Paula

Review:
After going to the same stylist for years and only finding myself loving my hair when it was straight, I decided to embrace my curls and to try to find a stylist who could do the same. After work one night, I called Liquid and found that Paula happened to have an opening. I arrived in her chair with an embarrassingly dried-out, long, frizzy, thick mass of curls on top and partially grown-out Coppola on the bottom. What a mess! Paula was patient, listened to my challenges and hopes, and began to cut. Paula was the first person who didn't comb my hair straight as she cut, but she "let the curls be" and cut my curls from where they fell naturally; brilliant idea! For the first time ever, I left the salon not feeling like the next day would be a guessing game as to how short my hair would be and what the shape of it would look like. Paula also introduced me to the DevaCurl line of products,which I adore,and let me try the products. Paula is talented, she's a good listener, and she's not afraid to embrace curls! My hair looks polished, liberated, and better than ever. Thank you, Paula!

Derek

Review:
Just adding another vote for Derek. I walked into Liquid feeling like my style needed a change, but was unable to articulate exactly what I wanted. I wanted to keep the overall long length, updated with a more "deliberate" style, but told him that I was unwilling to put in lots of styling time each morning. Derek seriously worked magic on my hair. It looks like a new set of curls; more body, more texture, and more consistently pretty than any cut I've ever had. I haven't had a bad hair day since the cut (seriously!). Derek had lots of ideas for my hair, but didn't push me to accept any of them and patiently talked me through my options. I've received lots of compliments on my hair and am so glad to have found Derek!

I have also been very happy with Derek. He's kind, laid-back, listens and proceeds cautiously -- with your input. He won't cut your hair dry, but he understands how wavy/curly hair behaves, and he knows what he's doing. I can't believe how reasonably priced he is. And don't be scared away by the "edgy salon" comments -- I'm a middle aged lady from the 'burbs, and I love the atmosphere in this place. They couldn't be nicer. (As long as tattoos don't freak you out, you will be just FINE).

I have to agree, and say that this is the best haircut and color I have ever gotten! Derek is so wonderful, he listens, knows how to cut curly hair to give shape without taking inches off (we all know how you can ask for a 'trim' and wind up bald!!). The color he did is also fantastic! I would definitely recommend him!!

Finally, a Curly Girl cut within city limits! I stopped a few people on the street and half of them recommended Derek, so I bit the bullet and tried him. Derek is awesome. He has thick curly hair himself. He knows the Curly Girl deal and won't look weirdly at you for conditioner-washing. And he listens. In short, this is the best $100 haircut I've ever gotten for $40. It's funky, easy to manage, long with lots of layers, and totally ME. I love it! Like other reviewers said, Liquid is an edgy salon, so be prepared for hipness, but everyone was so darn nice and laid back I wasn't at all intimidated. Go Liquid!

Wendy

Review:
I went to Liquid Hair Studios because of many good recommendations from friends. I was tired of stylists telling me that there was nothing that I could do with my curly/wavy hair besides a straightforward cut of varying length. I wanted a cut that was shorter and funkier. I saw Wendy, who I am told is an experienced stylist, and she was excellent. We talked about my need for a cooler cut, and she recommended a stylish and attractive design that ended looking fantastic and super fun. Liquid is edgy and definitely not your average salon, so conservative people need not apply. But if you have curly hair and want a cool do, then I definitely recommend Wendy.

Review:
Liquid Studio is located in the South End, on tremont Street. The salon is fun and funky, complete with brighty-colored walls and a disco ball. EVERYone there is nice -- stylists, revdeptionist, everyone. When I first started going, my 3B/3C hair was a long frizzy mess. My first stylist was the first person I have EVER visited to give me a well-shaped, flattering and FUN haircut -- above my shoulders! I always knew I could have cute hair, and he totally brought it out! Andrew is currently my hair stylist, and I can't say enough good things about him. He is friendly, he is talented, and he even started a friendster-type website for hairstylists nationwide! He knows how to give my hair volume and life without leaving it poofy and unruly. The best part is that he only charges $35 ... $20 cheaper than anything you'd find on Newbury! GO SEE ANDREW!!
