I have been coming to this location regularly for different braid styles, braid takedowns, as well as hair treatments and the employees as well as the manager are very kind and customer focused. I do feel like their staff go out their way to make sure the customer is comfortable as well as heard. Anytime I have no idea what I'm scheduling, they'll walk me through what to book and the prices are upfront. I also appreciate the various ways you can pay, and again they're very upfront about their policies. Check them out and see for yourself. I know they have tons and tons of other services besides braids, they do color, twist, dreads, etc. I've felt so comfortable there. I do enjoy my visits to this salon. read more

EnvyMe Hair Studio - Hair Salons Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

My mom referred me to this salon months ago. This salon reminded me why I don't enjoy going to hair salons. It seems like they have a more capitalistic approach to their hair services. This particular review is for my daughter's most recent hair appointment, the requested hair style was knot less large braids. I would say scheduling was easy, but after scheduling for a Saturday afternoon, I was texted by the hairstylist to let me know that I was "waitlisted" and was asked if I can come in earlier during the week, luckily I had some wiggle room in my schedule. Anyways, things were going well my daughter was checked in and provided a kid smock and was nice and comfortable. After,I left is when things took a turn. While I was out, apparently I was contacted by whomever to ask about a $40 detangling fee. Unfortunately, due to poor cell service in the area I did not receive any calls or text until I was able to get reception. After getting the text messages, Albiet a couple hours late, I returned the messages and explained that not only did my daughter not have braids for months, but I had already detangled her hair twice to avoid this issue. I already know how these type of salons operate & I am very knowledgeable about how to detangle coily hair. It seemed to me that this salon attempts to nickel and dime you for any and everything. It was very alarming that the hairstylist couldn't tell the difference between human hair and synthetic hair. She mentioned the braiding hair was "soft". Then proceeded to ask me if I wanted to curl the ends of the hair. I think it's telling. Anyways; they tried to lessen the blow by saying they will only charge $15 or whatever for their "detangle" fee. At that point I just wanted to get out of there. I won't attach any pictures of my daughter's hair but once I was almost home I noticed several of the braids were crooked and the braids itself look sloppy. The worst part about the whole ordeal was the text message response I received this evening which echos some of the other reviews that some of the staff here is very unprofessional. It was in response to their automatic survey request of which I briefly summarized my dissatisfaction with the service. Instead of leading with curiosity and understanding to see what could improved, I was met with a very negative response. If by chance the owner or whomever sees this, I don't want another snotty response like this. I've never been so disappointed, disrespected and demeaned as a person who genuinely wants to patronize these type of business. read more

EnvyMe Hair Studio - Sending text messages at 9:38pm - Hair Salons Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Horrible service do not go here!! Rude and hostile, my hair did not feel clean AT ALL, the person washing my hair didn't get it good after I paid for a deep cleaning wash and had my hair detangled properly! Even after accounts of letting them know they it didn't feel clean mid wash and would ask them to focus on certain areas, the person would get defensive and rude like I was asking for too much as a paying customer! Ridiculous, never again! read more

Well, I never thought I'd be writing this but I guess I should have read the salon reviews about the manager/salon rep being rude and unhinged and "banning" people who complain about their behavior. Looks like they double down and reject constructive feedback from people who have had similar experiences so I won't hold my breath for a civil response. Up until now I had had excellent service from Jeff and the team and this entire interaction was so incredibly bizarre. I received a text this evening stating my appointment scheduled for tomorrow morning was in the "middle of Jeff's" day and asking if I could move it to accommodate an install. I responded that I'd made the appt to accommodate my work schedule and then provided a time frame within their request that I was available. What followed was a series of agitated responses like "who are you talking to like this" which is so weird because I gave my availability to change appointments and the repeated it. At this point, I thought, this has to be a spam account because nobody would allow someone to represent their business this way. I tried to remain calm while firmly requesting that I be contacted by a manager or my stylist directly because this was such a weird response. I requested the person not to contact me again and they said they would be canceling my appointment and that "Jeff was ok with it" since I was "being nasty". Luckily, there are many talented Salon teams in Chicago who have staff that can communicate effectively and resolve conflict but I am sad that this salon isn't one of them. read more

