Best Hair Salon in Sharon, MA | Kimberly Messing Hair Design
Ten minutes down the road from Sharon, past the tree line that marks Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary, there's a hair studio that moves at the same unhurried pace as the trails themselves. Kimberly Messing Hair Design sits at 533 Washington Street in Braintree, and for clients coming from Sharon, it's become the kind of appointment that feels less like an errand and more like a reset button.
Serving Sharon, MA | 38+ Years of Specialist Hair Care on Washington Street
A Different Pace for a Quieter Town
Sharon residents know something about restraint. It's a town built around a Mass Audubon sanctuary rather than a strip of retail, and that says something about what people here actually want out of a Saturday: room to breathe, not another line to stand in. Kimberly Messing Hair Design was built by a similar instinct, minus the wildlife. Kim Messing opened her first chair on Washington Street in 1986 with the idea that a hair appointment should never feel rushed, and the salon has held to that for nearly forty years since, through a full build-out into nine specialists covering color, cutting, extensions, alternative hair and toppers, and tinting and waxing.

Meet Kim: Nearly Forty Years of Getting the Conversation Right First
Before a single foil goes in or a single inch comes off, Kim Messing wants to understand who's sitting in her chair. That habit dates back to 1986, when she opened this salon with barely more than a chair and a conviction that most bad haircuts start with a bad conversation, not bad scissors. Four decades later, the conviction hasn't moved, even as the salon around it has grown into a full team of specialists.
Kim is a board-certified color specialist, a distinction that a genuinely small fraction of working colorists ever bother pursuing, since it requires ongoing testing in formulation, correction, and color theory long after most stylists stop chasing continuing education. She's also Hot Heads certified for tape-in extensions, and she keeps current with Goldwell, Redken, Keratin Complex, and Olaplex, treating hair chemistry the way a good mechanic treats engine technology: something that keeps changing, so you'd better keep learning.
What Sharon clients tend to notice first, though, isn't the credentials. It's that nobody here is trying to upsell you into the chair next door before your color has even finished processing. Kim built a team that mirrors her own patience, and it shows in the ordinary details of a visit.
Why Sharon Clients Choose the Drive to Washington Street
A short drive from Sharon lands you at a salon that runs on specialists rather than generalists, and two of them in particular have become the reason a lot of Sharon clients keep making the trip.
Alicia Hayward Solves Curl Problems Most Salons Never Quite Get Right
Alicia is one of the only DevaCurl certified stylists on this stretch of the South Shore, trained directly through DevaCurl's own program rather than picking up curl technique secondhand. For anyone who has spent years hearing "your hair is just hard to work with" from a stylist who was cutting curls wet and calling it a day, Alicia is a genuinely different experience. She cuts dry, curl by curl, and she asks about your actual routine before she picks up a single shear.
Janet Layden Fixes What Other Salons Got Wrong
Janet has built her name on color correction, which is not a service most stylists want to touch. Box-dye disasters, uneven root banding, tone that refuses to lift evenly: these are the appointments that separate a technician from someone who genuinely understands the chemistry underneath. Janet is booked out precisely because she's earned a reputation for taking on the color problems other places would rather hand back to you unsolved.
Nine Specialists Instead of One Overworked Generalist
Beyond Alicia and Janet, this is a team where every chair belongs to someone who picked a lane and stayed in it. Maureen owns foiling and balayage. Laura owns blonding. Jackie owns precision cutting and toppers. You're never handed off to whoever happens to be free.
One Stylist, Your Full Appointment, No Split Attention
There's no double-booking here, no color processing left in the hands of an assistant who's never met you. Whoever is doing your hair is doing only your hair for the length of your visit.
What Actually Happens During Your Free Consultation
Every new client, Sharon residents included, gets a free consultation before any service begins, no strings attached and no pressure to book on the spot. It runs about 20 to 30 minutes, and it is treated as genuine diagnostic work rather than a formality standing between you and the shampoo bowl.
- Hair history. Every chemical process your hair has been through, and roughly when.
- Current condition. A straight read on porosity, elasticity, and overall health, no sugarcoating.
- Daily routine. How often you wash, what you already own, and how much time you realistically spend styling.
- Lifestyle factors. Exercise habits, time outdoors, work environment, sleep patterns.
- Visual reference. Photos of the look you're chasing, and photos of the one you're trying to avoid.
- Realistic outcome. An honest sense of what's achievable today versus what will take a second or third visit.
- Cost and time. A number and a timeframe before anything happens, not a surprise at checkout.
- Maintenance plan. What upkeep actually looks like between now and your next visit.
Clients often say this conversation alone tells them more than years of appointments elsewhere. It's the foundation everything else at this salon is built on top of.
The Full Menu, Priced Honestly
Nothing here is one-size-fits-all. Every service is handled by a specialist, and every price reflects what the work actually involves.
Hair Cut
A cut appointment opens with a real conversation about how you live in your hair day to day, not a rushed once-over before the shears come out.
Barber's Cut — $35. Clean and low-maintenance.
Kid's Cut — $35. Patient, kid-friendly haircuts.
Haircut (Short) — $44. Precise shapes that hold up between visits.

