Miss Laura's,

46 South St, Jamaica Plain, MA 02130, United States

"The best haircut I've ever had. Miss Laura is an artist. The staff is excellent and the shop holds a variety of treasures from houseplants to vintage jewelry to home decor. Miss Laura's is a Jamaica Plain gem."

"Emily worked with me to solve my coloring problem and was able to give me exactly the haircut I wanted using a picture and making adjustments for my type of hair. Believe it or not, it was not easy to find a hair stylist who could do that for me. I had been to three other salons in the area that were pricier. The other salons were certainly slicker by apoearance and talked a good story but, in the end, they could not deliver. The atmosphere at Miss Laura's is relaxing. I did not give it five stars because when I had to reschedule an appointment a week ahead of the originally scheduled one, they could not get me in until two weeks after the scheduled one. Also, the a/c was not on in the spring and I definitely needed it. However, it was delightfully cool in there on those hot summer days."

"I saw Briana last weekend to fix up a haircut that I had received months ago and didn't like. I decided to go to Ms. Laura's and see Briana since my coworker had gone the week before and loved the way her hair came out. Briana was very attentive to what I wanted and gave her input as well. Though I couldn't tell right away if I liked the cut because it was styled different from how I usually do it, when I showered and let it air dry the next day, I was super happy with it! She did such a fantastic job and was very sweet. Definitely going back there next time I need a cut!"

"After I gave birth in May I wanted a fresh hair cut. They told me Miss Laura was on vacation but another girl (who I can’t remember her name)can see you. I was happy to look better after delivery. Instead I ended up looking even worst. Layers were so awful that took 3 hair cuts to fix my hair. They were so uneven that they asked me if a 5 year old cut my hair. The stylist was in a music band but that is all I can remember. I called back after my hair cut and asked if I could come back and fix my layers the next day and the lady on the phone told me she will call back after she talks with the owner. Waited a day and called back. Still she was waiting for a response. I never got a phone call and never called them back again. I did have a great experience with the owner so after 8 months I decided to give the place another chance. The lady on the phone said you have only seen Miss Laura a few times and you are not considered as her client. She doesn’t take new clients but we have other great stylists. Who the girl who chopped my hair and make me look like I came out of the psychiatric hospital?"

"It's hard to see into Miss Laura's from the street, so I was pleasantly surprised to find a busy, friendly, buzz of activity inside. I wanted to change up my hairstyle and add some color that my current salon didn't carry, and Miss Laura's was where other friends and students have gone. Everyone was welcoming and collegial, and took time to consult with me about what I wanted and to suggest other options. Socially, the place feels more like a neighborhood (or perhaps a barbershop) than a typical salon. I'm looking forward to my appointment this week!"
