I went in for a haircut and asked for 3 inches off and they probably took 6 :( I forgot to wear my contacts so I had the lady show me 3 inches before taking off my glasses. I'm very sad with how much was taken off. I'm attaching pics from just a few days before the haircut for reference. read more

Came here for a haircut during the polar vortex. Veronica is so sweet and offers great cuts at reasonable prices. I showed her a TikTok video and the haircut came out so flowy and healthy. This place is cash only but you can get cash at the pnc on the same block. I will definitely be back for my next one. read more

This place is a gem. A family owned business that cares about you and your hair. I have curly hair so it's really hard to keep it tamed, but they did such an amazing job. I feel like a whole new person. The people there really know what they are talking about when it comes to hair and they use amazing products that keep your hair sleek but natural. The vibe inside is welcoming and chic & the artists doing your hair are charming and friendly. I would totally recommend giving them a try! read more

Great salon. My daughter In-law and I visited on Saturday for a touchup for myself and a quick haircut. We both were so pleased of how nice our hair cut and style looked, took pics . We will most definitely go back again. I scheduled an appointment for two months from now so that I can keep up with this wild /crazy curly hair. It was a lovely experience and it was very affordable I definitely will be back in 2 months. Here's a clip of what they did to my hair. read more

A small mom and daughter owned and run business in a well maintained but not fancy salon. Veronica and Jeannette have been cutting and coloring my hair for over 10 years. They are very friendly, honest, and great at what they do. It's usually easy to get an appointment and the prices are reasonable. They are versatile and great with little kid cuts, quick guy trims, crazy multi-color teen designs, special event styling, and coloring my grays! read more

Veronica and the team at STUDIO I*90 team SAVED MY HAIR after it was destroyed by an overpriced, "brand name" salon that was big on pushing product and short on expertise. When I left, the owner still didn't know my name. And I was going bald!! ( I needed help!) Despite its amazing Bucktown location, Studio I90 is the antithesis of the trendy, hipster hair salons that open and close every six months. STUDIO Owner Veronica really knows ( and cares) about hair; the art, the craft and the science of it.. She's known as a "fixer," and has successfully been running her shop at this location for more than 10 years, building a loyal clientele for more 20 years. 10 stars to this establishment! read more

Yay so happy to find this place! I live in Lincoln Park so I keep going to the place next door to my house but today they were totally booked. I found this place on Yelp but I was hesitating to go for my root touch up & toning since I ve never been here before. But I am so happy I chose them. Warm cozy salon run by sweet mother & talented daughter. Service was amazing! I am happy with my hair, super shiny and color turned out amazing aaaannd I did not have to pay tons of money. Prices are great! Cherry on top =) Highly recommend! read more

Veronica is awesome! I searched for a new hair stylist when my stylist moved. I found Studio 1-90 based on Yelp reviews. I was very impressed. Veronica is one of the BEST hair stylists I've ever had! She listens and knew exactly what I wanted. She knows how to cut and style long hair. I am extremely impressed. I recommend her highly! read more

Wonderful service and very knowledgeable colorist. So very happy!!! I will be a client for life!

I've been here three times since moving to the city back in August and every single time I'm happy with my hair when I leave. They will listen to what you want, and they ask questions to make sure they know what you're looking to do to your hair before they start cutting. The atmosphere is very friendly and open, for sure. Pricing is incredibly reasonable for the quality you're being given; $25(for men's cuts, not sure about other pricing). All in all, I've only had good experiences here and I'm happy I found my go-to place! read more

I made an appointment the day before. I arrived a 5 mins early and sat down to wait for a stylist. This seems to be a popular hair place for men. It was a Thursday and I don't remember what the deal for that day was. They do have deals on Monday and Tuesdays ($45 color and free hair cut) and Wednesdays ($15 hair cuts). I paid $18 + tip. The space is not a fancy spa....it is a basic hair salon with one hair sink. Frequent phone calls to the salon interrupt the time the stylist spends with you, but they return right away. I really like my hair cut and I think they did a great job. You need to remember two things: 1. Bring cash (they do not accept credit cards, but there is a bank just across the street) 2. This is a what you see is what you get kind of place. No frills, so get over it. It is well worth the money and right in my neighborhood. read more

Found this place thanks to the yelp reviews - and love it. I have long hair and have had too many experiences where my hair stylist cuts off too much. Here the stylists truly appreciate how hard it is to grow long hair and cut off exactly what I ask for - all for an incredibly good price of $25. Highly recommend this place! read more

Isabella is fantastic. I have long hair with layers. Before Studio I-90, just about every time I would get my hair cut, the layers would be uneven. But Isabella does a great job with layers and with my bangs. She's also great at making sure she knows EXACTLY what you want for that particular cut. You can't beat the service or the price. Studio I-90 is definitely a great choice! read more