Single Process Color — $75. Rich, even, dimensional color.

Alternative Hair and Toppers
Price Upon Consultation

Hair Extensions
Requires Consultation
Kim personally oversees extension work, matching for length and volume that reads as genuinely yours rather than obviously applied. A full assessment happens before a single strand is installed, and clients travel from well beyond Braintree specifically for this service.

Eyebrow Wax — $20. Shaped to flatter your features.
Brow Tint — $20. Fuller-looking brows without a daily makeup step.

What an Appointment Actually Feels Like Here
The first thing a lot of Sharon clients mention after their first visit is how little it feels like a typical salon trip. There's no scramble at check-in, no stylist glancing at the clock while half-listening to what you're asking for. The waiting area is calm rather than busy, and the consultation genuinely happens before the cape goes on, not while your hair is already wet and it's too late to change course.
That pacing isn't accidental. A salon built around one stylist per client, with no double-booking, simply moves differently than one juggling three heads of hair at once. For anyone coming from a quieter town where a rushed errand feels like the wrong note, that difference tends to land immediately. You notice it in small things: the stylist who actually waits for your answer before reaching for a color swatch, the fact that nobody's trying to talk you into an upsell before your color has finished processing.
By the time you're in the chair, most of the guesswork has already been resolved in the consultation, which means the actual service moves with purpose rather than trial and error. It's a small structural choice that changes the entire feel of the visit.