Since 0 stars isn't available, 1 will have to do. I left this salon with HEAT DAMAGE from a blow dry and after politely bringing this to the owner's (Lailitha) attention via text, I was immediately greeted with a NASTY ATTITUDE that was unbecoming of a business owner. She was rude, unprofessional, and lacked empathy. Background: I have been coming here for over 3 years but more consistently for 1.5 years. It took my 3 tries to get a stylist that I liked and did good work. However, after my most recent blow dry and trim, I got home and immediately started to notice signs of heat damage. I understand mistakes happen and while I'm upset about my hair, I was not mad at the stylist. I have been natural my whole life and do not put heat in my hair except when I go to a salon to get it professionally blow dried and trimmed. No press. When I texted the owner of this heat damage, she immediately got defensive and asked me to provide pictures of my hair in the wet state before I went to her salon. Why would I have a picture of my hair soaking wet before a salon visit??? When I finally found one from a few years back, she then moved the goal post and said this isn't enough evidence. Mind you, I went to her shop on Friday and reported the heat damage that SAME Friday (I washed my hair immediately after when I realized my hair smelled burnt). She finally offered me a protein treatment but when I inquired if it was free, she gave me a nasty and uncalled for response and then insinuated that I may have cause this heat damage and she can't confirm her shop did it. That is ridiculous considering I am a regular AND THERE ARE CAMERAS IN THE SHOP BY THE WASH BOWL. She then refused to speak to me on the phone and denied my ask for a refund after she got rude via text with me. She said she would give a refund if there was evidence so I asked her to check the cameras and ask my stylist and she is refusing to do so. She is a liar and unprofessional. DO NOT come here if you value good customer service or your hair. read more

After waiting for an hour and 20 minutes, I was finally asked what size I wanted for my parts. Shortly after, I was informed that I had booked incorrectly and would be charged an additional $75 just to braid my roots. I did not make an error in my booking, and the website did not include the add ons section. The service costs $100 flat and does not specify sizes, it only clarifies the braiding of the roots of the hair. When attempting to add services, the site takes you back to the homepage instead of allowing you to enter details as with other services. Charging $175 to simply part and braid someone's roots is ridiculous! Additionally, my hair barely reaches my shoulders and isn't thick, and this does not even include a wash and blow dry. I have attached photos of the booking for reference. This was such a waste of time. I was patient while waiting for the hour and 20 minutes, and I don't even live in the area. I'm only giving two stars because the stylist was friendly. There is no reason why I couldn't have been asked about my booking during the hour and 20 minutes I spent sitting there. I was told that something could be worked out, but my original booking should have been honored, especially since my appointment was at 1:30 PM, and I didn't get into the chair until 2:40 PM, only to leave just 10 minutes later. This was my second time trying this place, and now I understand why I was advised not to go there. read more

I have came to EnvyMe several Times. Please go here if you want to eventually be disrespected. Their booking system is confusing and how they speak To people if there is a concern or question is completely unprofessional. The stylists are great, but they work for owner, and she isn't kind. After my last couple experiences, I will be finding a new salon. Tonight was the nail In the coffin. The way the owner and I believe her name is Teya speak to people is so unprofessional and the definition of gaslighting. I'm a loyal customer and I go to places for years for my hair, and I've never mistreated anyone and never had anyone treat me the way they have. I have a feeling the owner will respond very narcissistically and never own up to how she treats people. I wish this business owner the same energy she puts out into the world. read more

After going here for over a year, I now understand why people complain about the owner. If I could give the business owner a negative star I would. I had been going here for over a year and have referred at least 6 others here. But I recently experienced the most unprofessional, passive aggressive exchange ever. In May, I made an appointment for July 26th, with my regular stylist. I needed my hair done for an event and wanted to make sure I could get in. On July 10th the receptionist text me (didn't call) and told me my stylist had to cancel. I explained my situation and after I called the owner herself (who only previously sent a voice note), the owner put me on a waitlist for someone else. The reason for the cancellation (per the owner), "My stylist have lives and they want to go on vacation." (An easy fix to this is to black out days on the schedule for stylists so clients can't book). The next day the receptionist text me again (no phone call) and said an appointment became available (the appointment would be in 3 days) and I said I would take it. The receptionist asked me if I was able to bring my hair in a day before the appointment so the stylist could prep it and i responded "I will try, but this new appointment is short notice and my schedule may not permit this." The receptionist proceeds to tell me how it will take time out of my appointment if I don't and I responded with "I said I will try my best". The receptionist asked me if I was ok and then told the owner I was being disrespectful. The owner then sent me a long text (again, no call) telling me how I disrespected her staff and she was canceling my appointment (for a second time). She then proceeded to block my number. All of this because I said "I would try my best". Never in my life have I experienced something so strange and unprofessional. read more