Overbooked & rushed job = hysterical 6 year old. My husband & I have been going here for several years for cuts and color (me) and they've done a fine job in the past. Not today, however. My husband made an appointment for him & our 6 year old daughter. After they arrived several other people showed up - a walk-in and another family who had an appointment for the same time. So the woman seemed flustered and rushed. He asked that my daughters hair be cut so that it's below the shoulders. She cut it ABOVE the shoulders. And of course 6 year olds are REALLY good at rolling with things. She's been hysterical ever since. (How's your Saturday going?) A stylist should never rush a hair cut in order to get through as many clients as possible because that leads to lousy haircuts. We'll never be back. read more

I don't really like to spend too much money on haircuts nor do I ever know what I'm doing to make appointments so I usually go to Great Clips or something, but this was by my work so I thought I'd give it a try. I have long hair and I like to have short layers so it looks voluminous and most of the cheap places I go to don't understand how to cut that look - These gals here knew exactly what I was talking about and I absolutely LOVE my haircut. I'm writing this about a month later and it still looks amazing!! I didn't need an appointment, it was fast and easy.. the woman who cut my hair had such confidence and communicated so well with me that I felt totally at ease. Make sure you have cash though because they don't take credit cards! Definitely going here for my haircuts from now on. read more

Walked in, no appointment and had my haircut right away. Great haircut without all cost of the city. Great experience.

I always wanted to be a 'regular' at a hair salon/barbershop, and I've finally done that with Studio I-90. I've been coming for more than 2 years now, always for Jeanette, and have always been satisfied with my haircut. It's a happy place--they greet you smiling, they have their regulars coming in and out--and the price makes it a near unbeatable value. read more

Five 'scissors' for Studio I-90! :) I've been a faithful customer here for several years and they always do a great job. Veronica and her staff are extremely nice and friendly. They are always accommodating when it comes to booking an appointment and my haircuts always look GREAT! I have referred many friends here (both guys and girls) and they are now regular customers as well. Studio I-90 is reasonably priced and they offer a great straight razor neck shave. They will even provide you with your own complimentary personal razor which they label and store for you. Now that's exceptional service! As an added bonus, there is easy non-metered street parking in front of the salon! I highly recommend this place! read more

Love this place. So i have been here twice, first time was for a hair cut second cut and color. I am from a small town and this salon reminds me of one back home i really like that. Both experiences have been great, had the same lady both times tho I have forgotten her name. I the second time she did high light and low lights she also deep conditioned my hair for free, it really need it was dried out from the summer. Now looking good and i didn't have to give up an arm and a leg to get these services!! The specials they have here are great! Monday-Tuesday free hair cut with the purchase of color or high lights and Wednesday $15 cuts. Free parking! read more

Love my haircut, its a friendly and relaxing environment. Jeanette is great at what she does, it is also affordable and great quality.

Jennette did a super job. No frills. Affordable. Damn good haircut. Will be back. The rest of this review is just filler because Yelp won't let me leave a star rating without writing a damn essay about every place I've been to. Getting sick of you, Yelp!! read more

It was one of these days when I decided to get a haircut last minute. I arrived 30 minutes before closing time and they took me in right away (it was a Tuesday). There was a new girl who said she would cut my hair (I didn't catch her name). I went with a layered mid-length bob (from pretty long hair) and I could tell she hesitated a bit. But Angela and Veronika (I believe she is the owner) came to the rescue and instructed her and also fixed a few things. Overall they took time and spent over 45 minutes getting it right (all three of them!), tweaking details and getting it exactly to how I wanted it. At the end it was perfect and it cost me $20! On my way out Veronika stopped me, said that she loved the haircut and the way it looked on me but she wanted to style it to show me how it needs to look like. So she spent an extra 20 minutes after closing, styling it at no extra charge (they usually charge for styling), with her husband waiting in the waiting area. You could tell that she really loved her job; was passionate about it and wanted to make her customers happy. I love this place and I will keep going back there (this was my third haircut there and I never had a bad one yet)! read more

RUTH IS AMAZEING best hairstylist her hair cut was very good and she is well trained when my hair grew out it remained it's shape really well read more

Ohhh my goodness I just love love love this place! I have only been a few times now, but this is where I plan to get my haircut from now on. I took a gamble and chose a new place (I don't usually go to the same place/person as many do, however, I'm not too high maintenance about haircuts...), but I decided to get bangs!, which is kind of a gamble to take in the first place, not to mention randomly going to a place you've never heard of. Anyway, supppper cheap, really friendly haircutters, so quaint and informal, I just love it! I showed my hairdresser the picture of the bangs look I was going for, and she made them look great! And bang trims are only $5. I will DEFINITELY be back and will encourage my friends as well. read more

