1 Star is for the $45.00 trim. Make sure you know exactly what color you want and show a picture of that color. For example dark blonde is at the discretion of the hair dresser who will say it is champagne and offer to douse your hair in toner. If you come back to try to discuss a plan to make it look dark blonde she may tell you that she feels no matter what she does she will never make you happy. read more

I took a chance and decided to try Salon Nine as it's closer to my home. I usually go to 59/119th. My hair was long and I had plenty of growth to get a stacked bob with a slight angle. I provided a picture. The picture had a length just below the jaw line. She cut the sides above my ear! Back is so short up to the crown! My hair looks NOTHING like I requested. Lesson learned! I won't switch from 59/119th again. I have never had a bad haircut by any stylist at 59/119th street. Salon 9 is nice but certainly not worth $45.00! Waste of time and money. Never again! I've never given a bad review but the cut I received today is just awful! read more

Super impressed with the salon and staff. Im here visiting my granddaughter from Florida. She has never had her hair cut and salon 9 was recommended by some my friends. We were greeted with a very friendly staff. They made my granddaughter feel very special even at the age of 5. Jenna was very patient and loving. My granddaughter Kylie walked out of the salon with a huge smile on her face! read more

See all

Most guys wouldn't think to go to a salon like this for a haircut, but they do a great and consistent job. Going for a haircut is actually a relaxing experience - the wash with head massage they give before every haircut is fantastic. No matter what's on my mind, this always puts me in a better mood. I usually see Ryan for haircuts and one thing I like about this place is the personal touch. Being a guy I generally go in for the same haircut regularly, and I don't have to say a word and my hair comes out great each time. I've noticed there's very little turnover in stylists, this is a good sign that they have good stylists with happy customers. Over the years I've probably had a cut from every stylist when my normal stylist isn't available and I always come out looking great. The ladies behind the front desk always are very polite, fun to chat with, and always offer a beverage and to take my coat. Yeah, I could probably go to one of those chain hair cutting places and get a hair cut by someone different every time, who's only looking to get me out of there as quickly as possible. I might even save a few dollars, but when it comes to haircare, you do get what you pay for. You can tell that the staff here really are passionate about their art and genuinely work to make you look your best when you walk out the door. I don't know much about ladies hair, but they always look great (and seem happy) when they leave. . Highly recommended. read more

Love Salon Nine! Such a warm and inviting salon. They didn't mind that I needed to bring my daughter to my appointment and were so sweet to her. Jenae is amazing- great cut and balayage!! Thank you Jenae!! read more

This is a no frills salon..it's very busy. You will find your stylist working on your hair and running to her other client finishing up their hair. I'm not used to that with other salons I have gone to. However, I really loved my haircut and style. I have fine, straight hair. She gave me a nice layered cut that is easy for me to style at home. My husband who was never crazy about my other haircuts, liked this haircut the best. So, I will go back. I already booked my next appointment. read more

I had just recently moved into Plainfield and a representative from the Chamber of Commerce stopped by and gave us a ton of coupons, one being for this salon for a free haircut. I had been procrastinating for a little but my hair had enough and it needed a cut badly. So I called and scheduled an appt for the same day and they had no issue fitting me in. I was a little hesitant on getting a specific cut I had been wanting for awhile but I went with my gut and did it. Samantha was my stylist and she did a phenomenal job! I have thick curly difficult hair and she managed to give me exactly what I wanted. She took her time and didn't rush the service. I happy to say I believe I've found my stylist/salon. Never going to anyone else again! read more

Salon Nine - Hair Salons Near Me - Plainfield, Illinois

When I first moved to Plainfield, I had no idea where to get my hair cut. We received a welcome basket from the Chamber of Commerce, and in it was a coupon for a free hair cut at Salon 9. At first, I was really skeptical. Free haircut- how good could that be? The stars must have aligned for me, though, because I was very fortunate to meet Dana, one of the stylists. She has been cutting my hair for over 2 years now, and I would recommend her to anyone! The rest of the staff is great, too- always friendly and accommodating. The only complaint I have is about the parking- it is a shared parking lot, and you have to park in the back and walk through a building and back outside to get to the front of the salon, which can be pretty darn cold in the winter. Definitely worth the trek, though. :) read more

