Need a new hairstylist? Schedule with Sarah - you won't regret it. Sarah's helped me grow out a pixie cut, rock a bob and, now, grow my hair long so I can let my natural wave flow in the summer. Sarah's approach is personable and attentive. You'll instantly feel at ease. She has a hands on approach and teaches you how to style your hair. I'm low maintenance so I gladly take any tips or tricks she offers. I can't tell you how many compliments I have received on my hair after Sarah worked her magic on my mane. After three years of cutting of my hair, I can't imagine going to anyone else! read more

All I can say is WOW!! From the moment I walked in I was amazed! From the gorgeous decor to friendly staff, everything was perfect! I moved to Chicago in September and have been looking for a hair salon for a long time! This is the longest I have gone between hair cuts ever and my hair was in dire need of some serious help! I met Sandra, and she was so sweet! She asked what I was wanting to do and she made it happen! She is seriously a miracle worker! She even went above and beyond and gave me some tips about curling my hair which was so helpful! If you are looking for a new hairstylist I would highly recommend her! Can't wait to come back in a few months! read more

Molly did a FANTASTIC job on my hair. Her attention to detail completely transformed my look. I appreciated that she took time in the beginning to consult me on what would be most flattering for my particular hair. I have fine hair and have struggled to find a stylist who knew how to work with it. Molly answered all of my questions thoroughly and explained each step and what products she used to help my hair be it's best. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Tracy did an amazing job on my hair. She explained what she was doing, the products she was using, how they work, how to properly style my hair and simple ways to have results without all the style time. I didn't realize how damaged my hair was or that the products I was using were damaging my hair. I bought every product she used on my hair and I am so very please! She is a professional and worth every dollar. Thanks a lot! I will be returning. I also saw Sheri for my brows, she barely touched them so at least I had good brows! :) read more

PATRICK is AMAZING!! I went in with grey roots showing after my unnatural looking attempt to regain my God given copper/red with at home hair color. I've had my hair colored by other stylists before but it never looked right either due to colors used or the application method or both. I can't believe how truly natural it looks! He also took the bulk out of my thick wavy hair and I can now style it or air dry it - miracle #2!! The salon itself is hip, friendly staffed, has great product lines and a cool, chill vibe. read more

I was recently contacted Mane Salon informing management had changed and they wanted to see if I would give it another try...thank goodness I did because the salon is awesome. Colleen was such a pleasure to deal with and went above and beyond to book me with a cut and color on a Saturday with less than a two weeks notice. Dani was my stylist and she is amazing. I`m extremely picky with my hair and it's not easy to style. It turned out exactly how I wanted it and she even taught me tricks of the trade, so I could style it at home. Although my first experience was a little rocky, Mane Salon is my new place and I`m so grateful they reached out! read more

Great place. Lovely ambiance. Don't expect anyone to tell you any detailed information on what exactly was done or what was applied to your hair. It's a secret, so then you're stuck paying extra money for someone else to figure it out or trapped into going back to spend more money for touch ups :(. read more

Tiffany did my hair cut . She listened to what I wanted and thoroughly explained the hair cut and how it would achieve the volume i wanted. She did the same for the products used and i was sold on kevin murphy which they only sell in salons. Lol anyways, she was easy to talk to and will definitely go back. The ambience was rustic and chic! They offer tea, coffee and water! Definitely book your appt :) read more

Saturday was my first experience at Mane Salon. This review is worth five stars due to my wonderful stylist, Chantelle. She is not only a delight to talk to, she knows hair really well, listened to my requests and exceeded well above my expectations! I am a natural strawberry blonde and came in for a partial highlight and cut. The appointment took three hours and I highly recommend getting the protective treatments when getting hair colored. Chantelle advised me on how the treatment helps the natural bonding of hair and I cannot be more happy on how fresh, replenished and light weight my hair feels (and looks) today! I already am excited for my next appointment with Chantelle due to her professionalism and bubbly personality. When my hair was done with styling I received multiple compliments at the front desk when I was paying for my services. I even purchased an every day purple shampoo and conditioner for blondes by R+Co and recommended these products as well! Overall, Chantelle told me she has been doing hair for 9 years and I fell in love with her work on Instagram that I couldn't wait for my appointment. I promise she does not disappoint! The services are worth the money, especially when you want your hair cut and colored in a correct fashion. read more

Sarah Davis at Mane Salon is TRULY AMAZING!!! The service the minute you enter the salon is dynamite & has such a cool atmosphere - it is just artsy and fun. To be honest, I received the best cut EVER & not only do I receive compliments on it daily, Sarah showed me how to create the look on my own. It was just great that she gets to know her clients so well to have their hairstyle reflect our look. I can't recommend her enough! I have curly hair and it is hard to find a great stylist for that - but I finally have & it's SUCH a sigh of relief! Her personality is the sweetest and the experience of it all was the best. Thank You so much, Sarah!!!! read more