I went in for a walk-in trim. I told the stylist I wanted a trim, but after drying my hair I see it is at least 1.5 inches to 2 inches shorter. She said she was taking off a half-inch. I had previous layers I wanted trimmed up but I feel she trimmed them too coarsely; I didn't want that chunky look. I think she spent probably 10 minutes cutting my hair total. It's not a terrible haircut, don't get me wrong, but it's about the quality of a Great Clips. For $18 at the last minute though, I guess that is what you get. A men's cut here is probably fine, but I won't be going back. read more

I found Studio I-90 on yelp and walked in with no appointment but was still seen in 15 minutes and it was a great haircut, the owner was so sweet :) Would definitely recommend and they have great prices. read more

Got my hair cut by Angela (I believe) at this place. Its a small place with only one shampoo chair and 3 haircut chairs. As you sit down, they ask what you are looking for. They asked all the pertinent questions (what number for the sides and back, round or square in the back, side burns or not, etc) for my haircut. Obviously will be different for girls. After the cut, they do straight razor cut of the neck, being a straight razor virgin I was nervous. It turns out to be nothing more a regular shave with a cool looking razor. As an incentive to return, after 3 haircuts you get your own personal razor blade. They have a cabinet full of blades with people's names on them. You don't need an appointment but bring cash (one guy didn't and had to leave to go to the ATM I hope he returned and paid for his cut). I went at like 4:30pm and only waited about 10 minutes or so. There was plenty of free street parking at that time. Go on Wednesdays because the haircut is only $15. As an added bonus for you creepy dudes, one of the stylist is pretty cute I think her name was Jessica. All in all, it was a good haircut that was nearby and only cost $15 + tip. Stylist did ask if I wanted a shampoo or styling product after the cut, I declined (never understood that because a shower is a must post haircut, so why style for the ride home). I will return and hopefully get my own straight razor. read more

I wish I can give this place more stars but they only deserve these two because they're nice and cheap. First, the haircut I got is just awful.. She gave me bangs like I asked and layered them but there's a few pieces that are just long and hanging in the middle of my face. And lastly, the owner was taking shots with other clients and there's underage children there getting their haircut. How can you let someone drinking tequila shots and then cut your hair? Ridiculous. read more

I love it here bc today I'm getting my hair colored red velvet like cat from Sam and cat and victorious the show and I thought it was pretty cool ^_^ read more

Great local place. It's always easy to get an appointment and they do a nice job cutting hair (though I must admit, cutting my hair is not a difficult task). More than that, the price is unbeatable. With tip, my haircut comes to a whopping $15. Not sure where else in Chicago you can get that kind of deal! The best part, however, is the straight blade shave on the back of the neck at the end of each hair cut. Make it in for 3 hair cuts, and you get a blade of your own. Rock on! read more

Great cut for a great price! I found Studio I-90 on Yelp, and I immediately got an appointment. They were very nice and courteous.

I just went in for a trim. I'm trying to grow my hair long and another salon cut it to look trendy and razor-y; the opposite of what I asked for. I tried Studio I-90 to fix my hair after seeing their good reviews. Jessica listened to what I said and I love my hair! They were super nice. I was in and out in 15 minutes. And it was only $18! I'm so glad I went there! They are cash only, but there's a PNC bank across the street. They let me run over after the cut. read more

Isabella left! I almost panicked but found out she's now at Spotlight by brickyard. Totally worth the extra drive! It's hard to find a hair stylist to trust, but she's great lifting dark color while keeping the health of your hair. I've recommended her to all of my friends and get compliments on my hair all the time. So if you're looking for her or just a great stylist in general-- she's at Spotlight. read more

Love this place!! I had a great experience coming from having orange hair to leaving having my hair back to normal and loving it was the best! It a nice small location with friendly gals who not only make you look good, but feel good as well!! read more

Very casual salon/barber. Ruth has never disappointed me and always leaves my hair with great color and cuts. She listens to what you want. I cannot say enough about the great prices, product, and promotions they offer. After some bad experiences at high end salons, I am so glad I took a leap of faith in a salon so close to my house. read more

I would love to give this place a terrible review, b/c I don't want it to get too popular and then I can't get an appointment and they jack up the price. However, Jeanette has given me the best cut of my life (running on 8 months now). I now look like a jewish Bradley Cooper, and I'm not even Jewish!! My cut only costs $18 ($25 w/ tip) and I almost proposed to her during my first straight razor neck shave. Don't let the looks of this place fool you. They don't need all of the fancy decor. Their work speaks for itself. read more
