JBLUVpro

JBLUVpro is a hair salon inside Planet Color & Spa at 3 Dundee Park Drive in Andover. The salon lists Andover, Boston, Cape Cod, New Hampshire and Maine as its service area. According to the salon, hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and customized services are offered on Mondays and Sundays.

The salon describes itself as award-winning. It says it has won Best of Boston four times and has been named to Salon Today's Top 200 Fastest Growing Salons in America five times over ten years. Its other listed accolades include Best of Northshore, Boston Fashion Awards, and Top 40 Businesses Under 40, and it says its system has received 28 accolades in total. Celebrity clients it lists include Justina Valentine, Dennis Eckersley and Paula Cole.

Much of the work is corrective. Clients can come in for a haircut they are unhappy with, or for color that needs repair after an unprofessional color service, including toning brassiness and lightening. For longer-lasting smoothing, the salon offers Yuko hair straightening, a re-conditioning system it says lasts up to six to twelve months, and Brazilian blowouts, a protein treatment that smooths hair and reduces frizz. Blowouts are designed to last one to three months depending on hair coarseness. Micro-link extensions add length and volume.

The salon also offers presentations, live demos and classes, and it sells hair products and tools. It advises that shampoos containing parabens, sulfates or formaldehyde can shorten the results of a Brazilian treatment.

Corrective work and specialty straightening and blowout services are central here, with education offered through demos and classes alongside client appointments.
