Cut & Style

Precision cuts, blowouts, styling, and in-salon hair treatments. Tap to explore.

NiCOLO SALONMelrose, Massachusetts
Cut & StyleSalon Services
Haircuts
Haircut & Style

A personalized consultation, precision haircut, and signature blowout finish — styled and ready for whatever's next.

Barber Cut

A quick clipper cut on a three-week rhythm — no sectioning or blow-dry needed. Perfect for anyone keeping it short and sharp.

Youth Cut

For our youngest guests, with the same consultation and care we give every adult. Priced by the hair, not the age — youth cuts transition to a full haircut around age 10, or sooner for kids with a grown-up head of hair.

Bang Trim

A quick refresh between haircuts to keep your fringe exactly where you want it.

Blowouts & Styling
Signature Blowout

Shampoo, condition, and a polished blowout — smooth, bouncy, or beachy. Your call.

Signature Blowout with Color

The finishing touch for your color or highlight visit. Time for a blowout is reserved with every color service, and it's priced separately from your color. Prefer to air-dry? Just tell us when you book so we can release the time.

Additional Styling

Extra-long, extra-thick, or extra-glam. Added in 15-minute increments when your hair — or your look — calls for more time: flat-iron finishes, curls, or a truly abundant head of hair.

Special Occasion Styling

Updos, formal styles, and event-ready hair for the moments that matter. Booked by consultation.

Good to KnowEvery haircut includes a signature blowout, and we reserve that time just for you — the price of your haircut stays the same if you choose to skip the finish. Because every head of hair is different, an additional styling charge may apply when extra shampoo, drying, or styling time is needed, so your stylist can give your hair the time it deserves.
Hair Treatments

Add any treatment to your cut, blowout, or color visit — your stylist will recommend the right one for your hair today.

Fusio Dose $42

A made-to-measure Kérastase treatment, custom-mixed at the bowl for exactly what your hair needs — instant, visible results in minutes.

Acidic Bonding Treatment $30

Rebuild weakened bonds and reinforce color-treated or damaged hair with concentrated acidic care for noticeably stronger strands.

Metal Detox Treatment $30

The insurance policy for beautiful color: neutralizes the metal buildup from your water that causes breakage and unpredictable color results.

Pureology Top Coat $18

A shine-sealing top coat that smooths the surface of your hair for instant gloss and a silkier feel — vegan and color-safe.

Kérastase Première Treatment $75

The ultimate restorative ritual. A two-step decalcifying and repairing treatment that reverses stiffness and breakage — for hair that's stronger, softer, and brilliantly shiny. Enjoyed in our private Scalp Spa.

Facials & Skin Treatments

Customized facials and skin treatments with Guinot — natural and glowy.

NiCOLO SALONMelrose, Massachusetts
Facials & Skin TreatmentsSkin & Spa Services

Every visit begins with a proper consultation. Your esthetician assesses your skin that day and builds a plan around the results you want — so we reserve ample time for each treatment, keeping your facial fully tailored and never rushed.

Signature Facials
The Teen Facial
From 45 min · $95–$140

A facial made for teenagers — and taken just as seriously as any adult's. We set aside the relaxation-massage steps and focus on what young skin actually needs: deep cleansing, targeted treatment, and careful extraction, drawing on techniques from across our facial and advanced-treatment menus to address breakouts and congestion.

Just as important is what comes after. We treat every teen with the same care and respect we give every guest, and we take the time to guide them through caring for their skin at home — building the habits and the confidence that help young people feel happy and comfortable in their own skin.

Customized to each teen — your esthetician will tailor the treatment and recommend an at-home regimen.

$95–$140 · from 45 minutes.

Hydra Clean
45 min · Deep cleanse & hydration

A 30-minute deep-cleansing facial that leaves the skin thoroughly clean, hydrated, and radiant.

