I have been going to Dina for years! She has always made my hair beautiful. The quality of her haircuts etc are awesome. I can't speak for the other beauticians but she is the BEST! read more

I've never been so appalled by the way a business treats people. The staff at this salon refused to cut the hair of an adult with special needs just because he "doesn't tip." Are you kidding me? He's a human being, not a walking tip jar. He's there all the time, even knows him by name, and didn't want to cut his hair. He stood there embarrassed waiting for someone to take him. Denying someone a basic service because of a tip -- which is optional, by the way -- is not just greedy, it's cruel and discriminatory. They clearly have zero understanding or compassion for people with disabilities. And if that wasn't enough, an elderly man accidentally passed gas while sitting nearby. It was clearly unintentional and embarrassing for him -- and instead of handling it with any kind of maturity, the staff laughed in his face. Loudly. Like bullies in a middle school cafeteria. It was humiliating and flat-out mean. This place is a disgrace. Unkind, unprofessional, and heartless. Don't give them a dime -- they don't deserve it. This is my very first time at this place and the very last. If I had a number for their bosses I would gladly call them! read more

Great price, great haircuts! I drive out of my way to go here. Having a nail salon two doors down is a bonus. :)

Walked in on a Saturday morning after I called for a reservation just the day before. This was " Prom weekend " and my sophomore decided she wanted highlights just for the occasion () but Dina saved the day, and not only gave my daughter the best highlights ever but also exactly the cut she required ( she is a dancer and can't have layers cuz her hair are most times in a bun). Dina was accommodating and incredibly patient when my daughter expressed a little disappointment when she realized the front highlights were lighter than she expected, Dina patiently gave her a little toner. With her long hair ( and tons of it) that service would have costed me at least three times of what I paid anywhere else. But Dina was incredibly professional and honest with her pricing. I highly recommend to make an appointment for a service like this, I got lucky that Dina was accommodating. So thankful that there still places like this that make it affordable for high end services like the one we requested. Thank you Dina. read more

Dina's Great Cuts - First highlights by Dina herself - Hair Salons Near Me - Lyons, Illinois

I have been a fairly regular customer for a few years, and usually go for a short haircut and style, so it's simple for me. For the most part, I've been happy with their staff. I usually try to explain how I actually want the cut. I do watch as they are working and don't have a problem speaking up if I think I need to because it is my hair. "Zoning out" is never a good idea no matter where someone gets their hair done. In my case, there was only one time that the cut didn't work well and that's because I wasn't really paying attention AND the stylist was distracted by others in conversation. The place isn't exactly "high end" like other salons, but their rates are fairly reasonable, and I have had no other problems going there. It's probably a good place to take your kids or teens for cuts and styles. The place is clean and the atmosphere is friendly. If someone is planning on more extensive hair styling, then I suggest asking them personally about their services and what to expect. Then you decide if you want to proceed...or not. read more

Got a BAD haircut and terrible customer service. Combs are not in disinfectant. Staff are not professional!

Well, the service in the past as been average at best, but my last experience was terrible. Stopped in 25 minutes before closing when blue haired worker told me (rather rudely) they were done for the day. I turned around and left. I sat in my car for a few minutes looking for another salon when a women walked into the salon, and they sat her done and began working on her hair! My haircuts last about five minute, but they could not be bothered to help me but took someone else after I left. This was a total lack of professionalism and I will not be returning. read more

I've been going to this place for a couple of years now but lately they have been messing up my simple haircut. All I want is a #3 every where and they cant even do that with out creating bald spots. This happened twice in the last three visits . They tried to blame it on hair loss but the hair cut I had between the two bad ones was fine.They said we can fix the last one but made it worse. I would highly not recommend this place. read more

Dina's Great Cuts - 2nd bad haircut at Dinas - Hair Salons Near Me - Lyons, Illinois

See all

They did not cut my hair the way I wanted it. the lady cutting my hair messed up multiple times.

Arrived at 6:30ish and lady said they were closed for the day (online states closes at 8pm and open sign was still on) she asked me to come the next day because she was short staffed. Next day I went to get my highlights and lady didn't ask me any kind of questions just what color I wanted them. if you are getting partial highlights make sure you tell them you want them on TOP (NOT ON FRONT-thats what the lady did on me so back of my hair is all black). It's a hot mess there (and my hair)! so don't get the highlights because they are not worth $95.00 just go to a real salon. read more

I hate giving this place any stars because they truly are the worst. I've never been more disappointed in a haircut/salon then the experience I had here. I came in Saturday for a simple trim and ended up with the most horrible uneven haircut I have ever had. My hair was very long and I only wanted a trim, I was specific about that and apparently the lady was either dumb or hard at hearing because she cut at least 5 inches off. Not only did I leave with my hair completely chopped off but it looked so damn horrible!!! I could have done a better job myself. I will never go here again and if you like your hair do NOT go here, they are horrible. They say it's under new management but I think what they need is new hairdresser!!!! read more

