Brazilian Blowout Near Wellesley, MA | Brazilian Blowout Boston
Brazilian Blowout Specialist Serving Wellesley Clients
Wellesley has no shortage of high-end salons. But finding someone who specializes exclusively in Brazilian Blowouts? That's a different story. My name is Franny Flynn, and I run a private salon in Quincy where Brazilian Blowout smoothing treatments are the only thing I do. I've been performing smoothing treatments since 2009, went exclusive with Brazilian Blowouts in 2016, and have completed over 10,000 treatments to date.
The drive from Wellesley to my salon at 147 Beach Street in Quincy takes about 35 to 45 minutes depending on which route you take and when you travel. Several of my regular clients make this trip every 10 to 12 weeks, and they tell me the same thing: once you find someone who truly specializes, you don't go back to generalists.
Why Wellesley Residents Choose Brazilian Blowout Boston
Wellesley clients tend to do their research. They read reviews, compare options, and ask detailed questions before booking. I appreciate that approach because it usually means they land in my chair already understanding the value of specialization. And that's exactly what I offer.
Most salons treat Brazilian Blowouts as one line item on a long menu. Their stylists might perform a handful each month, in between cuts and color and everything else. I perform Brazilian Blowouts every day, all day. That means I've encountered virtually every hair type, texture, and situation imaginable. Virgin hair, color-treated hair, highlighted hair, coarse hair, fine hair, curly hair, wavy hair. Each one responds differently to the treatment, and knowing those differences is what separates a specialist from someone who just follows the product instructions.
Let me be clear about something that trips up a lot of first-timers: a Brazilian Blowout is a smoothing treatment, not a straightening treatment. Your hair will be smoother, shinier, and dramatically easier to manage. But it won't necessarily be straight. The result depends on your natural texture and the customization of the application. I discuss all of this during the consultation so you know exactly what you're getting.
What Makes Us Different
Complete Specialization
I closed my general salon practice years ago to focus entirely on Brazilian Blowouts. It was a significant business decision, but it was the right one. Specialization means better results, period. I don't split my focus. I don't juggle multiple skills. I do one thing at an extremely high level. Read more about the treatment on my Brazilian Blowout page.
Private Salon, Personal Service
My salon is a private, one-client-at-a-time space. There's no front desk, no other stylists, no background noise from a busy floor. You get my complete attention. For Wellesley clients accustomed to a premium salon experience, this feels like exactly the right environment for a treatment that demands precision.
Industry-Leading Ventilation
I've invested in professional ventilation systems designed specifically for chemical treatment salons. When you're doing smoothing treatments daily, air quality isn't optional. It's essential. My salon has the filtration and airflow to keep the environment clean and comfortable throughout your appointment.
Transparent Expectations
I won't tell you a Brazilian Blowout will make your hair bone-straight if that's not realistic for your hair type. I'll show you before and after photos of clients with similar hair to yours and explain exactly what to expect. My clients appreciate this honesty and consistently tell me their results exceeded what I described.
Services & Pricing
Every appointment begins with a consultation. I assess your hair, discuss your goals, and recommend the best approach. Treatment is customized to your hair length, density, and texture. Full pricing and appointment duration details are available on my pricing and appointment length page.
Getting Here from Wellesley
There are a couple of good routes from Wellesley to Quincy. The most direct is to take Route 9 East to I-93 South, then exit toward Quincy Center. Alternatively, you can take Route 16 to I-93. Both routes get you there in 35 to 45 minutes in normal traffic. My salon at 147 Beach Street has on-site parking. If you prefer to avoid highway driving, surface routes through Brookline and Dorchester are also an option, though they take a bit longer.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the smoothing treatments offered at Wellesley salons?
The product may be the same, but the application is everything. A stylist who does 5 Brazilian Blowouts a month versus someone who does them all day, every day for over a decade will produce very different results. The sectioning, the product distribution, the iron temperature, the timing. All of these variables are where experience shows.
Will it work on my naturally curly hair?
Yes, but I want to be upfront about what "work" means. A Brazilian Blowout will not make tightly curly hair straight. It will loosen your curl pattern, reduce frizz significantly, and make your hair much easier to manage. Many curly-haired clients find they can air-dry for the first time without their hair turning into a frizz ball. That's a life-changing result even without full straightening.
How long do results last?
Typically 10 to 12 weeks. Some clients with coarser hair may start noticing frizz returning around week 8, while others with finer hair can stretch it to 14 weeks or more. Using sulfate-free products at home is the most important thing you can do to extend your results.
Is the treatment customizable?
Very much so. I can make it smoother or leave more natural movement, depending on your preference. This is one of the strengths of the Brazilian Blowout system and a major reason I chose to specialize in it.
Do I need to do anything special before my appointment?
Come with clean hair. Skip heavy conditioners, leave-ins, and oils on the day of your appointment. That's really it. I handle everything else.
Can I work out and wash my hair the same day?
Yes. There's zero downtime with a Brazilian Blowout. You can wash, style, tie up, and sweat the same day. Older smoothing systems had 72-hour wait periods. This doesn't.
What's your cancellation policy?
I ask for at least 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule. Since I'm a solo practitioner, a last-minute cancellation means an empty chair for 2 to 3 hours. I appreciate the consideration.