BenefitsDeep cleansing · Deep hydration · Increased radiance

Thermoclean Electrode

A patented, adjustable heated electrode — a gentle alternative to steam — that helps the cleansing gels penetrate deep into the skin.

Deep-Cleansing Gels

Soap-free Universal (all skin types) and Purifying gels that cleanse with antimicrobial and hydrating benefits.

Hydra Peeling
1 hr · Exfoliating resurfacing peel

An exfoliating, resurfacing facial that renews the skin in about 45 minutes. Two versions are offered: Hydra PH uses phytic acid for all skin types, while Hydrabrasion uses natural cellulose particles and papaya extract for a gentler option on sensitive skin.

Both finish with a skin-regenerating cream and massage phase and a soothing, beauty-enhancing mask. Skin looks brighter and feels cleaner and fresher — with softened brown spots, refined texture, more radiance, and deep moisture. Your esthetician selects the best version for your skin goal and level of sensitivity.

Hydraderm Vital Energy
1 hr 15 min · Energizing, skin-type tailored

An exclusive, 50-minute patented treatment that transmits energy into the skin for quick, effective, visible results — using serums targeted to your skin type, plus oxygenation by thermal effect.

Step 1 · Exfoliator

Cellulose microparticles, jojoba seeds, and bamboo gently exfoliate and prep the skin, restoring a radiant glow.

Step 2 · Concentrate

A high concentration of hyaluronic acid fills and plumps wrinkles while boosting hydration with lasting results.

Intensely restores moisture with hyaluronic acid and the Hydralogic Complex, smoothing lines and draining toxins for radiance.

Step 4 · Moisture-Seal Mask

Hyaluronic acid, Hydralogic Complex, and Acticalm immerse even dehydrated skin, restoring the barrier and easing tightness and discomfort.

Step 1 · Enzymatic & Mechanical Exfoliation

Papaya extract and cellulose remove dead skin, impurities, and pollutants for a smooth, refined texture.

Step 2 · Detoxifying Green Clay Mask

A peel-off mask that acts like a magnet to lift toxins and impurities from the skin.

Step 3 · Reoxygenating Massage

A manual technique that stimulates circulation: Actinergie oxygenates and boosts renewal, ATP delivers nutrients for radiance, Purisoft shields against pollutants, and Dermaline moisturizes and smooths for an anti-aging effect.

Purifying Anti-Imperfection
1 hr 15 min · Rebalance, purify & clear

A deep-purifying facial that rebalances the skin, minimizes imperfections, and eliminates excess shine — for a clearer, more even, visibly healthier complexion.

Step 1 · Heating Exfoliator (5 min)

A warming enzyme gel opens the pores and lifts away dead surface cells.

Step 2 · Purifying Mask (15 min)

A deep-cleansing clay mask absorbs excess oil and draws impurities from the surface to rebalance the skin — followed by blackhead extraction (10 min).

Anti-Aging & Lifting

1 hr 15 min · Firming lift — face, neck & chest

A firming, lifting treatment for the delicate skin of the face, neck, and chest — the first areas to show aging. Fast-acting, it redefines the facial contour and restores radiance in 50 minutes, with instant and long-term results.

BenefitsExfoliates & removes dead cells · Improves elasticity · Fills & erases wrinkles · Smooths & lifts features

Step 1 · Double Exfoliation

Papaya extract loosens dead cells while cellulose microparticles exfoliate mechanically; fruit acids accelerate cell renewal.

Step 2 · Massage

A massage with mahogany bark extract improves elasticity, while alaria esculenta seaweed helps prevent the appearance of wrinkles.

Step 3 · Filler / Eraser

Hyaluronic-acid spherical fillers settle into wrinkle grooves, then rehydrate and inflate to fill them from within.

Step 4 · Firming Mask

A Dynalift and biotechnological complex form a lifting mask that smooths features and counters slackening.

Age Summum

Step 3 · Massage

A 10-step massage across the décolleté, neck, face, and hands firms, tones, and enhances radiance.

