Salon Bamboo

I purchased a groupon for this salon in the spring to get my hair cut. I am a very low maintenance beauty person, I don’t go to a specific hair dresser but instead I just buy a groupon for a new place each time. I have relatively straight, moderately thick hair and I don’t do anything too extravagant with it, so it works out for me.
The salon is a little difficult to get to in terms of getting into the parking lot, but once I arrived everyone was very welcoming and friendly.
My stylist Ashton was very young, which I know can be an issue for some people (I am young too and I get it all the time!) but she did a great job. As other reviewers have said, she consulted with some of the other stylists in the salon on certain points, which I liked, because to me that shows that she is putting some thought into what she is doing rather than just going with it. She gave me her feedback and suggestions on what I was asking for and was able to come up with a simple hair cut for me that worked for my face and got rid of all my dead ends.
Overall I am very glad I found this place and bought the groupon for it, and I would definitely return to get my hair cut there again.

I am so happy to have found this Hair salon, I gave it a shot, and now they have a customer for life. I couldn’t believe they fit me in on a very busy Saturday… who does that? Just the crappy mall salons… yuck! Even though they fit me in, Angela still took her time and treated me like I’ve been coming for years. She knows hair. I have long kinky curly hair, and she made it look beautiful and healthy. And the atmosphere is terrific, her sister Anna is awesome too. Every person there getting their hair done, left looking absolutely beautiful and natural. These women know their stuff! Very hospitable too, all this plus the prices are fantastic. C’mon, this is a no brainer, absolutely love this place. Angela is a hairdresser that can walk the walk and talk the talk, no BS here. If I could give 10 stars I would! **********(my 10 stars. lol) thank you Angela!!! Love you too Anna!

A groupon was purchased for this experience. The young lady who did my hair was very tentative in cutting my hair the style and length I asked for. So I did not get what I wanted with the cut. The color was ok. No mistakes… after consulting with all 3 ladies working there (their idea) I got a medium brown shade. It wasn’t a complicated color… no correction needed or anything. It was acceptable.
Here’s the part that was inappropriate… Even though the groupon was for a cut and one process color the owner told me it would cost 20 more for the toner! Seriously? I would love to know how your going to properly offer a color ing. WITHOUT a toner??? It is a necessary element to the color process… unless your fond of Orange hair. That’s the equivalent to charging extra for a freakin towel because you washed hair… It was just crazy. I didn’t argue it because these ppl were about to work on my hair… kinda felt trapped into paying it and being cooperative even though I know how nutty it was.
Look, if you don’t want to offer color service at the groupon rate you’ve got in place then pull it or up the price. Don’t be slimy and add it on to your customer when theyve already paid for a part of the service that SHOULD be included.
That’s called «strong arming». You’ve got them in a vulnerable situation and they feel compelled to appease you and pay it.
The ladies were nice… Offered coffee and water… seemed genuinely concerned with the customers comfort level, I just can’t see doing a color and not toning it… I’ve never heard of that… ever.

I went there yesterday, and I had one of those coupons with me. Having a coupon I didn’t put high expectations… but i was wrong. Melissa did a great-​great job with my highlights! My hair is stunning and they are NOT burned!!!) I love it! She is a great professional and I highly recommend her! Everybody was so nice and friendly, from the receptionist Jenna, to another stylist Angela. Recommend this place to everybody! Thank you very much Melissa!

Came into Salon Bamboo today using a groupon. Asked for layers, but didn’t come out with many… I feel like I came out looking exactly as I did when I went in, except with shorter hair… and the reason being because «my hair was damaged.» Granted it is, and even if they had to chop off some more, i would have taken it just to get some more volume in my hair, which is what I was really looking for. mmmm. Idk… it was more of a trim than a cut, which wasn’t really what i was looking for. Will I be back? Maybe.

Melissa did a beautiful job with my highlights. All staff members were super friendly and knowledgeable. Scheduling and communication were easy but most importantly, I was happy with the end result. I loved my hair. Highly recommended. Two thumbs up!

I meant to submit a review a while back after going in with a Groupon to have my ombré touched up and roots. The woman who was going to do my hair had a family emergency and they unfortunately had to reschedule. Unfortunately I didn’t get their voicemail so I showed up and found out they wouldn’t be able to do my hair that day. Lucky for me, the owner and the awesome staff worked around their schedules to accomodate my appt. They were able to do the whole thing and they did such an amazing job, and faster than nearly anywhere else I’ve been! They truly are such a nice group of woman; very personable and kind. They have great treats, coffee, water etc and are very generous. During my appointment we discussed trying a keratin treatment and needless to say I booked my appt. for the following week. I cannot express how happy I am that I got it done! I opted for the more expensive treatment and it was well worth it!!! They are awesome and I’m getting ready to book another appointment now!

on my cousins Unilocal (I don’t have one)
But I needed to write about this salon. I came in after months of research for a keratin treatment, I have a ton of hair and I just didn’t want to spend all that money if the treatment wasn’t going to last. I ended up coming to Salon Bamboo for the keratin, and OMG the results were amazing. I still cannot believe how awesome this treatment really is. Before the treatment it would normally take me up to an hour and a half to blow dry and straighten my hair, after the treatment it takes less than 20. And I don’t even have to do anything to my hair now if I don’t want to. I can throw some leave in conditioner in it and call it a day, I could never do that before the treatment because my hair was way too frizzy. The treatment is a long process, just about 4 hours, so I even ordered dinner with the stylist. They make you feel like family there. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone. And I will 100% be back.
Thanks girls!!!

