What a waist of money!! I love spending money for a job well done and a relaxing setting. That is exactly what I didn't get. The colorist, Billy, who did my color, fried my highlights and yelled at his assistant the whole time. I couldn't stand listening to him treat someone with such disrespect. I couldn't relax.

I just noticed all of the really bad reviews for Runway. I've been going there for a few months now and only seeing one stylist Kerri Romano. Kerri is great! Not stuck up or snobbish at all, very down to earth and honestly the sweetest thing. Kerri has never given me a bad cut or color, she always listens to what I want and offers very flattering suggestions. My first time at Runway Nino cut my... more

What A Disappontment!!!!

brought to you by

Citysearch

I just got my haircut at Runway, and all I can say is that my hair is over 2 inches longer on the right side than the left. These people are supposed to be great hairdressers, according to all the great reviews- well, I think these people are crazy, because I wear the simplest hair style known to man... a one-length cut! I look like a moron! Thanks a lot, Runway!!!

Pros

Isn't It A Pity!

brought to you by

What a pity it is that I have absolutely nothing positive to say about the new hair coloring I just spent over 200 dollars on. Now I have to spend more green to get it back to where it was before I started my adventure down the "Runway". My advice? Stay away from these style wanna-bees and find a more experienced salon.

There was nothing great, "European", or fabulous about my experience. There was very little activity there, and all the hair stylist did was badmouth other people. My haircut was nothing more than a copy of my previous haircut, and I am still looking for another hairstylist.

Billy and Erik have transformed the old Runway Salon into an exciting new endeavor: Will Charles Salon! The talent is still top-notch and now the environment is more positive and friendly than ever. I had the keratin treatment done with Billy and my hair feels better than it ever has!!

Pros

+ great staff!

Eric at Runway Salon gave me a really nice blowdry. I needed my hair done for a family party so I made a last minute appointment and lucked out and saw Eric. He's really, really good.

I literally got the best haircut at Runway Salon. My hair's the best it's ever been. My stylist was very professional and attentive and had finesse. It was an absolute pleasure having my hair done there and well worth my trip into Boston.
