She is incredibly talented, professional, dependable, and always on time. Her communication is excellent--she is responsive, organized, and makes the entire experience easy from start to finish.

After all these years, the quality of her work has never changed. Every single time, she delivers. If you are looking for a braider who is talented, reliable, professional, and someone you can trust with your hair time and time again, Joyce is your girl. I recommend her every chance I get!

She lied and said she would mail her the refund and then sent a letter in the mail two months later stating that she would not refund her the money because she felt it was a good job. She then refused to answer the phone and had her coworker answer the phone instead and make excuses. This horrible level of customer service is outrageous and I will be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. I strongly oppose companies that allow their "managers" to show this level of disrespect. Mistakes happen and the outcome may not be to a customers liking. The proper response would have been to offer a fix or to refund at least part of the paid amount.

My hair is…read morehas become dry and unmanageable lately and I needed to get it looking sleek and chic for an event that night. Adrienne made sure I had a deep conditioner put on and then she trimmed, dried, and ironed my hair to silky perfection! But the best part is that she used a keratin treatment on my hair before ironing it. Not the BKT but a keratin product that you use each time you iron. It's amazing and they sell it at the salon. My hair looked incredible!!! Aside from the wonderful staff, I really liked the style of this intimate salon and it is super clean. There was a woman getting her nails done while I was there and her manicure was beautiful. Based on my experience I highly recommend this salon!

After recommendations from some friends who grew up in Western Springs, I decided to make an…read moreappointment at Dye Hard Salon with Susie. Since living in the Chicago area, I have had my hair done at a few different places, but have never been impressed enough to make any of these salons my "go to" spot. That is until today! I will definitely be returning to Dye Hard, as I am extremely happy with the services I received. First and foremost, making an appointment was effortless. I called on Tuesday and easily secured an appointment for Thursday. I even had an opportunity to speak with Susie, the stylist who was going to be taking care of me. That was cool as I had a chance to introduce myself, tell her how I heard about her, and share with her what I was looking to do at my appointment. So, I had my hair highlighted and trimmed. The color turned out gorgeous. I look sun-kissed and summer ready, without looking over processed. I explained to Susie that I wanted very thin, natural looking highlights. She gave me exactly what I wanted! I have had stylists do what THEY want with my hair, but Susie definitely delivered what I asked for. I also had my hair trimmed. Now, when I say trim, I mean trim! That's what I want, that's why I ask for it. I want the least amount of hair taken off. I can't tell you how many stylists I have had that have taken off inches of my hair, but not Susie! She cut a very small amount off the ends of my hair and kept my length! In my book, one of the greatest qualities a stylist can possess is the ability to listen. Susie listened to what I wanted and delivered with both the color and the cut. Cheers to that! Aside from Susie's skills as a hair stylist, she is also a very sweet person. I enjoyed myself from the time I sat in her chair to the time I exited the salon. She was personable and bubbly and we had a lot to talk about. Excellent hair styling skills paired with a great personality are the perfect ingredients for an amazing experience at a salon. Finally, I was impressed with the owner. He was working alongside Susie, coloring a client's hair. Too cool! An owner that knows his stuff. He also checked on me while I was waiting for my color to process and offered me a refreshment in addition to checking on my color. I like the whole "all hands on deck" vibe I got from Dye Hard, it made me feel like I was in good hands. So, to sum it all up. If you are looking for a salon that offers great service and knows their stuff, I would certainly give Dye Hard a try. If you are a city dweller, Western Springs is only a 30 minute drive and it is worth it! Did I mention that for a full head of highlights and a cut, my bill only came out to $120! I still can't believe that! What a steal for a job well done. If you want to pay out the BoOty for the ambience of a city salon with mediocre services, stick to where you are going. If you would like to venture outside the box and are looking to walk away looking and feeling like a million bucks, drive your patOotie to Western Springs! :)

Unfortunately, that is not what I received at all. The stylist spent more time talking, stopping, and getting distracted than actually focusing on the service I requested. Before leaving, I even addressed my concerns and showed the owner, Martha, exactly what I asked for versus what I got. Instead of trying to offer a solution or resolve the issue professionally, she immediately became defensive and started talking over me. I've been a customer for years, and the customer service is nowhere near what it used to be 5 years ago when I first started coming here. At some point, it feels like they became too comfortable doing what they want while still charging customers premium prices. I will not be returning because I'm not paying almost $400 for services that don't match the request or the quality expected.
