    All three of us ladies got our hair and makeup done at Goldplaited!

    Me and my girls got our hair and makeup done at goldplaited for my wedding! I choose goldplaited because I was an out of state bride that could not do a trial run beforehand. The bridal party package was perfect! I only had an inspo pic for my hair and she did a fantastic job! My hair stayed all day even in wind. My hair still looked great the next day. For makeup we just gave the direction of making our eyes pop and makeup that will last being outside all day. Let me tell you, we were out until 4 am and my lashes were still completely intact and I only had to blot once all day. We were very happy with the end result and also the experience. The salon is very clean and bright. Everyone is super friendly and accommodating. We were checked in with throughout the process and if we wanted to change something they did until we were happy. I wish I could give more stars! Also, you are able to buy your lipstick for reapplying. That came in very handy after saying I Do!

    Gorgeous fishtail braid by Krista!

    I'm a diehard fan of the Lakeview location and I'm so thrilled that the Goldplaited ladies have opened a new salon! I've only been to this location for some braids but it is the perfect River North sister to the original- a little more chic in vibe but not stuffy or pretentious in the slightest. I was told that they're doing a lot of events/weddings there so it's a wonderful, spread out space for that. Krista is truly the braid master-- we've done fishtails, braided buns, dutch braids, you name it- she can do it. I'm sure they know how lucky they are to have someone of her caliber. I usually come in at weird times midday so I always get Krista. I can't speak for any other stylists here but knowing Goldplaited, they're probably great too :) Even though I live on the far north side, getting here is no big deal since they are conveniently located by the Merchandise Mart brown line. While I am still a big fan of the full blowout routine, I am so happy this location exists!

    A bit late but the Goldplaited team made my mom, maids of honor and myself look AMAZING for my September wedding! I had to change my chosen hairstyle after my trial due to a bad bangs haircut from another salon but they worked with what I had and made me feel beautiful. The salon itself was super cute and it was nice to get out of our hotel for a bit to get ready. Honestly could not have had a better experience. Thank you Goldplaited team!

    I was in town for a wedding, booked online at the last minute for hair and make-up on Labor Day when another salon in town dropped the ball on a booking. I am glad they did, wow, this salon did not disappoint. Both services, hair and make-up, were outstanding. I have gotten my hair and make-up done many times in the past for dance and honestly they both did among the best I've ever had and I'm really picky. I got tons of compliments and they did a very natural job with both hair and make-up. I cannot say enough. I even booked times with some cushion since I was coming straight from the airport. Arrived 30 minutes early, asked if they could accommodate me early and they did without even flinching. So friendly, my hair was done in like 15 minutes, but honestly I am not kidding when I say it was awesome. Usually my hair is finicky and starts acting unruly when curled toward the end of the night. It was amazing and all curls perfectly in place. I actually even slept on it and it was still awesome on my flight home the next day. I was pretty sad when I had to take a shower and wash it out. I need to get a digital perm to replicate what was done, lol. And the price was amazingly reasonable. Wow, love this place, wish I lived closer but thank you ladies!!!

    See all

    I recently visited this store with my friends, and we were treated absolutely unfairly. After…read morebrowsing and peacefully walking out (without buying anything), one of the workers came running after us and accused us of stealing. We were shocked, confused, and honestly embarrassed, in public for something we didn't do. They didn't ask politely or explain anything. They just assumed. No proof. No apology. nothing We cooperated and showed them we had nothing, and instead of admitting their mistake, they gave us attitude and let us go like we were guilty. This kind of treatment is completely unacceptable, especially when you treat young customers like criminals just because we're teens or don't "look" like your usual shoppers. We came to shop, not to be profiled or harassed. I will not be returning, and I wouldn't recommend this store to anyone who values basic respect.

    She is on the phone. "Hi, may I take a quick picture?"…read moreI asked politely. The lady responded, "no photo, goodbye." While this short poem pretty much sums up my 30-second visit at Oriental Boutique, it is also an acrostic that describes the lady's attitude and the service. I was looking for a traditional Chinese dress (i.e. Qi Pao) for my girlfriend, whom I am going to marry. However, most of the designs cater to kids or tourists (that might explain why most positive reviews were written by non-Asian customers... just saying!) and very few of them are for adults. As someone who grew up in an ethnically Chinese background, I had seen and worn more culturally authentic and better designed traditional gowns and dresses. Many designs displayed in the store seem "oriental" in a western sense or as in what westerners think "oriental" should look like, but this is just my subjective observation and honest opinion. The lady was on the phone all the time, and when I asked her question, she literally answered, "no photo, goodbye." Okay. BYE. NEVER AGAIN! Wish I could have given a zero or a negative number.
