Brookline Hair & Nails sits on Washington Street in Brookline and combines nail care, waxing and hair services in one place. Nails are the main focus. The hair menu covers cuts, which take about an hour and a half and start at $30, shampoo and blow-dry at $45 for about half an hour, color at about an hour for $85, and touch-ups at about an hour for $75.
Nail menu options run from classic manicures and pedicures to dipping powder, gel, shellac, acrylic sets, fills and Gel-X extensions in short and long lengths. A classic manicure at $25 includes soaking, shaping, buffing, cuticle care, a hot towel, a moisturizing massage and polish in a color the client chooses. Classic services use Pure Polish for color, and some manicure and pedicure services use Dazzel Dry Organic lacquer. The salon says it stocks more than 1,500 shades from lacquer brands in gel, dip and non-toxic formulas. Nail art is booked by appointment only, by calling the salon; clients who want a specific nail artist or a detailed design are asked to call ahead or email a photo of the design.
Sanitation is a stated priority. Clippers, pushers, cutters and stones are cleaned in a dry heat autoclave after every use, and any tool that cannot be autoclaved is thrown away after one use. Each pedicure gets a fresh liner and a sanitized tub, and the pedicure tubs have magnetized jets, which the salon says help reduce bacteria. Gel is cured only under LED lamps, and the salon avoids UV lights.
Waxing covers the face, underarms, arms, legs and the Brazilian area, with prices from $13 for lips or chin to $80 for full legs. Booking follows a few house rules: cancellations or changes need at least 24 hours notice, no-shows may affect future bookings, and last-minute bookings within two hours must be made by calling the salon directly. Clients are asked to arrive on time. The salon is open Monday to Friday 10am to 6:30pm, Saturday 10am to 6pm and Sunday 10am to 5pm, and can be reached at (617) 731-9919.
According to the salon, its priorities are cleanliness, client safety and health, which show up in its tool sterilization, single-use disposal and LED-only gel curing.
The salon describes its environment as relaxing.
