Green Tangerine Spa & Salon

I went in for a pedicure on a gift certificate. I’m glad I didn’t have to pay for it as it wasn’t a pleasant experience. Once the pedicure began, the woman was on her cell phone texting. She barely cut my cuticles and scrubbed my feet. Also, there’s still left over nail polish on my toes. The whole pedicure lasted 40 minutes and I wouldn’t return there again.

I called for a last minute pedicure on Friday afternoon and they had tons of availability on Saturday (that says a lot!!). Girl on the phone asked if I wanted a regular pedicure or spa pedicure. I opted for the more expensive spa pedicure thinking it would be better. Not so much! Was told it was an hour appt. The manicurist took me back about 8 miuntes after my appt. time and finished less than 40 minutes later. She was kind but this was most definitely not worth $ 60. I used a gift card and would have been pretty disappointed if I paid for it. I still have $ left for one more service but honestly I’m not rushing back. Super unimpressed with this place! Sidenote: Went to a local small spa in foxboro for a pedicure about 4 months ago, the girl spent 1 hour and 15 minutes on the pedicure and it cost $ 40. It was a terrific pedicure!

I didn’t have a great experience here. I came in for partial foil– I just wanted some basic blonde highlights (I am brunette). I went to hair school before college, but even if I hadn’t I would have caught these issues…
1. The stylist, whose name I unfortunately can’t remember and she never introduced herself, only put in about 15 foils total. The two side sections only had two each and there were 10 or so on the top. The highlights themselves aren’t horrible, besides being a little chunky and there are a couple of lines from where she didn’t get it close enough to the root.
2. The COLOR of the highlights is what I can’t believe. The stylist didn’t use a toner when she rinsed me out and she definitely should have. In the salon, they looked alright but a little on the warm side. When I got home, I realized how orange they are. I will have to wear my hair in a ponytail tomorrow until I can get to the store, buy some toner, and correct it.
3. When I called to book the appointment, they asked if I wanted a blow dry and I said no. We even talked on the phone about how the stylist would just dry the front to show the color. Well, after she shampooed me, she started to round brush my hair. I didn’t think anything of it until I got to the register– $ 120. On the phone, I was quoted $ 80 – 100 for a partial foil. When I brought up the blow dry at check out, the receptionist asked if the stylist had asked me if I wanted one, which she didn’t. What’s ridiculous is the price of a blow dry– $ 37?! Watch out if you go here and make sure they don’t charge you if you didn’t ask for it!
Overall–
The salon is okay, but my stylist did the bare minimum. Not many foils (I should have mentioned it took her about 10 – 15 minutes to foil it), no toner resulting in unacceptably orange highlights, and I feel that she tried to cheat me out of more money by giving me a blow dry without asking.
Pros: Large variety of hair and skin products, nice environment, friendly front desk, comfy shampoo chairs, and my hair still feels healthy after being highlighted!

This review is for the spa.
Myself and 3 friends went here for a ladies spa day. I was a little hesitant at first since it seems like the Foxboro location is a primarily salon but the spa section in the back was fantastic. You still have all of the benefits of a spa with the comfy robes and changing locations in a quiet soothing atmosphere with the feel of a high end salon in front. After our visit I can confidently say that I’ve had the best massage of my life thus far with Sunny. The cranial sacral massage that she began with before the traditional swedish massage was really amazing. I left feeling relaxed and at peace. She also provided helpful resources and suggestions for my problem areas.
While they only had 1 masseuse and 1 Esthetician staff that day, we all had a very relaxing day.

My pedicure looked great, but the polish came off in one giant piece only a few days later. I prefer the experience ay All About You Salon and Spa.

The place was clean, but pretty noisy since every department is together.
I had my manicure done by the same lady as Caspad… paint all over my cuticles and didnt even bother to push them back, so now they look all grown out only a few days later. I had the gel mani and someone told me afterwards that they don’t look right (it was my first time w the shellac). went for the convenience but now I’ll be going elsewhere — and gettng a better price.

