It was in the evening when I stopped into the Legen--wait for it--dary Spa in Highland Park for a…read moremanicure. It's a bit nondescript from the outside, no signage, although the logo is on the door. It's striking and different inside -- lots of black and plants, botanical plant mural on the wall. It seems quite spacious, although I was the only customer (best for last?). I've been looking specifically for dazzle dry manicures around the area, and that's how I found Legen--wait for it--dary, and I booked online. They did reschedule my appointment because the original nail tech couldn't do DD. Gulzat handled my manicure and did a very nice job, we talked about perfumes (Baccarat Rouge, she complimented me), she offered me a drink, changed up the color when I asked for more sparkle, and did a neat and clean job, nice cuticles. The manicure was a bit more compared to the other salons I've been to recently, and my hands were dry (no lotion). There are other beauty services offered at Legen--I'm allergic to--dary, so I might check them out. All jokes aside, I think my manicure at Legendary was nicely done. I'll come back to Legen--wait for it--

They typically do very well at match mart and Marianne takes great care in ensuring my nail beds never got compromised during removal. Unfortunately this is not the standard for all salons. Whoever helped me exclusively used a drill, I am assuming because she wanted to save time. I had to tell her multiple times that my nail bed was getting too hot and even jumped in pain. Only once ever did I get a removal service like this elsewhere and I never went back - unfortunately I won't be back at this location either. Two weeks later and my nails are still splitting as the grow up and in incredible pain. In short, It took me weeks and weeks to grow my nails out and now I have to start from square -10. This is hurts like crazy, I told the lady she was drilling too much and she said "that's what she had to do". This is just unacceptable.

The best part about visiting my family in IL is that I can schedule an appointment with Ellen…read more Seriously. I've been to the top salons in NYC, and no one compares to Ellen. I never really thought that getting my eyebrows done professionally would make a difference, but the next day, everyone was telling me how refreshed I looked and how beautiful my eyes were! She is the queen of waxing! And I was always afraid of facials because my skin is so sensitive. Finally, as I'm getting older, I decided to give it a try. Ellen took all my concerns into consideration and left me looking fresh and my skin feeling softer than ever. I am now a huge fan of facials! On top of her talents with beauty treatments, she is also the sweetest woman you'll ever meet. In NYC, the people at salons are typically the epitome of ice queens. Ellen is anything but cold. Talking to her is like talking to an old friend. She never imposes, and I never leave her salon disappointed. Ellen deserves the very best review I can give... I'm just afraid that next time I try to make an appointment, she'll be all booked...

I have been really nervous to get a facial since the beginning of the pandemic--really the idea of…read moretaking my mask off anywhere in public is not something I even wanted to entertain. That being said, after going off the pill about 10 months ago, my skin has been an absolute mess. After a lot of searching, I read Ellen's reviews and decided to go for it. I'm SO GLAD I DID!!! Not only is Ellen kind, but she's incredibly talented. Her extractions were one of a kind and my skin is super clean. She did a deep-pore-cleansing facial and derma-planing. It's been a week and my skin is still a little peely (my skin is super sensitive and takes a while to bounce back), but it's clean and so very smooth. Thank you, Ellen!!

I have been going to Taylor Reese for 23+ years. I am a loyal client of Mouna, Michelle, &…read moreRaymond, but have received services from many members of the staff. I come here because the stylists and colorists are the most professional, educated, and talented artists. The continuing education they seek out sets them apart from any other salon in the area. From the moment you arrive at Taylor Reese, you are greeted with smiles and caring conversation. It is an upbeat, yet relaxed vibe. The assistants wash your hair with the finest products tailored to your needs. Each one of them is kind and allows you to relax and enjoy your shampoo and treatments. Taylor Reese provides an array of services and accommodates the client's requests. Each stylist has a specific area in which they shine. The staff will assess and recommend the right professional to make your hair vision come to life. Raymond and Mouna are color geniuses. Mouna's skills are unmatched. She has been a ray of sunshine, setting a high bar for hiring staff. Raymond educates other colorists across the country. Personally, I feel the utmost gratitude, especially to Michelle. She has given me back my confidence and self-esteem with my extensions. She cares deeply for her clients. I am blown away by how often Michelle seeks opportunities to grow, learn, and evolve her skill set. She travels often to take part in courses and to hone her craft. Beyond her mad skills, she is reliable, gracious, and truly understands her clients' needs, and she immediately puts us at ease. A negative Yelp review of Michelle is just not accurate. It makes absolutely no sense. She is the consummate professional. She has a beautiful soul and leads with her whole heart. Many of Michelle's clients, including me, were given the chance to feel beautiful once again with her gorgeous extensions. There are extensions, and then there are Michelle's extensions. I often tell her that I love my "your hair". She elevates the process with the finest hair available. Her ability to color-match is genius. It's impossible to imagine anyone not having the best experience in her care. Michelle is the very best. If you are looking for the best salon, Taylor Reese is the one. It's a place you can count on to be in good hands. Literally.

I have been coming to Taylor Reese Salon for over 5 years now and I always come to see Michelle. I…read moremoved to Arizona and I do not see anyone over there because I have to schedule my appointments with Michelle since she is the best. You get 5 star treatment from her with so much professionalism. I always leave the salon feeling like a brand new person and it changes your whole mood! I always come in for a haircut, highlights/root touchup/gloss. It's the best service you can ask for and you always feel welcomed there. Michelle is seriously the best and I am so thankful that I can always come back to her, all the way from out of town!
