep my length but have some style. Maybe even leap into bangs. Eva really listened to what I wanted and took the time to study how my hair moved.
Eva knows hair texture and shape, and how to make a cut compliment the contours of your face.
Friendly and confident, as Eva snipped, she explained how the hair would fall, what works and what doesn't.
When she was done, I had what I was looking for my entire life. A conservative look for my career but with a little edge to keep it sylish and interesting.
After my first visit to Eva, I was standing in line for coffee when two women told me I had beautiful hair.
After the fourth visit, I know my life-long search is over.
My straight hair has shape and blends flawlessly. Even my cowlick behaves, and every cut grows out beautifully.
It's like I was born with great hair. All it took was a trip to Eva's chair to realize it.
Thank you Eva. You love hair, you love people, you love your job and it shows!
Everyone at James Joseph, especially Eva's fantastic assistant, Anastasia, has been friendly, fun, and provided great service in a relaxed atmosphere.
Visit Eva. You will get a haircut that enhances life.

I got a haircut from Kashmir about a month ago. First off, she actually LISTENED and did EXACTLy what i said. she understood what I wanted, without me having to use the actual hairdresser terms (who knows those terms anyway). She didn't get mad when I decided mid-haircut I actually wanted one more inch off...and my hair STILL looks absolutely fantastic. She was friendly, didn't rush, and showed me how to style my hair when I asked instead of rushing off to her next appointment or doing some BS job of showing me. The shampoo girl was also really nice. The one bad side..the front desk is slightly rude, but if you're aware of that, and don't let it get to you, they'll warm up to you and won't give you problems.
Pros: great haircut for a great price....what more could you want?
Cons: front door staff...but even they're not that bad.

I had a haircut from kylene. Let me just say I came out worse than I came in. She was rude, didnt seem like she cared to cut at all even though she's supposedly an "advanced stylist." It seemed as if i went to supercuts and wasnt worth the 55$ at all. Let me also point out that I wanted a simple cut normal cut thats even. And let me point out that I am a man. I cant even imagine what she would do for more complicated haircuts. I've been here twice with two different people and both times, they have messed up. If you want the same haircut for like 10$ go to supercuts!
Pros: None
Cons: worst haircut

I really wanted to like James Joseph but my haircuts were horrible. I gave it three tries, each with a different person. The last one I had was by kylene or someone. I came in asking for a simple cut. Nothing crazy. First of all she made me wait 10 minutes before she showed up. Second of all, her technique of cutting was all over the place. My hair is longer from the back than it is on top. Some parts of the back of my head are longer than the rest. She didn't seem to care about cutting and I felt like she wanted to get it over with. It was definitely a waste of money and my search for a good haircut place in Boston goes on. I heard Brandon Keith is very good so I'm going to give that a try. Very disappointed..
Cons: Bad stylists
