Twilight Hair Salon

These guys are all super nice. I see Alexis for cuts and brazillian blow outs and she always does a very nice cut and my hair looks great afterwards. She has good tips for helping me achieve my hair goals as well (middle eastern frizzball hair’s survival guide to the north eastern climate). Also they have really great snacks available for munching ;)

I went in to get my hair dyed grey/​silver. The bleaching process went really well and seemed to damage my hair minimally. The toner didn’t work very well and a couple days later I wasn’t satisfied with it so I called and they scheduled me in right away to fix it free of charge. Now it looks amazing! I’m obsessed, it’s a super cool smokey dark silver. The salon is adorable and has all kinds of snacks and coffee. Everyone is super friendly and it’s a fun, chatty environment. I’d totally recommend it!

I have never encountered a friendlier staff or more welcoming salon environment. I was a little worried about damaging my hair with color due to negative past experiences at other salons, but my hair feels softer and healthier since my time in Alexis’ chair. Alexis is a skilled stylist who’s super easy to talk to, and I am over the moon with the results of my visit. I will definitely be going back to see her from now on, and I’ll be recommending Twilight Hair to everyone I know.

I love everything about getting my hair cut at Twilight. All of the staff is friendly and helpful — scheduling appointments is never difficult, they offer you water or coffee, and there’s a small waiting area with snacks and magazines if you do need to wait.
Kim has been cutting my hair for over a year now, and she’s great. First, she’s a great stylist — she always listens carefully to what I want and makes sure we’re on the same page before she does anything, and I’m always pleased with the results. She’s also very personable and chats with you as she cuts your hair (this is the only salon I’ve ever been to where I enjoy conversation with the stylist).
The prices are also pretty reasonable, considering it’s a nice salon in a densely populated area. If you get a wash and cut without drying/​styling, your cost will be in the $ 30 – 40 range, so I usually opt for that unless I’m going somewhere afterward.
All in all, I highly recommend Twilight for anyone who wants a good haircut in a pleasant environment.

Kim is my stylist and she is great. She has been helping me go from brown to white-​blonde hair. It has taken a few sessions because my hair had been colored brown, and she has been very careful about not frying it. They use olaplex, and my hair is so healthy considering how much we have bleached it. The prices are very fair compared to other Boston hair salons.
Also the rest of the ladies who work there are silly, and the shop is a welcoming and relaxed environment.

So far so good. I moved to Boston and needed a new salon and came across Twilight thanks to Unilocal.I’ve been going to Kim since July and so far I don’t have any complaints. Great hours that work around anyone’s schedule.

My experience at Twilight convinced me to sign up on Unilocal to write this review!
I’ve been going to Twilight on and off for the past few years. I love the vibe there (it’s got a fantastic edgy flair to it– it somehow maintains its professionalism while playing Star Wars music in the background), and the stylists are fun and a little quirky (in the best of ways). The only thing that’s made it difficult for me to go consistently is the price, but that’s because I view a really nice hair cut as a bit of a splurge. Honestly, their prices are really very good for the work they do!
This time, I came in with long, brown hair looking for something markedly different. I was very nervous over the phone with receptionist, and I think the silliest question I asked was «I see there are stylists and master stylists on the website… should I go with a master stylist for this kind of cut?» Now, this question is silly because they are ALL master stylists there. They’re all incredibly professional and good at what they do. I’m not a salon expert, but I can say this with confidence because I got cuts from three different stylists from Twilight over the years and I never left unhappy.
The stylist that worked on my hair this time was Alexis. She is very chill, and put me at ease immediately. I wanted to get my hair cut short into a bob, and I wanted to dye it a dark purple, both of which are things I had never really done before. I geeked out on reference pictures; the cut I was looking for was very similar to Cortana’s from Halo, so that’s who I showed her. She didn’t judge, and she understood exactly what I wanted. The cut went smoothly from there, and I got it colored the next day. She helped me with the color choice, and it turned out perfectly. I wanted something that was different but didn’t stand out too much at my office, and she got it right, and I absolutely love it. Thanks Alexis!
PS. Years ago when I first looked at Twilight online, their website was a bit offputting. They’ve since updated it and it is so well designed! Kudos to whoever was behind that.

I moved to Boston from Western MA over the summer. I had been going to the same stylist since high school in my hometown, and I was nervous about finding a good stylist at a good price in the Boston area. A friend recommended Twilight, and I absolutely love it! I’ve seen Kim twice now, and I am very impressed with her skill, knowledge, and her personality! It’s really fun to come in for a haircut after a long day at work and joke around with her. I’d definitely recommend her to guys looking for a good cut.

