WELCOME!
We are so happy you are here.
Newfound Hair Company is named after Newfoundland, Canada — where I have family roots, and the setting of The Shipping News, the novel I was named after. It’s always reminded me of a mix between Maine and Alaska, where I grew up — wild, and full of heart.
The space itself was built out by my fiancé, a merchant mariner. He enjoys working with his hands, and you will see those touches throughout our space. Between his profession and my name — Wavey — the nautical touches came naturally. We’ve filled the space with antiques from around New England, added styling stations made from 1830s doors, and softened everything with privacy curtains and framed upholstered acoustic panels to keep things calm and grounding.
We’re a Certified Green Circle Salon and only carry products that meet the EU’s highest cosmetic safety standards — the most rigorous in the world. Every formula is science-backed and extensively tested to support scalp health, regrowth, and long-term hair integrity.
Our stylists each bring their own creative approach to cutting, coloring, and styling — but we’re united by a shared belief: healthy hair comes first. We specialize in all textures, have curl specialists on staff, and we honor how you choose to wear your hair — curly, stretched, straightened, or somewhere in between.
There’s art throughout the space that reflects how we see hairdressing — as something expressive and deeply creative. We’ve also added a little library and espresso bar to make your time with us feel unrushed and restorative. And if you find a book you love while you’re here, it’s yours to keep.
