Best Hair Salons In Champaign

“Grace did an amazing job on my Apothecary treatment. It was such a relaxing experience and I’ll definitely be back again! The business environment itself is also so beautiful and clean!“

“Just had my hair done by Ella Luna at Rod Sickler Salon and I’m in love. I came in looking like a patchy banana with 3 different shades of “what even is this color,” and walked out looking like a real girl ??
She’s young, but don’t let that fool you .. she’s better than people with 20+ years in the game. Not even kidding. I’ve had stylists in LA and Miami and I promise Luna did a better job.. For the first time in 10 years, someone actually matched my inspo pic. I didn’t even have to squint and pretend. And LAYERS??? not many people can do layers anymore. And the best part? I had my two little kids, one who wanted to grab all of her stuff and scream the whole time and she didn’t make me feel stressed about it! Actually the whole staff made me feel welcome and offered snacks to my kids as well! She doesn’t rush you, checks in a million times to make sure you love it, and somehow manages to stay calm and chill the whole time.

10/10 recommend. And now I’m stuck here cause I’m never letting anyone touch my hair but her ?“

“Ok. There really IS a magic formula for hair!! Start with Michael Steen’s expert care and guidance in hair products. He strongly recommended Redken’s Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo and Conditioner plus Leave-in Conditioner. It COMPLETELY transformed my hair, starting with the first shampoo! My long hair is softer, less brittle, holds a style longer and I’m able to last longer between shampoos. I’ve used it one month now and it’s made the biggest difference I’ve ever seen. It’s worth every penny and you’ll thank me for writing this long review!!“

“I was so satisfied with my services because I got exactly what I asked for and paid for. She’s helped me keep my hair healthy each hairstyle!! Highly recommend ?“

“I got my hair highlighted and trimmed. My stylist, Carol did an amazing job she was gentle and made sure I was comfortable. I am very happy about my experience and I will for sure go again!“

“If you ever find yourself on national television Ray will have you looking great, guaranteed.“

“Joy is awesome! She is very sweet, and extremely talented. Her salon is beautiful and inviting. Myself and my children will be customers for life! Thank you, Joy!! ???“

“Caryn gave me a wonderful haircut today. She is so professional yet still easy to chat with. Guess that’s why I have come to Cost Cutters for 26 years!

Stylist: Karyn did a wonderful job cutting & styling my hair, it’s very fine & still a little curly but the gray hair makes it frizzy. She was able to get it all tamed down very nicely!“

“Maddy does me very good. She is a very nice girl, and I love the wax treatment she gives me to take care of the hairs in my ears that have been causing my ears to itch.“

“Paige was the make-up artist for my wedding. Before my trial, I had never had anyone else do my makeup, so I was nervous. I had no reason to be; she was so easy to talk to, and a lot of fun! One of my bridesmaids had also never had her makeup professionally done, and she was also instantly put at ease. Paige did great, and everything stayed despite sweating like crazy on the dance floor!“

“Jamie was very informative and helpful with getting my teenagers curly hair healthier and looking so much better! She is easy to talk to and ask questions without feeling like you're offending someone. Accident overcharge was immediately corrected by another stylist. Unfortunately, I did not catch her name. Everyone is always so happy, helpful and polite here. They are the reason we come back!“

“Recently used Hansen and Co for my beauty services for my wedding and cannot recommend them enough! Kirsten did all the makeup for myself & bridesmaids and Allyson did all the hair. They were so friendly and made the morning of run so smoothly. Everyone’s hair and makeup looked absolutely amazing!“

“Went to have my 2 year old son's hair cut. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. The stylist was a pro, she bobbed and weaved along with my son turning his head and gave him a great haircut! We will definitely be going back.“

“I’ve always had a good experience here, the owner is very sweet and good at what she does! I got highlights a couple of times and both turned out amazing“

“Great haircuts and a great person. Plenty of nice conversations over the years and came away happy every time. Very thankful for Madlayn.“

“Brittany is very talented, thorough, and kind. She explains her process and takes her time to do an amazing job. Highly recommend!“

“My son gets hair cut here the barber is James and he is more than a professional I rated 10 star he listen and understand what your describing kudos to G.A.S“

“Rachel did an amazing job with my hair, listened to what I wanted and gave great suggestions. My hair looks the best it has in over 5 years.

The waxing artist was also great, she encouraged me to wait another week instead of just waxing anyway even knowing it wouldn't have been ideal.

Highly recommend!“

“Tori is an amazing hairdresser and I trust her hands! I hadn’t seen her in a year, but she quickly picked up my thoughts and executed a classy cute cut! Julie is a very kind receptionist and is great at keeping up with guests and staff. She’s a doll to converse with as well. The hairdressers are funky and fun and the salon is full of laughs. The salon is also highly ethical in their products and the owner has done a beautiful job at integrating design and life into the space.“

“Loni is the best! She goes above and beyond to explain the process. I love that she does makeup art prior so that you can get ann idea on the results. She is very talented.“

“Absolutely phenomenal work the hair stylist Stasha is an excellent artist stylist
Thank you“

“Tried BALAYAGE for the first time and I’m honestly so happy with the result.
Booking in advance was really convenient, and I didn’t have to wait long after arriving. Stylist Eavin was very patient and took time to understand the look I wanted. He also helped customize the color and layers to match my face shape and skin tone, so the final result looked super natural and high-end. The layered BALAYAGE gives so much dimension, and the color looks amazing in different lighting. Overall, such a great experience and I’ll definitely come back again!“

“It was my first time growing hair and I had no idea what to do with it. Cheyenne took the time to understand my hair type, explained what haircut would be best and how I could style it, hair products to use, all while giving me a fresh, neat hairstyle.
Glad to have found The Den!

Update: Timothy gave me a haircut this time, and it was perfect! I just vaguely described what I wanted and Timothy was able to actually cut it as such.“

“As someone who is very picky and protective of my hair, I am always concerned going into any new salon. Jessica put that all to rest and is easily the best stylist I’ve ever met, not to mention the best to talk to. As someone who has been to some great hair stylists over the last few years in Chicago, she by far tops them all. She took my reference image and nailed the assignment. I love it so much, and even after less than 24 hours of my new look, I have already received so many compliments on it. I can’t wait to come back and see her soon!“

“The only person I let touch my bangs is Alex. As a Leo rising my hair means everything to me ?? and this is the only place I will go.“
