My Alltime Fave

by songstresspg at Citysearch

I've been to salons in Boston, the north shore and the south shore areas and this salon is my fave. I've had my hair done 2 times at this salon and I liked it both times. I would recommend booking an appointment with Hayley or Eric. Both have cut my hair there and both times I walked out of there happy with the way my hair looked and felt. The price was reasonable too.

• Pros: price, salon, people, sanitary
• Cons: parking

Amazing stylists without the newbury snobbery

by p rose at Citysearch

I've been in Boston for a little over 3 years, and prior to going to Will Charles, had yet to find a hair stylist that I liked enough to go back to again. I had tried a handful of Newbury St salons, most of which were undeservedly over-priced. After hearing about Will Charles Salon from Groupon I decided to give it a try, but wasn't expecting much. Patrick cut my hair, and I was asking for a risky hair change that could have ended up disastrous given he had never cut my hair before. WOW, was I pleasantly surprised. He did exactly what I asked for and envisioned, and it was like he had been cutting my hair for years. I now have a super chic, stylish haircut that provokes nearly daily compliments and am more than happy to say that I've been back to Patrick....twice. I would pay more for his haircut and not think twice, but another great benefit is that haircuts are only $55.

Summary: the salon is the best on Newbury and Patrick rocks out uber-chic cuts!

• Pros: great stylists, friendly but stylish atmosphere
• Cons: none

Great hair, great atmosphere

by dm0 at Citysearch

Since Billy and Erik formed Will Charles Salon, the atmosphere at 11 Newbury Street has really turned around. I have been going to this salon for almost four years and the change is dramatic since Nino left. Everyone is so friendly and the place is so inviting. Billy has been doing my color this entire time and I have the most natural blonde highlights. I get a lot of compliments and I always enjoy my experience.

• Pros: Friendly, good value, stylish
• Cons: None

Terrific Hair Cut

by gipsyqueen at Citysearch

I got the best hair cut of my life from Haley at this hair salon on Newbury Street. Just happened to be surfing the net and found this salon. I thought to myself, I should try it and so I did! The best hair cut of my life (and I'm not that young)! Haley was really nice, friendly and personable. She listened to what I wanted, made a few suggestions and went from there. She's excellent. Recommended.

• Pros: Staff, Skill, Value, Hair Salon
• Cons: None

Great Service, Great Price

Superior Establishments Attract Talented People

by BostonGQ at Citysearch

The only reason I went to Runway was to follow a particular hair stylist whom I've been going to for some time now. When she ever told me that she was leaving I simply said, "Where do I go?"

Helen was always a talented stylist and now given the right tools in the right atmosphere she allowed to develop her skills and talents even further.

Without trying to sound to dramitic, the over all treatment and my haircut was simply one of the best.

Runway certainly made an excellent descision by hiring Helen. They've got my business....

• Pros: Helen