Body
Back Facial
From $150 · 1 hr · Guinot facial

A full facial for the skin you can't reach. Using Guinot products, we cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and deeply nourish the back — addressing the breakouts, congestion, and rough texture so common on this often-overlooked area. You leave with skin that feels clean, smooth, and beautifully cared for.

One of our most popular treatments, and easily tailored to your skin. Because the back is a large surface area, pricing reflects the added product and time — starting at $150.

Want to go further? Add microdermabrasion to your back facial for an even deeper resurfacing.

From $150 · 1 hour · performed with Guinot products.

Advanced Skin Treatments
Microneedling
$275 · 45 min · Advanced

One of our most advanced skin treatments — a collagen-induction therapy performed with an automated micro-needling pen. Fine, spring-loaded needles create thousands of microscopic channels in the skin, awakening its natural repair response while dramatically boosting the absorption of targeted serums.

Skin Rejuvenation

Softens fine lines and wrinkles and refines the look of enlarged pores.

Texture Improvement

Smooths the appearance of acne scars and stretch marks.

Enhanced Absorption

Drives active ingredients — hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and peptides — deep into the skin.

What to Expect

A facial numbing cream is applied first for your comfort. The pen's automated tip then glides and stamps rapidly across the area to keep any discomfort to a minimum. Most guests see mild redness and minor flaking for one to two days, with a fresh, healthy glow within about a week — and because collagen keeps building, your skin continues to firm and even in tone over the following four to eight weeks.

Please NotePerformed strictly within the legal depth limit. A signed waiver is required prior to your appointment.

$275 · 45 minutes · numbing cream included.

Microdermabrasion Facial
$150 · 60 min · Guinot facial

A complete facial built around microdermabrasion. This isn't a quick exfoliation — it's a full, relaxing 60-minute treatment. We cleanse, gently resurface the skin with microdermabrasion to buff away dull, dead surface cells, and carry you through the nourishing steps of a Guinot facial, so you leave smoother, brighter, and glowing.

Smooths & Refines

Buffs away dead surface skin to soften fine lines, refine the look of pores, and even out texture.

Brightens

Reveals fresh, luminous skin and a healthy, lit-from-within glow.

Deeper Nourishment

With the surface renewed, Guinot's active ingredients absorb more effectively for longer-lasting results.

What to Expect

A relaxing hour with little to no downtime. Skin may look lightly flushed right after and will feel exceptionally soft and smooth — perfect before an event, or as monthly skin maintenance.

$150 · 60 minutes · performed with Guinot products.

Dermaplaning Facial
$160 · 1 hr · Guinot facial

A complete facial built around dermaplaning. More than a quick sweep of peach fuzz, this is a full, relaxing hour: we cleanse, gently dermaplane the skin with a sterile blade to lift away dead surface cells and fine vellus hair, then carry you through the nourishing steps of a Guinot facial — leaving your skin remarkably smooth, bright, and radiant.

Instantly Smooth & Bright

Removes dead skin and fine “peach fuzz” for an immediately soft, luminous, makeup-flawless finish.

Softens Fine Lines & Texture

Reveals fresher skin and refines the look of fine lines and uneven texture.

Deeper Nourishment

With the surface cleared, Guinot's active ingredients absorb more effectively for longer-lasting results.

What to Expect

A relaxing hour with virtually no downtime. Skin looks polished and radiant right away and makeup glides on beautifully — a favorite before an event, or as monthly maintenance. Your esthetician will confirm dermaplaning is the right fit for your skin.

$160 · 1 hour · performed with Guinot products.

Peels
Linder Health Peels
30 min · $153 · +$70 Bonus Round Booster

Linder Health peels are a next-generation take on the classic chemical peel. Their proprietary, non-inflammatory acid blends work with your skin, not against it — reviving healthy cell function, softening visible signs of aging, and supporting a balanced microbiome and a stronger barrier. The result is real, regenerative change and that unmistakable post-peel glow.

