Review content:
I've been going to Salon Luna for almost a year now, and I'm so glad I gave it that first try. First of all, everyone--from the receptionist to the stylists to the owner--is SO nice; there is not an ounce of snobbery in this place. It's also so cute, it has a great view of Porter Square and the rooms are painted different bright colors, it makes you feel like you're somewhere warm even in the dead of winter. The first time I went the salon owner, Tony, cut my hair and did a great job, I loved it. He also knew it was my first time there and made such a point of saying that if I'm ever not happy with a cut just to call in and they'd fix it free of charge. He also not only said it was alright, but actually encouraged me to try a few stylists if I wanted, something that I think can be really uncomfortable at a salon because you know you'll see a stylist you switched from and you don't want to be in that situation. Tony said that people do that all the time, and that no one at the salon takes it personally. The next time I went in, I went to Matt (who I've been going to regularly since) just because he was available sooner and I needed to get in quick (which, PS, has never been an issue since, you can always get an appointment within a few days, if not the same day). Tony made it a point to come by and say Hello to me. And Matt is AWESOME. He's super funky and cool and really nice, so easy to talk to, and my cut is always exactly what I want. Because I change my hairstyle slightly pretty much each time, sometimes I ask him for input, and he always gives it confidently and honestly, and it always looks fantastic. The man is good. Oh, and his chair is by the biggest window and has the best view, which is an added perk. I highly, highly recommend Salon Luna, it is a fantasic salon that could easily be super expensive and have egomaniacal stylists, but luckily its atmosphere is the exact opposite of that. And they have brownies and tea. Enough said.
Pros: Incredibly welcoming atmosphere and people, very skilled stylists, affordable, and just plain fun to go to
Cons: Absolutely none
