I have been bringing my boys here for years. My youngest son has Down syndrome and used to cry every time we took him for a haircut until we found "Mama" at Demeri's . She is so kind and gentle with him. (Fiona and her father in law also cut his hair when her mom is not available) All are great. After about four years of bringing him I saw a mom and her 3 daughters come in for haircuts. SO I decided I would give it a try myself. Fiona colored my hair yesterday for the second time and as long as I live in Illinois, she will be coloring my hair. read more

My second review but on a different platform but the same high regard I was hoping to find the name of the woman who cut my hair my hair. I'm pretty sure she's the owner. She did an incredible job on my basic haircut and I've received a ton of compliments. Also, I've got to get my hands on whatever spray the used to dampen your dry hair... My hair is so soft and it smells amazing even the next day Thank you again read more

I have been going here for most of the year now! Keita (sp?) is the only one of all the stylists I have tried around Wheaton who truly captures the special hairstyle I want. Update: I brought my rating down to 4 stars. They doubled the price to $10 for women but won't change the sign, nor post the new price anywhere inside the shop. I will now search for somewhere else. read more

This is a no frills family owned and operated hair salon. Mama has been cutting my boys' hair for several years now and we couldn't be happier. They always look good after and we keep coming back. It's a cash only establishment. Give them a try. read more

Date: 7-February-2020 Time: Early Evening Total (before tip): $5.00 Hair Stylist: Can't Recall Grade: A+ I have been having my hair cut at this place for over a decade now. I love coming back here, it's close to my house, it's only $5 and for a guy, who literally just gets a buzz cut all over, is ideal! It has never been a day, when I walked in and had to wait. Today was no exception! I was in and out in under 7 minutes max. The service was impeccable, my hair stylist was awesome, personable and likable. She did her job quickly, efficiently and perfectly! I highly recommend this joint, especially, if you are a guy. A+ read more

I bring both my boys here for cuts at least once a month. Super convenient and quick ( a life saver for parents with little kids that wont sit still and wait very long)- we are always out in less than 30 minutes even when they place is full. I'll admit there are definitely some stylist that cut better than others here but they have no problem letting you wait if you chose so you can be cut by who you want. Bottom line- good service for the price. read more

--- A cut above the rest --- I came in here at lunch time on a Wednesday after reading good reviews. The staff was very polite and friendly, had many interesting things to say and kept the conversation going. The haircut was a great value for the quality and I was in and out in 15 minutes. Fiona did a great job. Please be sure to check that the address on your GPS will put you in a different location. The true address is across from the bowling alley. This will be my go to spot for a haircut in the Chicago area read more

The place is ok price is low only ting the workers talking loud to each other on Arabian language and don't really care about you:/

This place is kind of hit or miss based on who you get as a stylist. I have a feeling that many people do not tip so they assume that if you're not a regular you won't. I've been there 3x and the first two times were good but the last time wasn't great. I am debating whether to return because I basically received a buzz cut last time. I could have done that myself. It's quick and efficient though. Otherwise it'd be a solid 5. I may try one more time because it's such a good value. Even if you tip well. read more

as good as it gets anywhere! I have been going here since I moved to west Chicago...10 YEARS AGO! what a great Group of Hairdressers! PROFESSIONAL! great quality cut. none better imo. 60 years getting it cut. I will go NOWHERE ELSE. We must support our local businesses. for the price. please. there is no other choice. I would pay 10 times. what a great group of caring lovely professionals. tell them what you want. get it. no problems here. I will go nowhere else. read more

I went there because my mom, who lives very near there goes there and loves it. I got my last cut at Sportclips for the first time and paid $22 even though I saw all kinds of coupons right after for a free haircut for first time customers. It was a horrible haircut! Demur's cut my hair more than 4 times better for more than 4 times less! It is crazy they cut hair for $5.00! I was very happy!! read more

Been here multiple times and every time they have messed up our haircuts. It's always shorter than asked for and rushed. They may be quick but the end result is garbage. Don't recommend going there unless you want your hair messed up for months. read more

