Best Hair Salons In Chicago

“My artists, Jenna and Milian, at Blush and Braids were simply incredible. I truly have no feedback beyond a glowing review. They made all four of us getting hair and makeup services feel confident and beautiful. Moreover, Jenna went above the call of duty to cover some scarring on my upper arm from a recent shingles outbreak I had leading up to the wedding. Milian’s bridal updo was sleek and elegant, and exactly what I wanted for my look. It also stayed PERFECTLY snatched into place for almost 48 hours!

Jenna and Milian are true artists and I cannot thank them both enough. I know any bride would feel so beautiful, safe, and cared for in their chairs!“

“I had such a wonderful experience with Jamie! She was welcoming from the moment I walked in and so easy to connect with — genuinely relatable in a way that made the whole appointment feel comfortable and enjoyable.

I absolutely love my haircut! She listened, understood exactly what I was going for, and delivered it perfectly. It was truly a pleasure sitting in her chair, and I’m already looking forward to going back. Highly recommend!!“

“Came here for the fist time and got a great haircut from Teo. Got exactly what I wanted and he took a lot of care into the hair cut. Highly recommend“

“Had my first haircut with DeAnne Bittner and let me just tell you, I feel like I got my first REAL haircut in years with her!!!! I’ve been bouncing around to different studios for the past few years and I’ve finally found my spot! It’s wild how good your hair can look after an amazing cut vs a mediocre one. I’m never turning back!!! Scheduling was super easy, Sophie at the front is a gem, and the studio is a really awesome space as well! Look forward to seeing DeAnne again in January!! P.S. She is also very cool and funny!!!!

Stylist: DeAnne Bittner- she’s amazing!!“

“I’ve been going to Ricci Kapricci for several years now, and they always do a fantastic job
Chloé in the Fullerton location is amazing, Lela in the Halsted location also does a beautiful job.
I went to maryna this last time and put some color in hair and a trim, and I’m so obsessed, it was truly the makeover I needed. My hair is glossy and bouncy, and the color is perfect! 11/10 recommend!“

“I’m so happy the algorithm brought Felipé into my feed. The moment I saw his work on SC, I instantly knew he was the stylist I wanted to see. From the warm welcome to the incredible results, the whole experience exceeded my expectations. He truly made me feel like a million bucks — talented, attentive, and beyond just a great stylist.“

“I This barber is on another level. I've tried so many others, and honestly, nobody comes close.“

“Had the pleasure of getting cut by Omar! A true master at what he does. If you are looking for a barber that cuts hair well but also has a great atmosphere, and cares about the haircut experience. He is your guy! Best haircut in Chicago!“

“Claud was great! Gave me just what I wanted, styled me out great, and gave me some great hair care tips!“

“First of, it was my very first time here and the moment I entered the establishment, everyone made me feel welcomed! Robin was amazing and gentle with my facial (first time getting a facial) and explained everything that was happening, Zeena perfectly explained hair treatment options and look forward to working with her, and Kimberly was amazing, told her about a bad experience 2 years ago at a different salon and how nervous I was to go get a cut. Kimberly went above and beyond to make me comfortable, listened, and triple checked in with me before any additional cutting and I was very happy with my cut!“

“Katie was great and personable. Made my curls pop and had some good and reasonable tips. Thank you“

“I’ve trialed many hair stylists in Chicago and Ella is by far the best one I’ve been to. I’ve been going to her for almost a year now and I’m always happy with her cuts!“

“Stella was so great with what I was looking for. I came in with a tint of red from a previous toner I did that would refuse to come out. She educated me on the process and what would be the best route for me to get the outcome I was looking for. Can’t wait to return!“

“We hosted a bachelorette party here for my sister in law and were so happy with the entire experience! Anne and Danielle helped plan the whole event, and coordinated it so that all 8 attendees could receive their spa services at the same time. When we got there, the ladies at the front desk were very welcoming and helpful. All of the girls were very happy with their respective services. I had Dorothy for my massage and facial, and she did an incredible job!
We then got to relax in a private room with champagne and snacks. We visited the pool afterwards, which was also relaxing.
It was truly the perfect start for our bachelorette’s big day!“

“I’ve been going to HOLY FADE for about a year now. Can’t live without River and have referred others to him. Such a nice place with even nicer people. Won’t go anywhere else.“

“First time at Gold Coast salon!! I got a hair cut and full keratin treatment with Ina. (First time getting my a keratin treatment ever) and soooo so happy with the results. Ina did an amazing job providing me with all of the information I needed to learn about keratin as well as after care. My hair looks so much better than it did before. The service from the front desk and all of the stylists was amazing, everyone was so nice. Moving to Chicago from out of state it’s been difficult finding the right salon that styles my hair the way I like it. But I will most definitely be coming back to Gold Coast salon and Ina.“

“I love love this place! I had to get a last minute emergency haircut because the other place I went to didn’t fulfill my ask on how I like my hair. Which led my bangs looking very different and not good. I called Salon Glow because of the reviews and I’m not going to lie I was scared but the hairstylist was so nice and accommodating and I’m very glad I went because she fixed my hair even if it was minor and understood my concern on my original plan that went south.“

“I absolutely adore Lincoln Park Hair salon and would recommend to anyone looking to go on their hair journey. Tanya provides customized advice for your hair needs and provides you with the knowledge and guidance to help you meet your hair goals. When I first started coming here I expressed frustration from previous salons giving my hair a reddish tone and over cutting it. From there she developed a 6 month personalized hair plan for me with instructions on how to best take care of my hair and meet my goals. I’ve already learned so much and I appreciate that I no longer feel alone on this hair growth journey. The service is exceptional and is such a relaxing self care experience. Highly highly recommend.“

“Literally the best haircut I’ve ever gotten. Thank you for the wonders and hope too see you soon next time I come“

“I had an amazing experience with Viviana! She was patient, attentive, and really took the time to listen to all of my needs and wants. She made me feel comfortable throughout the entire appointment. I absolutely love my hair! This was honestly the best hair experience I’ve ever had.“

“Max taught me so much about my own hair! Loved the experience and would definitely come back again!!“

“I’ve loved working with Kourtney for years. She is always a pleasure to chat with and she does a great job. She is caring and a great listener. I enjoy the clean, calm, quiet, modern salon space too. Would recommend!“

“I was looking for a new stylist in West Loop and Laura did not disappoint. She was absolutely amazing!! She listened and delivered with exactly what I wanted for my balayage. The salon itself was super cute too!!“

“I've been coming to this salon for a while and always have a wonderful experience. The staff are friendly, professional, and welcoming, and my stylist consistently does an amazing job. The salon has a great atmosphere, and I always leave feeling happy and confident with my hair. I highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for excellent service and great results!“

“Paige is great every time! Have done a hair donation (which has a discount!) and a normal trim, both turned out great.“
