This was my first time trying out the Hair HQ. I have been looking for a new stylist for awhile now…read moreand very happy where I landed. The staff are very personable, easy booking process and fun environment. I had a great experience with Kolbi. She brought my vision to life and took me from red to blonde just in time for my wedding!

Molly the Magician beyond exceeded my expectations!! My 14 yr old has been seeing the same stylist…read moreher entire life and now that he's unavailable we needed to find a new stylist. Up until this point, she's only trusted mom to handle any coloring..but after going dark indigo and then wanting to return to her natural blonde, I knew this battle back to beautiful would be WAY above my pay grade. We attempted to fix it at home, but couldn't overcome The Copper Monster that hides behind any shade of black! Late last night I begin searching for a color expert with enough experience to slay this beast! I came across Arizona Hair Co and was impressed by the 17-18-22 years of experience held by a majority of their colorists at my nearest location, so I decided to roll the dice and accept whichever expert was first available--This is where the hair gods intervened and delivered unto me...Mrs Molly W! She didn't have the edgy look and crazy hair color you'd expect to see on a master colorist(idk if that's an earned designation in the hair world and if so, who knows if she "earned" it or has it...but take my word for it, she's a master at her craft). She didn't do anything crazy or anything that you would be able to see by just looking at a picture of my daughter's hair, but that's exactly where the magic lies!!! She made my daughter look just like she's supposed to--that's what we had asked for when we showed up all brassy light auburn with blue black remnants leftover on freshly chemically treated porous overgrown hair (covered in dead ends)--yep!! Surprise Molly! We signed up for color correction and now we need a cut too!! So you thought you'd be able to see your 2nd client tonight, NOPE!!! You'll be rescheduling that, lol! But here's the thing-- we didn't ask for the cut. We would have been happy to just have the color fixed, but Molly's desire to get it right the first time wouldn't allow her to schedule a follow up appointment for the cut--she wanted to send my girl back to junior high tomorrow, feeling confident and looking her absolute best (she clearly remembers what it's like to be a 14 y/o girl). None of us expected this battle against the blue to take 4 hours. Mollys exceptional co-baddie color master ninja warrior(I didn't catch her name) discreetly ensured that Mollys schedule was cleared for the night without making us feel like a bother in the least bit which allowed her to stay focused on the fight! So after lightening (with another unexpected sneak attack by the copper monster), toning, re-coloring and an amazing cut--Molly returned my beautiful natural blonde baby to me!! But wait, there's more!! 1. My daughter LOVED Molly and felt 100% comfortable discussing what she wanted with her. This was magic in itself because my kid is the kid that tells mom and makes mom speak for her 2. Molly listened and really wanted to make sure she got the cut just right--and she did! As soon as we walked out the door my daughter said "THAT is my new hair person!! She's amazing!" 3. Molly never lied. She never promised success. She never guaranteed anything other than she'd do her best. She made sure we had a reasonable expectation of the potential outcome. I feel she underpromised and overdelivered--all hair professionals should have this skill. Molly is a true professional!! 4. This girl knows her craft! She's unbelievably knowledgeable and educational. It shows in the work she does and the way she does it..but also, just talk to her. She understands all the science and mathing when it comes to all things hair! 5. She's comfortable. This can't be learned but it's something all great hair professionals inHAIRantly need to be. She was easy to talk to and share all your secrets with, no judgement!! Or don't talk to her at all--either way, you'll feel comfortable. AND FINALLY--TRUST THE PROCESS!! Your girl Molly's got you covered!!

I've been coming to this salon for the past year and a half, but after this experience, I won't be…read morereturning. The two stylists I normally see were unavailable -- one on maternity leave and the other gone -- which I completely understand. However, this salon constantly rotates new stylists in and out, so walking in never really feels consistent. If you know, you know. I booked detailed appointments for both my mother and myself, clearly explaining exactly what we needed. I specifically scheduled time for a calico root refresh -- not an all-over color. When I arrived and started discussing the plan, I was told she didn't have enough time because the system showed me down for a basic all-over color. That made zero sense considering how specific I was when booking. Instead of taking ownership of the mistake, I was told someone must have booked it wrong. The solution offered? I could wait one to two hours and have another stylist finish it. No thank you. What really pushed this from "mistake" to "never again" was finding out the conflicting appointment she had was to get her own hair done. So my appointment -- that I scheduled properly and showed up on time for -- was essentially secondary. (my mom was getting her hair done so that's how I found out about this scheduling mistake being she really wanted her hair done) I wasn't even planning to leave a review because I usually don't waste time on places I just quietly stop supporting. But the lack of organization, accountability, and basic client respect is something others should be aware of. If you value consistency, professionalism, and your time, I would strongly reconsider booking here

Not only did Lisa fix what the previous one got wrong, but she gave me the best hair cut and color I've ever had. I've been coming here for some time now and every single time I leave feeling like a million bucks. With little effort, I can tell Lisa what I'm looking for and she puts together a plan and executes it immaculately. I am always blown away by her use of color and the way she cuts my hair. Also - I've never had a blow out as good as I've had when I come to Gemini of Chicago. I've had the privilege of working with a few of her assistants as well and each one is so kind and professional and it's clear they get some excellent training from the owners. The salon is always clean and welcoming. I recommend this place to everyone!

I am writing on behalf of my wife. She has Alzheimer's--fortunately not as horrible as the version…read morethat killed her mother and her younger sister. But enough to generate some complications. She has been going to the "the best hair Solon in Peoria" for a long time and almost always Lisa is the stylist who sees her. Almost always Stephanie is the receptionist who handles our appointments. I have two observations to share: 1. Her hair looks beautiful after every visit. She loves it. I love it. That's worth the trip in itself. But there is more. 2. She is treated with sensitivity and love. It is more than customer care; it is human caring and understanding and patience. There is no fee that can buy that. It comes from another motivation. If you want quality of service that is packaged with character, look no further. I will never take her anywhere else. How can you beat the best? The service at Gemini of Chicago is one of the best bargains in all of Peoria. Gratefully, Al Bell, Peoria, AZ

I finally - FINALLY - found my stylist. I booked with Jenny for highlights and a cut. I liked that…read moreJenny asked for info in advance; I sent an inspiration pic to her and described what I was looking for. So by the time I got to the salon she was prepared. She worked so quickly, and we talked and in no time I was processing. I was stunned- my color is amazing! I've never had such natural-looking highlights. The salon is clean with a modern and comfortable vibe. It's not overdone like so many places. If you're looking for a stylist who is highly skilled in the craft, look no further! If Jenny is an indication of the talent who work here, I wouldn't hesitate to book your next appointment here. I know I will become a regular! Thanks, Jenny for the cool new 'do!
