So I went to Amaci Salon for the first time and was very nervous to change to a new salon. I requested Amad as my stylist because he had amazing reviews. I came into the salon and...

After reading all of these great reviews about Anna, I decided to try her out. Don't get me wrong, Anna is a very sweet woman who made me feel very comfortable. I went in to get m...

Best of Boston and anywhere else 10/8/2008

Amaci salon is the best. I recently moved to Boston from NYC. I tried a lot of the top salons in NYC, and they are nothing in comparison to Amaci. I went in to see Amad (the owner of Amaci) for highlights. I was so happy with the color that I wanted a cut (despite it being around closing time). He stayed late to give me a great cut/blow dry/flat iron. I am absolutely amazed with the results, I have never been so happy. I can't stop singing his praises. He is an artist, and a master of his craft. But most importantly, in midst of running a very successful salon, he has not lost sight of what's important. For one, he has a great and genuine energy/vibe to him, and he is a person you will enjoy spending an hour or two with. Secondly, he makes you feel like you are the only client in his salon. His number one priority was making me happy. He does not rush you, and he puts in that extra effort to make sure that you are 100% satisfied and comfortable with your experience at his salon. Also to note...another stylist named Curtis was working while I was there. His clients walked out looking amazing too. Book an appointment at Amad, and I promise you that you will come out looking and feeling like a million bucks. Pros: Excellent service, and great staff Cons: NONE more

Best in Boston! 10/8/2008

Relaxing atmosphere with friendly+professional staff 9/30/2008

After years of zig zagging across town to find the right salon, I have finally found it! Amaci Salon in Park Square is conveniently located and offers a comfortable and friendly atmosphere. The owner, Amad, is an artist and a true professional. I have been going to him for almost three years consistently and have never been happier with my hair. Many people stop me in the street asking where I get my color done - and I'm proud to refer them to Amaci. No prima donnas here - just nice people committed to excellence. Great music, not too loud, nice street side location...just a very relaxing and enjoyable experience. I work at a local hotel and have referred many guests to the salon - they have all come back raving and make appointments to coincide with their next trip to Boston. Check it out...you'll be back... more

not the best. 9/22/2008

This was my first time at this salon. I went at the recommendation of numerous friends who all raved about it. I had a 25% off coupon. At first, things were going well - I really liked Curtis. The salon was very busy and after a while I started to feel really rushed and put on the back burner. I originally went just for highlights, because I am trying to grow out a bad cut from before. I was convinced to get some correction done to my cut. Well, it looks exactly the same. I think I paid $60 to have 4 hairs cut because the salon was too busy for anyone to finish my cut after I was blowdried. I guess I didn't really care up until that point but then I went to pay and the owner Amad snapped at me and claimed I couldn't use the coupon because I was there on a referal. This is not true, I never spoke to Amad at any point during my visit. He then huffed and walked away, leaving me standing there with my credit card for 10 minutes. I finally sat down and just waited until someone came up to the front. My stylist came to ring me up, charged me some amount that I have no idea how he came up with and walked away. My roommate was also there getting her hair done. She got highlights, lowlights, a gloss and a FULL hair cut and was only charged $1 more than me. Obviously I was upset since I didn't want to pay $168 for half a hair cut and highlights. The look on my face must have been obvious because Amad came over and apologized and refunded $25 of my money but I still felt upset. I had high expectations of the salon since my friends all go there. The plus is that I really do love what Curtis did for my color. Later that night, Amad also called my roommate to tell her that he wanted to apologize to me and that I could come back for free in the future to make up for my experience. I'm not sure if I will take him up on that. I would recommend Curtis' talent but I wouldn't recommend the salon itself. I know that Amad apologized, but I still have a sour taste in my mouth. Pros: excellent color Cons: overly busy, bad attitude more

Organized Staff 9/11/2008

I am very impressed with the customer service in this salon. I have been frequenting salons since i was about 13. I recieved a courtesy reminder call regaurding my appointment a day prior. As well while i was waiting for my color to process, a very nice young lady handed me two magazines and a glass of water. I left there with a very psitive impression. I have never been treated so.........nice in a salon i guess. A touch of class. more

Back for a 4th visit 9/11/2008

I am always amazed at how great my color comes out everytime i go see Amad. He is my hero. I get i think about three colors put in and I always get loads of compliments when i leave. The color has never been this wonderful, and it lasts til i come back. It keeps getting better and better, I cant wait to see what your gonna do next Amad... Thanks a bunch !!!!!!!! -Rachel more

BOSTONS BEST BY FAR 9/11/2008

I read all these ads for expensive salons and trendy lil places that come and go all over Boston, but when i heard a handful of girls at my office talking about Amaci I had to go and check it out. I work at Liberty Mutual, which is about a 4 min walk to the salon. I had my appointment set up on my lunch break haircut. The test was if i loved it, and if i made it back on time. Well I did more than both! My hair cut was incredible. A guy named Curtis did this dry cut technique which was perfect. I saw exactly how much was coming off and the finish was so impressive healthy and fast! Bostons Best if i say so more

UNBELIEVABLE EYEBROWS 9/11/2008

I have been shopping around for a great eyebrow shape for a long time. I faught with pricey newbury street salons, all the way to Everett on referral disasters!!!! I saw a young woman on the street and i had to stop her... she told me that the lady used thread on her face and brows. Now I had to go check this out... the young lady did my eyebrows and lip with a single piece of thread UNBELIEVABLE !!!! And they look amazing. No more irritating wax or bumps and swelling im sticking to this salon from now on. more

my hair is still straight 9/11/2008

I am so shocked!! I am still getting compliments on my hair and its been almost a week since it was done. I have the thickest curliest hair ever. Getting it straight is like a two hour process, burning blowdryer, and screaming kids...I was referred to Amaci by a co-worker, who recommended Curtis for ethnic, or curly hair. He was so nice and such a great listener, I thought i was gonna break his poor arm, lol, but my hair is fabulous!!!! If only i could get him to do this every day before work .....lol..... Thanks more

Outstanding service by far 9/11/2008

I am very pleased to refer this salon for anybody who cares about the health and integrity of color treated hair. I had a corrective color with Curtis, very talented young man, and my hair feels and looks healthier than its been in years. I didnt even have to tell him what to do, it was by far the most amazing service I have recieved in a long time!!! Pros: parking no wait time Cons: a lil chilly inside more