A co-worker of mine recommended this place after commenting how nice her hair was. I was commuting 45 minutes to my hair salon and always wanting to find a place nearby. I called the day I wanted a cut with openings available. The salon was modern but also not overly crowded. Jennea was awesome and didn't take long with coloring and cutting. I was so pleased with the outcome and glad to have found a place I can trust with my hair. read more

The salon is beautiful. Very spacious and clean. Excellent customer focused staff. I was greeted immediately upon arriving by a very nice receptionist and asked if I would like a refreshment. Can't say that I am thrilled with my haircut though. I went in for a cut and style on December 10, 2014 with no real idea of what I wanted. I communicated that I wanted a change, wasn't afraid of a short cut and was open to anything. I expressed that I wanted body and something I could easily style. What I got was a trim with no layers, no depth. I was really disappointed as I was looking forward to leaving the salon with a terrific haircut. I exited looking exactly the same as I did walking in minus an inch of hair. The young stylist was sweet, but inexperienced and relunctant to take the lead. She just earned her chair which doesn't bother me, but I should have been told she was a new stylist. I know some individuals think that you have to tell a stylist exactly what you want, but that's not always the case. If given complete discretion, a great stylst should be confindent enough to take the lead and give you a cut that suits you based on feedback, hair type and the shape of your face. Overall, not impressed with Salon 9. $60 not well spent. I could of gotten the same cut at a Fantastic Sam's or some other chain salon. read more

I've been going here for three years. It's in a very convenient location for me and they always seem able to fit me in, so I haven't looked at other area salons, but I probably should. The stylists I've seen are okay, but really just "okay" for the price. Nothing to rave about and not a great deal. I feel like every time I go in, I leave underwhelmed. Also, the person who is the "face" of the business calls everyone "hun". Mostly it's the receptionist (Annika) who does this regularly. As cute as she thinks she is, it's annoying to have a fellow thirty-something call you "hun". The interior of the salon is really nicely, and fashionably decorated. It's also probably where most of their money goes. Another note on ambiance: They were doing a weird thing the last time I was in, where all of the stylists labeled their tools and styling products with their names, and it definitely knocked down the ambiance by making it look like a suburban beauty school. Just sayin'. I'll keep going there until I find something better, which might just mean going back to Mario Tricoci in Oak Brook. Yes, the MT stylist all have fake names, the prices are high, and it's a long haul from Joliet to Oak Brook, but I've never had better haircuts anywhere else. read more

Modern, high quality cuts for an unbelievable price. I am so thrilled with the work Jennea did on my hair. In my experience there are two types of stylists: ones who don't listen to what you want, and ones who listen but still have no intuition of what to do with hair. Jennea has the intuition AND the listening skills. The result is the best hair I could have imagined. I'm pumped. Thanks so much! I'll be back. read more

I went in today for some color help. My all-over copper red was grown out and my roots were screaming "HELP ME!" I wanted to go lighter and Jennae was a HUGE help. She was super nice and collaborative. She was confident and I left SO pleased. Everyone there was super nice and I can't wait to go back! read more

I absolutely love Salon 9! I've been getting my hair done here for almost a year now and no matter what style I've gone with, I've been thrilled with the outcome. I've had full bangs cut, side bangs cut, I've done color, I've done ombre, and Kaity does a fabulous job every time. Booking and rescheduling appointments is so easy, no one has ever given me a hard time about needing to change a day or time. The staff are all so friendly and knowledgeable, it's a really nice touch that they offer coffee and water during appointments. I've had my hair done at hair cut chains before and for the same price, those places often provided half the service that I receive at Salon 9. I was referred by a friend and have made two referrals to others myself. They are so appreciative of referrals that you and the person you sent to them receive a discount, not to mention the coupons I received when I was a new client, that is definitely going above and beyond and is so very appreciated. The salon is beautiful, the music is always fun, and the washroom is always clean. I couldn't be more happy this salon. Thank you all for your wonderful work! read more

