I just moved to the area from California, and I had my hair cut at another local salon. I decided to cut bangs into my hair, after about 3 years without them. I went to the other salon, and showed her several pictures of how I wanted my bangs to look. This particular stylist hacked my bangs. I mean, I could have done a better job myself. Nothing is worse than a hairstylist who clearly wants to be somewhere else when she is cutting your hair AND during the time when you are cutting in bangs after growing them out over a long period of time. So, after my bangs were chopped, I spent even more time on Yelp trying to find a salon who could help fix my bangs. Pure is close to my house, and the 5 star ratings cannot be ignored! I was able to get an appointment that day with Iasmina. She fixed my bangs in the best way she could and I was so thankful. She spent time with me looking at how they were cut, and she fixed some other issues with my haircut that I did not like. I am now a few weeks out from my appointment, and my bangs are growing in perfectly. They still are not exactly what I want, but they are so much better because of what Iasmina did with them. I scheduled my next appointment with her immediately. Front desk staff was super friendly (Becky!) and she gave me a tour of the salon when I came in. I have never experienced this before, and I thought it was such a nice touch. It is really clean and bright, and everyone is very friendly. I would highly recommend this salon. read more

I have been going to pure for years now and absolutely adore them. Everyone there is so kind and welcoming. I have only gotten haircuts as coloring isn't in my budget but they are always great at pure. read more

Ashley is awesome here! I came for a short, fun haircut and the salon was very welcoming and friendly even though it was my first time visiting. The ambiance is comfortable, and my hair feels very fresh after my cut. read more

I read the reviews of the salon and was confident that I would be getting a great cut. I have officially gotten the worst haircut that I have ever had with Rosie. I called and asked for someone who knows how to cut short fine hair. She does not! Hack job over the ears that looks beyond horrible. I'm so disappointed and upset. The only thing I can do is wait for my hair to grow out while wearing a hat. I would really think twice before booking with Rosie. And, yes I did show her pictures of what I wanted and did preface please do not cut over the ears, as I always wear my hair short. IT is not true that I said that I am never happy with my haircuts. I very clearly asked her to not cut over the ears. Either way doesn't really matter I WILL NOT RETURN. I will go to a professional place next time. Looking at my picture you can obviously tell that she does not know how to cut hair. This is an unacceptable cut! I seriously do not understand how you would think this is acceptable. And, no you guys never called me after I sent you a text with the photo. read more

Pure Salon - Notice the wonderful hack job around the ear. - Hair Salons Near Me - Arlington Heights, Illinois

I wrote a bad review previously because I was very upset with my hair. It's not even worth all the time I put into it. I still rate 1 star. read more

I'll preface this review by telling you, I haven't had a haircut in over a year. I rarely like hair salons, and even more rare is to find someone who can cut my hair exactly how I want it. I usually just trim the ends myself but I was going for a big chop this time, I requested an appointment online and that same day someone called me to schedule it. When I walked in it was so cute and cozy, they offered me a drink and took my coat. Savannah was my hair stylist and she was awesome! She listened to what I wanted, explained a few things while she was using them like the shampoo, conditioner, products. I went in a little nervous and left feeling great! I highly recommend coming in, the scalp and hand massage are worth the price of the haircut themselves! Also, Savannah is incredibly talented and sweet, so 10/10 in my books; I will be coming back! read more

I've been going to Pure Salon since they have opened. I am always happy with the color and cut they do. Not only are they professional and affordable, they are accommodating to my own picky preferences. They are definitely worth my hour drive! I've noticed a few bad reviews and I can't help to think maybe it has something to do more with the stress of COVID 19. They always reach out to the clients on yelp to address their concern. Thats real customer service! read more

Very nice salon! Fey did a really good job! Really like that they start off with a head massage and also condition your hands during the shampoo process. Definitely going back to this place! read more

Went in for a hair cut and the stylist did a hack job on my hair. Not worth the money.

Okay, let me just start with a few words: scalp AND hand massage with your hair cut! Make your appointment TODAY! Oh my goodness, that to me made the visit! I saw Dawn to reinvent my boring haircut and she did an amazing job! She gave me some suggestions after I told her what I was looking for and the cut and style turned out to be exactly what I pictured. I actually liked styling my hair this morning. I couldn't be happier! Ashley and Dawn are both extremely friendly and the salon is so welcoming. It truly was an experience from start to finish and no detail of their service was anything less than exceptional. I cannot wait for my next visit to Pure Salon! read more

Pure Salon in Arlington Heights is great, been going here and having my hair cut by Ashley for over a year now. Top notch service and the included scalp and hand massage touch is something I've never thought of before but once you get it done you'll never want to go anywhere else. Definitely a few cuts above the typical salon. The place is clean, bright, welcoming- would highly recommend. read more

I am from out of town and needed hair and make up for an event in Chicago. Rosy did an amazing job getting it the way I would like from my description and not knowing me! read more

Nice salon! Hair turned out awesome, but you will pay for it. Over $200 for a short pixie cut, color touch up and partial highlight. I paid it because I needed to update my look, unfortunately I can not afford the luxury pricing. read more