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SERVICE I WALKED IN AT 530 asking for a trim she going to tell another lady in Spanish that she can't cut my hair I have horrible hair and she has a party to go to I turned around and said excuses me I speak Spanish and all you have to do it wet my hair and trim it she said I have no time when I was walking out a couple of guys came in talking to her in Spanish and guess what they sat HIM IN her chair she started cutting his hair at 545 HORRIBLE SERVICE THAT SPANISH LADY AT STATION 4. IS HORRIBLE AND UNPROFESSIONAL read more

i arrived at 7:42pm and it closes at 8pm. The Open sign was still lit. One of the ladies was sitting down, the other was in the back. Both ladies looked at each other and asked one another in Spanish if it was too late to take me, then said they were closed. Mind you no one else was there only me. Then they said they opened the next day at 9am. I was only getting a simple haircut. They lost a long time customer. Poor customer service. read more

I walk in & I do not get greeted at all as one of the ladies looks up at me and then looks back down and continues to work on the man's hair she was cutting. Not off to a good start. I then tell the same lady goodbye (in which I regret) and she gives me a look and then says "uh bye". I found this to be very rude. Do not recommend this place as it also looks old and dim inside. Maybe brighten it up a little. read more

I went to get my blonde highlights, and just after she starts I see a roach, then more coming down the mirror coming out the drawers, and while I was freaking out, they get out roach sprays! They were spraying it under my feet while I was under the blower! All those chemicals in my face, then started sweeping up dead ones, all the while they are trying to stomp on them as they scurry around!! I seen baby roaches and huge roaches. They said they knew about it, but they are not telling customers!!! Purses are on floors, kids!! It was Not a relaxing day at the salon!! Gross!! So infested!!, I didn't even stay to dry or style my hair!, ps, you would think they would have discounted me. Ewwww.!!! read more

The cuts for men aren't hair cuts, they lawn maintenance you. What do you expect for $7 though....

Ok, as you can tell by the name... this place is nothing fancy. But... you cannot believe the customers they have! The traffic is nonstop in here. The prices for cuts and color are beyond reasonable. They don't waste time in here, they are just way too busy. Ask for Elide. She has colored my hair and did a great job. Just remember... This is NOT a fancy beauty salon! But they get the job done and right! read more

I went here to get a haircut yesterday and my hair was destroyed. My hairstyle looks atrocious right now. I want to wear a hat and never remove it. The lady that cut my hair, didn't speak English so I couldn't communicate with her properly. I won't be coming here anymore. Never again. read more

I should of asked how much for color. My hair is short. they charged me for long hair, the lady acting like I was her first client that she had to go ask Dina for a price really. I would give you a zero if I could. Shame on you people read more

I would give zero stars if that was possible. Do your self a favor and don't even waste your $7 here. This place is absolutely terrible. I went in for a trim. An inch. I expressed my concern to the stylist Blanca, I really just wanted the tips of my hair cut. Walked in with hair to the small of my back walked out with shoulder length hair. She asked if I liked it. I was in shock, I said no and she just shrugged and walked away. Had her next customer in the chair before I had a chance to gather all my things. no and she just shrugged and walked away. I had to have my hair evened out by a professional because it was choppy and in even. I would steer clear of this place if you value your hair. read more

Speed in for a quick cut for my hubby, LOVED IT!! DID A GREAT JOB!!! Will get 5 stars when I get MY hair done

I took my 6 year old son there for a hair cut and the stylist cut his ear. As he started bleeding he was crying and she tells him it was his fault because he moved!!! I was livid because I was standing right there and he wasn't moving at all. It's not like he was 2 and having his 1st hair cut!!! Very unprofessional and SHE DIDN'T EVEN APOLOGIZE!!!! read more

If this review had a negative rating option I would have chosen that instead! A one star rating is too high as far as I'm concerned. The shop is not bad, at least as far as appearance goes. So, if you drove by and looked through the windows and didn't stop, it would be a nice place. If you happen to actually stop in and ask for a haircut that's were you start running into problems. Unless you are Hispanic DO NOT go here unless you have a translator, as 90% of the "barbers", and I use that term loosely, are Hispanic women. But, before I continue on with my review, I must quickly take the time to apologize to REAL hair professionals for classifying these people as "barbers." I guess the accepted vernacular would be "Butcher." Seems more fitting, as that is what they do to your hair, they butcher it! My children have cut straighter lines on construction paper with safety scissors better than these impostors... But I digress..... I am most certain that these people are not licensed, and well, illegal! Dina should be ashamed of herself for hiring such sub par people. Maybe she is an immigrant herself! Don't get me wrong, I'm all for helping people out and giving them a means to make a living but not if they are posing as hairstylists and try to cut my hair!!! Dina's is a disaster! Stay far, far away. If you choose to heed my warning and go anyway, chances are you might come out with a halfway descent haircut. Then again, chances are you will have a horrible haircut. I took my children there and one of the ladies cut the back of my Son's head three times! I understand children's' skin is not as tough, and the clippers will nick them. But this lady looked like she was trying to carve a pumpkin on the back of my Boy's neck!! Not cool. My other boy would have been better off with a bowl placed on is head and had Stevie Wonder cut around it with clippers. If you do not care how you look, and just want your mop cut, then go to Dina's. But I suspect that if you are going to get a haircut, you have some regard for your appearance. If so, then by all means, DO NOT GO THERE! Find another hair cut place! The title should be Dina's Chop Shop!!! read more

