OO la la -- Boston's most french salon – Alex Safar, the French owner of Salon Acote, is ahead of the curve -- no, make that ahead of the curl -- to offer his clients chic cuts, color and styling. I've been getting my hair done there for years, and I always exit there looking like I stepped out of the pages of Vogue. I'm always thrilled and never disappointed. Alex is phenomenal with cuts -- that's his specialty, although his color is also fantastic. Her personally does the Keratin treatments on my hair. Before Keratin, I us... read more
Jana is phenomenal! – I've been living in Boston for 7 years now, and after several stylists in the city, I've found my last! I've been seeing Jana now for a couple of years and she continues to surprise me. I have long, straight hair that lacks volume - she knows exactly how to cut it to take weight off and make my fullness more obvious. She teaches me exactly how to use products to add volume. If I bring her a picture of a color I like, I walk out with exactly what I wanted. Jana is always ahead of the wave when it comes t... read more
Great experience with Danielle. – Danielle has not only styled my hair (she does an amazing blow-out) but she also cut a friends hair and did an absolutely terrific job. She brought her from a plain hairstyle, to a sharp, short cut. The dye-job was amazing as well, and looked exactly like the picture my friend brought in. It wasn't an easy change at all, but Danielle did exactly what she wanted. For me she's done blowouts and up-dos and both have been amazing. I definitely recommend coming here - there is a stylist for all y... read more
Mihal Scissorhands – Guys, if you're looking for a stylish cut that isnt your typical "buzz n' fly" barber-style doo, Mihal is your man. I have lived in Boston for 10 years and have worked my way up and down Newbury's salons disappointed by the lack of creativity and inconsistency stylists have when it comes to mens' cuts. Mihal is fantastic. You can usually judge a stylist by how they keep their own hair and Mihal rocks some of the coolest cuts I've seen this side of the pond. On my first visit I asked Mihal to give me a ha... read more
FIXED IT THEN LEFT ME WITH BRASS NIGHTMARE 2ND TIME FOR CHRISTMAS!! This is glassgirl's follow up to the 2nd time they ruined my hair! So i came back after Jana turned my beautiful hair into a brass nightmare and spoke with Alex, son of owner & manager. He spent 4 hrs fixing it and slamming Jana's work. He said with the amount of brass she put in may hair especially my hair line it would take 3 visits and months to repair it. She already bleached it 3xs so it was very brittle. It did take that long&I loved his color after a ... read more
ALEX TURNED MY BLONDE COIF TO ORANGE&GREEN W/NO APOLOGIES! – That's Alex in Photo at Right side. I wrote in 2 weeks ago after my hair devastation, my beautiful blonde healthy locks that were turned bright orange at roots & green everywhere else courtesy of Alex, one of the proprietors of salon Acote. I have since found a fabulous stylist that was able to see me on emergency right before the holidays and stayed until very late focusing on only me to start the repair process of my devastated ruined hair. He looked at my photos... read more
TURNED MY HAIR TO A BRASSY NIGHTMARE! I just got home from Salon Acote in tears. I first entered the salon after reading rave reviews, probably written from the staff because who really takes the time out to go overboard with glee, when I should have read the bad ones. I was 1st Jana's client and has light brown hair. I brought in some pics of Jennifer Aniston's hair and wanted those highlights. Easy enough, light brown, honey and blonde. WRONG! When I came from the sink I had bright all over BRASS HAIR! I looked like a chea... read more

WHAT a JOKE!!! IT'S AS EASY AS THIS...when you first walk in its like being in a club, music is too loud, people are NOT friendly. But I must say that the coffee was AMAZING. There was an older guy who sat at the bar talking to other males about how "woman are bitches" some FRENCH guy, how typical. There is one stylist "blond" she wore a dark grey skirt and literally you could see her butt cheeks hanging out of the bottom, and this is suppose to be a classy salon on Newbury St.? WOW!!! The girl that cut my hair had the worst... read more