Sandra gave me the balayage no other salon could. She has such amazing technique. I asked for a cool toned blonde balayage and she delivered! It has multiple dimensions and ZERO brassiness. Besides the amazing color, I'm amazed by the health of my hair! It's so soft! She knows what's she's doing. She's super sweet and lovely too. Highly recommend! read more

This salon is great! I'm actually super picky when it comes to the salon experience as well as stylists. I'm sure I'm not alone. I used to have stylists on the east coast that I loved but I moved to Chicago 3 years ago so it was time to stop pretending that a 2 hour flight was reasonable to get my hair done. Dani has been doing my hair the past few times and does two things that I love; first, she listens to what I want, and second if she has an opinion she will bring it up, and then we'll decide together and then she'll execute on what we decide. Seems like a simple thing but it really isn't! Her technique is beautiful and cuts and color have all turned out well. She does a nice balayage and babylight to keep my blonde looking fresh and natural. Finally, I have to give a shout out to the front desk. They really have been amazing in working me in to fit my schedule, sometimes even on the same day! They are absolutely lovely and accommodating, and I've never had to wait much when I go in so clearly they are scheduling correctly which is a problem many salons have. read more

I've used Sarah Davis twice now for "special occasion" stying. It was a great experience both times!

Pictures included !!!! I have been getting my hair professionally for years. I had the most beautiful balayage few months ago in California, where I used to live. it was so natural blended beautifully the color has no orange / brassy tint to it at all. I used to get compliments on it all the time. However after 6 months I needed some change I came to this place after I was looking for place to go since I am new in town, I read the reviews on here.This is one of the worst hair color experience I ever had if not the worst. I came here for a Balayage, I brought a picture of the color I wanted with me I showed it to the stylist who did my hair, so she can have a clear idea of what I want. I left with a streaky, blotchy orange hair. I have been told they gonna call me to come fix it that was almost a month ago I called them 2X with no luck. I paid $$$$$ for a hair color that wasn't done correctly. Its not worth it! read more

Sarah Davis is a great stylist! I have fine hair, and Sarah always makes it look full. In her consultations, she helps me learn what type of cut I want, even when I don't know it myself!

Long story short. Only worth to see Galina if you're going blonde. When I first decided to dye my hair  (it was very long and virgin) I researched a lot of salons and hair stylists in Chicago area and was ready to pay as much as was needed just to get what I wanted and be sure that my hair won't be damaged. So when I found Galina I was unbelievable happy and she did a great job dying my hair blonde. Onee year later I finally was ready to dye my hair in color that I was dreaming of for a long long time - bright copper red. I asked Galina so many questions as I never did it before and still was unsure if I should and how to take care of my new hair and also I trusted her and could never even think she would not warn me about something that was important and I had to know. By the way my biggest concern was how long would the color stay for. Galina answered my question saying I don't have to worry, it's not gonna wash out soon, but she did tell me I will have to come in for touch ups every 7 weeks and I agreed and was so excited. Well the color came out not even close to red but because Galina told me that I could come back later to get it brighter I just paid what I supposed to($250), gave her 50% tip and left. In one week I came back and the color came out as I wanted to. I was so happy. For 3 days. It's washed out. Totally. I was  blonde, but not like nice blonde, it was yellow blonde. I tried to reach out to her but she won't even answer  (of course she already got the money ) until I reached out to the salon and they offered me third time for free in very mean manner and only times that I couldn't make. So the manager spoke to me saying how my hair looked beautiful and told me to enjoy the color and come back when I am comfortable to spend that amount of money again. She also said that Galina definitely told me that the color will wash out very soon because of how blonde I was. OMG, this is just ridiculous, I asked her maybe 10 times how fast would it last for and she knows I did. In the end I did not even wanted to say anything. Of course will never be back. read more

Kelsey Shomidie - the last ombre you did to my hair keeps getting better and better... Not sure how many weeks it's been but the dimension and depth are becoming more complex as it grows!

payton Is the only person I will ever let touch my hair. She is so gifted in what she does, she was born to cut and style hair. she Is kind, compassionate, and actually cares about what you have to say. I cannot say enough about this girl! Book her while she still has openings! read more

I have been following Mallory Seisser for six years as she progressed from salon to salon. Normally I am all about convenience and going to the closest salon to my home, but for Mallory I am willing to travel to get the best. She is young, smart, and intensely dedicated to the art and science of hair styling and color. Mallory is an educator in her field and it shows, especially in the cuts and coloring. In fact, she devised a unique "no bleach" formula to subtlety blend my grey hair with blond so the outgrow is not at all noticeable. I have gotten so many compliments on this color. And I love Mane Salon, the managers Colleen and Rachel are so warm and helpful and organized. This is the best salon, and the best stylist Mallory I have ever visited in my many years of seeking nice looking hair! read more