Great service, staff, and product. Nice experience

Cute Place and for being in a super rush today to get my predicure it did the trick but i have to agree with Caspad when she said «Then I got a manicure with some other woman that I thought was the receptionist since she always checked me in the times before and never left the desk. She wears extremely low cut tops, is very well-​endowed and has piercings (that look infected) on her breast bone. It’s not a very professional look.» I got that woman, very nice but not very professional looking. Also i paid $ 40 for a pedi, most places i go to i pay $ 30/​$ 35 for a pedi and that’s usually with a french manicure and they do alot more. Im not cheap, i’ll pay for great service but to me it was just ok and not worth $ 40!

My husband and I were attending a wedding at Gilette Staduim, so we decided to make a weekend of it. I booked a facial, make-​up application and wash & blow dry. When I got to the salon there were 4 people standing at the counter, not one person said hello or greeted me. Finally, one of the girls looked at me and I told her I had an appointment. The girl who did my facial and make-​up application was great. Then I go to have my hair done and this woman was like a tornado. I had a baby about 9 months prior to this day and after my hair fell out in clumps, now this hair was growing back in and the hair dresser was adamant that the hair I am speaking of was from damage and that’s why it fell out. I had no desire to argue with her, she was one of the rudest people that I have ever met. Then she said, «just because you are the mother of three, does not mean you have to look like a mother of three.» She sat there shaking her head and tsk tsking the entire time, it was unbelievable. I left there so annoyed, thank goodness, I have no issues with self esteem. When I got back to the hotel, all my friends were there and they could not believe what I was telling them. Needless to say, I can assure you that none of them will ever frequent this salon and neither will I. This was about three months ago, and there were other comments but I am hoping that this will steer someone away from going there to «relax.» Try Epoche in the hotel, my friends who were lucky enough to get appointments there said it was great…

I’m a big fan of the Green Tangerine in Foxboro. I went for an hour-​long massage and had my hair cut by Karina as well. Everyone who worked at the spa was friendly and very professional. Although the prices are a bit high, it’s definitely worth it! Not only are the services great, but the spa is immaculately decorated too.
Green Tangerine is actually a sister spa of Mizu in Boston. Apparently lots of the stylists go in between the two, which means that you can get the same cut for less (notice I said less, but still not cheap).

I went to Green Tangerine for a pedicure. The experience wasn’t terrible but I expected more and have received much better at other spas.
When I arrived, there were no customers and the staff was all sitting around in the lobby. The beverage service was lacking. I believe most mid to high end spas are doing wine service now for a fee, or at least bottled water. Neither was an option here.
The décor was neither warm nor luxurious. It could have been cleaner, the pedicure room had a lot of open bottles everywhere. The salon chose to use small household fans for nail drying rather than purchase fan/​hardeners dedicated to that purpose.
The pedicure I received was itself good.
But, part of the experience of a salon as the relaxing ambiance and high level customer service, which were both lacking here. There are far better options in the Foxborough area and I will not choose to spend my money here again.

By far — my favorite stylist of my entire 27 years of existence. I love the location (I live in Norwood) and the hours aren’t too shabby either (Sunday hours!). I was given a coupon from a friend as a referral so I got $ 15 off my first haircut but even without it is about $ 50 a cut which I think is very fair. The whole staff is courteous, caring, polite, articulate, and all the fixings for great customer service.
Alysha had a vision, gave her opinion, but still really listened to what you want in a cut. She has been consistently good in the cut each time and actually remembers me. As someone who only gets a haircut every 3 to 4 months that is a definite plus in my book. She is good at her talent, keeps the conversation going, and makes it a pleasant experience. She is coming in on her day off just to do my hair for my wedding. I wouldn’t want anyone else touching it — and I cannot wait for my entire bridal party to get their hair done for the wedding, I’m confident they will all look amazing.
One thing to remember — cash only for tips!

