This small and locally owned business also offers facials and waxing but I've only been here for eye brow threading. The prices have gone up a whole ONE time since I've been going here, which was in 2020. If you do see Sharda, her pricing is more compared to the other staff members. I personally have only seen her so I can't speak to the others. Anticipate a slight wait time if coming in after 5pm during the week or anytime on the weekend. You are not able make an appointment but it really only takes about 10 minutes for eye brow breading. Bring cash too, they do not accept CC for services that total under $20. I don't think their hours are correct on google and Yelp so be sure to call ahead to make sure they're open. I did notice that there was a sign during my recent visit that said they are closed on Mondays.

Koki is the most kind and efficient waxologist I've ever know and I love that I can be in-and-out of the salon for threading and waxing in 30 minutes. This is especially helpful because I'm usually seeing them when I'm in town from NYC and scheduling something last minute and they always find time to fit me in. Sharda and Koki are the sweetest, most loving people I know and I am so thankful to have met them. I am grateful I have a place to go to whenever I visit IL to have my beauty needs met. My family and friends also come here for their threading and waxing and I don't think any of us would trust our faces or bodies to anyone else!

Whether you are here for a simple trim or going full out with highlights, a cut, and more, you can be sure that you will be taken care of. While Rose is usually quite busy, she will always do her best to make room in her schedule for you. I don't live in IL anymore, but whenever I come back to visit family, I always make sure to stop and see Rose. I don't trust any other hairdresser with my hair. I had been getting my hair cut the same way for so long. But, I recently decided to try something new and get highlights. I wasn't quite sure what I wanted so Rose dyed and styled my hair for me. The result was absolutely perfect. I have never been happier with my hair. Definitely recommend Gossip Salon, as the interior is quite chic and everyone is so nice. If you come here though, be sure to see Rose!!

Rosemarie is the best hairstylist! I'm always getting compliments on my hair and it's all thanks…read moreto the best hairstylist in the world. I was actually at a Yelp event once just having a good old time when someone behind me tapped me on my shoulders to tell me how great my highlights were. She wasn't even part of the Yelpers (just a restaurant patron) and was telling me that she is a hairdresser herself and she can spot a great highlight job when she sees it (that sounded redundant). I was so flattered! Rosemarie is usually booked up so I know I have to call in advanced to get an appointment. She is worth the wait, though! When I was out of the country, I had to go to another hairstylist because I couldn't hold out any longer (I waited 4 months!!) and it was a mess. I went back to her as soon as I got back to have the disaster fixed. Her prices are amazing!! AMAZING! Men's haircut is $20, Woman's haircut is around $40 and color varies depending on the hair length. For the haircut, she shampoos, cuts, blow dries, and then texturizes. She's an expert colorist and I've seen some of her clients that came from other salons to have their color fixed because it was a mess. She works at Gossip Salon, but you can call her direct line to make appointments - 630-307-0808.

I've been going here to get my eyebrows done every other week, for half a year now, and a few weeks…read moreago one of the ladies cut into the middle part of my eyebrow, and I had to wait for it to grow back. Yesterday I went back for my normal eyebrow threading, and the lady that did my eyebrows threaded the whole side of my eyebrow off. I called and told them I'll be coming back in a while so they could fix it somehow or fill it in, and they closed early. I got there at 7pm and they were already closed, but their closing time was 8pm. I will never go back to this place again. I have pictures for reference. The picture of my full eyebrow is how both of them usually look, and then the other photo is the eyebrow that she completely threaded off. My eyebrows already had the hair there. All she had to do was clean it up, but she completely took it off. I do not recommend this place at all.

I have yet to hear her come home and complain about her service. Yes, this is a little more expensive, but this isn't a chain beauty salon. Look, if my wife travels an hour and 10 min to see her...it's well worth the travel. There had been a few times that she has been late and With a courtesy call on my wife's end, again- Jen has been VERY accommodating. Keep taking care of my wife Jen... she thinks the world of you...

Over the years, she's helped me transform from fully blonde with short hair to my natural hair growing out to my shoulders, and back to a beautiful blonde balayage.

Every time I leave her chair, I feel so beautiful, and her soft curls are always on point. The whole salon is gorgeous and welcoming, and it's such a treat to see everyone's hair getting styled. Every client walks out looking incredible. I absolutely recommend Suite 115 Salon, and I highly recommend Mary--she's truly the best!

This review is going to get up close and personal…read more.. I was turned on to Xentrik because I heard Raji from Beauty Concepts (Downers Grove) was here on Tue and Sun. I loved Raji's facials and wanted a salon closer to me, so I was thrilled. I've had at least 6 visits here (if not more). They offer a nice selection of services at a very reasonable price. Waxing, threading, facials, hair, nails/pedicures, airbrush tanning, henna tattoos, makeup.. Salon itself is nicely decorated and very clean. I always feel good vibes when I'm here. Staff is so friendly and booking appointments is a breeze. Gaya is never not here and her schedule is flexible. Brazilian $30. Facials start at $30. Eyebrow threading is cheap too and she does a great job. Lately I've been coming mainly for Gaya's Brazilian wax and brow & face threading. Gaya is the only one who does waxing and she is an absolute doll. Extremely easy to be around, you won't feel uncomfortable with her. She has a very warm personality and is just likeable. Always smiling and jovial. Positive vibes ooze from her (not kidding). She's also professional and hygienic. She takes her job seriously. Wax room is super clean and she explains everything. I always have a ton of questions (especially first time I met her) about the Brazilian. She takes her time explaining and is extremely thorough! Yes, ladies know how important it is to have a 'spotless' Brazilian. I will tell you she uses hard wax only on certain areas. First time I ever experienced it and I questioned whether this was safe / good to use. I researched this myself and found varying opinions from professionals. Some said its fine down there, some don't recommend. Some women don't like it at all. You may not feel any pain with regular wax (I don't), but you will with hard wax. I asked Gaya and trusted her opinion. First time it WAS painful...second time too. Heck, its never not painful for a second or two and I have a high threshold for pain. It doesn't last long and she strives to do her best to reduce the "OUCH!" Regular hot wax is used on remaining area. Again, she is very thorough and throughout process asks if you're OK multiple times. She uses gloves during process and when finished applies baby oil and an antiseptic. You cannot have sex the night of. Your skin is still raw - she advises to apply baby oil and Neosporin few times after your visit. Its important to wait at least a month prior to next apt. Gaya is also a wealth of information on Indian spices and remedies. I've asked about hair, skin, etc and she told me multiple spices to use and how to use them. Tumeric is key along with ginger & others. Ask and she'll be happy to offer her knowledge - she knows her shit! She's the Wonderwoman of beauty & health...Highly recommend her. ps..they offer various hair product lines including Pureology..