This place is fantastic on all counts. The price, out of this world! The staff is great as well. It is cash only, but they recently added an ATM for those who don't carry 10 dollars on them. As for the one bad review, I'm not sure exactly what happened, but that has to be a needle in a haystack kind of thing. The owners are very generous towards customers and the community. I tip very well here because they charge such a low price. I highly recommend this place over great clips/sport clips etc., because it's cheaper and they do a better job IMO! (hard to mess up a guys haircut, though) Go VISIT THEM! Open 9-7 every day except Sundays. read more

Another great haircut at Demiri's! I would give it 5 stars except that I only get trims myself. My husband and sons get great haircuts there. They do good work and are very nice. I know that blow outs are $8.00 rather than $5, but I have thin hair and it dries usually by the time I'm out the door. A couple things to remember: 1) These stylists are licensed. 2) This salon is family owned. 3) This salon does give back to the community with free haircuts before Christmas and other charitable work. 4) Any other salon that would tell you that Demiri has bad haircuts and is good for Their business is truly unprofessional. I would not go back to that business. This business is great for what most people want, an inexpensive haircut. Like an old barber shop. I recommend them to everyone. read more

$5 for a haircut. $8 extra to blow dry. They only take cash. There's a sign on the wall with the cost of their services. The employees are very nice, this is a family owned business. This is a no frills place. You won't find them pushing any products here and you won't find any great magazines to read. I've taken my boys here for a haircut and while there's no wait on weekdays, it's packed on the weekends. Saturday mornings seems to be mostly men which is a quick job. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was primarily women (obviously not sports fans) who were asking for the world! It's a $5 haircut ladies! I sat with my kids while one woman was complaining that they didn't cut enough off and the other one was unsure what she wanted and couldn't decide while the line was getting longer and longer. Get a grip! My kids got a great haircut, but I have kind of complicated hair, so this place isn't for me. My only beef with this place is that you can't use a debit/credit card here. read more

Been back three times. All visits have been weekdays after work, never had to wait, very quick. No unwanted upsell on services and such just a basic cut. No complaints from me especially for the price, tip generously. read more

It was horrible. When we got in, they kept running there mouth for 20 seconds and never said a word to us. They were speaking polish to themselves the while time. I had to get my sons hair cut for a 2nd time. The haircut was horrible. It smelled horrible inside. Very dirty.They were eating cheetos and did not wash their hands. They SUCKED! Do not go back. I always give honest reviews. Follow me on Twitter @cubbieblu72 read more

$5 dollar haircut. That about sums it up. It is a great deal. My husband and my son both go there about once a month. I only cut my hair twice a year, so I haven't been in the chair yet, but sometime before Christmas, I will be. If you need something very fancy done, maybe somewhere else is better. For "just a trim," this place can't be beat! To the PP, why on earth would you just "stop on the way home from work" to get your hair done before a *wedding?* read more

Demiri is great! The people are always friendly, they work quickly and well and are always happy to see a regular. Would highly recommend.

Great place and family that runs it knows you personally after couple times going. They cut my hair perfectly every time and granted I'm not difficult I've had much bigger places screw it up. They advertise 5 dollar cuts but I'm not going to sleep with my conscious killing me laying down 7 bucks. I pay whoever cuts my hair what I'd pay elsewhere but that's me, I understand if your on a budget or have 13 kids whatever, what gets me is this guy and according to my regular stylist/barber happens on the regular, this guy next to me is taking forever, soon as you think he's done he's like ''aaah yeaaa thing is could you just take little more over here" sounds just like the boss from the movie The Office Space. Then he finally gets up brushes himself off goes to the counter to pay and mind you they advertise the $5 for the haircut so he literally I wish I was making it up I wouldn't have had indigestion, and raised blood pressure afterwards, but he pulls out 10 dollar bill asks for 4 bucks back BUT THEN was like uuh do you have 4 quarters? Barring the exception he's autistic or has Asperger's Syndrome or something else going on I would have ended up in jail smashing his head on the counter repeatedly after asking for quarters. Unfortunately when you advertise 5 dollar cuts your gonna draw in the wealthy cat lady driving the 89 rusted out Nissan Sentra packed to hilt with crap from garage sales collecting donut boxes to use for y those 39 cats she's holding hostage and assclown in S class Mercedes that'll tip ya a buck and drive a car that costs what some make in years time all while being annoying on the level of Fran Drescher talking to you for 4.5 Seconds , Anyways SOLID place, fast and inexpensive for what your getting, extremely friendly staff and hair stylist no matter who you get. read more