Repairs Visible Damage

Suitable for all skin types and concerns — fine lines and wrinkles, acne, discoloration, and a compromised barrier.

Improves Skin Health

Helps your skin's mitochondria generate the energy to produce collagen and elastin by clearing away damaged cells.

No Downtime

Non-inflammatory formulas mean no interruption to your day — reapply makeup, hit the gym, and get right back to it.

The Immersive Head Spa Ritual Experience
90 min · $250

Step into the most immersive head spa treatment in Melrose — a ritual designed, from beginning to end, to transport you. Your journey opens in your own private waiting area and continues into our intimate consultation suite, where we capture detailed before & after imagery with our K-Scan scalp camera and thoughtfully map a course of care uniquely suited to the health of your scalp.

We begin with a pre-treatment oil and a soothing scalp massage. From there, you are welcomed into our dedicated treatment room, where we exfoliate gently and guide you into a revitalizing Scalp Bath with Halo Rinse — a sensation that can only be described as pure bliss. Your ritual continues with our signature Black Mask, elevated with Vitality Pearls infused with Vitamin E & Hyaluronic Acid, a restorative scalp massage, and optional steam therapy.

Throughout your treatment, our immersive sound experience carries you far from the everyday — one moment you are deep within a quiet rainforest, the next inside the gentle power of a thunder & lightning storm. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and let the rain roll in.

To close your ritual, you return to the consultation suite, where we capture your after imagery and softly remove excess moisture from your hair so you never leave wet. Your scalp is finished with its prescribed Scalp Serum, and you are sent on your way with the personalized products selected to support your ongoing hair & scalp health.

An experience that takes you out of this world and into your own — a private Head Spa Sanctuary, thoughtfully crafted for you.

The Première Hair Restoration Ritual
45 min · $75

Is your hair showing the signs of color, heat, or hard-water damage? The Première Hair Restoration Ritual is a transformative, multi-step treatment designed to reverse visible damage from the inside out — not with a single product, but through an advanced layering protocol that rebuilds your hair at every level.

Your ritual begins with a sensory welcome — warm towels, aromatherapy, and the calming atmosphere of your private treatment room. We then apply Kérastase's Concentré Décalcifiant Ultra-Réparateur section by section, gently dissolving the calcium buildup trapped within each strand — the hidden cause behind dull, brittle, and lifeless hair. A decalcifying shampoo is layered directly on top and massaged through with an extended scalp massage to encourage circulation and deep relaxation.

Next, we resurface the hair's outer layer with a liquid concentrate massaged through every section, followed by a rich repair masque twisted gently strand by strand. During this phase, steam therapy or a heated towel wrap enhances penetration of the active ingredients while you relax — an optional beverage may be offered between layering steps.

Your ritual finishes with a nourishing sérum and gloss for immediate shine and protection. You leave with visibly stronger, softer, healthier hair — and the prescribed products to continue the restoration at home.

This is not a simple conditioning treatment — it is a complete hair transformation.

A Salon for All

From your first haircut to your last.

We're a salon for every age. Little guests are always welcome — first haircuts, trims, and styling — and for the health of young hair and scalps, color and lightening services begin at age 13. At the other end, our seasoned designers are masters of classic techniques many salons no longer offer: perms, wash-and-sets, and roller sets, done beautifully.

The Details

Precision is a habit, not a happy accident.

From our shears to our shelves, every tool and product is chosen with intention — because the difference is in the details.

Hospitality

You're not a client here. You're our guest.

Hospitality is in our DNA. From the moment you arrive, you're looked after — a freshly pulled espresso or cappuccino, an iced coffee or iced tea on a warm afternoon, a glass of wine in a beautiful long-stem glass, even a sambuca alongside your espresso. There's an assortment of snacks and drinks for every age, too — apple juice and chocolate milk for the kids, a Diet Coke for the grown-ups. The little touches aren't extra. They're the whole point.