My friend and I had appointments, I had a facial and my friend had a massage and then we had manicure appointments. It was not a great first experience. We got stuck in traffic as there was a Taylor Swift Concert and then our appointment were switched due to a personal conflict by on of the staff members. I though my manicure was way over priced at $ 25 — it was no better than any salon where you pay $ 10 – 12.
My facial was limited as the woman giving me mine was pregnant and she could not do the high frequency. (which I understand) but the weird part was she said my skin really needed it. Anyway. We voiced our opinion and the staff gave us the phone number of the salon manager. I didnt call but my friend did, and then the manager called me and left a message. I was out of town and my friend said she was sending us gift certificates. I honestly didn’t expect for anything to happen. However, I was pleasantly surprised. Most places will say they are sorry. However, the manager went above and beyond and I have to say that that is what makes a good spa! its service! Everyone makes mistakes and things happen but its how you fix the problem.
At first I would have given this a one, however they did the right thing and I am very impressed!!! Kudos to the salon for turning it around!!!

I have gone to the Green Tangerine Salon on several occasions to have a wash and blow dry. I’ve always been pleased and like the fact that they use kerastase products.
A few weeks ago I went to have a demi gloss put on my hair because I had just had a keratine treatment and it lighted my hair a little. The girl put an almost back demi gloss on my hair and I was very unhappy and told her while sitting in the chair. All she could say it that it would fade over time. I was so unhappy and went home and washed my hair several times with head & shoulders and a clarifying shampoo. All this with just getting a keratine treatment a week and ½ earlier. I called the salon and spoke to the manager and told her about the dark color when I just wanted some a few shades darker that would fade out eventually. She said the styist did nothing wrong but I could come in and theyd put some highlights in my hair. I didn’t want this because of just getting the keratine treatment. I will never go to this salon again. I paid aound 75 dollars to get a semi permanant color that I hated. My hair was a light brown and I left with almost black hair. It is a month later and I went somewhere else to get a few highlights but it is still very dark and now very dry from all the harsh shampoo’s.

This salon/​spa looks beautiful on the inside, but I’m afraid it is just a slightly upgraded version of Super Cuts. While they have decorated the place immaculately and they offer more services, the bottom line is, according to the gal that did my color/​cut, that just about all of their stylists came from Lords and Ladies, a completely mediocre chain with cheesy TV commercials. I felt that the stylist’s knowledge was very, very basic and a far cry from the consultation and knowledge that you’d get from a salon on Newbury St.
Additionally, while I was having my hair done, an incredibly annoying masseuse approached me in my chair, touting her «amazing» soft touch masages, that were supposed to chainge my life. She did a demonstration on me that consisted of lightly running her fingers down my arm… um, really? My boyfriend could do that for me. She kept going on and on and on about how she works on famous people, they all love her, she is such a professional. In my opinion, someone doth protest too much… if you are really that good, there is no need to talk about yourself for that long. It was like she was begging me to believe that she was a top-​notch masseuse.
I really didn’t like this place at all. They do carry good products and are generally friendly, but do not confuse it was a high-​quality Newbury St. location.

This place is wonderful and super convenient, if you live in the suburbs. A few months ago, I made an appointment after looking at some random reviews. Miriam was my stylist. I just wanted a basic trim and some layers… what I got was an amazing hair cut that looked fantastic up until my ends started splitting. I’ve never ever had a cut hold up so well. I went back last Saturday and asked for some Liv Tyler esque bangs. Miriam is fantastic. Honestly, she’s the stylist you’ve been searching for. My mom got her cut from Vio, and it’s absolutely the best cut she’s had in years. I don’t think you can go wrong at this salon.

