This hair salon is the best ! I just had my hair cut and styled there. What a fantastic salon. My hair is very, very fine and flat. My hairstylist, Nino was excellent. He added so much volume to my hair. I'm very, very happy. I would recommend booking an appointment to have your hair cut by Nino at this hair salon. Unbeatable talent and service

Pros: ambience, service, location

Cons: parking space

Runway is my new favorite salon in Boston. Eric cut my hair and he is fantastic. He's a total sweetheart and he did a really fantastic job. I love my cut and he really listened and talked to me about how he was going to cut my hair before he cut it. Everyone working there was really helpful and I LOVE that they're open until eight so I can come after work. I will definitely be back again.

Pros: Ambience, Service, Eric

The stylist couldn't have been less interested in cutting my hair. he spent all of 8 minutes doing it and it looked nothing like what I wanted. he didn't even use any product before styling. I'm sorry but the words : " When clients first come to me, I see at them on the outside, but really learn from them, and their styling desires by listening to what they feel on the inside. Their thoughts and insights, and their trust inspires me. And from it comes an understanding that drives my creativity, and pushes me to the leading edge of the art." is a bunch of garbage. I saw no inspriation in his work, and he barely spoke 2 words to me. How can you possibly understand what your client wants if you don't even speak to them??? I'm glad everyone else loves this place and was happy with their service. I got something that looks like it came out of supercuts, and paid top dollar. what a joke.

Pros: none

Cons: attitude

I love my haircut that I got done at Runway Salon. My hair looks and feels 10 x better. It was a fine solution to the horrible mess I had going on. I took my friend's advice and decided to book an appointment. Alot can be said for a great haircut. It's made all the difference to me already. I've received alot of compliments. Quite impressive, so much so that I booked a followup appointment in 6 weeks. Great salon.

Pros: Salon, Expertise, Location, Clean

Cons: Parking

I scheduled an appointment for hair color and highlights at Runway Salon. For years I have been too chicken to color my hair but I decided to bite the bullet and go for it. What a magnificient change to my appearance. I'm so happy with my hair now! Many thanks to Billy and Jamie. They are true pros. Highly Recommend.

What an awesome haircut I got by Nino at this salon. I read the reviews all over City Search and decided to give this hair salon a shot. Fantastic!! My hair is rather short and wavy and I could never find a stylist who could cut it and style it the way I like it. Well now I finally have...thanks to great tools like City Search.

Pros: Salon, Skill, Service

Cons: None