My personal stylist did a great job over the course of 4 different occasions. In general the shop has a warm environment. Lots of diverse talent. However, after hearing about an experience a dear friend of mine had with the owner Lalitha, I will not be returning. After successfully beating cancer I sent them here to start growing their beautiful crown back. The entire appointment Lalitha kept speaking openly about the breakage and damage and asking the client what was going on. Not knowing she'd just beat a major disease. Poor etiquette and just tacky. Even if cancer wasn't the reason, you don't talk about someone's hair damage like that. It's just nasty. I often hear her gossiping when I can come in and can tell she's very messy but again I was not being serviced by here so I just steered clear. Knowing this now, I don't think I'll be going back. Also please just look at yelp and google reviews for yourself and you will find her arguing with old clients. She lacks decorum and is just too grown to act how she does. read more

Kierra did an amazing job on my daughter's silk press. 3-4 weeks later and it's still going strong. She was very prompt, detailed and collaborative. I will definitely be back. read more

Sierra did a wash, blow dry, silk press, and cut on my natural hair! I was super nervous going in because most places claim to be natural hair friendly but don't actually take the time to work with natural hair. Sierra took her time detangling and blow drying my natural hair and asked me several times if I was okay or if anything was uncomfortable for me. Also, they hand out SNACKS!!! Who doesn't want snacks during their appointment?! I was also offered coffee, water, or tea! The vibes were IMMACULATE. Whether you're extroverted, or introverted, like myself, the staff makes everyone feel comfortable and you can tell they all get along so well and I appreciate that! I will definitely be back to see Sierra! read more

Quine is the best ever! I moved to Chicago from Texas and was struggling to find someone to do my hair who would -1. Do a good job, 2. Charge a good price! Quinn is that stylist for me! She has done color, ends trims and silk presses and I have loved it every time! Everyone inside the shop is so kind and they are always asking if we need water or snacks or coffee! You're greeted as soon as you come in and you're never left waiting for too long! I love it here and will continue to go back !!! read more

I cannot tell you how happy I was with my experience at EnvyMe (but Imma try!!). From the very first interaction on the phone with the owner of the business, Lalitha, I felt like a valued customer and was well taken care of. She was patient and kind and answered all my questions (I had MANY!) and was able to get me a braiding appointment scheduled for the very next morning for 9a, which I was not expecting but appreciated so much! The hair gods must've been smiling on me because getting an appointment within 18 hrs of your first inquiry call is a real rarity, but I still appreciated everything Lalitha did to get me scheduled so quickly! My braider (Yana) was AMAZING-- she did excellent work, was easy to talk to and I felt extremely comfortable in her chair even after having really bad experiences at other shops -- something that typically makes it hard for me to trust and relax during the first appointment with a new stylist. The atmosphere was welcoming, laid back, but professional, the music choices were fire, and most of all, I LOVED how evident it was on the face of every single client that I saw come in or leave the salon that they were having a nice, relaxing time and walked out feeling and looking like a million bucks. It's a business, yes, but what is more evident is that it's also women sincerely and happily supporting and uplifting other women in more than just esthetics -- the vibe uplifts the spirit too. That's not easy to find in a salon. The fact Envy Me is a space by women of color for women of color is also really special. I loved my experience and will definitely be back! read more

My rating is a negative ZERO I had a great experience the first time I went loved my hair and service. When it was time for my touch up the appointment was confirmed but when I showed up they treated me horribly and said I had an attitude for getting the appointment wrong. I showed them the appointment time and how it was confirmed by them and they still told me I had an attitude. I live downtown close to north side and paid $32 each way in the Uber. I even asked if they had someone else that could do the retouch and just said no and basically kicked me out Once they realized they made the mistake someone came out and apologized and asked to rebook or wait. I declined because of how they treated me initially and this is what black businesses need to do better there are other places I can go. They expected me to accept there apology when it was clearly their fault and I would have if they didn't treat me so bad. I loved my initial service and hair but they are not the only place in Chicago that can provide this service. So sad how we treat each other. read more

