Makeup in Hinsdale

“The salon is located in downtown Hinsdale. I personally have never been to this area so it can be confusing and for some reason my phone maps would bring be in the back alley. They have street meter parking available 50 cents every two hours or there is a parking garage and you would just have to walk further. If you drive or walk too fast, you may just pass up the salon, but there is a sign outside on the brick wall "Halo". When you enter, you have to go up a flight of stairs and walk down it is the second door to the left. You will see another sign shown in my photos that says "halo". This hallway is the "waiting" area before entry. The salon is friendly, chic and cozy! Very pleasant atmosphere, especially considering the difficult times we are all facing with the current pandemic. They are doing a outstanding job taking all of the necessary precautions with COVID. As I just mentioned, you wait in that hallway for entry into the salon because a staff member will take your temperature and they provide hand sanitizer. All staff had on mask, there was the clear shield between the cashier and customers, and all customers were sat far apart. So, this was my first time at a salon. My sister in law has been doing my hair for the last 5 years and before that I would go to a beautician that was in school. My sister in law went on maternity leave. Before I knew she was coming back, I scheduled an appointment for a consultation with Krista. I needed a touch up and was interested in having extensions done. Krista from the moment we met was very nice and welcoming. She told me what she can do for me, the process and how much it would cost. Throughout the whole process she was thoughtful, spent time listening to me and what I wanted and she matched the color of my hair to the extensions. Also, Krista was AMAZING at shampooing my hair. She gave me such a great head massage, I would literally go back for just the massage. Helping Krista was Yasmin who cut my hair. Of course getting extensions you want it to blend with your natural hair, so I was nervous, but Yasmin did a fantastic job. I like the layers she created and she told me how to brush my hair to make my natural part fall on its own. I was nervous at first and not sure if I was going to do it, but I am very happy I did!“

“I booked Ten Friends Bridal for hair and makeup services on my wedding day. I hadn't personally had experience with them, so I based this decision off of their prices, services, and reviews. I was so happy with my decision to book with them! Lindsay was extremely helpful during the entire planning process and was always available if I had a question. I had an amazing team on the day of: Francesca, Lindsay, Amanda, and Sarah. All of these ladies are extremely professional and truly care about making you look and feel your best. I would highly recommend Ten Friends Bridal to anyone looking for hair/makeup services!Services: Updos“

“Levato Salon & Skin Lab continues to impress me. The staff is warm and friendly and really sets the tone for the overall experience. Jena is an experienced stylist, who took the time to listen to my hair concerns and offered great advice. She made me feel so special and graciously showed me a new technique for styling my bangs. Jena is my new go-to hairstylist. Liliana is an angel esthetician. She tinted my brows and lashes, as well as my sugar Brazilian. She worked quickly(which is so important to me for hair removal services) but was detail oriented throughout the whole process. She made me feel comfortable and even did a complimentary mini facial. I truly felt the TLC from both ladies and I cannot wait for my next visit.Services: Body waxing“
