ABOUT YVONNE
Yvonne Bonaccorso has been in the business of beautiful hair since she was nineteen. The former owner of Salon Gaia in Harvard Square mixes her own colors, tweaking traditional formulas to create uniquely flattering shades. With an expert eye for the subtleties of light, she captures tones from the world around her – like the glint of a child’s hair in summer sun – and recreates them in her chair. When cutting Yvonne draws on her deep understanding of shape, movement, and texture to refine trending techniques. Most importantly, she listens and delivers a look that resonates the individuality of each client while accommodating their lifestyle.
“I’ve found mastering hairdressing to be the most rewarding career in the ever-evolving and artistic beauty industry. It’s a pleasure going to work each day, sharing in the lives of my customers and colleagues. I’m excited to leverage what I’ve learned to inspire and guide others in creating their best selves.”
REBECCA FINE, MASTER STYLIST
Working as one of the best hair stylists in the Boston area for nearly a decade, Rebecca finds the most rewarding part of her job is helping her clients to look amazing and feel confident. Rather than simply following trends, Rebecca believes hair should be worn in a way that looks and feels best for each individual. While she loves to experiment with hair color and nontraditional styles, she enjoys doing men’s cuts, long layered hair, cutting and shaping bangs and everything in between, including blow-outs and extensions. Rebecca is both a skilled hairstylist and an artist, taking a creative approach to everything she does. When she’s not in the salon, you’ll find Rebecca working just as artfully on her handmade, comic book themed accessory line. Follow Rebecca on Instagram.
“Rebecca has been cutting my hair for the last 4 years, and I haven't walked out of Evie once and not gotten a compliment. Rebecca is amazing - she listens to what I want and gives me hair that looks great and that I can maintain on my own. I couldn't recommend Evie enough.” — Evie Client
SANDRA FANFAN, MASTER STYLIST
Sandra has been passionate about hair ever since she was a little girl following in her mother’s footsteps. She has been trained by some of the best stylists in the greater Boston area. Now with more then 10 years in this profession it is second nature to her. Sandra prides herself in creating beautiful cuts with bouncy beach waves to current trends in color, kerasilk treatments and everything in between! She has a natural way of bonding with her clients from the second they sit in her chair. She always asks the proper questions to make sure she understands what her client is looking for and gives her professional advice as to what she thinks would work while keeping her clients individuality in mind.
When she isn’t in the salon creating beautiful hair she loves to spend time with her two adorable nephews Harrison and Hart. She also loves going on adventures and traveling with her boyfriend Russ and spending time with her cat Evy.
“I want everyone to feel like the best version of themselves. I know everyone brings in pictures from Pinterest or Instagram, which is great, but it’s always about a version that best suits that individual. I love highlights, balayage, kerasilk treatments and big voluminous hair, that’s my thing! As well as beach waves , ‘lived in’ looks, hair extensions. It’s fun and sexy on everyone!” Follow Sandra on Instagram.
“Alright, this may seem like an exaggeration but Evie Salon and Sandra 100% saved my sanity and self image. I made a terrible decision to get my hair colored (from brown to blonde balayage) internationally... Evie took me in, asked for photos & prepped. Sandra my savior (as I now refer to her) took me into her chair and performed magic. I don’t know how else to describe it. My hair looks amazing. I feel so much better about myself. She taught me so many hair care maintenance things throughout the process, too. I can’t recommend Sandra or Evie Salon more than telling you DON’T GO ANYWHERE ELSE!!!” — Evie Client

For Ryan, hairstyling is more than just a profession; it’s her creative escape.