The first time that I came here, I had a wonderful experience and loved the service I received. I decided to book again, since the experience was so great, but it was a totally different experience this time. I had an appointment at 9am for braids with one of their braiders. The stylist was late because apparently there was a staff meeting that went over. I waited for nearly 40 minutes before the stylist actually arrived, alongside the owner and other staff members. My stylist Landon did apologize for her tardiness, but because she was so late, my service did not actually begin until 10:40am, almost 2 HOURS after my scheduled time. I asked the receptionist what time I would be out, since my appointment was pushed back. After inquiring, the owner then decided to come over to me and offer what she considered apologies. Once my service actually began, the stylist Landon did do a great job on my hair, and I really do love the braids that I received. Once my service was nearly done, the receptionist came over to me and let me know that the owner, Lalitha, discounted my service by 25%. Once I actually completed the service and went to pay, the receptionist changed everything that she previously said entirely and now I was only getting 25$ off of my service. I was confused about this mix up, since nearly 20 minutes before she told me that I would receive 25%, so I did ask questions as to why the quoted discount changed. She claimed that the error in discount quoting was "her bad", and as I was leaving out of the door, I could hear her calling me "WEIRD" (how professional is that?). The workers, the owner Lalitha included, are extremely unprofessional, unprofessional, UNPROFESSIONAL. I tried to give this salon a chance, as I like supporting black owned businesses within my neighborhood, but the lack of professionalism was absolutely ridiculous. The styling is very good, but they truly need to work on having empathy and respect for the customer because it was not there at all during my visit. read more

I got braids there once and responded honestly to prompts about my service. I said that the stylist was pleasant but that the information about the style that I was given from the receptionist was different than what the braider; and that the website wasn't clear l and in the end, I didn't get the style I came in for. I received a few promotion emails and decided to book again. Someone (I suspect the owner) called me to change an appointment I'd made online, she was nice nasty to the extent that I asked to have my appointment cancelled. She then proceeded to remove me completely from the booking system, signaling to not come again as if that was going to happen. The whole situation was unprofessional and unfortunate. read more

Hands down, one of THE best salon experiences I have ever had. From my first step into the door, I was thoroughly impressed with EnvyMe hair studio. My stylist, LaLa, was kind, careful, and knowledgeable. She explained each aspect of my sew-in install with me-- deep cleansing wash and conditioning treatment included-- and made sure I was comfortable along the way. The entire staff was helpful and ran like a well-oiled machine. The ambiance was clean and gorgeous. They even had tea, coffee, and snacks available. ABOVE AND BEYOND! My stylist was wrapping up and had another client come in, so the owner, La, finished me up and got me styled. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. I am so happy that I chose this salon for my install and will definitely be back. As long as I've got hair on my head, I'm going to EnvyMe! read more

Updated review so you guys can see the work that is done here. Again, I started going to Envyme shortly after moving to Chicago from very humid Florida. Needless to say...my hair had a hard time adjusting and within a couple of months started falling out due to the harsh winter weather. I literally didn't have time to find a stylist. Anyway, all of my edges (ALL OF THEM) around my head fell out and my hair was breaking along with them. I asked one of my supervisors (a lifelong resident) for some referrals and one of them was Envyme. The first photo attached shows some of my edges before going to Envyme. The rest show you where I'm at a little over a year later. I think a lot of salons claim to know how to jump start your healthy hair journey, and Lord knows a lot of products claim to do so as well, but this salon truly does what it advertises. I want to note that I have not done my own hair in this year long journey. Meaning, when my hair isn't in a protective style, I do not touch it. I go to the salon every two weeks for a wash, conditioning treatment, and whatever else my stylist thinks I need (trim, protein, etc). When it is in a protective style I wash, condition and dry my hair (that's it) I go back to the salon for a take out, wash, condition (and whatever else my stylist thinks I need). I'll add that I think getting protective styles in addition to treatments when I had silk presses really helped in the growth of healthy length. Booking is easy and prices are transparent. When booking isn't so easy (sometimes my job pushing things around and I can't book until last minute) La is there to help. I had to update this review after my last appointment because I'm in awe of the turn around my hair has made in literally a year. These ladies are so talented. read more

