Moss Salon: Award-Winning Hair, Right in the Heart of Providence

At Moss Salon, we believe beautiful hair should feel effortless—and so should your time in the chair. Located at 114 North Main Street in Providence, between College Hill, Fox Point, and downtown, Moss has been a go-to destination for modern cuts, dimensional color, and lived-in luxury for more than two decades. 
 

A Providence Salon with a National Reputation

Moss Salon has deep roots in Providence’s creative energy. From Brown University and RISD to the financial district and nearby neighborhoods, our guests include students, professionals, artists, and families who all share one thing: they care about their hair.

 

Our stylists and colorists stay on top of advanced cutting and coloring techniques, including:

 

  • Precision haircuts tailored to your face shape and lifestyle
  • Balayage and dimensional color for soft, sun-kissed brightness
  • Custom hair color and highlights, from subtle glosses to bold transformations
  • Keratin treatments to fight our coastal Rhode Island humidity
  • Hair extensions for added length, fullness, or event-ready drama
 
Every appointment begins with a thorough consultation so we can understand your hair history, preferences, maintenance level, and goals. Whether you’re coming from College Hill between classes, walking up from Fox Point, or heading over after work downtown, you’ll always leave with hair that looks current and feels like you.
 

The Moss Experience: Relaxed, Refined, and All About You

From the moment you walk through our doors on North Main Street, our goal is to make you feel at home. Moss is designed to be a calm, welcoming space—somewhere you can disconnect from the rush of Providence life and enjoy a little time to yourself.
 
What sets the Moss experience apart:

  • Personalized consultations
We don’t rush the most important part of your visit. Your stylist or colorist will talk through your hair history, daily routine, and inspiration photos, then create a plan that fits your lifestyle—whether you’re a busy downtown professional, a College Hill academic, or a Fox Point creative.

  • Customized techniques for every hair type
Our team works with all textures—straight, wavy, curly, and coily—and is experienced in creating shapes and colors that enhance your natural pattern instead of fighting it.

  • High-performance products
We recommend professional haircare that protects your color, supports keratin and smoothing treatments, and keeps your style looking fresh between visits—especially important with Providence’s humidity and changing seasons.

  • A comfortable, unpretentious atmosphere
Moss is upscale without being stuffy. You’ll find friendly faces, honest recommendations, and a team that truly listens.