So I think the other person that reviewed galina is correct. If your hair is not blonde then save your money. The first time I met with her I waited for an hour past my time cause she claimed another customer was giving her a hard time not liking the work she had done. I missed a concert I had paid for because of this. I went back to her even though I had missed my concert thinking we were going to get to lighter hair because of the pics on yelp but here we are and My hair is dry and crispy and brown. Let me tell you if she would have made me blonde with crispy hair maybe worth it but no. My hair is still brown. When I told her I wanted blonder pieces this time she told me she didn't think we should do blonder. Then she dyed my hair all brown again even the pieces that were a little lighter(not blonde). It didn't make sense to me to make it brown all over again to then bleach my hair again. My hair looks and feels worse than when I started going to her. She at the end of the appt asked me how I liked the brown. This is a woman that doesn't like to be told that you don't like it. How can I like something when I never said hey put more brown in my hair. I'm done. The worst is when I hate my hair and I still give them a big tip. Out of embarrassment for not tipping but I should have saved my tip money for the next hair dresser that has to fix my hair. If you have brown hair and you think she is going to make you blonde she is not. Save your money. read more

I went to Mane yesterday to get my hair cut and colored and 1: I absolutely love it. I was unsure at first what I wanted, and Rae literally read my mind. She was so sweet and very personable.

I have been trying to find a salon and stylist I could trust for quite a while now. When I walked into Mane Salon the staff was super friendly and the interior was very cozy and chic. Mary Rose did a color, cut and deep conditioning treatment and I walked out feeling like a million bucks. She explained everything she did and helped me make decisions about what to do to make my hair healthy and bring it back to life. She is so kind and not only did I leave with great hair, I left having made a new friend. read more

Mane has beautiful vibes and offered me a wonderful experience with one exception. My cut was great and I had the best experience with Tiffany! She gave me the best massage and shampoo and made sure I was happy every step of the way. The environment was mostly very welcoming and I loved the decor. The one experience I had an annoyance with was the reception. When I called we had trouble understanding each other. She thought I was calling for someone when my first question was if they had any openings for a hair cut. But that wasn't big deal of course. I made an appointment to come in in 20 minutes. They have a policy to keep my credit card on file in case I was a no show. Which I understood but because I had my hands tied at the moment she let me bypass giving her the card since I was coming in so soon. I had a lot of trouble finding parking in the area which made me run late- I called when I was 2 minutes late (appointment was at 12:15 I called at 12:17 to let her know I was having trouble finding any parking). When I arrived she was pleasant until when I apologized for being a bit late she pointedly told me "yeah I told you there was going to be trouble parking" she never did tell me anything of the sort. It left me feeling guilty for being late even though my hair dresser was still On her previous client. I wanted to leave with the annoyances but stayed and ended up being happy with the haircut. On checkout I paid and declined to make another appointment at that time. But she still asked to have my card back to keep it on file. I said I wasn't comfortable having my card on file especially since I didn't want to make another appointment at the time. She told me it was for cancellation reasons in case I cancel in the future. Why would they need my card if I wasn't making another appointment? I told her once again I was not comfortable with it and next time I do decide to come in I will give her my card info in case I do cancel in the hypothetical future. This apparently was not acceptable and we clearly had an issue with one another. If this is a policy at Mane that they NEED to have my card on file for a one time hair cut then it makes me feel very uneasy. I have been a victim of theft and it is my right no refuse to have my card on file for no reason. I really loved Tiffany and would want to come back for her but after all the hassle I don't know if I will be back. Beautiful salon, great hair stylists, pricey 85 for a hair cut but the policy they have regarding cards and the way it was explained to me was very annoying. I did have to give them my card info to leave the salon. So instead of being happy with my cut I am just annoyed. read more

Sarah Davis is the best! I have curly thick wavy hair and Sarah's attention to detail help the shaping, which to me is the most important thing. I don't brush my hair, so the only time it sees a comb is when it gets a cut. Many stylists can't seem to make it look the way I want, but Sarah actually listens and asks for the feedback during and after the cut. I met her while she was at her former salon, and have followed her to Mane. If you're looking for a new stylist for a men's cut in the west loop-west-town area, make an appointment with Sarah & you won't be disappointed! read more

