Jennifer Saved My Color

And she did a beautiful blowdry. She was professional, attentive, and caring. I plan on returning for a new haircut- the styles being done there were absolutely beautiful.

I have a brand new look that I love. The atmosphere was so nice and everyone very helpful. I love the Umi hair products! The best hair cream I've ever used.

Swooning

by looksees at Citysearch

I had what can only be described as a total hair makeover at Umi Salon. What's noteworthy is that I had no expectation of having a total makeover. I've never, ever had a better haircut in my life. They have their own products too - and they are my new fav - UmiFoam - yummy!!!

• Pros: expert advice, products that actually work

It's the best salon I've been to in Boston - there is simply nothing else to say : )

great customer service

I went to Umi for a haircut model call. I had short hair, bob style, and so the only haircut that they could get from that was a pixie cut. Angela gave me the haircut. She was professional, had gentle hands, and did a great job. My friends say I look younger, but need my hair colored (I guess my natural hair color of dark blond is not that stylish). All stylists were personally supervised by the owner and two more senior stylists, and it looked like they were judging the American Idol contest (not cheesy, just very attentive to minute details). Also, at the reception there was Laura, the person who was responsible for model call (email her if interested, preferably with a picture of current look). She was professional, friendly, attentive and had a killer haircut. I have no problems with Umi, and would go there again, but only for model call, as I cannot afford anything over $50. I guess if the haircut was $400, I would not rate the experience that high, but then again the only thing I would buy for that kind of money would be a plasma TV or a trip to Mexico, so what haircut can compare to that?

• Pros: ambience, service
• Cons: price list

Great

Umi is the salon visit in Boston. It's very expensive, but you will leave the salon feeling new and fresh, as I did. The stylists there do very good work and the place has a nice feeling about it.

It's great there...

Umi Salon is unique. You can tell they are serious about what they do, but they don't take themselves too seriously. The salon projects a cool and confident vibe and they deliver with really beautiful looks.

Of all the stylists that have done my hair over the years, nothing will ever compare to the way Jeffrey Dauksevich cut my hair. He is the undoubtedly the best hairstylist I have ever sat with, period. Brilliant, talented beyond words, and so, so nice... I wish him all the best. He is a very special individual with a charm that is completely intoxicating. His salon is wonderfully calm , and he has the most beautiful and personable staff I have ever encountered. Umi Salon is the best of the best.

• Pros: Great attention to detail and design
