Editorial Review for Oasis Salon, Ltd. – by Ellen Roberts

The Scene
Elevator doors open to a second floor apartment-style living room where a hip, friendly staff awaits. A narrow hallway leads to a small, intimate rear room of five stylists' chairs in which loyal female patrons of varying ages chat during cuts and color. Most of the time the room is quiet enough to hear only scissors snipping. Glossy wood floors and simple, ivory-colored walls reflect light pouring through giant windows. The room glows with homey cheer.

The Services
Although offering quality facials (including the Gentleman's Facial), nail care and hair removal, cutting and coloring (foils only) hair are their specialty at Oasis. Bedroom-like treatment rooms are tiny but comfortable. Stylists are laid back yet professional, listen carefully and are meticulous. Owner Neil Gannon enjoys one of the greatest honors as a stylist: Designing hair and make-up for Miss Massachusetts USA. Prices are reasonable.

The Details
Facials, hair removal, manicure/pedicure, full-service salon, make-up application, weddings

This is a great salon and Toby is the best stylist around. I have been a customer of this salon for over 3 years, and I have never had a bad hair cut. If you are looking for a reliable and talented stylist Toby is your man, I wouldn't trust anyone else to style/cut/color my hair.

Pros: Great value, talented staff
