Excellent Experience Every Time by Lisa L. at InsiderPages

I moved to RI from Mpls. and it took me awhile to find a salon that met my high standards. By that, I mean that I expect to get the end result that I want and am paying for. The John Bacon Salon surpassed my expectations. While I'm sure they are all good stylists, I am very happy to be a client of Maryse's. She instinctively knows what I want and what to do with my hair. She also cuts it in a way that makes it easy for me to manage by myself (ever had the 'looks great at the salon but not when you style it yourself at home' cut?). When I went on a vacation to Europe, I had the best 'vacation hair' I'd ever had - great cut & highlights; nothing fussy and time-consuming to work with. She's the ultimate professional and knows her trade. The one time I couldn't get in with her (had an important last minute event to attend), I saw Lea. She was fantastic and did a great job as well. I find their pricing to be very fair, worth the quality and I couldn't be more thrilled that I found them! Communicate with them about what you want and you will be amazed!...

Best Hair Salon in Providence!

by cs345 at Citysearch

I have been going to the John Bacon Salon for 15+years. The entire staff is terrific-at one time or another I have had almost all of the stylists at least blow-dry my hair and I have never been disappointed. John has attracted a wonderful, talented group-they are professional, accommodating and especially up-to-date on the latest techniques and styles. Jen has been my regular sylist for years and she always takes the time to make sure each cut is perfect! I can't say enough!

• Pros: Great sylists, professional atmosphere, super colorists
• Cons: parking can be hard on the street sometimes

Have strangers compliment you.

12-14 years, that is how long I have been going to the John Bacon Salon. Normally people change their stylist every few years, no need to with my stylist. John Bacon stays ahead of the trends keeping my cut stylish and carefree. I certainly wish I had $1.00 for every stranger that has complitmented me on my cut.

• Pros: Atmosphere is chic and always clean - very professional
• Cons: Schedule your appointments ahead

The Best Hair Stylists in NE!

by BNM at Citysearch

The John Bacon Salon is outstanding. I have very thick, curly and challenging hair and John is the only stylist I have met that can consistently give me a great cut. John has been cutting my hair for over 20 years. I moved to Boston 18 years ago and tried several Boston stylists over a 3 year period. No one can cut hair like John so I drive to Providence once a month to see him. Everyone at the salon is courteous and professional. I highly recommend it!

• Pros: Great staff, good location, nice atmosphere, fabulous cuts!
• Cons: On street parking only. Be careful of the meter maids!
