her bostons origin story
A tale of two girls….
Picture this: over a decade ago, in a homey little salon in Back Bay, Gina was the trusty assistant, and Sade was a fresh, wide-eyed “baby stylist” finally taking her first steps onto the salon floor. Fast forward through years of chance encounters at salons all over the city, these two kept finding themselves working side by side, sharpening their skills and growing their passion.
Then 2020 hit—the pandemic days, where everything was upside down, and people needed each other more than ever. That’s when Gina and Sade knew it was time to take their partnership to the next level and bring something real to Boston. And so, HER Boston was born: a salon that doesn’t just talk about being texture-inclusive—it lives it, creating a space where every woman, no matter her background or hair type, can feel truly welcome, seen, and safe.
HER Boston isn’t just a salon. It’s a movement. It’s a love letter to Boston’s Women.
