on Citysearch Aug 08, 2009I made an appt at Shag after reading the good reviews. I made the trip from Maine, about a 2 hr drive, with my dog, a Jack Russell named Rodeo, on a Sat midday. I was lucky enough to get the appt with Melanie, who I requested.... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 18, 2009I came to Shag with a gift certificate from my boyfriend and I expected them to be somewhat hoity-toity due to their television exposure and such. Not the case, Albana was very kind and friendly and made me feel very... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 22, 2007I can't believe that people have negative things to say about this place... I have been here several times and have had nothing but a positive experience every time! I consider my hair to be hard to manage and since I... (more)

on Citysearch May 12, 2007Amazingly even with the music loud and the energy high I was able to feel perfectly relaxed. From the moment I walk through the door I was greeted from the most lovely ladies. My hair has never looked better. My stylist... (more)

on Citysearch May 10, 2007Rude staff, no parking, poor service, lousy cut-save yourself some money, time and effort and go elsewhere. Even Super Cuts is better than this place. (more)

on Citysearch May 01, 2007Contrary to some other reviews, I have never had anything less than a 100% positive experience at SHAG. You're treated like a total VIP from the moment you walk in the door - they take your coat, immediately offer wine,... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 28, 2007Terrible experience! Rude, over-priced, and BAD cut. Sandy acts as if he is doing you a favor by cutting your hair for 70+ dollars. (more)

on Citysearch Sep 07, 2006I intentionally waited a few months since my Shag hair cut to see how it has stood up. To say the least, it's still pretty awesome. Unfortunately I had to take public transportation to Shag so I ended up taking a taxi... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 01, 2006<b>In Short</b><br>Located in an unglamorous but easily accessible corner of Southie, Shag provides its patrons with a most stylish environment in which to get a trim. (With its high ceilings, hardwood floors and... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 06, 2006The moment I walked into Shag I knew it was my kind of place. The space is great and the staff went out of their way in every way! Definitely a pleasant change from the usual newbury st vibe which is prententious and rather... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 17, 2006I am really disappointed with my cut. I went in there because I thought this would be a creative type place to try something newer and more updated. After I came out NO ONE knew I cut my hair it looked exactly the same. I... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 03, 2006This is a long overdue review...but, my experience at Shag was the best I have had anywhere. The colorist gave me great highlights and Sandy gave me a perfect haircut for my lifestyle. I have had more compliments on my... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 08, 2005I decided to check out Shag after I read about in Improper's A-List. The article speaks pretty highly of Sandy, but I was not disappointed. The space in South Boston is so refreshing (compared to those cramped Newbury... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 08, 2005I was boring ash blonde with even more boring straight bob cut. I needed a serious pick me up for the New England winter. I now have the most amazingly rich red hair with funky layers and flattering bangs! Thank goodness... (more)