A Closer Look at the Team Behind Your Hair
It's worth slowing down on who's actually doing this work, because "specialist" gets thrown around loosely in this industry, and here it happens to be accurate.
Kim Messing, Owner and Master Colorist
Kim has spent 38-plus years studying how color behaves on real hair rather than the idealized swatches in a textbook. As one of a small number of board-certified colorists in Massachusetts, she's passed testing most stylists never attempt, covering formulation, theory, and correction at a level that demands continued recertification. She mixes every formula from scratch based on your porosity, your tone, your water, and your lifestyle, which is a meaningfully different process than reaching for a preset recipe off a shelf.
She's also Hot Heads certified for tape-in extensions, work she's refined over thousands of installations, most often for clients managing thinning, postpartum shedding, or age-related density loss. When another salon's color has gone sideways and needs an expert to untangle it, Kim is frequently the person who gets the call. Outside her own chair, she mentors the rest of the team and stays current with Goldwell, Redken, and Keratin Complex.
Jackie Shaughnessy, Senior Stylist and Cutting Specialist
Jackie has cut hair for 38 years, and clients book her months in advance because her cuts grow out cleanly instead of collapsing after a few weeks. Every section gets full, deliberate attention. Her particular specialty is curly hair: she cuts dry, curl by curl, correcting for years of clients who'd only ever been cut wet and left with shapes that never quite settled right once the curl sprang back.
Maureen Lamie, Master Stylist and Foiling Specialist
With 25-plus years building dimensional color, Maureen is the team's foiling and balayage authority, mapping face shape and growth pattern before a single foil goes in. Her hand-painted balayage avoids the harsh demarcation line that comes from rushed application, and she's the one who handles complicated highlight work on hair carrying multiple prior color histories.
Janet Layden, Color Correction Specialist
Janet built her career around the appointments other stylists dread: banding from years of root touch-ups, box-dye gone wrong, tone that simply won't lift the way it should. Color correction demands real technical fluency in lift levels, fillers, toners, and bonding chemistry, and it's the entire reason clients travel to see her specifically. Beyond correction work, her dimensional color is layered and considered rather than flat, the kind of result that reads as effortless precisely because so much thought went into it. She's also the stylist who shows up repeatedly in client reviews for the way she listens before she ever picks up color.
Laura Blaikie, Blonding Specialist
Laura lives in blonding rather than dabbling in it, working in a blend of foil and hand-painting to avoid the brassy or stripey outcomes that come from a generic approach. Clients going noticeably lighter from naturally dark hair seek her out because she knows how to lift responsibly, using Olaplex and K18 throughout every lightening service to protect the hair's underlying bond structure.
Alicia Hayward, DevaCurl Certified Curl Specialist
Alicia trained directly with the DevaCurl team and remains one of the few stylists on the South Shore carrying that certification, which matters more than it might sound: curly, wavy, and coily hair simply behaves differently than straight hair, and most training programs still treat it as an afterthought. Alicia doesn't. She works dry, curl by curl, after a genuine conversation about your pattern, your daily maintenance habits, and what you actually want to wear day to day rather than what looks good for a single photo. Clients who've spent years bouncing between salons that cut against their curl's natural direction tend to describe their first appointment with Alicia as the moment something finally clicked. Her name comes up constantly among South Shore clients precisely because that kind of specialized, listening-first curl work is genuinely hard to find, and once someone locates it, they tend to stop looking elsewhere.
Emma Browning, Contemporary Cuts and Vivid Color
Emma brings the newest technical energy on the floor, working comfortably in textured shags, French bobs, and butterfly layers, always with a structural foundation underneath so the shape actually wears well past the first wash. Her vivid and fashion color work uses Pulp Riot and other professional lines engineered for longevity rather than the fast-fading results most fashion color turns out.
Judy, Senior Stylist and Blowout Specialist
Twenty-five-plus years in, Judy is the team's blowout authority, equally fluent in pin curls, finger waves, and voluminous, event-ready waves. She's frequently booked ahead of weddings and galas, and her cutting is just as sought-after by clients who want a polished, low-maintenance shape suited to a working life.
Kat, Texture and Updo Specialist
Kat handles the styling that goes beyond a curling iron: braids, updos, intricate twists, and ponytails built to hold through a full night of dancing. She's also building a following for color work with brunettes, and clients consistently mention how warm and unhurried the whole experience feels in her chair.

