    After!

    Ellegant Salon, welcoming environment! Brea is great at what she does!! She heard me, understood and worked her magic!!

    Booked a balayage with Gabby last minute and had a great experience. I haven't had my hair done professionally in 5+ years. She did exactly what I was looking for in my inspo picture and it all blends so nicely. Great vibes and conversation as well. Plus the salon is beautifully designed, up to date and clean. Easy to find parking on a week day.

    Blotchy, not blended "full bayalage"
    Momma M.

    This was the worst hair experience I've ever had. Went in for a consultation with a stylist, I had reference photos and very specific details about what I wanted. I have thick curly hair that is starting to get a little grey around the hairline. I wanted bayalage to blend the grey and lighten up my naturally dark have. I even asked the stylist if she was confident coloring my textured hair. This stylist assured me that she was very confident. I specifically told her I was nervous as a few years ago I had a color mishap that I was not wanting to repeat. Once again the stylist assured me that she could give me a nice result. Also during the consultation we did decide that this service would be a partial bayalage. The day of the actual service I was so excited, and went over everything we discussed in the consultation and told this stylist that I didn't want to spend all this time in the chair to come out looking the same. The stylist again reassured me this would not be the case. A few moments into this foil session she then said I should do a full bayalage for a better result. I agreed to that and after over two hours of placing the foils, I realized there weren't many foils in my hair. I trusted the process though. After about 4.5 hours this stylist removed the foils, and my first thought my hair looks the same hardly any bayalage...The stylist then told me she could not dry my hair because she ran out of time. The stylist then passed me off to another stylist to dry my hair. When my hair was dry, it looked ok in the front (I was not shown the back or sides). It was not nearly what I discussed with the colorist and in fact it was everything I told her I didn't want...BUT it wasn't horrible, I could live with it and maybe next time she would get closer to what I really wanted. I paid almost $500. I got home and realized I wasn't shown the back or sides of my hair. Well no wonder WHAT A DISASTER IT WAS!!! The bayalage was only on the left side of my head, it looked like it had grown out for over a year and my grey was not blended. I quickly called the salon, sent photos and told the colorist she had to add foils to the right side of my head and blend them closer to my scalp. The stylist said she would not do that, that she would blend it with color glaze. I explained to her that this is improper and after 1 one wash the glaze would rinse out and I would still have the same problem. The colorist refused and asked me to come the following week. I decided not to argue with her and to let her see it in person. When the stylist saw it, she agreed it could be better and again I recommended adding more highlights to balance. Again she refused and wanted to cover it with glaze. I gave in, she wore me down. After the glaze the hair looked the same. She did the glaze again and it covered. At this point I wanted out of this hair hell. After one wash all the glaze fell out and the bayalage was still uneven and the highlights orange at my hairline and blonde on the ends. I had enough I emailed the owner and my god what a nightmare she was. She made me come in to see my hair and tried her best to gaslight me into believing my hair was fine. The owner never offered to have someone else fix it. I literally had to get worked up and angry with her for a refund. I have worked in hair salons for years and I understand the culture well, I was shocked by the horrible customer disrespect and disservice. Never have I had to ask for a refund for hair services in my 30 years of getting my hair colored. Beware of this place. Do not recommend!

    I got a haircut at Arsova Salon for my recent trip to Spain, and it was a good experience! Beth was my stylist, and she did a fabulous job recommending a haircut that would suit my face shape. She was also very patient with any requests I had. Overall, the salon is clean and tidy. My appointment was booked for a Friday evening; however, the salon reached out earlier to ask if I could bump up my appointment. I was able to, and it worked in both our favors! Overall, it's a great salon and pretty reasonable as well. I can see myself coming back to this place!

    Balayage highlights

    Hailey is absolutely amazing at her job! I went from fully blonde to brunette a few years ago and she is the only one I trust to add some dimension in my hair with it still feeling so natural. She specializes in blondes and is one of the bests I've been to for brightness!

    AFTER KEITH DID HIS FAMOUS WORK.. thank you arsova!!!

    I had a horrible balayage done from a very high end salon that quite literally ruined my hair. I did my research and found Keith who is one of the best in he city at balayage. I came to Arsova salon to see Keith as I heard he was one of the best balayage artists in Chicago. Keith quite literally saved my hair and life. I will never go to anyone else. If you need any balayage or want to look hot walking out of a salon and not be disappointed after paying a lot of money then you have to come to Keith. He listens to your needs, gives suggestions, and makes you look like the hottest/healthiest you have ever looked.

