Rachel does an excellent job cutting my hair!. She has done so for years. And she is very nice!

What a great experience I had today at Surge! Grace is amazing! I haven't loved my hair in a long time but she changed that for me today. She is young and has great vision. I got lucky today because I got to sit in her chair! OH and this is the best blowout I have ever had! THANKS GRACE & Surge Salon!! read more

I went in for a blowout with curls for my wedding day. I absolutely love how my hair turned out. Jessica made it look full and made me feel beautiful for my special day. Thank you again, Jessica! I would highly recommend SURGE! read more

I have been with Janet and Helen for over 23 years. Would follow them anywhere Janet knows exactly how I like my hair and Helen always cuts my hair just like I want. I am picky and would not trust anyone else. They know me and my family stories. I look forward to my appointments and seeing my favorite girls. read more

I've never experienced such rude treatment before. I made an appointment for color and style for a wedding and reviews made the place sound good. When I walked in the stylist closest to the entrance looked me up and down turned away and did not say a word to me. I sat down waiting to be attended to, not expecting everyone in this salon to be so rude and inattentive to customers. I was wrong. I really should have left but needed my hair done for the wedding. It took over 10 minutes for someone to come by and say "hello do you have an appointment"?. Even then there was no Welcome, so sorry for delay etc. - I am a normal looking person. I am polite and treat others respectfully. My race or color of my skin shouldn't matter. If simple curtesy is too hard for you don't work with people. Needless to say I will Never go back and Do Not recommend this salon. read more

Janet and her team do amazing hair creations, exactly the vision I was seeking! Great location too! read more

I've been going to Rachael for many years and she always provides excellent service. I typically pop in for blow-outs and a trim once in a while and I'm never disappointed. The owner is extremely nice and helpful as well. I recommend their services and salon. read more

I had called in requesting for a same day appointment and was able to get in. I recently had a hand injury with stitches so I've been unable to wash my own hair and even blow dry or style it. I came in for a wash and blow dry and Melissa was AMAZING!!!! She made my experience one of the best since needing assistance with washing and blow drying my hair. Melissa was super friendly and went above and beyond my expectations. I walked out of there with my hair feeling super light & she even added curls to my hair so I wouldn't have to worry about trying to do something to my hair for another at least 1-2 days. I wish I had taken a picture of my hair because it looked great. I even had some of my friends asked if I just got my hair colored again, when I only got it washed. I definitely recommend this spot! It's a nice space and clean as well. read more

This was my first visit. I was disappointed with my haircut -- AND with the recut. I will not be going back.

Got a haircut+blowout from Amber before an engagement photos session and my brows done by Jennifer(?) before my wedding. Both so talented, personable, and understanding. The place was kind of hard to find: it faces the Trader Joe's lot but Google Maps took me to the Noodles & Co lot. The salon is clean, simple, and they don't try to upsell you on services or products. Prices are very reasonable. I admire the effort they go to to build a relationship with you. Highly recommend. read more

I absolutely love this salon! It's chic, clean and in a great location. Janet is a total rockstar and my hair always looks fantastic. Everyone there is really great though too. They accept walk ins and take appointments. Janet is awesome at translating exactly what I want, even if I bring her 30 different ideas she always knows how to give her clients exactly what they want. There is plenty of parking at the salon and it's in a great area. Trust me when I say you will LOVE your hair. read more

Victoria and Christina did a fantastic job on my hair! Victoria was my stylist but Christina helped her out to make the process go quicker. They were both very friendly and great to talk to! The salon is clean and tidy. I highly recommend Victoria and Christina at Surge Salon for all your hair salon needs! read more

If you are like me then you have tried many hair salons...but there is a difference between a pro and a hobbyist I have left my "bad hair days" behind. Amber is a rock star when it comes to hair. She listens, and is able to create the perfect style, cut, color. I am a fan! Thanks Amber, my husband and I both love what you do for our hair! read more

Our family loves Surge Salon. Prices are reasonable and our hair looks great. Victoria is the best!

