I've been going to ISO since moving to FRG about 4 years ago. Rachel and her team keep such a…read morecomfortable, welcoming, and fun environment that I look forward to each of my appointments! I go there exclusively and regularly for my hair, but I've also gotten mani/pedis and spray tans at ISO. I've always been impressed with the results of every service, the prices, and everyone's friendly attitudes! It's such a treat going to ISO that I even got my husband to start seeing Rachel for his haircuts, and he was STRICTLY a Great Cuts kind of guy before. I appreciate that he's looking much more coiffed these days, and he's not too proud to admit that he looks forward to the scalp massage and pampering every few weeks too. Such a nice surprise to have this kind of oasis in little ol' Fox River Grove.

Top notch salon with a friendly group of talented professionals in the suburbs, a true gem! I used…read moreto live in Crystal Lake and now I drive nearly an hour each way because I haven't found another salon that can do my color and cut just right. Chrissy, Kristin, and Andy have all cut and colored my hair over the years and they are all amazing. I learned the salon trains everyone on the same techniques, so I'm comfortable with more than one stylist. They truly listen, make suggestions for my type of hair, and it always turns out looking amazing. My most recent visit, I wanted a new shorter style, Chrissy cut around 6 inches off of my hair and it looked exactly like I had envisioned! I'm ready for Fall! Over the years they've also made product recommendations and allowed me to sample products. I'm now completely hooked on Surface hair products and most recently their Glo Minerals make up line. If you're looking for a new salon with a nice atmosphere and truly talented stylists, I highly recommend Salon Mackk.

I wasted 10 years of…read moremy life trusting them, and all of a sudden, when I thought to ask questions about a newer stylist (because my original stylist was busy until a later date) my questions about the new stylist's qualifications and education were met with angst and a defensive attitude from management. Same thing happened when I asked for the new stylist's recommendations for new hair care products for a color appointment...the management team thought it necessary to dismiss me as a client completely. Seek hair services elsewhere! (wish I could leave a zero star review)

I called back a second time and asked the receptionist to confirm the price of the extension - once again it was a $50 fee. so we show up for our appointment and we find out it's now $200 we asked to speak to the manager and explain our predicament - the manager started scolding me . I asked her if we could meet in the middle and split the cost therefore they don't lose money but we'd also don't pay for something we were missed quoted twice on.- the manager then said "this ain't no game show honey" and she continued to scold me.... She's very condescending and rude. I would think twice before going to her or her store for service.

This place is called Studio 10 on google. I went here today and they butchered my hair. The OWNER…read moredid my hair, Amy. It took me years to get my hair down to my butt. I asked them to keep my length as best as possible. She cut my hair by about 2-3 inches initially. I gave her photos and videos of my desired look. I even brought in my wig during my initial consultation. She said she could do it. It was suppose to be 95% ash blonde, almost looking white/silver with a slight pink undertone and the rest black. Only a quarter of the top of my head plus the bottom layer was meant to be black. She did the ENTIRE from of my bangs black and way tooooo much on the sides. Not only that but she didn't bleach my hair enough and it looked bright yellow. She never used a toner and then proceeded to but grey over it. My hair now looks slightly green and the black is all over. She also didn't use conditioner and used her hand to comb through my hair. I had to fight back tears while she "combed" through my hair. TWICE!! Once after the bleach and once after the color. I could feel her ripping my hair out and watched it fall to the floor from all the tearing and ripping. She asked if I wanted my hair layered and I said yes, she proceeded to cut an additional 6 inches off my length. I wanted to get out SOOOOO badly that I just said whatever at that point and wanted to go home. My head still hurts over 4 hours after leaving. It looks nothing like the picture and she cut my hair to my f*cking nips. It was originally down to my *ss when I got there. They were just 4 blocks from my house so I walked home crying the whole way back. I look soooooo UGLY!!!! I will never return and do NOT RECOMMEND!!!!!!! Spent $285 plus $50 tip cuz I was trying to be nice. NEVER AGAIN
