    Livia did my hair for my sisters wedding (Marta M. on yelp). She asked what kind of style I wanted and then delivered something better than I have envisioned myself! It was exactly what I wanted but looked much better than I could have hoped for. I'm talking red carpet look!!!! I couldn't believe how fantastic the style turned out. I don't think there was a mirror I haven't checked myself out in, lol I felt incredible the entire night and even due to extreme dancing the hair held up and I didn't have to mess with it during reception. The style also looked very natural despite of multi rounds of hairspray. I wanted BIG volume and got just that! There is no doubt that Livia knows what she's doing. She is also extremely nice and fun. We were all chatting during hair and make up like we've known each other for years.

    Liv is a rockstar! She transformed my fine, lifeless hair into a full, volumous romantic 'do for my November wedding. I LOVED it and got numerous compliments on it during and after the wedding. My hair stayed in place perfectly for 14+ hours and held up incredibly well against the insane late fall winds we faced while taking pictures downtown. Livia was such so fun to hang out with on the morning of the wedding, was incredibly accomodating and made the timing work when I was 25 minutes late. (Yup, I set the alarm wrong on my blackberry the night before, woops!) She put me at ease and made me laugh, exactly the kind of person you want to be around when your nerves are going crazy :) I would highly recommend Livia. She really is the best in the biz and books up fast for a reason - contact her early!

    Livia is outstanding! Her attitude is relaxed, nice, low maintenance setup, and she does beautiful work that seems effortless to her because she's such a seasoned veteran with hair. Liv did my hair and 4 of my bridesmaids hair this past July. Everyone loved their hair, she was able to fulfill everyone's requests, and the hair stayed beautiful all night. I found Liv through her website, and I also went with the makeup person she suggested. It was important to me to have hair and makeup people who work well together. I'm so glad I did this because it does take a bit of coordination between hair and makeup when you're getting many people ready in a timely manner. In addition to her hair abilities, she went above and beyond her call of duty. She helped with a dress issue we had, she climbed a ladder to get my long veil down, she even closed up shop in my condo after all of us had left because we needed to hurry to get to the church. She was so willing to help and so reliable. I'm grateful for having found her. Her trial setup in her home is great, with easy parking. I will say the only thing I struggled with was the contract minimum. It would be so much easier if it wasn't required to pay for at least 6 people. I hope that changes sometime. Having worked through that difficulty, I'm so glad I used her and would absolutely use her again.

    I can't even describe how happy I was with my hair for my wedding. I had a trial with Livia and loved it but after the trial I decided to change the do a little. Day of Livia was on time and ready to work. She did 4 bridesmaids, my moms and my hair. When she finished with my hair I was in awe. Perfect vintage do! I got soooooo many compliments on my hair, everyone said I looked like a vinage movie star or someone out of a magazine, which naturally made me feel so good. I honestly didnt want to take it down. My mom who usually hates when the salon does her hair after a cut LOVED her big hair and bridesmaids expecially my sister were sooo happy and looked so beautiful. My sister also had a vintage-ish do and it was amazing. One of my bridesmaids had dread locks and Livia pinned them up soooooo stylishly! Everyone raved about our hair. Livia delivered much more than I expected and I honestly felt amazing because of her. I can't recommend her enough. My hair was beyond beautiful because of her. I wish I could have her do my hair all the time! HIGHLY recommend. This is money more than well spent. The compliments you'll receive will be worth it!

    I first met Livia when she did hair for a friend's wedding, for which I was the maid of honor. For that wedding, Livia effortlessly and professionally styled the hair of eight girls. She showed up at my house, this tiny thing with what seemed like not many supplies. But when she went to work, she did BEAUTIFUL work! We all got compliments on our hair at the wedding. When it came time for my own wedding, after checking on dates for our venue, family and wedding party, Livia was my next call. I literally confirmed her availability before I booked the wedding. That's how strongly I felt about working with her. I have had my hair "professionally" done before for other weddings and was less than thrilled. For both events that Livia did my hair, I loved it and it lasted all night. I have long, thick, heavy hair and she knows how to make the style last all night without a million pins. Livia is professional, responsive, on-time (if not, early), calm, fun, fast and simply the best that I have seen at her craft. Whether you want a formal updo, a strategically undone look or anything in between, Livia is the woman for the job. She listens to each girl and immediately knows what will look good on them and best complete their look. Her work is worth every penny. I unequivocally and enthusiastically recommend Livia Caporale as a hair stylist!

    Livia did my hair for my wedding day. The choice to use Livia was very last minute (my first hair trial was a disaster), and she was totally accommodating. I used hair extensions based on her suggestion and they looked unbelievably natural. She was so fun to work with and brought great positive energy to the stressful wedding day. I received so many compliments on my hair-it never looked better than it did on my wedding day! Thanks, Liv!!

    After I got engaged, I immediately was on the hunt for the best hair and makeup stylists. Everyone says, always hire the best photographer, because you have those pictures for life. But honestly, you better choose the best hair/makeup artists, cause if you look like crap, a talented photographer cant do anything about that! I booked Livia well over a year in advance of my wedding date... I'm a control freak, and I wanted nothing but the best. I had a trial elsewhere, and was disappointed. Continued hunting through every wedding blog and stalking random wedding pictures of facebook friends to see who they used, and Livia's name kept popping up. I emailed her and set up a trial. At my trial, even with all my indecisiveness, Livia was super warm, and friendly, and took her time with me to make sure we could come up with something for the wedding day. We didnt nail down the exact look, but I was more than excited to see that she just "got me" and could definitely do some magic with a head full of hair. I signed a contract that day. When I had pictures taken for my save-the-dates, I went back to livia to play around with some styles and have her style my hair for my photos later that day. I just love vendors that make you feel like your hanging out with your girlfriend. She's super professional, and sweet, but also has a great sense of humor and is so fun to be around. And having a hair stylist that you can just click with makes a world of difference with the craziness of the wedding day. Livia styled 10 heads of hair on my wedding day, and she made all of my girls and mothers look absolutely beautiful. I was so happy with the end result of what she did with my hair as well, it was like she could read my mind! If you want to be sure that you are happy and looking your best on your wedding day, contact Livia asap. she is truly amazing. im going to be doing a trash the dress photo shoot soon, and i will definitely be calling her up again to do my hair that day as well. you cant help but love getting your hair done by livia!

    I had 10 bridesmaids and Liv and her friend Ashley did our hair - they were an absolute blast to work with.

    Can't say enough of how great Lira and team are! First found Lira Guzi after a botched hair…read moreappointment with another salon and have never gone anywhere else. As someone with darker hair, I'm extremely particular about coloring my hair, and at LG I've always felt my hair is treated with extreme care and expertise. I no longer live in Chicago, but make special trips out just to have my hair done here! If you're looking for a salon in Chicago, look no further, u won't be disappointed!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Lira Hair Salon. I came in after a disastrous visit to a…read moreso‑called "blonde specialist" who completely ruined my hair while trying to take me from brunette to blonde. My hair was damaged, uneven, and honestly I was scared to try again. Lira changed everything. She not only helped me achieve the blonde I originally wanted, but she did it in a way that protected my hair and brought it back to life. My color looks beautiful, natural, and exactly how I envisioned it. Even better--my hair is actually growing back and feeling healthy again. Lira is truly a master of her craft. She listens, she cares, and she knows exactly what she's doing. If you're thinking about going blonde or need someone to fix a color gone wrong, she's the one you want in your corner. Absolutely worth every visit.