I had a great experience at the salon. Gloria did a great job on my cut. Pure Salon made it easy to switch from a barber shop to a salon. Thank you Gloria! read more

Thank you for a great experience! I've tried a number of local salons; most seem to be run like assembly lines, with a revolving staff at varied experience levels, mostly indifferent to the customer, and the chaotic atmosphere of a train station at rush hour. Pure Salon, happily, is different! I received a high-quality cut in a cozy, drama-free, welcoming environment. Dawn, the co-owner, was personable and professional, and knows a lot about hair! Several extra services are included gratis: aromatherapy, hand massage. Everyone on the staff is very friendly and welcoming. Products are available for purchase but no hard-sell. This salon also follows a "green" practice which is a definite plus. read more

Wonderful experience! Rosie did a beautiful job with the color and did exactly as I asked on my cut! I had hair damage and some hair loss from a medication I had been taking recently and she was able to put my fears at ease and still get an amazing result. Love that she only took off 1/2 inch and did not push her agenda on me like some stylist in the past who are scissor happy! Great experience! read more

I've been a client at Pure Salon for over 5 years and am always happy with the color and cuts I receive from the entire team. I'm treated like a family member and love coming here, so much that my entire family comes here now, too. The Pure Salon team has taken safety very seriously during this pandemic and I always feel safe when I visit. Highly recommend! read more

Love this place! When I walk in here I know that not only will I get the best hair coloring and cut but I will also be pampered. Ashley, Dawn and the rest of team do a great job of helping customers feel comfortable and get they best service. I look forward to my monthly visit! read more

This place is such a gem! From the moment you walk in, you're in a complete relaxing state of mind. Ashley's hair cuts are precise, detailed and absolutely perfect. They also use essential oils and do hand massages as an added treat. Highly recommend Pure Salon - you won't be disappointed! read more

I can say first hand that I have received the best service from Pure Salon compared to any salon I have ever been to. They make sure to listen to your needs and the salon in general is super clean. I would highly recommend coming here for color, cut, etc. read more

Pure Salon is awesome! I have never been disappointed in any of their services! You are immediately welcomed as soon as you walk in the door. I highly recommend the deep conditioning treatment if your scalp is on the drier side. Keep up the great work ladies! read more

After 2.5 years of searching for the right salon for me in the area, I finally found it. I got my haircut done by Magda today at Pure salon and it is gorgeous. She listened to everything I wanted. The woman at front desk was nice and friendly. This salon offers complimentary hand and scalp massage as part of hair cut which was nice. Place was very clean. read more

I am fairly new to the area and am working on finding a salon/ stylist whom meets my expectations. I ended up at Pure Salon after having a tragic color experience at another salon and needed fixing fast as I was leaving in a few days for a long trip. Pure Salon went above and beyond to squeeze me in for services to color correct. Due to the short amount of time available prior to my travel my hair was not perfect, but Pure Salon at least made me feel comfortable with my hair color. I will definitely be giving these girls another try after my hair has grown out some. Downside is parking can be limited depending on the time of day. There is two hour paid street parking and 3 hours free parking at the assigned areas in the Arlington station. Prices for salon are as expected. read more

I went to Pure Salon for a smoothing treatment and cut. Ashely was absolutely wonderful and explained the product she was using and how she customized it for my hair. I could easily tell that Ashely had vast amount of knowledge and experience with different treatments and hair products. I have priced out the treatment at a few different salons and Pure Salon was very comparable. AshIey was also very receptive to how picky I am with my hair and cut it just how I wanted! I am often hesitant to try new salons, especially getting a hair treatment that can take a few hours but I couldn't have asked for a better experience and even better results. Overall this was great experience and I will be making my next appointment here! read more

I found Pure on Yelp in my search to find a salon near my work. I live in the city and was tired of paying city prices for average service. I love that this salon is owned by two women who are passionate about what they do. I was looking to completely change my color and style...a big risk for a salon I hadn't been to. Ashley, one of the owners, did a fantastic job of capturing exactly what I wanted! She also was very conversational and easy to connect with. Already booked my next appointment! read more

Dawn runs a lovely salon and I'm quite happy with my beard trimming. The scalp, shoulder, and neck massage was a nice bonus. The price was very reasonable ($10), and the overall experience was downright pleasant. When I'm in need of coiffuring services in the future, this is where I'll be taking my business. read more

Great salon! Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. They go above and beyond with a scalp massage, hand massage and warm facial towel. Even on a simple mens haircut. Loved being able to use Pay at checkout. Highly recommended! read more

I have now been there three times. First time a cut, next was a blow out and the last time was for a cut and color. Love the salon - Dawn and Ashely are very welcoming and make your visit pleasant and relaxing. Love my hair and glad I found a new salon to call home. I even referred a friend and they sent me a handwritten thank you card (who does that anymore?!?) and told me to stop in for a lil gift. read more