Hi, this is a friendly reminder that this Tuesday when the stylist was booked and filling in for the people, she did not remember to dye my hair or highlight it I was gracious enough to let it go not a big deal. We could always do it next week Namaste things happen I let it go. I tipped her I paid for my service. I called you guys within 18 hours 18 hours of my appointment. So that you knew that I had to care for sick grandchildren that I would be watching them. I honestly thought about bringing my sick twin 2 year old grandchildren into the salon with me and allow them run around so your customers could cough, whine, cry and have their little noses run everywhere know how your elderly and middle age clientele would enjoy having them being present. But I have too much respect for people to be so thoughtless and I love my grandchildren way too much to subject them to going outside when they feel like crap I called you with 18 hours before my session. I was told that the stylus was opened all day and then I was coming back to have something done that was forgot to be done the first time, I really wanted to give you guys the benefit doubt I really wanted to try you guys this Silas gave a great cut but I work in the medical field and there's nothing holding me to the 18 hours 24 hours call before we're going to charge of all I have to do is complain to my Credit card company because you don't have me sign a waiver saying that I agree to it. They have me signing my receipt saying that yet I receive the services there's no way to hold me to it every checked with my Discover card they see the payment it's not even like pending. It was kind of like just sitting there. She said that she wasn't sure what they're gonna do with it but I'll call them tomorrow at 12:15 and if it's there it will be removed. She may have already discussed in detail Your policy and while I understand it stops you're stylist from getting screwed from the person forgot about their session. Hey, I agree charge them or called for hours before their session 2 hours one hour that's fine 24 hours I could have Covid do you want me showing up then? read more

Victoria did an amazing job repairing my daughter's hair after my daughter decided to bleach her own hair. She was very thorough and kind through the whole process. Loved the results!! read more

I am writing this review as someone who newly moved into the area and had the most bizarre experience here. I unfortunately had read 'great' reviews of this salon but am posting this as a caution to anyone considering Cristina as their particular stylist. I made an appointment through the website for a partial highlight and haircut (nothing out of the ordinary) with Cristina who appears to have been in the business for awhile but my experience with her makes me question how long she'd been doing hair. I spent a solid 5-10 minutes at the beginning describing what I was looking for with my highlights and color and she seemed to understand, didn't ask for any photos or follow up questions that would make me think what shade of blonde I was looking for was not far from what would be achieved. While highlighting me she offered water at the beginning ( and never brought) and then reminded herself TWICE that she forgot to bring it out, only to go to the back room after I was sitting with foils on and act like she was getting it but not bring it out. I survived but am nearly 40 weeks pregnant and was like a wilted plant walking out of there. I was the last appointment of the night and the salon cleared out so it was just she and I. At times she was friendly but then seemed cold and uninterested in being there/or trying to develop a relationship (I said I was looking for a new home salon multiple times). She'd bizarrely disappear into the back room for what seemed like long periods of time and halfway through my appointment she told me we were 'getting close to time so she wasn't going to be able to finish my appointment and I'd need to come back another day.' Mind you, I'm 39+ weeks pregnant, hadn't asked for anything different or that I hadn't booked for -- in my 20+years of having my hair highlighted have never once had a stylist tell me something along this line especially when you pay what you pay for coloring! My demeanor completely changed, I became incredibly uncomfortable being in the salon alone with her which maybe she picked up on though was aloof most of the time. I had asked earlier if she had plans that evening and she said no, just hanging out with her boyfriend so it as clear she A.) wasn't interested in developing a client relationship B.) Just did not want to be there and C.) Made the comment about 'getting close to time' as she was taking my foils off which makes me think she knew she goofed the color. I knew when I saw it in the mirror it was too dark, she's just used one shade of blonde (not two) and at the end of the appointment she told me I 'should have asked for baby lights' -- clearly having understood the color I wanted and instead made my hair a mousey brown. I went home and cried, being so close to my due date and knowing I had limited ability to correct this. I called the salon the next day and spoke to Mary Grace who was very sweet and understanding and booked me on someone else's calendar to come in the next day and try to fix it. The gal, Jessyca, was very kind and tried her best to strip toner to lighten it more but its clear Cristina used a completely wrong color and only 1 shade of blonde. They did not charge me to have it retoned which I was appreciative for but I never heard from a salon manager or anyone from the salon (beyond the to stylists who tried to fix it) about an apology, issuing a refund/credit etc. This salon is an incredibly convenient location for me to my home but based on my experience I would NOT recommend, and would seriously caution anyone thinking about booking color with Cristina to consider another stylist. I spent nearly $300 for a partial and haircut (double what I spent in the city for a decent salon) for some seriously jacked up highlights, I wouldn't even call what I received highlights, she took my blonde hair brown and based on their recourse to fix didn't feel like the management acknowledged enough of the problem to make me trust they value their salon brand. I won't be returning. Stylist also shared that in the brief time Cristina has been there I was not the only complaint they'd recently received -- for what it's worth! read more