The Products on the Retail Wall
Everything sold here is something the team genuinely uses in the chair, not inventory chosen to fill shelf space.
K18: Peptide Repair Technology
K18 rebuilds the hair shaft's internal structure rather than sitting on top of damage, and it's used in every chemical service in the salon. Clients with lightened or chemically treated hair who add the at-home leave-in mask typically notice a real shift in shine and manageability within a handful of washes.
Goldwell: Color and Care Foundations
A primary color line in the salon, backed by take-home care including Color Revive for fading tone between visits and Dualsenses for everyday maintenance across hair types.
Redken: Performance Styling
All Soft, Color Extend Magnetics, and Acidic Bonding Concentrate anchor the styling retail here, with the bonding shampoo and conditioner in particular reshaping how damaged-hair home care gets recommended.
Keratin Complex: Smoothing Specialists
Supports the salon's smoothing treatments, with a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner recommended to anyone extending the life of a treatment.
Olaplex: Bond Building
Used in-service and sent home as the Number 3 hair perfector, with the Number 4 and 5 shampoo and conditioner maintaining the bond work between visits.
Other Key Brands
Soma, Zenagen for thinning hair, Tri Design for styling, Living Proof for frizz control, Aluram for clean beauty, Design Me for performance styling, Amika for color care, Pureology for color-treated hair, Milk_shake for moisture, Hot Like Me for thermal protection, Revitalash for lash growth, ECRU New York for protective styling, FHI Heat for tools, Wahl for clipper work, and Jon Renau for wigs and toppers.
The Philosophy Underneath It All
Plenty of salons run on volume, tight scheduling, overlapping color processing, one stylist quietly managing three clients at once because the math works out better that way. It's a reasonable business model, but it isn't this one. Here, a stylist works on one client at a time, start to finish, which means no color gets handed off to an assistant who's never met you and no consultation gets cut short because the next appointment already started.
Clients repeatedly point to this as the actual reason they stay: not just the technical skill, but the sense that someone gave their full, undistracted attention to their hair for the length of an appointment. Consultations here are honest rather than accommodating for its own sake. If a request isn't realistic for your hair's current condition, you'll hear that plainly, along with a plan for getting there over time instead of forcing it in one damaging sitting. That's been the operating standard since 1986, long before "honest consultation" became a marketing phrase other salons started borrowing.
Understanding What South Shore Conditions Do to Hair
Hair doesn't exist independently of its environment, and the region's hard water, humidity swings, salt air, and genuine winters all leave a mark on it. Every consultation here treats environmental factors as part of the diagnosis, not an afterthought.
Hard Water Mineral Buildup
Local water carries a real mineral load, and over time calcium, iron, and magnesium deposit onto the hair shaft, showing up as dullness, brassiness in lightened hair, and color that seems to fade faster than it should. Chelating treatments and the right take-home products reverse this fairly directly once it's identified.
Humidity and Frizz Management
Warmer months bring humidity strong enough to disrupt the hair cuticle and introduce frizz even in clients who've never struggled with it before. The fix is a combination of a cut engineered to work with humidity rather than fight it, anti-humidity styling products, and, when needed, a smoothing service.
Salt Air and Coastal Influence
Time spent near the water means salt exposure, which dries hair and can leave color looking flat or slightly gray. A more intensive moisture routine and UV-protective leave-ins go a long way for clients who spend significant time along the coast.
Winter Damage
Cold air, dry indoor heat, and constant hats all take a toll over a New England winter, from breakage caused by friction to static from the dry air. Home care recommendations shift every fall specifically to get ahead of it.
Seasonal Color Strategy
Color reads differently depending on the light around it. A bright blonde that feels harsh under gray winter skies can look completely different in summer light, and plenty of clients adjust their tone twice a year to match the season rather than sticking with one shade year-round.
Sharon's Character, and an Honest Look at the Drive
Sharon is defined in large part by Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary, the Mass Audubon property that gives the town a genuinely different rhythm than its more commercial neighbors. It's the kind of place where people plan a weekend around a trail walk rather than a shopping trip, and that same appreciation for slowing down is exactly what a lot of Sharon clients say they're looking for in a salon experience too.
This salon isn't located in Sharon itself; it's a short drive from town, on Washington Street in Braintree, on the South Shore. What Sharon clients find worth that drive is fairly specific: board-certified color expertise, a genuine curl specialist in Alicia, a color correction expert in Janet, and a pace built around one stylist giving one client full attention, rather than a queue of half-finished conversations. Free parking and evening availability Tuesday through Thursday make the logistics simple enough that the drive itself rarely becomes the sticking point people expect it to be.
Is the Drive From Sharon Worth It?
It's a fair question, and the honest answer depends on what you're actually looking for. If a serviceable cut close to home is enough, there's no shortage of options nearer to Sharon. But clients who've made the trip once for a color correction with Janet, or a first real curl-friendly cut with Alicia, tend to keep making it, because the alternative is going back to guessing. Retention here runs high specifically because the first visit tends to solve a problem that's been unsolved for years elsewhere.
What Sharon Clients Tend to Book
Color correction and curl work lead the requests from Sharon specifically, which tracks with why Janet and Alicia carry so much of this page's attention. Balayage and foiling with Maureen follow closely, along with Kim's extension work for clients dealing with thinning or added length. Cutting rounds it out: classic, polished shapes with Jackie, on-trend cuts with Emma, and event styling with Judy or Kat.
Why Clients Stay for Years, Not Just One Visit
The value of working with one stylist compounds visit over visit in a way that's easy to underestimate. The first appointment sets a baseline. By the third or fourth, your stylist has learned how your hair actually lifts, deposits, and grows, the way you'd learn a close friend's habits rather than a stranger's. That depth simply doesn't develop through one-off visits or hopping between salons chasing the next promotion.
Booking your next appointment before you leave is standard practice here, and for good reason: color clients typically return every 4 to 6 weeks, balayage and highlight clients every 8 to 12, cuts every 6 to 8, and treatments on a quarterly rhythm. Clients who stick with one stylist through that cycle consistently end up with better, more consistent results than those who don't.