I looked around on Unilocal for a hair salon and came across this salon. Called in the early afternoon for a wash and cut and she was able to squeeze me in that evening! I did not feel rushed at all and felt very welcomed and comfortable! Angela did an amazing job with my hair! I had really long hair and went in for a short summer cut. We were able to donate my cut hair to kids with cancer and my new short cut looks amazing! So happy with her skills and knowledge with hair! I will definitely be going back!!!

I just moved to Revere in September and tried Salon Bamboo with a groupon. I have since been back 5 times, all fabulous experiences. Angela has a great eye for hair and makes great suggestions if you are unsure. I love the family atmosphere, they always make me feel right at home. I would recommend this place to anyone

I wanted to like this place before arriving, I really did. I went in for partial highlights and a cut. Partial highlights were extremely partial… meaning I didn’t really see them in my hair and had to have them redone elsewhere. Why? I told the stylist that I pull a lot of red and the highlights came out golden, not blonde. They were also far from my roots. The cut was fine, but it was shorter than what I asked for. I asked for an inch off and showed the stylist a picture of what I wanted. Instead I got 2 inches off and it wasn’t what I showed her. Like I said, I REALLY wanted to like this place because I had hopes it would be a hidden gem and the staff was friendly. I didn’t want to say anything at the salon because I felt it would have been rude to the stylist and other staff. Seeing how the other stylists did their clients hair, maybe it was the luck of my straw. I was hoping for their same experience. I gave them the biggest benefit of the doubt, but instead I went home very unhappy.

Tried to rebook today but horrible hours for a monday. 3−8pm on Route 1? no thank you.

Awesome salon! Welcoming and comfortable. I recently got a color and I am thrilled with the results. I’ve been getting a ton of compliments. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Incredible cut, color, and style. The staff are super sweet, fun, and personable. They take very good care of their customers. This definitely will become my long-​term salon moving forward.

I bought a living social deal for a full-​body spray tan here. I hate to give one star because the woman who sprayed me was so nice, but in all honesty, my spray tan was just awful.
First, you’re basically inside a tent inside the main salon. Weird. The woman asked me how dark I wanted my tan to be, and since I was going to a wedding the next day, I said «just a glow.» Somehow, «just a glow» got translated into turning me into a cast member of the Jersey Shore. I generally have a fair-​natural skin tone, so to come out of the salon with BROWN skin was quite scary. My fiancé had driven me to my appt and I was incredibly embarrassed that he had to see me with the awful tan. We laughed about it later but his reaction was pretty hilarious. I was so brown that my eyes and teeth looked weird and blindingly white. It was awful! I went home and immediately showered. I literally didn’t care if it ruined the whole tan, I just couldn’t go anywhere looking like that. After I showered, I wasn’t brown anymore, but was really worried about what I would look like for the wedding the next day. Luckily, the next day, it was just a hint of a tan, and nothing drastic. My friends had a pretty good laugh about my story.

If you want to have your hair highlighted or colored, go here! I took a risk and came here for the first time last week…2 weeks before my wedding… to have full foil blonde highlights done. I didn’t really know how to explain what I wanted, but Angela nailed it and it looks amazing! My hair is blonder, beautiful, and best of all looks natural.
It’s a very homey place and the sisters make you feel like family as soon as you step in the door. I’ll be back!

I can’t figure out why this place doesn’t have a million glowing reviews. It’s tucked a little back off of route one and def use the gps to get you there. But once you’re there, you’re family. There were yummy treats and a cozy couch.
My stylist was Taylor and I am overly please with me entire experience. So pleased that I am going back for more services next week.
I really enjoyed my time there and my hair looks amazing! You are in good, creative hands at Salon Bamboo!

This is an excellent salon! Angela and Anna are wonderful to deal with and they accommodate you. Angela’s skills as a hairdresser are excellent. The color she does on everyone looks awesome! Doesn’t look like you colored your hair! When she highlights your hair, it looks so natural you would think it was your own color. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone. Angela does a fabulous job and transforms you into looking like a star! Anna now does spray tanning, so c’mon everyone, go get your tan before the season! You will love it! These ladies make you feel like you’re family.

Hey guys! I just wanted to spread the word about this amazing salon. You will never feel more at home than at Salon Bamboo. The stylist Angela is honest and kind. She tries to do her absolute best and really she does an amazing job! Anna is her sister and she is the front desk/​reception (I’m not sure about her exact title) but she is also just wonderful, she calls to confirm twice and really walks you along the process of choosing what to do with your hair. At first I wanted to go completely blonde but Anna suggested that I should probably just do an Ombré and then ease my way into blonde. That was great advice because I love my ombré its fun and cute and much easier to maintain than a full head of blonde dyed hair. Anyway I used a groupon and I did not have to buy it on the website because they honor the deal in the salon if you just show them the coupon. I have already suggested this place to 4 other people after they raved about how cute my hair turned out. I 100% recommend this place it is wonderful! :D

I love this place, it’s like a little family. The prices are great and the atmosphere is wonderful. First appointment is 50% off!!! They always have water, coffee, and plenty of snacks available. My stylist Michelle is THE BEST. I am VERY PICKY about my stylists and VERY CAUTIOUS when it comes to what I allow a stylist to do to my hair. Michelle is highly skilled and I trust her 100%. She has never done one thing that I haven’t liked. Also she’s a sweetheart and I love our conversations. Go see Michelle!