Janet does an excellent job She has been coloring my hair for almost 20 years It always looks great and I would never go anywhere else Excellent Personable service read more

I cannot recommend Surgesalon enough. Victoria is excellent. She took her time and listened and gave great suggestions. She took the time to pull up pictures and walk through different ideas with me. The end results are amazing. We recently moved from the city, and so I was looking for a more local option and found her. So glad I did! You won't be disappointed. read more

Love this place! Victoria did the most amazing job on my hair after going to a salon who gave me the opposite effect of what i wanted. She was so honest and kind and took her time to guarantee the best possible outcome. I will be recommending this salon to everyone! Great job. read more

What an amazing GEM. From the second I walked in to a very friendly greeting and when I asked if there was time for a cut, I was immediately acknowledged (btw by a dresser that was cutting hair)... that "someone will be with you in a moment to check"... just a few moments later I was greeted by Natalie. (This is going to sound corny, but saying it anyway).. But Natalie is the next gem. She's professional and personable and excellent in what she does. My SON even noticed my hair cut and complimented! For the first time ever.... I can finally say I found my stylist. read more

I have been going to a large salon for the last five or six years. I always tried to get the first appt of the morning because it would get crowded and loud the later it got. I decided to make a change and made an appt with Samantha at Surge. The early appts were already taken, so I went in at 11. Not only did I get to enjoy a leisurely start to my Saturday, but it was not loud and crazy at the salon. The chairs are spaced far enough apart that you feel like you have privacy. It was actually a relaxing experience. Very calm and quiet. Samantha did an excellent job on my hair (a color, cut, style). I don't know why, but I received several compliments on my hair. It looked the same to me, but apparently not, because of the number of compliments I received. I am very happy with the service and the price. read more

Amber is so great! Every time she gives me a haircut that I love and great conversation! She's affordable and always gets back to me, unlike other places. read more

Helen has been cutting my hair for 10 years! From long layers to short pixies, she does it all with expertise and attention to detail. Janet is an excellent colorist - I've gone to her for my highlights and they are the best I've ever had, super natural and no breakage. Definitely check out this power-duo at their new spot in GE! read more

I have been getting my cut from Helen and color by Janet for years, they are truly the best!!!! I have thick hair and am so specific about how it is done, they kill it every time. read more

I'm obsessed with these two amazing women. I've been following and going to them for years. Gia is the only one who can tame my wild and thick curly hair. And it actually doesn't take her too long either which is great!!!! Janet always knows what color to dye my hair. She recently did an amazing color for the fall. A reddish color. It's not too over powering for my skin color and I am left feeling beautiful. These two dynamic duo are the best!!! (: read more

