I love this place — a cute but no-nonsense hair salon in Uptown Athol. I’ve come here for a color/cut/style about six times in the past year. I really enjoy coming here. its so relaxing… Kim doesn’t mind when I take a nap right in the chair :) Having spent some time living in larger cities, from San Francisco to New York, I was used to a certain standard and«hipness» level for hair salons… so after I moved to the North Quabbin I was a bit reluctant to try Laurel’s — but I have been nothing but impressed with the quality and price. I always look forward to my appointments with Kim — she is talented, sweet, and accommodating.
