Roque Salon, Hinsdale

Melinda Rodriguez trained at both the London and Chicago Vidal Sassoon salons, performing so well that she was later asked to help launch their Miami location. Not surprisingly, when she opened her own space, Roque Salon, she created a modern, upscale spot that's been lauded in everything from Time Out Chicago to InStyle. Here, she's gathered a talented team that performs Kerastase treatment haircuts, color services, and extensions. As someone with experience styling Nicole Miller and Armani runway shows, Rodriguez has also instilled her team with top-notch blowout, updo, and makeup-application skills.