Twilight Hair salon was amazing! I went there the other day to get my hair cut really short and I had super long hair so a big change and they did amazing ! Kim cut my hair and she did an amazing job! everything exactly how I wanted it. I showed her a picture of a short layered cut with some side bangs I found online and liked, she then talked me through it asking and showing how she would cut it and if everything she was panning on doing was okay before she did it, She made me feel supper comfortable cutting off all my hair ! I was also offered snacks and drinks through out the whole experience witch was super nice and the salon has a really happy atmosphere. Everyone is so friendly there even though I was nervous steeping through the door i instantly felt welcomed and comfortable ! just an overall great place I don’t think I’ve ever been as happy with my hair as I was after this hair cut ! Also so reasonably priced for a cut and a wash it was only $ 48 which isn’t bad at all!
definitely will continue going here to maintain my new short cut!

Sarah is like a hair whisperer. I discovered her when I asked a gal friend who cut her hair — it looked great. And voila I’ve been with Twilight for over 2 years, more to come!

Sarah is great! She works so well with her clients. She really can figure out what’s the best for your hair! The place is quirky and very friendly! Great job.

This was my go-​to salon when I lived in Brookline. I moved to the other side of Boston this past fall and tried to find another salon I liked as much. Nope, couldn’t do it. I still happily make the trek to Twilight when I need a haircut.
Firstly, the salon is so laid-​back and charming. I walk in and feel so at home. There’s a «salounge» in the back with tea, snacks, magazines, and comfy chairs!
Secondly, the salon is SHOCKINGLY inexpensive. $ 38 for a wash/​cut/​dry? A good one?! In Brookline!!! Yes, yes, and yes.
I have also never been so fond of my stylist before. Kim is so, so wonderful! She knows my hair extremely well, is very creative, and is so fun to talk to during appointments. I brought in a Pinterest photo of a hairstyle I wanted — she didn’t bat an eyelash and pulled it off! Another stylist at a more expensive salon told me «there’s no way» and «we can try something similar». Untrue, clearly…
Everyone has different hair, and salons are a tricky thing. But having stylists who will listen to what you want and are willing to figure out what does/doesn’t work with you is key!

I love this place! The vibe, the atmosphere, the stylists. It’s so welcoming and fun. It has a great energy. The stylists are friendly, talented, and knowledgeable!

Rachel the salon owner did contact me today to apologize for the haircut and to offer a refund including tip. If I were to visit this salon again I would request to see her for a haircut. Sometimes it’s worth seeing the owner of the salon.

Rachel is an expert at her craft. She was recommended 4 years ago and I haven’t been anywhere else since. Twilight gets the highest rating in my book!

This is my favorite salon ever — been going there for about 3 years. I recently moved to the West Coast but will definitely be making trips back to Boston to visit with my buddy Sarah. She is the best!!! I love Twilight!

I have had 3 brazilian blow outs from here (and one somewhere else) and each has been great. Sara does a great job at it and is very friendly.
I had her cut my hair last time and it was pretty good for a first time cut. I am making an appointment for my 4^th BBO and will also be trying another hair cut. Overall, I like coming here and working with Sara.

I’m in love! Honestly haha I love my new do from Lisa! She is the sweetest person ever and she knew exactly what I wanted. I hadn’t got a haircut in months and my mane was a mess. She tamed it! It’s amazing what a simple wash, cut and blow dry can do! Kudos!
On another note, the ‘salounge’ was so quaint; filled with magazines, coffee/​tea, snacks and an eclectic amount of retro/​hipster collectibles. The place is small, but it makes you feel at home and doesn’t have that serious salon atmosphere. I felt so comfortable with Lisa and she guided me through my transformation! What I also really loved was the fact that it’s open later and it’s literaly a 3 min walk from Fenway!
Other salons need to take note! :)

I got a Brazilian blowout here, and the woman who did it was amazing! She spent so much time on my hair and was so friendly the whole time, even though it took HOURS and it was so late. Wonderful vibe at this place. Recommend for all.

Sorry, not a fan! Even though I wanted a wash and cut, the stylist declined to wash my hair before the cut and lectured me on washing my hair way too much (i.e. every day??). The cut came out frizzy, awkward, and crooked, which always happens when it isn’t washed first. When I went to another place in Boston a month later, the newstylist said she would have to «spend a lot of time» to even out my old cut.
Two stars because the prices are affordable, the people seemed alright, and the haircut wasn’t completely psychologically devastating.