I absolutely love Salon 9. The girl I go to is awesome! She always does an awesome job. The salon is beautiful. Its a little expensive but you really cant complain you get what you pay for! Love it!!!! read more

Most amazing cutting edge classy salon in town. Not one person there is not absolutely wonderful. Every time I walk in I feel welcomed and like I am the only one in the salon since my first visit I have felt like they are so qualified and they make me Look amazing every time I go in! Highly highly recommended! My business will only go to SALON 9! Wonderful staff doesn't make you feel like you're ever being judged like some other salons in the past. read more

I just left Salon 9. I do like the color and cut that I got but was blown away when I got the bill. It is a very pricy salon so if you are okay with paying 210.00 for a cut and color, go for it!. I wish they would have let me know during my consultation how much it was going to cost. I personally can't do that every 8 weeks. So my review: Nice Hair but Empty Pockets. read more

I have been going to Dana for years. I have never had a bad cut or color from her. In fact, I have never had a BETTER cut or color from anyone else. I have very long hair and am EXTREMELY particular. Dana tolerates my demands, and she does it with flare and a sense of humor. My entire family goes to this Salon, which includes my husband and three children and my mom. My daughter just cut her hair short after wearing it long for many years. She also got some highlights. Looked amazing. I recommend this salon to everyone I know simply because I know if they go see Dana, they will leave thrilled. The entire salon knows our names and greets us with professionalism and courtesy every time. They carry fabulous hair products (Prive, Morroccan Oil) and they send out coupons for their regular customers. They also post coupons on their Facebook page. I wouldn't trust my hair to anyone else, EVER. BTW - Ryan and Cherise have done an awesome job when Dana wasn't available. read more

I love going to this salon. My daughter and I are a big fan. My original stylist here is only doing hair one day a week so we have started going to Brandy and she is excellent. Will listen to what you want done with your hair and make suggestions but not be pushy. My daughter got her hair done here for prom by Brandy and it was beautiful!! It is $45 for a haircut when we go so I do look for coupons or try to snatch up a Groupon when I can but I will pay the price to go to the same person who I know will cut my hair right and is pleasant/gives great service. The salon has a friendly atmosphere and is neat & clean. read more

I had NO idea where to go to get my hair done when I moved here. On a whim, I looked up Salon 9 & decided to try it out. I absolutely LOVED my experience! They were able to get me in, in the same day. My stylist is Kaity. She is AMAZING! I won't go anywhere else! read more

I went here to get a cut,color, and style and was seriously disappointed. I have dark brown hair and wanted to lighten just a couple shades and came out with orange hair. I had a really important day coming up and told the stylist all about it while she worked on me... I haven't colored my hair in over 10 years and was really excited. I showed her a couple of pictures of what I wanted and she barely looked at them but I thought since she was the professional she understood what I was going for. After it was all said and done i had seriously bright orange hair. She kept telling me that it was fine and that I'm not used to a different color. She even had other stylists tell me how good it looked but when I got home everyone asked me why my hair was orange and I cried. I ended up having to box dye my hair that night because salon nine was closed sun and mon. And I had to speak at a conference on Tuesday morning. I wasn't so upset about the mistake in color, because that happens but I was absolutely furious that I trusted the stylist (Darby) and she let me walk out with orange hair even though she knew how important it was to me to have my hair done for Tuesday. Also, she was way over booked and worked on two other girls simultaneously. she had the assistant help color my hair and the assistant styled me too. I definitely didn't feel like a priority and it was DEFINITELY way over priced for the results that I had. I will never be back. read more

