I chopped off my hair and started the natural hair journey where I avoided heat like the plague, did all the do's and none of the don'ts, but my hair wasn't thriving as it was supposed to. I tried a bunch of "natural/black hair salons" but nope! Then I stumbled upon Tannica and have been going to her every two weeks for a wash and style for the 2+ years. My hair has gotten healthier, longer and stronger. I walk out of there flipping my hair like Beyoncé and JLO combined!!! She is professional, friendly, respectful, and actually cares for the health of your hair. You can find free street parking 2 minutes away or park in the lot across the street for a couple of dollars. You want to go here!!! No regrets!

My boyfriend actually gasped in horror when I got home. I was flat out denied even a partial refund I can't stop crying every time I look at myself. It took me so long to save up to be able to do this and when I called the salon I was told it was my fault because of my hair texture and the original color of my hair. Was told I was going to get curtain bangs- I included a picture of how that turned out.

Introduce the legendary (drum rolls please)....Carolyn Marie Dudash!!…read more Carolyn did it! She now has her own space, and we, the loyal clients, have vowed to follow her wherever she goes. I found her as my go-to hair dresser while she was at Vanite in Boystown three (3) years ago. All I have to say is: she KNOWS hair, with a gigantic capital "K." My thick Asian hair looks better than ever because of her artistic touch. I'm an extreme minimalist when it comes hair. In other words, I don't put products on it; I don't really use special shampoo or conditioner; I simply blow-dry my hair usually if I have time (or leave it alone if time isn't on my side). However, Miss Carolyn takes care of me and I'm more than happy to see her every eight (8) weeks. "Carolyn Marie" is located inside Sola Salon, diagonally across from the CTA Paulina Brown Line station. Look for "suite #23." Check out her Instagram photos. She's an amazing colorist!

I am SO picky when it comes to my bob haircut and finding the perfect shade of blonde for the season. I'm always wanting to try something new, and Carolyn never ceases to amaze me. This lady knows hair! It's rare for me to say "I Trust You" when it comes to my hair, but I completely put all my trust in her! Her new space is so cute! And can we talk about the shampoo bowl? It's COMFORTABLE! Is that a thing?! It's cushioned and lowers to your height so that you don't get that little crick in your neck. Matched with the scalp massage and calming spa music? It's heaven! Carolyn Marie Hair is a must!

The REF products she uses and loves (and proudly now reps!) are incredible and she's so knowledgeable about whatever your hair needs or concerns are. An aesthetician is a girls best friend and one like Nicole is seriously invaluable. Do yourself a favor and make her your hair mainstay!

Ghita is the most fabulous hair professional I've ever had - and I've had some great ones. I've…read morealso had some scary ones... which is what makes Ghita even more of a find. She works out of an apartment building, but it is clean and fully outfitted with a salon dryer, vanity, hair washing sink, etc. Here are my top 4 reasons why I won't ever go to anyone else in Chicago. 1 - She listens to what you want, and works with you to figure out what will be best. We've all had those professionals who either have no opinion, or don't care about yours. Ghita is wonderfully balanced in this area. 2 - She doesn't get offended if you have a question about something. For example, I thought my bangs were a little long (I didn't want to have to come trim them every couple weeks), and she slowly trimmed them until they were as short as I could stand it. 3 - She is spectacularly affordable. Her prices vary depending on what you want, but it's always appropriate. Things that other salons routinely charged me $75-$85 for, she charges $40. 4 - She doesn't mind if you bring a bottle of wine. It might be worth asking on your first visit just to be sure you don't look like a total boozer, but I've definitely enjoyed a couple glasses while a friend waited for me (also indulging). I've had color, trims, and full-on haircuts (over 10-inches) from her. I have some male friends who have gotten highlights/cuts from her as well. Everyone loves what they come home with. One thing - I believe she is cash only. On the website there is a PayPal option, but if you plan to pay at the place of business I think you have to have cash.

I LOVE Ghita!! I met…read moreGhita back in 2007 at Sak's Fifth Avenue and I have followed her ever since and now that she has her private studio, I like it even more. It's a relaxing setting, you don't have all that noise you have to deal with at a busy salon. You can schedule appointments via text, which is so convinient and she is very accomodating around a busy schedule. She takes evening appointments which is perfect for someone with my schedule. As for technique, there is none I can compare with. I am fairly picky when it comes to hair, as she can attest too, and I have honestly not allowed a single person to touch me hair since 2007. After we had first met, I was in a crunch to get my hair done, and I tried someone else, and I called begging her to fix it before my trip home to Michigan, which she did. Learned my lesson right then and there. She's also applied color multiple times, and I have love it every time!! Strongly recommend anyone to go in and see her, you won't go anywhere else again! -William