A few weeks after a disastrous hair coloring at the-​salon-​that-​shall-​not-​be-​named (see my other reviews for details), I made an appointment at Green Tangerine. I called during the week for a Saturday appointment and was surprised to get one so easily. Maybe it’s not close enough to Christmas for the big hairdresser rush. I also didn’t know what color service I wanted to get (highlights or all over color) without talking to the hairdresser first, and they had no problem giving me an appointment without knowing exactly what I needed.
I arrived about 15 mins early and was greeted and offered a drink and my coat hung up. It was early in the day so it was pretty quiet in there. Alysha came over a few minutes later even though I was early.
I explained what the last hairdresser had done and how I wanted it to look. Alysha understood completely and knew exactly how to fix it. I also told her I wanted to keep my hair long but take out some of the weight.
I’m not the type to chat at the salon, but we had a good conversation going as she did the foils.
The best part of the salon is the shampooing chairs! You know how painful it is to sit in those chairs with your neck at the wrong angle on the hard edge of the sink? Not at Green Tangerine! The chairs recline and massage, so your neck stays straight during the shampooing and you get a back massage. It was great.
Plus, my hair looks fantastic! The color is much better and the cut is great. It’s going to take a few visits of highlights and lowlights to completely blend out the dye from the last salon (it’s basically a color correction), but I know she’ll do a great job and get my hair color to where it should be.
For barely more than I spent getting my hair ruined, I’m well on the way to getting it fixed. I may sound crazy for driving to Foxboro when there are so many salons in Boston, but I got great service for less money, so it’s worth the drive!
fyi: They take credit cards for services and products but tips are cash-​only.

I ended up at GT after seeing the glowing reviews on here. I’m sorry to report that I’ve experienced better. I will start off by saying that I enjoyed the atmosphere. It being a new salon/​spa, the décor and space is very nice, clean, and trendy.
I am sorry to report that my experience with Marco was not so wonderful. I thought we hit it off well when he asked my thoughts right away on what I wanted to do for the cut, but as the course of the appointment went on, I was losing interest in coming back because of him. I can see that he’s experienced and knows how to cut hair, but he cut my hair the way HE wanted it. He said that at my next appointment (?) he would bring in a picture of what he had in mind as a good cut for me despite my questioning what he thought would look good for TODAY’S cut. He said his first cut for clients is a classic one. But what if that’s not what I want? I told him I flip out my hair and he said today he was drying it straight/​curled in. I told him I like my hair a certain way and he said that he likes when it looks like X (and described why he was cutting it this way). I did not complain to him or management since the cut was fine, but I’ve had this haircut before and it was nothing special for over $ 50. The woman who cut my hair before going to Marco cut my hair the way she wanted and that’s why I left. If I wanted more of that, I would go back to my old salon – it was cheaper!
Sorry to say that I will not be returning. There was a very stylish looking girl there who I wished had cut my hair. An hour and 30 minutes later when I left, I felt cheated in that I spent all this time there and with not much to show for it.
Also, regarding the length of my appointment, Marco was at least ½ hour late with his next client and he told me point blank that she can wait. I actually said to him, what if that were me? Is that how he treats all of his clients?
Thanks, but no thanks, Green Tangerine! I will continue my search elsewhere and get the cut I want, not the stylist’s.

Excellent.
I have been looking for a new hairstylist for the past 2 years. Every salon I try, doesn’t seem enough to keep me coming back. Keldara in dedham was a HUGE $ 75 disappointment.
I wanted to try Green Tangerine after reading the reviews on this website, and I am so happy that I tried it! I had Alysha cut my hair. She was absolutely phenomenal. The haircut is the equivalent to a Newbury Street salon, but for way less money! A haircut at Green Tangerine is $ 53. That is a bargain for the amazing quality that you receive. I will definitely be going back to Alysha.
The interior of the salon is immaculate. The chairs that you sit in while they wash your hair massages you. The floor plan is very open, so you don’t have stylists bumping into each other. They sell Bumble and Bumble products there as well!!! The stylists focus on YOU and not on their coworkers. They talk to YOU and don’t carry on conversation with each other, they also are not working on multiple clients at the same time (which was my Keldara experience…)
Green Tangerine is absolutely amazing!

On a whim I called to see if I could get a same day appointment for a manicure. Success! The staff were courteous and attentive, I received a full tour of the salon and spa since it was my first time there. I had a wonderful manicure and am SO looking forward to my facial there next weekend… more reviews to come as I plan to go back to Green Tangerine!
