About

The salon has been operating since August 1980. For 25 years it had locations on Newbury Street and in Wayland, and in 2016 those three salons and spas were combined into a single Waltham location on Main Street.

The business describes its philosophy as balancing health and beauty, and it uses non-toxic, natural and organic products. It is an Aveda Lifestyle salon and spa and sells Aveda retail products alongside its services.

Every visit begins with a complimentary consultation before any service. Clients talk through their history, concerns, lifestyle, how much time they have and what they hope to get from the visit, and then a plan is built together. Color is described as the salon's specialty, with hand-painted balayage highlights on offer. The salon also states that it has won over 10 Best of Boston awards from Boston Magazine, and that it offers the best haircuts and hair color and award-winning updos; these are its own claims.

Beyond hair, the spa offers facials, a range of massage styles, a brow and lash bar, waxing, and manicures and pedicures, including Dazzle Dry vegan polish. Facial and massage series are available: buy five of the same service and receive a sixth free. Gift cards are sold.

Balances health and beauty with non-toxic, natural and organic products, and begins each client relationship with a free consultation before any service, followed by a plan made together.