I don't have time to write a thousand word review about a blowout, but suffice it to say that a personality clash along with an inability to do my hair the way I specifically asked for caused this review. I'm sure I'm going to get some combative response like the one below on the one star review (the salon's comment was three times as long as the actual review) and I don't care. This salon is crowded, it's busy and noisy. Don't come here for a laid back time. My stylist became combative when I became increasingly unhappy with how my blowout was going. If you read my reviews you will see I have had a thousand blowouts, I know what I want, I know how to explain it (with pictures!) and I expect to get it. That didn't happen here. I went to talk to the manager about the situation and how I felt Danni treated me and while the manager was very kind you can tell they have zero desire to hear anything but 'this place is so great!' I'm sure it is, but it wasn't for me and that's my opinion. I would never go back, the products they use to wash hair (R+Co) are not great (and really not for my hair), the stylist was combative from the time I voiced displeasure and it was a crappy experience. You can tell with all their five stars they do NOT appreciate anything less. That's not an attitude that's going to fix anything here so I'll just leave my review and never go back. read more

Mane Salon is absolutely amazing. Not only is the level of work done in the salon absolutely incredible, the environment is SO calming and happy. GOOD VIBES. It is my favorite haven to go to- I always have fun, have a good conversation, and my hair looks THE best it has ever looked. The at Mane aesthetic is soft, healthy, gorgeously natural hair- highly skilled hair stylists work here, the best of the best. I've seen Nico for years. She always knows how to make me feel special. Nico is truly wonderful at listening to what I need and translating it in a way that suits ME best. She is intuitive and edgy; her cuts and color are blended and flawless. Thank you, Mane Salon, and Nico! You've made me look and feel my absolute best!!! read more

Was waiting for my GF to finish up, and could not believe what I overheard: the front desk girl (Colleen?) was going absolutely ham on a client over the telephone. Sounded like a dispute about charging for a missed appointment, but it ended with the receptionist slamming the phone down on the client. I'm always astonished when people in the service industry disrespect / argue with customers. Not sure who else overheard it, but sounds like they might have lost some clients this morning! read more

When you are looking for a new hair stylist, sometimes it's like playing the lottery. And if that is the case, I won big! :) For over a year now, I have been getting my hair cut by Jesse at Mane Salon. I have very long hair that can be complex. It is fine, yet coarse and wavy but there is a lot of it! Jesse is an artist- he gives me layers that fall perfectly and blend so well - I feel like I never have a bad hair day. He is meticulous, and each time he cuts my hair, he is very attentive to all of the details- trying to make sure that I am happy, while also using his expertise to get the cut just right. He is obviously a master of his craft, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great cut! I must also tell you about Sheri Cox, or as I like to call her "My eyebrow guru." Sheri took my eyebrows from fine to face enhancing! It does require a bit of patience, but my brows are now fuller, and to be honest it was much easier than I expected to get to a place where I have no makeup on and I just love the way my eyebrows look. Trust her. She is REALLY good at knowing exactly what your brows should look like, and then she will make them look that way. And then there is Nico. Nico did the Bayalage on my hair back in October, and she took such care to make sure that my hair looks sun-kissed and totally natural. She takes such great care of all of her customers too. I can't say enough wonderful things about Mane Salon! read more

Wish this salon was close to where I live. Went here because I had a wedding in the area and needed to get my hair done. Mallory did my hair perfectly. Loved the way she was able to get those waves to stay the whole night in my hair! She advised me on some shampoo and conditioner that will help with my dry scalp as well. Loved the whole experience and she made me feel beautiful when I really needed it! The hot towel conditioning was awesome as well! read more

I recently got a haircut from Jesse. His background in architecture and design are evident in his career as a stylist. He has a great attention to detail, taking my jawline and collarbone into consideration to determine the length and angle to cut my hair. He is innovative while remaining pragmatic about how his clients will recreate their desired appearance once leaving the salon. In a sense, I got the impression he wants to create something beautiful while remaining functional, a level of thoughtfulness I admire and you'll appreciate. Jesse's confidence in his work is clear, yet he remained approachable and gracious. His proficiency is most aptly displayed in his ability to explain his approach to my haircut in a way I left feeling more knowledgeable and confident. In a major city, densely populated with limitless options, Jesse truly sets himself apart from his competitors. He is a zealous and accomplished stylist with an aptitude matched by an even higher degree of dedication to his craft. read more

Sheri is the best in the business for eyebrow shaping. I agree wholeheartedly with other reviewers that it was love at first pluck! I feel that Sheri truly cares about my facial hair more than I do. She spends great time perfecting the arch of a brow, while offering tips on between appointment maintenance. Sheri is very friendly and I will happily follow her to the ends of the earth for an eyebrow fix! Jesse is my go-to for the best hair cuts I've ever had. I have naturally curly hair and find that I can't go to just anyone for a cut. I greatly appreciated that Jesse took time to find out what my daily routine is, and what I wanted with my cut. That showed me that Jesse is passionate about what he does and truly wanted to make me happy. I was very happy to find both Jesse and Sheri and Mane is my salon for life! read more