    Jason is a very underrated hair stylist at this salon! I have gotten two haircuts from him, both I…read morewas very satisfied with. The first one was a layered cut with a side fringe. He was very meticulous and took his time to make sure all of the layers were even. He was very friendly during the whole interaction. Recently, I made a drastic change from long hair to a pixie cut. I showed Jason my reference pictures, and he was able to cut it in the way I requested while also making it fit my face shape. Again, he took a lot of time to perfect the shape and texture. I was very impressed with the ending result! I have since gotten many compliments on my new style. Additionally, the salon itself is clean and simple. The other staff I have interacted with were nice and efficient. The receptionist also helps with translations to effectively communicate what you want done. I have always favored Asian hair salons for my hair type, but it is very rare that I come across a stylist as skilled as Jason. If you're into layered cuts, I definitely recommend booking him.

    I cannot say enough good things about Lira Hair Salon. I came in after a disastrous visit to a…read moreso‑called "blonde specialist" who completely ruined my hair while trying to take me from brunette to blonde. My hair was damaged, uneven, and honestly I was scared to try again. Lira changed everything. She not only helped me achieve the blonde I originally wanted, but she did it in a way that protected my hair and brought it back to life. My color looks beautiful, natural, and exactly how I envisioned it. Even better--my hair is actually growing back and feeling healthy again. Lira is truly a master of her craft. She listens, she cares, and she knows exactly what she's doing. If you're thinking about going blonde or need someone to fix a color gone wrong, she's the one you want in your corner. Absolutely worth every visit.

    First I will start with what was good…read more 1. The dye job ended up beautiful. I came in with pretty unclear instructions and reference photos and both the stylist and the owner were able to figure out what fit my needs. This seems to be a huge strength here. 2. They were able to fit me in last minute. What was bad 1. The total time listed online was 1.45 hours, the service ended up taking 2.45 hours. I have been to many salons and never had my hair take that long, especially when I was getting all over color and a blowout (no haircut). Perhaps this was due to me booking last minute. However, the website booking made it look wide open and I think it is the responsibility of the salon to accurately represent their booking capability. I would not have booked with them had I known what experience was to follow. 2. The salon overall seemed overbooked and people were bouncing around. Three different people worked on my hair. Personally, I really didn't like this set up. I like to build a relationship with my stylist and this hectic atmosphere was not synonymous with that 3. The blowout I had was so uncomfortable. The rollers were tangled up in my hair and I could feel it ripping out as the stylist took them out. I have never have a blowout be so painful. My hair had so many split ends after I looked in the mirror at home. 4. My hair fell the moment I stepped outside. Granted it was a windy day, but my hair doesn't typically fall that fast. I think this may have been due to the stylist rushing at the end. On one hand I'm glad she did because I had been sitting alone for quite some time, but on the other hand I paid for essentially nothing. My old stylist back home (moved cross country) had no problem giving me a blowout that lasted at least a few hours. Even on windy days. 5. At one point the owner took my stylist in the back and seemed to be scolding her. This is never something a new client wants to see. I immediately felt anxious that something had gone wrong with my hair color. It ended up great but tbh experience was awkward and handled strangely in my opinion. 6. Finally. The price came out to $260 for all over color and a blowout. I wouldn't mind this price if it wasn't for the lackluster experience. Hair salons are charging luxury prices without offering luxury experiences. The pricing structure is also strange. They charge $60 extra for toner but I have never had a color job that didn't need toner to look good. It feels strange to not include it all together. The toner charge was added after which was a surprise because toner has always been included in the price. To be clear, the website did ask if I wanted to add toner for $60. I thought that was for someone coming in looking just to tone and not add more color. Perhaps this was my mistake but I found the whole pricing structure strange. A few other things to note: water was offered but never given and they only accept cash/zelle/venmo tips. Overall this salon was not a fit for me. A lot of this is subjective preference but I think it's important that people understand what environment they are paying for when they sign up to spend hundreds. That being said, the color was beautiful and I am grateful for that.

I've always been able to park on the side of the street. Price- Fair pricing considering the quality and time spent. I'm usually there 8-9 hours. Hair stylist- Leo is amazing at what he does. He doesn't rush anything. He takes his time, gives you his honest professional advice on what color you want to achieve while keeping the integrity of your hair. I love how Leo styles my hair. It always feels silky smooth and soft. He can cut hair and gave me the cutest angle bob. So don't hesitate to get haircuts from him either. I always get compliments on my hair and recommended him to my co worker and now she goes to him too! Her hair looks amazing and healthy. She is happy with her results and said she will continue to see him. The hair results don't lie! Oh and whatever hair products they use to wash your hair with smells amazing and I keep forgetting to ask what it is!