I love this place. Almost everybody who sends in their review love this place as well. This company is family owned and I have been a loyal customer of their since they opened their doors. The family is a perfect example of the "American Dream". They came to the United States years ago, and are very proud to be American citizens. They work their brains out and have always given A+ quality hair cuts at a ridiculously low price (I wouldn't work for that little). And not once in all those ten years in business have they ever raised their prices. I think the very least us loyal customers can do is write them a warm and appreciative review. They certainly deserve it.  And to the few people that give them a one star review, and then say that they won't ever come back... I say thank you and good riddance to you. We don't need idiots bashing our wonderful professional haircut friends.  And am I a friend of theirs?   I certainly hope so, but that doesn't mean my endorsement can be bought...  it can't.  I love them because they are the best.   The Demiri family are great USA citizens and great community neighbors, and are not the kind of people to bad mouth anybody and they wouldn't say what I'm about to say. But I think these clowns who give the Demiri Hair Salon just one star, are idiots ... and are probably the very ones who don't tip no matter what anyway. read more

$5 haircuts! Seriously. Have been going here for many years and could not be more pleased. It is a first come first serve salon but the turn around time is quick. I highly recommend Kayta. I am fiercely loyal to this place and have recommended it to many, many friends who are now loyal as well - men, women and kids. If I didn't mention it yet it is $5 for a haircut. Tip well. For $5 you can afford it. read more

This place is the most efficient salon I've ever been to. I hadn't bothered getting a haircut for a few months and showed up with my homeless person mop along with a photo of what I wanted, and was out of there in under 10 minutes looking like a valued member of society again. There was no probing about my personal life, or any of the contrived conversation that people in the service industry impose on the rest of us in some twisted effort to human bond their way into a higher tip. None... and it was a relief. I didn't even have time to sweat in the chair. :) My only complaint was that I didn't receive one of those paper collars around my neck to catch stray hairs from going down the smock, so my neck was itchy the rest of the day. read more

This is the place I go to to get my hair styled for parties. Big beautiful curls with lots of volume!! Perfect job every time. I highly recommend it read more

I've been getting my hair cut by the stylists at Demiri for over five years now. Not only is the price great ($13 covers a haircut, shampoo and tip) but this is a fantastic family business. I'm partial to Fiona and Elda cutting my hair. They're both young working mothers who always treat me with respect. Fiona's parents own Demiri and they are living the American dream by running their own business. I highly recommend Demiri. read more

Got my hair cut there today for the first time. The service was fast, and my haircut looked good. My hair stylist was friendly and helpful, although for part of the time, she was carrying on a personal conversation in another language with a coworker. Still for $5, I can't complain. I would absolutely recommend this place. read more

Not bad for a $5 haircut place, very quick and didn't have to wait long. Only gripe would be cash only but guess that would be expected.

Don't really like the service, the employees aren't really responsive to what I tell them how I want my hair to be done, and they always end up messing it up, they always seem to be in a hurry which I really don't like read more

When I called for an appointment they told me it was $5 ! FIVE DOLLARS????? WHAT??? but ONLY the haircut is $5... if you want it washed to get a better cut it's more $$$, if you get it blowed dry.. its more $$$... I didn't want to go outside in WINTER WINFIELD weather with a wet head so I said YES.... to the blow dry... She handed me a $20 check when I was done! I didn't leave a tip this time... I'll see what my hair looks like in 3 days... read more

I agree with Jason here. After the chop job my daughter received at this place I brought her to the Great Clips down the block. The stylists ran their fingers through her hair, shook their heads and laughed in incredulity at how bad the Demiri cut was. They said Demiri has been great for their business, they have so many folks coming to them for repairs after visiting there first. The majority of stylists in this place haven't got a clue. My daughter's cut left the sides of her hair visibly uneven and my son had little long sections of hair in the back that they missed. The cheap price is not worth the risk, pay a few dollars more and go to Great Clips. read more

Great haircut for the price you pay. It is a in and out kind of haircut salon. The price is about $5, so for the price, it was a fair cut. The service was welcoming, took about 5 minutes to get a haircut. If they could do one thing, I think the salon should try to take a bit more time on the haircut and maybe more communication. I had a fine stylist but the man next to me seem like he was being rushed. Overall, not bad haircut salon. Try it out! read more