Victoria is amazing. I found this salon by reading the Yelp reviews, and I'm so glad I did. I had been to five different stylists at various salons around town, but no one could blow dry my hair properly. Every person left my hair frizzy (I have thin, mixed-race hair). I would always have to go home to redo whatever the stylist had just done. Thank the Lord for flat irons. And then the last stylist trimmed my hair in such a way that it was almost a new (unwanted) style with long "fangs" at the sides of my face. The back was way too short, and the sides were way too long. But Victoria, who is so sweet and so kind, listened to me and fixed my hair. Not only did she fix the bad haircut, she is the first person I have found (#6!) who can blow dry my hair properly. She also gave me a great recommendation for a nail salon! I am so happy to have found Surge and Victoria. read more

Janet is the absolute best colorist I've ever been to in twenty years of getting highlights. It is perfection every single time! Helen is the best in cutting hair and blow drys. I love this salon, I love these ladies. You will get what you want every time. They are consistent and they are extremely talented. I will not go anywhere else. You cannot go wrong with this salon. It will be your forever home. Thank you ladies! See you soon :) read more

Called and made a same day appt. I needed a trim the stylist listen and cut my hair just the way I wanted it. They shampoo and blow dry. Love my new hair. Def going back. read more

After my first time at Surge, I plan on going there for all my future haircuts!! I was a walk-in, didn't make an appointment. Everyone was chill and nice. I have long hair and she cut the perfect amount off. Not too much chatter because she was actually focused on giving me a good haircut. When we did talk, she was extremely genuine. Prices were amazing for a salon in Glen Ellyn. read more

Victoria is awesome! Prices are reasonable and I'm very happy with all the haircuts I've had. I definitely recommend Surge Salon!

My hair stylist moved out of the area and I was desperate to get a hair cut before going out of town. I called on a Saturday and was able to get in the same afternoon! Mimi gave me the best shampoo I ever had with a great scalp massage. She also took her time with my haircut and was very precise. All done for $30! Wow! Can't beat that! I'll be back! read more

My experience here was fantastic! Victoria did a great job and listened to and executed exactly what I wanted. Prices are great ($30 for women's cut) and it surge has a convenient and welcoming atmosphere! read more

Cute and cozy salon in the Trader Joe's shopping center. I recently moved here from California and have had a difficult time finding a hair stylist who specializes in ombré/balayage and tape in hair extensions, until now! I am so glad I found this salon. Victoria is such a talented hair stylist and she is so sweet and patient as well as very professional. I am beyond pleased with the outcome of my hair! Thank you so much Victoria! read more

Mimi was fabulous. She took her time, asked questions to ensure the look I was going for. Highly recommend Mimi and SURGEsolan!

I cannot recommend Surge Salon more highly! Helen has been my stylist for many years and I, too, have followed her to Surge and she is the absolute best there is! I would follow her anywhere. She can do anything - a true artist! Janet has colored my hair for the past few years and I wish she had been doing it for since i started coloring. She is masterful and truly gifted. My hair changed drastically after an early menopause and very unexpected and emergent surgery. It was really impacting my confidence in not feeling good about my appearance, doing my job in outside sales, and not being able to do my own hair anymore. I had a keratin treatment that will last for 3 months (fingers crossed) as opposed to the 6 week one that stopped working on my frizzed out and unbelievably curly hair anymore. I have been so impressed with their collective ability to not get frustrated with the situation and the additional attention I needed over a period of time to "figure it out." They truly listen and collaborate to the benefit of their clients. I have been to many salons over the years and this, by far, is the best of the best. Janet became my colorist after another colorist from a very well known company highlighted my hair so badly that it broke off (and lying to me about the use of bleach, which I was adamant about). Helen and Janet essentially nursed my hair back. They are an awesome team. Alex too is a wonderful addition and very creative stylist. Surge Salon really recognizes their customers - you are not just a number or a "head of hair to them." They believe in establishing a clientele. Their line of products are fabulous - but if there is a product would be beneficial to your hair (and it isn't part of the Surge line), they will recommend it without hesitation. That doesn't happen at other salons where they force their products on you! Helen and Janet - thank you for the wonderful hair, the beautiful and welcoming salon, and the great energy you feel just walking in the door! Life changing hair! Life changing, people!!!!!! read more