I've been growing my hair out for two years!!! I thought coming to this studio, I was going to get better professional services on how to care for my hair and to have my ends professionally cut. I had a silk press done by a big booty girl named MARIAH. She was so rough on my hair and detangled with a tangle teaser instead of a wide tooth comb and my hair smelled BURNT upon leaving the shop... After wetting my hair, my ends were ripped apart I had tones of split ends. I didn't see anybody here with natural LONG hair other than the receptionist. Most of the staff are really young so prepare. Upon first walking in your going to see some young hair braiders. They look like high school girls and in the back its small and looks like something put together in the back of somebody's tiny beauty supply store. However, the staff was nice but, there a saying when people are too nice it's because they have to be!! The owner is sarcastic, gossipy, and tried to charged me $140 not for layers, extra product, a spa style treatment but, for a simple silk press with no curls for my ends being ripped off... Great option for hair styling but, if your focused on the health on your hair, I've had better services at a basic hair solon charging me $75 dollars read more

I have been going to EnvyMe for about a year and a half now. I have read the reviews and experienced the shop on a biweekly basis unless I get braids from the shop. ALL of the girls are very nice and welcoming. Most of them are HILARIOUS but never rude. La(the owner) has done my hair once and I loved it. The only reason I don't go to her is because she's out of my price range for biweekly services. I've read a lot of reviews and have seen the comments on how rude she is. That is false! I work with a lot of people and attitudes. She is far from rude. She is very direct and to the point. She focuses on her work and the client and makes sure the logistics of the shops (yes plural, multiple locations) run correctly. She also protects her girls! Which I admire because a lot people don't protect their most important assets. I started with one stylist who did amazing with my hair for a year but she moved. But after being at the shop for so long, I was committed to the shop because it was convenient, clean, welcoming, comfortable, and I knew who else I could go to and remain consistent on my hair journey. And they do great work! They all use the same products and work as a team. If my stylist couldn't wash or blow dry me. The other talented ladies could. I usually have never waited more than 10 minutes for my service. The longest I've ever waited was the weekend before Christmas. But I understood. EVERYONE wanted their hair done freshly for Christmas, so I waited! I have had cancellations from the stylist, because life happens, but they were always able to reschedule me with someone else who was talented and could do the job. The only negative thing is I absolutely have to make an appointment before I go or the person I want will not be available last minute. And to me that's a good problem to have. read more

I seen a recommendation for them on Facebook and called, the schedule was packed but I was able to be squeezed in for no extra fee. I wanted my natural hair cut and silked. The shampoo girl was scrubbing my scalp sooo good honey I had to get off my phone and enjoy the moment. Overall I had a great experience and my hair is healthy, bouncy, and luxurious. read more

My daughter and I had the absolute best experience at EnvyMe today. It was her first braiding appointment, and everyone in the salon was so warm. Our stylist Sam was amazing - so gentle and kind and incredibly talented. The front desk associate came to check on us several times to offer water or snacks. The energy of the whole salon was so positive. My daughter is thrilled with her braids and I am so grateful to have this place in our neighborhood! Thank you! read more

My hair looks great!! I don't live here, but I came to Chicago for a friend's graduation and she recommended this salon to me. I booked an appointment online and it was quick and easy. The day before my appointment, my stylist called to ask if I could come an hour earlier, which actually worked better for me. After I arrived, it was a great experience start to finish. The person at the front desk as kind and welcoming. She offered me a laptop station so that I could keep working and a secure location to put my bag while I was getting serviced. Asada did my wash and steam. She cleaned my hair well and was funny and professional. Brianna was my stylist and y'all, my hair looks great!! I decided to have her style it curly and offered me three options for curly looks, which I appreciated. I got so many compliments before I even left the salon and I've already recommended EnvyMe to my three other friends that live in Chicago. Job well done! read more

I don't know what is going on with this salon. Since braids have been added as a service the quality of service has gone down. You book a braid appointment and then you receive an email that your stylist isn't going to be there. Then you block her book so no one will book and you make sure those clients get appropriately scheduled. You have multiple people calling you to reschedule and none of them communicate with each other and the salon owner is unorganized and unprofessional. Treat your clients better. I came on cinco de mayo to get a silk press. The stylist had two other clients at the same time as me. All of the stylist left her there by herself to do everything while they went to eat tacos and drink. I got there at 3:45 and didn't get out until after 7. My hair isn't event that long yet. It's too much going on at this salon . They can not keep up with their appointments. They leave you sitting at the shampoo bowl or under the steamer because they are triple booked. Do better. It's like this salon is going back to the 90's with all the confusion and the chaos. Get it together! read more