I wouldn't give this place any stars if I could. They botched mine and my kid's hair. BIG TIME!! And I had a wedding to go to. They waxed my eyebrows and took half my total eyebrow off! I looked like a damned freak! And my hair is so uneven, it looks literally like I let a 3-year old cut my hair. I only went here because it was on the way home, but NEVER AGAIN. My kid's bangs looked horrible and she had pictures at school. I re-did them myself, and they look better! Do these people even have licenses? Nice doesn't save you from looking like a freak. And I didn't like the sign ORDERING ME to TIP GENEROUSLY because the haircuts are $5.00. Remember, you GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!! For looking worse than before I walked in, I should've had to pay ZERO! And I DESPISE CASH ONLY businesses. I carry little to no cash. NEVER, EVER AGAIN! read more

I wish i can give this place 0 stars for their service. My 8 year old nephew went here with his dad. When I saw him back at home, he was crying. When asked why he was crying he showed the back of his left ear which was covered in blood! When I asked his dad how did that happened, he said that my nephew was moving. I get it, that it's his fault and he shouldn't move, but he is 8 years old! We adults move when we get a haircut and he is just 8!! The person that gave him a haircut, didn't even have the decency in herself to tell my brother (the dad) that he is cut and bleeding and continued to cut my nephew's hair. His wound was covered in blood and hair. This is so unprofessional and unethical. If you don't have a first aid kid at least tell the parent/guardian so they can at least clean the wounded area. How are you going to cut a part of your client's (8 year old) skin, continue to cut their hair, and let them go without telling the parent?!?! My brother had to find out his kid is bleeding. Own up for your mistakes!! Worst service Ever! read more

Horrible! I would never return. Hair dried and it's not even at all! inch longer on one side and the layers are uneven. I am so disappointed. I want my money back! They offer $5 haircuts then when you're done they tell you it's an extra $3 for layers, shouldn't you tell me that BEFORE? They don't even clean up the hair on the floor between customers so you sit there with other peoples hair around you. Gross. And the hair cut took not even 10 mins. I should have known from the start this was not a good place to go to. Save your money and time and go somewhere else. Great Clips and Supercuts are WAY better. read more

The price is great, but friendliness and basic experience was poor. I walked in and she was giving someone a haircut and I got a quick hello. Usually they say, "be right with you. have a seat, etc." She cut my hair quickly, but it wasn't the best...my sideburns were left uneven. It looked like she wanted to get it done quickly and had no desire to make the customer comfortable. I guess you get what you paid for. read more

Please do not go there. I took by middle school daughter for a small pink streak in her hair. The "stylist" told us it was $10. and then added another foil without asking thus doubling the price. Even worse was the end result -a faded ORANGE streak and damage to her hair. Needless to say they still expected payment for this butchery! read more

My husband and son went there today. Great haircut. In and out in less than 15 minutes and my husband said he'll be back. They were friendly, no shavers..used scissors. Nice. Will go back. read more

Worst haircut I ever had. When I suggested the person correct it, she asked me what I expected for the price. Then, she said she would ... for $10 more. This is the first time I walked out of anywhere without paying. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else." read more

I went in on a Saturday morning there were several people waiting but they got to me quite quickly. I fully understand that we are talking about a five dollar haircut but calling what they did to my head a haircut does not even come close! the woman needed a shower her breath smelled like coffee and cigarettes and she spent the whole three minutes that my "haircut" took complaining about the lousy tip the last customer left! Thats right...three minutes! I wanted the length left alone and she cut it to almost crewcut length but missed some spots! She.pulled off the cape ,looked at the owner and loudly announced....I need a break and walked away! On the way home I had to stop at another barber shop to see if it could be salvaged he looked at it and told me a crewcut was all he could do with it! He did not charge me one dime for the crewcut so I gave him a five dollar tip and will go there from now on! read more

If I could give no stars I could I went in with there coupon n there like no sorry to old I'm like it doesn't have an exp. date there like it's old to u and new to me. I'm in chair and was about to cut and I'm like wait show me cut then Im covered in other peoples hair from cape and sissors and all were just dirty I walked out I will be calling the BBB this place needs to be shut down and on the phone there super nice but not in person JUST SAY NO TO THIS PLACE read more