Extended FAQ: Deeper Questions
How long does color last?
Single process and root touch-ups generally need a refresh every 4 to 6 weeks. Highlights hold 8 to 12 weeks. Balayage stretches 12 to 16 weeks since the regrowth line is intentionally soft. Vivid and fashion colors fade fastest, typically 4 to 8 weeks.
Will color damage my hair?
Done correctly, no. Single process is the gentlest chemical service. Lightening is more demanding, which is why Olaplex and K18 are used throughout every lightening appointment.
How long does a color appointment take?
Single process runs 90 minutes to 2 hours. Partial foils run 2 to 2.5 hours. Full foils and balayage run 2.5 to 3.5 hours. Color correction can run 4 to 8 hours, sometimes split across visits.
Balayage or highlights, which is right for me?
Highlights are foiled for a brighter, more defined pattern. Balayage is hand-painted for a softer, more lived-in look with easier regrowth. A free consultation is the fastest way to settle which fits your hair and maintenance tolerance.
How do I keep color from fading?
Sulfate-free shampoo, washing less frequently, a cold final rinse, heat protectant before styling tools, a UV-protective leave-in, and a monthly clarifying treatment if your water runs hard.
What does a full color transformation cost?
It depends on your starting color, target color, and hair length, and it's always quoted after a free consultation.
How do I find the right stylist for me?
Start with a free consultation. You'll be matched based on what you actually need, whether that's Janet for correction, Alicia for curl work, or Maureen for foiling.
What if I don't like the result?
Say so before you leave. There's a plan for adjusting almost anything, from tone that's off to a cut that needs reshaping.
Can I bring someone with me?
Yes, plenty of clients book alongside a friend or family member, and overlapping appointments can usually be arranged.
Do you serve clients dealing with medical hair loss?
Yes, Kim handles Jon Renau wig and topper consultations personally, with discretion and private parking available if preferred.
Gift cards?
Available in any amount, online or in-salon, and they never expire.

A Quieter Kind of Hair Appointment Is Closer Than You Think
Sharon clients come to Washington Street for the same reason they gravitate toward Moose Hill on a Sunday morning: because slowing down for something worth doing well isn't wasted time. A DevaCurl specialist who finally understands your pattern, a color correction expert who can undo what went wrong somewhere else, and a stylist who gives you her full attention for the length of your appointment; that combination is the actual case for the drive.
Kim built this salon for people who'd rather wait for the right specialist than settle for the nearest one, and that's exactly who keeps showing up from Sharon, appointment after appointment, year after year.
