When you step inside Pearls of Chicago, its lavish interior makes it easy to forget the hard work that keeps the place running. Wall-to-wall wood floors dotted with modern-style chairs creates an effortlessly clean, minimalist aesthetic. Touches of European style like plush furniture and chandeliers hint at glamorous elegance. But behind all of this, the salon's five beauty specialists are constantly striving through both work and continuing education to be the best in their industry.

These five women share their know-how of beauty maintenance while pampering and grooming their guests. Their services include haircuts, bridal makeup, massages, and more. Even if a client comes in for a standard cut—or perhaps a trendy Balayage hair color—they use only the finest products, including natural and organic brands like Davines and Éminence. Clients can then leave feeling pampered and beautiful, not just because of the ambiance at Pearls, but also thanks to its dedicated staff.
