Rashall is incredible with kids. Not once have either of our boys cried in her chair. She keeps them entertained, works efficiently, and somehow delivers a consistently great cut while doing it. What we really appreciate is how communicative she is--she talks us through what she's doing, explains what she thinks will work best, and makes us feel totally comfortable every step of the way. We genuinely love coming here. And honestly... if I had hair on my head, I'd let Rashall cut it without hesitation. Highly, highly recommend.

I called several times to find out what was going on... it went to an archaic answering machine (I left a msg). I waited for an hour and she never showed up. I called again so she could tell me her actual hours since they obviously aren't 11am like her business says. It took her over 2 weeks to respond to my messages. Who runs a business this way??? To make matters worse, I ended up deciding to give her another chance thinking maybe that was a one-off...bad day.... I called ahead and made an appointment for 4pm on a Friday. I showed up at 4pm to see a hand written note on the door saying that she will be back at 4:30pm. What on earth?!?? Unprofessional is an understatement for the way this woman conducts business. I will never return here!! Initially I referred 5-6 people to her when she wasn't treating her clients this way. I will inform all of them and hope they, too, stop giving her their business. I can't believe she is still in business treating people this way.

Welcoming always. Great staff, always attentive and patient!. My kids will never go anywhere else.read more

I want to clarify a few things, because being called a liar and having my experience dismissed is…read moreextremely unprofessional and not acceptable. I have been to this salon three times. I continued to return specifically because I liked one particular hairdresser and had no complaints about her work. My review was never an attack on the stylists themselves . However, I did feel that the environment was unwelcoming at times, and after my third visit, I felt it was important to be honest about that experience. Part of my review included concerns that were shared with me by my sister, who no longer comes to this salon due to feeling uncomfortable and out of place. She explained to me that on multiple occasions she felt she was treated differently, received looks that made her feel she did not belong, and was consistently serviced last while other customers were taken first. She is not confrontational and chose not to address it herself, but her experience mattered to me, and that is why I mentioned it. Sharing someone's lived experience does not make me a liar. To say that dismissing someone's feelings or perspective as "insane" simply because it does not match your own is deeply concerning. You cannot prove or disprove how someone feels in a space, regardless of who else was present that day. Asking a stylist basic questions about management and tipping was not done maliciously. I was simply trying to understand the environment and leadership of the establishment something customers are allowed to be curious about. Unfortunately, your response has now answered those questions for me. I fully understand that this salon primarily serves children, and that delays can happen. My issue was not the eight-minute wait itself, but the lack of communication. Being left standing to the side without explanation while others are attended to naturally creates confusion and discomfort. A simple acknowledgment would have gone a long way. I acknowledge that I could have explained certain parts of my review more clearly, and I am doing so now. What I will not accept is being labeled dishonest or having my concerns minimized instead of addressed with professionalism. I am entitled to my opinion and my experience, just as other reviewers are. I returned for the skill of one stylist, but overall, I did not feel welcomed, and your public response has reinforced that feeling. This interaction alone has ensured that I will not be returning. I also find it concerning that, rather than seeking clarification or addressing the feedback constructively, your response publicly labels me dishonest and dismisses my experience outright. That approach reinforces the very concerns raised in my review. I stand by my review as an accurate reflection of my experience and perspective. I returned for one stylist's work, but overall did not feel welcomed. Your response has confirmed my decision not to return. You repeatedly reference having "proof" related to timestamps, payment times, and the absence of walk-ins. Those details do not invalidate or disprove the concerns raised in my review. Customer experiences are not limited to transaction records or scheduling data. Feelings of being overlooked, excluded, or treated differently are subjective and cannot be disproven through receipts, timestamps, or internal records. I apologize if my original review was not clear enough in explaining these concerns. I hope this response clarifies my experience and perspective.

My hair is poly-amorous since I go to both Shannon and Shelli. I started seeing Shannon in 2004,…read moreand Shelli, her psychic twin, in '05 or '06. Once they even did me tandem for a chemical straightening, and the results were terrific. Ruelle is now our meeting place - a tiny, indie salon owned by Sh & Sh. We've done a lot of hair styles together, and the prices aren't insane. They don't mind that I'm constantly calling them by the other's name. And I'd still like to recommend them both. Happy, satisfied hair.

I met Shelli, my stylist, at Poe.m Art House next door; I had been thinking of switching from the…read moreplace I was going to in Joliet because it's so far now that I am in Naperville. Shelli described a bit what she would consider doing with my hair and gave me her number. It was low-pressure enough that I contacted her the next time I needed a hair cut. I have always been a reluctant style subject. Since my mom subjected me to cuts by beauty school fiends as a kid, I have always been afraid of change, but Shelli and I had a nice discussion about what I could deal with (i.e. not 50 products and flatirons; I can't even dry my hair without bonking myself in the head repeatedly) and what I was looking for. She talked me up to something a little different but that was similar enough that I wouldn't go into shock. She also gave me good tips on how to style/dry it, since I am all thumbs at that (though on the first attempt I did a pretty good job at recreating her results, so that's saying something for her technique!) Maybe next we will move up to color, a new step for me! The salon itself is small with an explosion of graffiti-looking murals on the walls. Not what you might expect in Downers Grove, but it's cool that they are adding a splash of urban flair to this 'burb.

They do a certificate for your child's first haircut with a picture and a lock of their hair. Very cute! We usually book with Nadya. I like that they have little car chairs and they will put a tablet with YouTube TV on to keep your child distracted. Most recently I booked with Laurie. I thought she did a good job of interacting with my grumpy 2 year old, but when we got home, I realized his haircut was quite crooked. Beware that they have a ton of toys for sale. You usually get a very small prize for free, but you might have to ask.

Came in and they didn't have my appointment. Luckily I took a screenshot. Then asked what we wanted for his hair. Thought we were on the same page. She started shaving and didn't leave any length in the back. Wanted it long on top so we had to go way shorter than we wanted. She said she had to go short because of his cowlick. He's four. We've never had this issue. So disappointed. If you want anything other than a buzz cut I would not come here. Edited to share a photo of the hack job this place did on my son since the owner tried to justify the cut on another review platform and blame me for not knowing the difference between a 2 or a 3. There is no way she'd be able to blend this. Just awful.

A wonderful find! I just moved to Naperville from Chicago where I had a stylist for 10+ years that…read moreI was very devoted to. However, getting into the city for a cut & color with 2 small kids in tow was becoming impossible. I was overwhelmed by all the salon options in Naperville though. I happened to be driving through the strip mall where the Salon Avenue suites are located and went in out of curiousity. I have never seen a set up like Salon Avenue before - each suite is an independently run business with it's own hours, stylist, etc. I stopped to pick up a brochure from the Curls & Swirls suite and Gina greeted me very warmly. I explained that I was new to the area and looking for a new stylist. After chatting for a few minutes I made my first appointment with her partner Melissa. I have seen Melissa now for 6 months. She has cut my hair (a completely new style for me) about 10 times and colored it twice and every time I have been absolutely thrilled with the results. The prices are VERY reasonable (especially compared to Chicago) and the service is top notch. There is nothing pretentious about this place, it is relaxed and comfortable. The hours are fantastic too which is great for a Mom like me (where else can you get a haircut & color on a Sunday afternoon??) I am really, really happy that I found this salon.
