Hair Salons in Saint Charles

At Fringe, products by Aquage, Dermalogica, and Redken blow past aesthetic goals for hair and skin, and "near-perfect symmetry" delights nails in what the Huffington Post has called one of Chicago's Best Pedicures. Beyond the warm umber shadow cast by an orange awning, stylist Christina Crosthwaite has snagged plaudits from Chicago magazine for her envelope-pushing haircuts. A customizable selection of services begs for personal input into the looks-shaping process and causes fairy godmothers to practice job-interview skills.

Noel Rose Hair Studio, located in the heart of Lincoln Park, dresses tresses with a variety of services, performed by savvy stylists at affordable prices. The experienced team of hair whisperers consults with clients to determine innermost lock-related desires and carefully directs scissors to shear strands, reunite split ends, and charm even the most unruly of Medusa head snakes. In the hands of the staff, the Coppola keratin treatment uncoils curls and infuses dull locks with gloss and smoothness, and professional color by Wella revamps downtrodden ’dos. The spacious studio, replete with a large flat-panel television, surrounds patrons with natural light, aqua-blue walls, and modern leather décor.

Evolution Hair Salon's beauty savants cut, coif, and color tresses at their Lincoln Park spot. Ornately framed mirrors cast back images of clients' newly titivated locks and occasionally reflect on whether it's time for any of the salon's other services, including hair extensions and makeup applications.
