Impulse Hair Salon

DJ gave me an excellent facial, both in terms of the cleaning and the relaxation aspect. She rocked it!

Went in and saw Jonela. She did a great job with my very long, very curly hair — no small feat! A great find in Dot.

Alex did a great job on my cut and highlights. The color is absolutely beautiful. I came to the salon with a Groupon, but plan on making this my regular salon. I’m thrilled to have this salon in my neighborhood!

I saw a hairdresser let one of her male customers leave with a poorly done fade. I can’t judge them based on anything else quite yet but. Good thing I don’t need a fade haha.

Went in for a haircut with Jonela. She is amazing and gave me exactly what I wanted– my hair looks great! Overall a really great place I’ll definitely go back.

All the services here are wonderful! I have had my hair cut and also done the customized spray tan a few times. It’s a small place (maybe 6 – 8 chairs) but that doesnt mean a long waiting time. The spray tan comes out perfect too.

Anne Marie the owner cut my hair and she did horrible job. She definitely didn’t know how to cut hair. I told her I was going to a wedding thinking she would do a great job but sadly it was so bad that I had to go back to my own hair dresser to fix it. My whole hair was so uneven. Front hair was longer then the back and right side hair was longer then left hair. It was just so bad that I literally cried my eyes out when I got home.

Anne Marie is the owner and my stylist — she is amazing at what she does — expert colorist! My hair always looks great after I see Ann Marie and never once did I not like what she does to my hair. All the woman that work there are highly trained in their field and continue their education while working getting certifciations etc. It is a fantastic hair salon!
I highly recommend Impulse Hair Salon!

Nice atmosphere. I was nervous about getting a spray tan because I’m so pale but Annemarie was amazing.
Janella also does amazing eye brow waxing. I’m very picky, I like to keep them thick. She does a great job every time.

I love this salon I live right next door so convenient and nice environment and Annemarie did a good job with my hair!
Xoxo,

I’ve been to Impulse for two spray tans and they were both great. Natural looking and not streaky. It also lasts for days. AnnMarie makes you feel really comfortable too. I will definitely be back!

Most amazing spray tans ever! Ann Marie is really talented when it comes to airbrush tanning. Initially you walk out of there looking super dark but once you shower (at least 6 – 8 hours later) the tan is gorgeous and so natural looking. I discovered Impulse through a 3-​session Groupon but I will definitely be returning for additional spray tans and I’m excited to try their salon services. It’s an adorable little shop and every time I was there the clients’ hair looked fantastic!

GREAT PLACE FOR MENS HAIRCUT: For the past 8 months I have been getting my haircut every two weeks by Eddie and I have been extremely pleased. The atmosphere is very comfortable and the price is right ($ 15) for guys who likes to have their haircut on a very regular basis.

A hidden gem in Dorchester! Went in for a cut and color, came out with a wonderful (& reasonably priced) new ‘do. Definitely worth checking out for any and all hair needs.

I unfortunately did not have a good experience at Glistening Glow. I bought the Groupon for three spray tan sessions. Just as a disclaimer — I have fair skin. I do not use a tanning bed but have done mystic spray tan in the past (with good results).
Parking is easy (right out front, no meter) and Ann Marie was very nice.
The spray tan room is small but comfortable. The actual spray tan takes no more than 10 minutes and then you blow dry yourself for 10 minutes.
The first time I went I was very excited. However, after returning home I realized my neck was not done evenly and ii had «spots». I had washed my hands, but apparently water had dripped down my arm and it was VERY obvious. I also realized that because I am fair skinned, I looked INCREDIBLE dark (almost scarily so) and now had white spots on my arms and spottiness on my neck. Needless to say I ended up taking a shower.
I decided to try again (this time I would do better on my part) and blew dry myself for 20 minutes (double the time). While I wasn’t spotty this time, my chest looked «dirty» (not tan) and apparently my leg hadn’t dried enough because it looked like I had a line. Needless to say I showered it off again.
This might be a great option for people who are already dark and have hours to «dry» after, but unfortunately I will not be using my third session and will not be returning.

Impulse is a very lovely new salon in the Dorchester area. The staff were very nice. I went there to get a brazilian wax after seeing an add on groupon, It was a one day deal & I couldnt make it that day but I called & they said they would still honor it. The Brazilian wax went well. The salon was extremely clean which was impressive, I will be returning!

Ann Marie does the BEST spray tan. She is so detailed and takes her time to make sure it looks perfect. She really cares about how her customers look and is always willing to go the extra mile for them. Sweet lady with a true talent!

Very clean and friendly. They offer a variety of different services all reasonably priced. Will definetly be going back

Had my eyebrows done there last night and it was great! Very nice and welcoming she also took her time to make sure they were perfect.
Prices are reasonable and I will definatly be back for more services!

I walked in I thought it was very warm and inviting. I got a spray tan from Ann Marie and I LOVED it !!! I didn’t turn out orange (that was my fear since I’ve never had one) She does it with a spray machine by hand so I’m not standing in a booth wondering if there will be streaks. My tan was beautiful, even, and natural.
The cut and color I got from Alex was perfect! And I’m very picky since I have curly hair. I am very happy.
The neighborhood is nice and I will Definitely be back soon :-)