I recently moved and had to find a new salon which I was pretty bummed about to begin with. I thought I'd find a place between home and work so it would always be accomodating. I read these reviews and decided to schedule an appointment. They got me in right away and the prices and services on their menu were similar to the salon I previously went to in Woodridge. I went for my appointment and thought the salon was very nice, the staff was friendly, the stylist was too. He listened to what I had in mind and went to work. The color was just what I pictured, the cut was ok, not exactly what I wanted but I liked it. When I went up to the counter to pay, I was blown away! I am used to paying about $175 for my cut, color and style, my bill here was $202 WITH a $25 discount!!!! I almost fell over. I paid the bill and left in shock. I called later that day to find out what exactly I was charged for because I didn't get an receipt and she knew the haircut was $15 after the discount and the glaze was $25 but she had to get the stylist to explain the rest of the amount SHE charged me. He explained that because my roots were grown out (which they were a bit) and I was changing the color some, it was a multiple process which is what caused the charge to be high but, next time it won't be that bad because it will just be a touch up. So in other words...if I change a color or add a color, it's going to be over $200 again?! I didn't feel good about it. I won't be going back. I'd rather drive from New Lenox to Woodridge to my old salon! read more

I had a totally different experience at Salon 9. The stylist I saw never listened to anything I asked her to do. It was the worst haircut I've ever had. The color wasn't close to what I asked for. To top everything I sent an e:mail to the manager and today I got a call asking if I was keeping my next appointment. So, they don't listen to what the customer wants and they don't read e:mails. This is a very over priced salon with people who don't bother to listen. read more

I've been going for 3 years. Have have great cuts, so-so coloring. Can get quite expensive for color. Can be somewhat snobby.

Fantastic service, beautiful ambience, sweet employees. It really doesn't get any better. Since my hair girl moved I am on the hunt for someone who can really cut hair. My stylist (name escapes me but everyone was a doll) really knew her stuff and we laughed and joked the whole time about my experiences with bad hairstyles and her explaining what went wrong. She was so extremely knowledgeable and made me feel very comfortable. Not to mention the shampoo girl gave me such a great scalp massage I literally (and embarrassingly) fell asleep. My cousin recommended this place because she loves them too! read more

Brandy is awesome!! Hair color and cut is always on point. I usually come with a picture, and she gets it every time. Do not hesitate making an appointment with Salon 9. :) read more

I went in for a hair cut which was over due, I explained to the hairstylist to trim and with layers well that is not exactly what I got you can't even tell I have layers and she blow dried my hair and made it sooooo puffy. I really didn't like it also see thinned only the back of my hair not the sides which was so odd.... read more

New in town and the salon I was interested in going to was closed so I went to Salon nine.... A beautiful salon in a convenient location.... A bit pricey, even at half price... $70.00 regular price...(pricing is based on stylist).. cut and style were just okay, not bad, but not the best I ever had..... felt like the stylist didn't quite listen to what I wanted... Probably won't return.... read more

I received the worst haircut of my life!!!!!!!!!! I went in asking for a trim. I even had the girl show me how much she was taking off. It was about 2 inches. I have (had) hair down to the middle of my back. I wanted it to remain long. She started cutting and I told her I saw quite a bit of hair coming off. she just kept saying " relax it will be fine" she continued cutting as I saw inches and inches of my hair fall to the floor. I continued to voice that I thought too much hair was coming off and this is not what I wanted done with my hair. I have curly hair and I told her that with the layers this short my hair will look ridiculous. She just continued cutting. I was so upset at this point. When she was done, the length of my hair was a little past my shoulders. She took about 4 inches off the length. She ended up cutting about 8 inches off the shortest layer on my hair. She started blow drying it. It looked horrible. She had no idea what she was doing. It was frizzy. I honestly looked like I belonged on a really bad hair commercial. I told her I was done because I just wasn't happy with my hair. She wanted to start using a curling iron on it. I couldn't understand why she would want to use a curling iron on my hair because I have naturally curly hair. I have never even owned a curling iron. As I was leaving she wanted me to sit back down and straighten my hair. Again, I couldn't understand the point of this because I never straighten my hair. I just can't stand places like this that want to get creative with your hair when all you want it a simple haircut. I didn't want a brand new makeover. I absolutely hate my hair. It is going to take me MONTHS to grow it back. I would not recommend this place to anyone!!!!! read more
