    River at sine qua non cut both girls hair beautifully. Curly hair with lots of volume and layers for the straight hair! Two completely different types of hair and two beautiful cuts! Thank you River!

    i thought my life was over when my previous stylist moved. BUT: when one door closes, etc, as they say. bridgette is the best thing that’s ever happened to me probably. she’s incredible, she’s so knowledgable, and she’s hilarious. the rest of the staff are wonderful and welcoming too (shout out monet!) and the space is beautiful. plus, they give me a pbr even when my appointment is maybe a bit earlier than 5 o’clock somewhere, and their prices are incredibly reasonable for the level of service. please never leave me.

    I went to the Sine Qua Non salon in Lakeview yesterday and was blown away. Previously, I had been going to the same stylist for the past 5 years and knew it was time for a change. I'm so glad I came here. Kate who was working at the front desk was so polite and professional. Kiki, my stylist, really heard me and I'm not exaggerating when I say this because she made sure that she gave me EXACTLY what I wanted. Lastly, Mary Kate, who shampooed my hair was so sweet and attentive. I really appreciated everyone's attention to detail here. I prebooked my next appointment and I'm looking forward to coming back!

    Stylist: Book with Kiki, you won't be disappointed!
