I like Hair by Christine. I walked in there a few years ago, largely on the strength of the rainbow and trans stickers in the window, and asked for something that would look queer, and have been happy with them since. Like you, I wanted something that doesn't need hair product to look good, and have now had a few different styles that work with that.

In case this matters to you, they were happy to cut my hair while I was wearing a mask (with me holding it to my face when the stylist was working near my ears) a couple of months ago, when Somerville was no longer requiring masking, but aren't requiring customers to be masked.