Hello: I have been coming to this salon for at least 3 years and yes it's not a fancy place but they get the job done and they do it good and fast, I recomed this place if all you wanna get is a simple hair cut for less than $7.00, once again don't expect to be wow by this place, they cut hair and they do it good. read more

Really love this place. The haircuts are really affordable (6.99) and every hair stylist there is really sweet and attentive. Walk in appointments are preferred amd even with a line a head of you, it's only about a 15 minute wait. read more

I always feel welcome when I walk in. Easy parking. Great prices for Men's cuts.. My stylist, Blanca, (Who I followed from her previous shop in LaGrange Park) always does the best job on my hair. read more

I came here one day after work since I seriously needed to trim my ends. So I came in & didn't have to wait. An old Hispanic woman with dyed hair & overly done makeup took me & asked what I wanted done. Told her just the split ends about 2 inches. She started to spray my hair with water making it damp, which was fine but I asked if she could wash my hair. She had the audacity to tell me they don't wash hair there, which is bullshit because I can clearly see the washing station not too far from where I'm sitting. She cut my ends & grabbed the blow dryer & kept swinging it in her hand back & forth on my hair. My hair was still damp & she said we were done. I asked if she was going to style my hair & she said very annoyed "we don't style hair here". Told me my cut was $7 & walked away from me towards the back of the salon. I was fucking furious!!!! I was ready to leave her only $1 for her crappy hair cut. I left that $7 there & had to go spend more money at another salon closer to my house bcuz she cut my hair uneven!!! I am thankful to say I will NEVER give this place my money again! I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PLACE EVER!! read more

Friendly, cheap, fast experience. I went to several places to see how much it would cost to get my two young boys trimmed. Every place I went to was going to cost me over $55+ without tip!!!! This place caught my attention because of its advertised $6.99 haircut! I was very surprised, it's a little rundown but you get friendly, fast, and a great cut for a low price. It allowed me to give them a decent tip all for under $35 for both boys under 30 minutes too. read more

Terrible customer service!!! If I could give zero stars I would! I was unhappy w my crooked haircut and when I asked to have it straightened out the workers there were super disrespectful and actually started talking about me in Spanish not knowing that I speak the language fluently! They said a whole bunch of stuff including "you are not going to tell me how to cut your hair" and "she thinks we didn't go to school." Absolutely ridiculous I will never go get my haircut there again. Do not recommend. read more

Stay away from this place. I went in for color and cut and they totally messed up my hair. Does not look anything like I asked for. Then they are gonna say I'm wrong. Look in the mirror. Hello!!! Are you blind? Maybe if someone in there spoke English it wouldn't have been a problem. What a mess. read more

I definitely won't be back anytime to get an updo by uneducated "hairstylists" there was a lady who was beyond rude when I first entered the place. I ended up paying $45 for my hair to smell burnt and look like a hair sprayed chola. The picture I showed the girl looked nothing like what I ended up with..never again will I go back there! read more

I have been a customer at Dina's in Lyons for more than 10 years. I have received nothing but great service in all the years I've been going there. They are very accommodating and the prices are unbeatable! read more

I wanted a simple trim and layers...ended up with one side of my hair about an inch shorter than the other and no layers. Also asked for the ends to be rounded instead of squared off, the lady squared them off. It was too quick of a cut and I had a feeling I was going to dislike it once I got home and took a really good look at it. No intentions of ever going back. Ever. read more

Dina's is Great! My 2 grandson's and my husband go there for their cuts. Very reasonable and you don't have to wait that long! The other day my grandson left his Kindle there by mistake, when we realized that he did not bring it out with him after his appt. the shop was already closed. The next morning I called and for sure they remembered him and kept it safe for him in the shop, anywhere else it might have been picked up and taken by someone! Thanks again for keeping it safe, after all he is only 7! read more

Great customer Service, perform what the customer asks for rather than what the stylist wants to do. Lilly was amazing and came in early to do my hair for a wedding I was in. I gave her free reign and was not disappointed. Thank you guys for the flexibility and working extra to coordinate my schedule read more

Iv'e been going there for month's now i get a good clean cut and friendly service i also go to the one that did it the first time because she is good her name is (blanca) the best anyway it's not a bad place and the price is right you should tip what the 7$ hair cut is i like it and BLANCA is a good stylist. read more

I LOVED IT just amazing, I took my son their for a haircut and I was impressed and its for a affordable price too. Everyone complimented my son at his school. I'll definitely come again. read more

I used to get great service, until this past week when I went to see Blanca at the Lyons location and she refused to do my hair (color) because she was getting off "soon". Well that soon was still 2 hours away. Therefore, I saw someone else and they completely did not color my hair the way I asked. Not sure I will be going back to them, its a shame as I have been going there for years. read more
