I'm a first time client, I havn't had a haircut is two years after having my second baby. I called…read moreon Wednesday and they got me in on Thursday afternoon. The salon itself is very calming and if you're ever driving by you can't help but get drawn in by the clean aesthetic. I think this salon has a new loyal client. Shout out to Gianna, she's so fun and sweet. Not to mention very skilled. She knew exactly the cut I was interested in without me even pulling up any pictures. She asked questions on my preference and gave me advice on styling after my cut. I'm looking forward to trying other services at this location on my next visit. I'm so happy I found this place.

After 15 years with my stylist, I decided I needed to change; the salon I went to is in Lincoln…read morePark, where parking is at a major premium and, more importantly, it could take anywhere from 25 minutes to an hour to get there. After gathering some recommendations about what I was looking for, Ash & Willow was the place I chose. So to start there isn't any dedicated parking for this salon. There's street parking all around and one of the employees told me that they often park in the lot where Walgreens is, so that may be an option too. And lest you get confused, as I did, whilst trying to find the entrance, it is not at the "point" of the salon that faces the corner of Devon and Talcott, but rather about part the way down the block on Devon. It's a very elegant salon; comfy chairs, chandeliers, the whole works. Up front they have their merchandise and also seem to sell things by other creators--jewelry, textiles, etc.--along with their hair and skincare merchandise. Kevin Murphy, Milbon, Alastin, and Aveda are some of the brands you'll find here. I had an appointment with Shante, and she was great. Very warm and friendly, and I quickly felt a rapport with her. She did a great job on my my color, and we discussed other styles as well. I've been considering cutting it, which is usually just a couple inches to clean off the ends and re-establish the layers, but I may go a bit shorter. I'm also thinking about balayage as we move into spring. Shante is also a curly hair expert, and since my daughter has beautiful curls I will probably take her here once she starts getting her hair cut. And I wouldn't mind knowing better how to manage my own curls, and I'll be glad to have Shante's experience and expertise to guide me.

Deb and Milan are fantastic hair and make-up artists. I had the most interaction with Deb. She…read morewas very communicative before my wedding. Additionally, she was kind and flexible when I needed to reschedule my trial at the last minute because of my dog being sick. Most importantly, she gave me a look that I wanted on my wedding day, which was a big departure from the trial, both at my direction. This showed both her skill and flexibility. I can't recommend Deb and her team enough.

I cannot say enough good things about Kinga. She is truly the best--especially if you're blonde and…read morepicky about it (like me). She absolutely nails my color every single time: bright, natural, healthy blonde with zero brassiness. I get compliments constantly after seeing her, and people always ask who does my hair. Beyond her talent, Kinga is just the sweetest human. She's so warm, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about making sure you love your hair before you leave. She listens, explains what she's doing, and somehow always gives me exactly what I want--even when I can't fully describe it. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your blonde (or honestly any hair), Kinga is it. I wouldn't let anyone else touch my hair. Highly, highly recommend!

NISA is amazing! She's been doing my hair for three years and my hair has never looked or felt…read morebetter. I get so many compliments on my hair color. Nisa has also changed my color a few times because I wanted to try different shades of blonde. Nisa has also done my makeup for pictures and events.

We found a kids salon for our toddler son's haircut, but I thought it was a bit far (as we often…read morewere running late) and charged a bit much. Once again, I went to my trusty Yelp and found "Rock Hair Scissors," located by the Edgebrook Metra Station. Online booking was easy and I booked the next day appointment late the day prior. They had a shared parking lot with other businesses and we didn't have to look for street parking. Vicky, the stylist, was very attentive to cutting the hair and a good listener. We showed her what we wanted done for our son and she got to work right away! The result turned out great. They had him sit inside the "car seat" with a seat belt buckle attached inside. I also saw the other kid was watching cartoons on a tablet. They definitely knew how to keep the kids entertained and distracted. This is a much closer location for us to get to and we will surely come back for more haircuts. The pricing is fair and $10 less than the other corporate kids salon chain in Chicagoland.

I really enjoyed my haircut expereince at Pilorum. The process of online appointments was super…read morestreamlined and made it easy to see availability, particularly since several stylists in the area only take phone call appointments, and it's unclear to see what's available weeks or months ahead. You can even specify a hairstylist should you have a preference. Someone from the salon called to check in and ensure I had the best experience by asking a few basic questions about what I wanted for a cut. I was really impressed by the thoroughness in follow-up. When I got to the salon, check in was quick, the front desk kindly asked to hang up my coat, and there was no wait time (despite arriving slightly early for my appointment). You could also request a refreshment, and they have one of the most extensive coffee menus I've ever seen! The wash, cut, and styling were all done seamlessly, with my stylist periodically asking clarifying questions along the way. I paid at the door, and inquired when I should be back. Another staff member knowledgeably mentions about 6-8 weeks to maintain the shape of the cut. Everyone was so warm and kind. Not to mention, there's great parking in the front and in the alley. Highly recommend if you're in the area!

Thank you, Linda! Can't wait for my next visit!