The attitude of the owner is enough to AVOID this place! She has a horrible attitude and absolutely no respect for her customer/clients. Several of the stylists are great but the owner is enough reason to avoid! read more

I always wait until after several visits before I write a review on a hair salon, just in case the first experience was a fluke and so I can have several experiences to make a well rounded decision. Let me make this clear from the jump, there is no denying that Lalitha is talented. She knows hair and you are guaranteed to leave her chair looking your absolute best. Visit 1. Lalitha was under the weather but she didn't cancel on me at all, which was highly appreciated. As soon as I arrived for my appointment, Capri immediately took me to the wash bowl. She gave me one of the best shampoo I've ever received. She did not leave my head hanging in the wash bowl all day either - she was about her business! She got me under the steamer and then she blow dried my hair to prep me for servicing by Lalitha. Once I got in her chair it took no longer than 15 minutes for her to style my hair beautifully! So overall, I was impressed and couldn't wait to make my next appointment. Now, Visit 6. I absolutely love going here. My hair is healthy, shiny, bouncy and growing! Several friends and family have commented on how much better my hair has been looking and how it's starting to really grow. I think maybe the steaming has something to do with it, but idk. I was a little nervous about whether my hair would be heat damaged because I've been getting it silk pressed every two weeks. I'm happy to report that I just returned from Florida and that humidity and ocean water made it do what it do, and my natural curl pattern was fully intact!!! Actually, it looked even healthier than before. Definitely do yourself a favor & come check it out here. As the wall says in the salon, " You get what you pay for!" read more

$35 to detangle my hair was unreasonable being that my hair was not mated or tangled in the slightest. Being charged $35 was also unreasonable to "trim" my ends. Stylist was gentle but not well versed in silkening natural hair that has not been "trained". Atmosphere was pleasant and music was nice. The best part of the service was the wash. Other than that I don't think paying $155 was worth my end results. read more

LOVED LOVED LOVED THE SERVICE I RECEIVED! I was assisted by Assata and she did such a great job with my service as well as another I watched her do . Assata was attentive, kind and diligent with myself and her other client. The service I received was a shampoo , deep condition and blow dry . It literally felt like a massage I nearly fell asleep . The service I watched her do we're stitch braids and they were very neat and pretty. That client also appreciated her service . During my visit I was offered different snacks and drinks during my service which enhanced my experience. I would definitely come again . Sorry I don't have any photos . read more

I booked a last-minute rush appointment and Lalitha made sure that the stylist got me out at my desired time. She runs a tight ship and is super professional -- a quality that is missing at a lot of salons. I will definitely be back to support her business and recommend EnvyMe to friends. read more

All I can say is wow. From the moment I walked into the salon, I knew I was going to be happy. The salon is beautiful. It is in such a cute space and it will shock you how nice it is. I feel like a lot of the nicer salons are usually tiny, there is plenty of room in this salon. I went super early and there was only 1 other person there, but even if there had been 5 other people, there was plenty of room. Capri did a great job washing my hair. I read some of the previous reviews on here and there were a few complaints. I don't know if those complaints were true, but you can tell that Capri and Lalitha do not want them to happen again. They have clearly learned from the complaints, because both of them made sure I was OK every step of the way. Capri was absolutely amazing and very gently with my hair. My hair felt great after she was done. Now on to Lalitha. She is amazing. She really took her time to explain everything to me. I felt so comfortable with her and she made it clear that I should not be scared to ask her questions. She even told me I could text or facetime her! I love that she made me feel important and that she truly cares about my hair. Now that I have written a novel haha, I should probably talk about my hair. I have been natural for about a year and a half and have not had a silk press. Lalitha gave me the best silk press ever. I have been swinging my hair around ever since I left! It feels and looks amazing, you can tell she did not damage my hair. I have finally found my forever hair home! Thank you!! read more

EnvyMe Hair Studio is exactly where any women looking to grow HEALTHY hair needs to go in the Chicagoland area. When I arrived at EnvyMe my hair was a complete MESS. I had color in my hair that my hair couldn't handle. I've been going to La at Envy since April and my hair is so healthy even with a new color (done by La). Ladies pay the coins. I've never left the salon not loving my hair. Every time I'm out folks always ask me where do I go! La is also honest with what you can get done and what you can't. She keeps it all the way real.
