Salon History

Fresh Hair began in 1982 when Joy Silverstein and Marie Doucette left Newbury Street to be in their own neighborhood and do the work they loved in an atmosphere they, and you, can enjoy. The two-chair salon quickly became four chairs. Then in 1986 the little grocery on the corner had a fire and went out of business. Fresh Hair grew into that space, adding more styling areas, a retail area, a cosmetics counter, a facial room, a real reception desk and an office. Luci Mansfield was Salon Coordinator for many years and put together the Gift Center in 1996. In 1998, Marie moved home to Florida, and Joy became sole owner. The building façade was renovated in 1999.  For everyone’s comfort and aesthetic enjoyment the interior expanded in 2004 to make room for Spray Tanning, a separate hair-drying area, a second bathroom and a center-access shampoo sink.  In 2005 a pedicure chaise was added. With this web site the salon continues to reach into the new millennium.