Having just moved into the area, and preparing to start a new job, I needed a new salon. after a quick search I found Pure, and I am so glad that I did. When I first arrived for my haircut, Becky gave me a tour and explained how they do things in the salon, and offered me several options for beverages. She was wonderfully friendly and welcoming. Iasmina took me to her chair, listened to what I wanted for my cut, and gave a relaxing head and neck massage with aromatherapy oils to start. During the shampoo, she laid a warm scented towel over my hair and gave me a soothing hand massage. My haircut was exactly what I had asked for, and came out looking fantastic. Due to time limits, I wasn't able to do a cut and color at the same appointment, so I returned at a later date for the color service. I was welcomed by Emily this time, who was just as lovely as Becky had been at my first appointment. Iasmina again took excellent care of me, listening to my exact color desires, and finding a perfect balance that would work for my skin tone and based on the current state of my hair based on previous color outgrowth and overall length. She was professional, knowledgeable, and personable. And she made me look great! I could not be more please with my services so far, and I intend to return for future hair care needs. read more

I had a great experience with Victoria! She listened, knew exactly what I wanted, and seriously delivered! The environment itself is very relaxing, and the hot lavender towel was a great touch. I made my appointment the night before and was able to get in at the time I requested - I'll be back and would highly recommend! read more

Had such a great experience for my time here. I had never colored my hair before (I was very nervous to do this at a salon I had never been to before) but Iasmina did a wonderful job with my bayalage ombre. This will definitely be my go-to spot from now on! read more

Here you're treated like one of the gals. Dawn, the owner, is a professional, down to earth, and provides a great service. I love the quick scalp and shoulder massage pre haircut, and the hand massage during my hair wash. Friendly staff, clean and green facility. Love supporting this salon! read more

I made an appointment in advance for a root touch up and let them know I had 2 hours. I was quoted a price of $55-60. When I arrived the only real conversation I had with Magda was the fact she asked me about some partial foils on top. I told her she was the expert. I should have asked about cost - it was another $100 for a partial foil which came as a big surprise. I began to panic when I was left to sit alone for 30 minutes especially after the color timer went off twice. I was not able to get my hair styled. It was barely dry when I left - 20 minutes late. There was no consultation and no conversation. I was very disappointed in the whole experience. I would never return. The entire experience for a root touch up and blow dry which was what I had scheduled cost me $200. read more

I selected to go to Pure based on reviews and what I read on the web site and was extremely happy. I was looking to change my long kept chunky highlights to a more natural looking but with dimension look. Dawn was very helpful and listened to what I was trying to achieve. She made great suggestions and explained all. The color came out great! The cut looks really good too and will take a few appointments as I have lots of layers which need to grow more to even out but it was a step in right direction you can tell. I'm very pleased with the end result . I also like the atmosphere of a smaller intimate salon and was not difficult to get an evening appointment. I would say I have found my new hair place. read more

Hmmm, based on all the five star reviews I really wish I could have had my hair done here. Instead I showed up today for my eight am appointment for a cut and color and left with neither. When I called two weeks ago for my first appointment the woman on the phone asked what I wanted done and I told her a cut and color. She told me she'd put me in the system for a single process. Sounded good to me considering I am not a hair stylist. I went in today and was informed that since I previously had ombré in my hair, the ends would need to be repigmented before the color. The stylist told me she didn't have time to do that. So she went to the back to get the owner Ashley to see if she had time. Ashley came out and reiterated what the stylist had told me and then informed me that because another client was scheduled to get her hair done while mine was processing, I would need to wait an hour to even get my hair cut!! So not only could they not give me the color I had made my appointment for, I now needed to wait an hour just for a cut. I decided to pass. Seems to me with a new client you would try to put some effort into making an appointment work even if it slightly throws off the day. I'm not sure how I would be expected to know that I needed an additional treatment on my hair and to make a longer appointment, since again, I am not a stylist. The sad thing is, after this debacle, there wasn't even an attempt to make it right. What a horrible experience as a first time customer! read more

I just want to thank Ashley for the best haircut I've had in years, this salon is amazing!

The owners are some of the nicest and most professional women you will ever meet. They keep the salon very clean and welcoming. The employees are all friendly and helpful. Most important, they do great hair. I mostly go with Ashley and I have never been disappointed in a cut or color job. I have some skin allergies, and I've never had an issue with their products (which I now buy without any hard sell from them). I've been going here for about two years now and I'm still as happy as the first time. On a side note, I'm also really happy to support a woman owned business. read more

I had a great experience at Pure, the salon is beautiful and the ladies that work there are fabulous- very welcoming! Dawn knew exactly what I was looking for and I loved the finished look, cannot wait to make my next appointment. read more

I had been searching for a new salon and based on reviews decided to try Pure Salon. I was not disappointed. From the beginning when I called and scheduled my appointment I had great customer service. I called and explained my hair "issues" and the receptionist made sure my appointment was set up with the stylist who could best assist me. The staff and owners at Pure couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. I usually pass on any type of massage, but the scalp and hand massage was relaxing and just what I needed after a long day. Loved my finished look. Looking forward to going back in a few weeks. Highly recommend you give Pure Salon a try! read more

Be forewarned about lack of consistency. First time was a great cut. Last time was a total miss. Dawn spent a lot of time listening and cutting my hair the first time. The last time, she spent a mere fraction of the time she previously spent. The lack of attention showed and my hair looks nothing like it did before. Very disappointed. read more
