Creating My Hair Salon

Salon Tel Aviv

Welcome Back My Lovely People!

Hair salon

I’ve thought a lot about what makes a business successful, and further, what makes a salon successful.

 

Both start as an idea. It hits you one day and eventually grows into a real business concept. 

 

The idea of owning a salon came to me when I was working in a kiosk. I thought about it for years before I decided to actually do it. And it sure didn’t happen overnight. 

 

I spent YEARS working in lots of salons, small salons with a few chairs and HUGE salons with over 40 chairs. 

 

With exposure in all of these different environments I’ve taken in what works and what doesn’t work. I’ve taken pieces from these concepts and used them in my own salon. 

 

For instance, I know that it’s necessary to have a receptionist. A receptionist is a key component in creating ease and comfort for our guests. They keep our operations organized and our system running, again benefitting our guests. So in my opinion, a receptionist is always going to be worth it for my stylists and for my guests. 

 

All of these experiences in salons have also trained my eyes and my decision making process. Every decision we make is in the best interest for each of our guests. Down to the last detail, such as what brush we choose to use for your blow out. Seriously, we individualize our services to such small details for each of our guests. And there’s a reason behind it – I had to learn this the hard way. 

 

I was working at one of the top salons in the nation. And I got fired. You wouldn’t believe why. 

 

I chose the wrong brush to use on the client I was working with. 

 

I promise you, I have never, NEVER, made that mistake again. And that’s why all of these experiences have taught me something as a stylist. I’ve taken all of these learning experiences and incorporated them into my salon.

 

 

When I first started my salon, we only had one chair and it was only me. I was waiting by the door for people to come in. 


Eventually, I found my chair filling up with new faces- and those faces are now close friends that I still cherish as clients to this day. 

 

Now our salon has 5 chairs and we have a team of stylists and staff that work hard to help meet our guests’ needs. I’m so happy to see my vision come to life over the past few years, and I’m grateful for my staff and clients who have added to this vision. 

 

But that’s the thing with ideas- they grow over time. 

 

Although I love the progress that we’ve made, I still see a lot of opportunity for our salon to grow. 

 

I want to break away from the traditional idea of a salon- where it needs to be quiet and restorative. If you have your baby on your lap and your dog at your feet, you’re still welcome here among friends. 

 

You may already know that my salon is almost NEVER quiet. Sometimes we have Charlie on the ground doing construction projects, while Aritsi is cutting hair above. 

 

But that’s the thing- I always want to be available for my people. I never want to shut my doors, throughout our growth. 

 

Big picture- I see a salon open 24/7 for our friends, to pamper themselves whenever they need it. That’s where I see our salon going. 

 

Join us on this wild ride! We’re so excited to have our friends here for the show. The show is free, we only charge for the hair. 

 

Talk soon my lovely people! Don’t drink and drive- smoke and fly. 

 

