    I was lucky enough to find Marlene early in my seven years in Chicago. She consistently produced excellent cuts for my curly hair as well as spot-on highlights and lowlights perfect for camouflaging the gray. I so appreciated her friendly demeanor and the comfortable atmosphere she has created at AJ Salon. Thank you Marlene!

    Marlene is FANTASTIC 🌟🌟🌟 & turns out a neighborhood gem for almost 20years - really time for a real haircut (no more kitchen scissors, COVID is over!) & Marlene fixed my uneven mess + gave me a great new length! Will definitely be back!!

    Marlene did an amazing job on my hair yesterday and I’ve received many compliments this morning at work. My hair was just blah and lifeless and Marlene gave me a great cut that has just the right amount of volume without being high maintenance. Highly recommend!
