Hair Studio Amel owner and master hairstylist Mary-Eriselda Mertiri has 25 years of experience behind the chair making clients of all ages feel confident and beautiful through her endless creativity and top-notch industry training. 

With extensive experience in both Europe and the United States, Mary ultimately opened her own salon in summer of 2017 bringing her dream and vision to life. Hair Studio Amel is inspired by and named for her two daughters, Amalia (the Am) and Eleana (the el). The salon offers a cozy chic vibe in the heart of Dedham Square. 

While the services are always current and on trend -- you will experience a traditional feel during your visits at Hair Studio Amel. Mary and staff cater to clients like family, exuding a special warmth and giving complete customization to your individual hair needs.  You will often find yourself taking a long exhale when settling into the chair to receive your services. It's that kind of place. 

Mary's training is robust and she enjoys staying up-to-date with the most current and innovative trends in the hair styling industry. Her specialties and certifications include: 

• Wella color certified in Europe 

• Goldwell color specialist in US

• JBeverly Hills color specialist in US

• Aqua, Taped in and Weft, Extension Certified 

• Cezanne Keratin specialist 

• Specializes in All Color and Haircuts

As a busy working mother and business owner, Mary understands how easy it is for women to neglect themselves and focus on what they can do for others. But she believes good hair services can be a transformational experience -- both physically and mentally. 

"Women will often neglect the one thing that instantly makes you feel psychologically better- your hair. It's the crown at the top of our bodies. Once you take care of your hair, it's amazing how that can trickle down and we are able to take care of the rest of our bodies."