XX,

top hair trends right now
August 1, 2025
As stylists at Salon Tel-Aviv, we see firsthand what hair trends are actually taking off across Massachusetts. While social media might show you what's trending globally, we want to share what's really popular right here in Sharon, Easton, Walpole, Norwood, Canton, Dedham, Stoughton, and Foxboro. These are the cuts, colors, and styles our clients from across the South Shore are requesting most often right now. What's Hot in Hair Color This Season Creamy Blonde Transformations We're seeing a huge demand for what we call "creamy blonde" – a softer, more natural-looking blonde that's warmer and more dimensional than the stark platinum looks of previous years. Our clients love this look because it's sophisticated but not high-maintenance. At our hair salon, we achieve this using careful lightening techniques and toning that creates depth and richness. The result is blonde hair that looks naturally sun-kissed rather than heavily processed. Toffee and Caramel Highlights Rich, warm highlights in toffee and caramel tones are extremely popular with our Massachusetts clients right now. These colors complement the natural undertones in most people's hair and work beautifully with both brunette and blonde bases. We're using these warm tones in balayage applications to create natural-looking dimension that grows out beautifully. It's perfect for busy professionals throughout the South Shore who want gorgeous hair without constant touch-ups. Natural Brunette Enhancement Many of our clients are embracing their natural brunette color but enhancing it with subtle lowlights and glosses. This trend is about making your natural color the best version of itself rather than fighting against it. Our stylists excel at analyzing your natural hair color and adding strategic depth and shine that makes your brunette hair look richer and more polished. The Cuts Everyone's Asking For Soft, Face-Framing Layers The most requested cut at our hair salon right now is soft layers that frame the face. Unlike the chunky layers of the past, these cuts are subtle and designed to enhance your natural features. We customize these layers based on your individual face shape and hair texture. Whether you're coming from Easton, Walpole, Norwood, or any of the surrounding communities, our stylists take the time to create cuts that work specifically for your lifestyle and maintenance preferences. The Modern Bob Evolution Bob haircuts are having a major moment, but not the blunt bobs of the past. We're creating textured, lived-in bobs that have movement and personality. These cuts work beautifully for clients who want something chic but not too structured. The key to a great modern bob is the cutting technique. Our stylists use point-cutting and texturizing methods that create natural movement and prevent that "helmet" look that traditional bobs can sometimes have. Long Layers with Movement For clients who prefer longer hair, we're seeing huge demand for long layers that add movement without sacrificing length. This cut is perfect for adding body to fine hair or reducing bulk in thick hair. These cuts are incredibly versatile – they look great air-dried for a natural look or styled smooth for a more polished appearance. Texture and Styling Trends Effortless, Natural Waves The over-styled, perfectly curled look is giving way to more natural, effortless waves. This trend celebrates your hair's natural texture while enhancing it with expert cutting and minimal styling. Our organic keratin treatments are perfect for achieving this look. By smoothing the hair cuticle without eliminating natural texture, we can help you achieve waves that look beautifully undone while still being manageable. Dimensional Color with Natural Highlights Instead of uniform color, we're creating dimensional looks that mimic how hair naturally lightens in the sun. This technique involves placing highlights strategically to enhance your hair's natural movement and texture. Glossy, Healthy-Looking Hair Above all, the biggest trend we're seeing is the desire for hair that looks genuinely healthy. Clients are prioritizing shine, strength, and overall hair health over dramatic changes. This is where our formaldehyde-free treatments really shine. We can give you gorgeous, glossy results while actually improving your hair's condition. Why Professional Application Matters While it's tempting to try trending cuts and colors at home, achieving these looks requires professional expertise. Each trend needs to be adapted to your individual hair type, face shape, and lifestyle. At Salon Tel-Aviv, our stylists don't just follow trends blindly – we interpret them in ways that work for each client. Our 20+ years of experience means we understand how to modify popular cuts and colors to flatter your unique features. Trend-Forward Treatments for Healthy Hair Organic Hair Treatments One of the biggest trends we're seeing is the move toward healthier hair practices. Clients are increasingly seeking hair salons that prioritize hair health alongside aesthetic results. Our formaldehyde-free keratin treatments represent this trend perfectly. You get the smooth, manageable results you want without exposing your hair and scalp to harmful chemicals. Customized Hair Care The one-size-fits-all approach to hair care is officially outdated. The biggest trend is personalized treatments that address your specific hair concerns and goals. When you visit our hair salon, we don't just look at what's trending – we look at what your hair needs to be healthy, strong, and beautiful. Color Correction: Fixing Trend Experiments Not every trend experiment goes as planned. One of the services we're seeing increased demand for is color correction, especially from clients who tried to achieve trending colors at home or at less experienced salons. Our color correction expertise allows us to fix previous color mishaps while incorporating current trends. Whether you're dealing with brassy blonde, uneven color, or damaged hair from previous treatments, we can help restore your hair while updating your look. Seasonal Considerations for South Shore Massachusetts Living in Massachusetts means dealing with seasonal changes that affect how your hair looks and behaves. Our stylists factor in local climate considerations when recommending cuts and colors for clients from Sharon, Canton, Dedham, Stoughton, and beyond. The humidity we experience in summer affects certain cuts and styles, while the dry indoor heating of winter requires different hair care approaches. We help clients choose trends that work well year-round in our New England climate. Making Trends Work for Your Lifestyle The best hair trends are the ones that fit seamlessly into your daily routine. During your consultation at our hair salon, we discuss not just what looks good, but what you can realistically maintain. If you love the look of textured waves but only have five minutes to style your hair in the morning, we'll cut and treat your hair in a way that makes achieving that look quick and easy.
