Esteban is a great hairdresser. I found him through Yelp and have been using him for a year now. He is very friendly and skilled! You will be very happy with your choice to use him! read more

Esteban has been my go to barber for more than a year. Not many places can do east Asian hair well but I have never been disappointed with my cut. He's very friendly and always keeps a comfortable atmosphere for his customers. Unfortunately I'm moving away so I won't be able to come in anymore but I highly recommend Esteban's services! P.S. he's very knowledgeable about hidden spots in the area and very good food spots so it's worth asking about his recommendations! read more

I have been coming to see Esteban for 26 years. I get a hair cut every week as my hair grows very fast. Everytime I get it cut I feel like a new man! He now cuts all my kid's hair and all their buddies. read more

Esteban is an incredible stylist and gives a cut at a great price. Highly recommend to anyone!

I've been getting my hair cut by Esteban for 23 years, and I can confidently say he's more than just a hairstylist--he's a true artist and an amazing person. He is always positive and welcoming, making every visit feel like catching up with an old friend. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about their craft and their clients, Esteban is your person. He's simply the best! read more

I was traveling and overdue for a cut. Came to Esteban on a friend's referral -- quality cut, fast and efficient. Laid back environment. If I'm ever in Chicago again and need a cut this is where I'm going!!!! read more

Esteban always does a superb job, fits me into his busy schedule, and works quickly. I've been coming to him for years and plan to continue.

Esteban happily accommodated us at the last minute on a busy day and did an OUTSTANDING job on our squirmy baby/toddler son's first haircut. He listened to what we were looking for and delivered exactly that! He clearly knew what he was doing with baby hair, worked quickly, and kept our son happy and entertained the whole time. We are very happy with our experience and this cut. Thanks Esteban!! read more

Esteban is amazing! He's very talented and easy to talk to. He's been cutting my hair for about a year and I wouldn't dream of letting anybody else do it. He's consistently fantastic and I feel more confident after I leave. Some celebrities get their hair cuts here and it's easy to see why. Esteban is incredible at what he does and is an even better person. read more

I have been going to Esteban for over 20 years. Recently moved out of the Chicagoland area and miss him so much. It is really hard to find a good Stylist, and when you do just stick with him. He is very talented, super accomodating and cuts my hair in a very consistent way that it always is perfect. I have recommended many people to him and once they go to him, they continue to come back. On top of that he has become a good friend and we always have great conversations. I would highly recommend giving Esteban a try, and I promise you will not turn back. read more

Esteban gave me my first excellent haircut since I moved here and I am so happy. His welcoming personality along with his expertise at making my hair look great all makes me eager to return again and again to keep looking good! He has a loyal customer now! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND visiting his salon! read more

I took my daughter to Esteban for the first time the other day and he did an AMAZING job on her hair! She is only 19 months old and gets nervous when getting her hair cut. But he was not only professional, he was so personable, kind and funny with her. He made us both feel so welcome! And he had a very calm demeanor. My daughter had the best time! And she got the best cut of her life!! read more

Esteban's Aesthetic - My daughter's haircut by Esteban! - Hair Salons Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Esteban was great. Super friendly and a fantastic haircut. I would definitely recommend

Very nice and clean! Her was so patient with my 4yr old and gave him an excellent haircut!

I highly recommend Esteban! He has been cutting my hair for several years - long styled or short styled, whatever style I've been looking for he's done a top notch job. I found him through a friend, whose hair always looked great, and he pointed me to Esteban. Not only is the haircut great, so is the experience. Esteban is a genuinely nice guy. He has a great personality, makes good conversation, listens carefully for what style you're looking for and never rushes you. He also accommodates what tend to be my last minute appointments. And, the bonus is that the price is very reasonable! read more

I have been to Esteban twice and he did a great job. I look forward to future visits!

I cannot thank and recommend Esteban more highly for the job he did cutting my 2.5 year old son's hair. Like many 2.5 year olds, my son HATES getting his haircut. We have tried several different places throughout the city of Chicago. Esteban was by far the best. He made both my son and me as the parent feel welcomed. He allowed me to sit on the chair with my son on my lap. He spoke softly to my son, gave him toy cars to hold, and was very accommodating. Not only that, Esteban squeezed us in for an appointment Christmas week. Getting a young kid's haircut can be very stressful as a parent. Esteban put our minds at ease and did a fantastic job on the haircut (having to fix a lot of the mistakes I made trying to cut my son's hair at home :)). Thank you, Esteban! read more

I've been going to Esteban for 3 years ever since I moved to Lincoln park. He does such a great job and is an amazing person! Highly recommend you stop by if you recently moved. read more

I don't often complete reviews for services outside the culinary scene, but Esteban is more than a worthy exception. Simply put, this guy knows what he's doing. And for an unbelievably reasonable charge of $20. I have lived in the area for about 6 months and had no success with getting my hair cut- I've tried 5 different places with limit success. My most recent endeavor had my hair completely butchered, with different lengths on each side and far shorter than I asked. Esteban took the time to ask what I wanted, and quickly and efficiently worked his magic. He cuts hair so effortlessly it seems almost suspicious... but it's the real deal. I left with my hair fixed and thrilled to finally find a competent stylist in the area. If you're a guy looking for a quality, high-end haircut, this is the place to go. And you'll save twenty bucks on the other spots. read more

The BEST haircut $20 can buy. I have been going to Esteban for over a year. He knows what he is doing and is a real professional. He is much better and cheaper than Floyd's down the street. He is fun and very accommodating on making appointments. Bonus: He is also a foodie, and has great recommendations to different food places around Chicago. read more

I've been going to Esteban for the past 16 years. When I had my first haircut from Esteban, I knew I finally found someone I can consistently go to. I have not had my hair cut by anyone else in that whole time (except once but that was in Europe). He definitely knows what he's doing...which is why I'm still a customer after all these years. APPTS: If I have an afternoon off, I call first to see if he is available for a certain time that same day. If my desired time is not available, he will offer an alternate time and fit me in. WAIT TIME: If I have to wait, it's no problem since he is efficient and moves from one customer to another easily. WALK-IN: I try not to do this. But when I did and the next available slot is a bit later, I just walk around since there's much to offer in that area - diners, fast food, bakeries, Best Buy, Starbucks, Walgreens, Trader Joe's. But I return a bit earlier than the appt time just in case he is done with the previous customers earlier than expected. SERVICE: With a smile and great conversation! Very professional and personable. Pleasant demeanor. He always asks what I would like even though I've been going to him for so long and he probably knows my standard answer. But I appreciate him asking each time. RESULTS: I am always happy with the results! And I ALWAYS get compliments from my co-workers and friends after getting a haircut. Always. PARKING: Street parking (metered and permit) in that area. Or I just walk from my neighborhood (East Lakeview). Without doubt, I highly recommend Esteban for his personal and excellent service. If new to Chicago or looking for someone new, give him a try! read more

I've looked everywhere for a decent place to get a haircut around Lincoln Park for under $20. I had pretty much given up hope after heading to the local Hair Cutterys/Great Clips, where you never get the same person and they only know how to cut hair with clippers. That is until a co-worker referred me to Esteban. He's super nice and knows what he's doing. What's most important to me is that he gets Asian hair, which is stick straight and super coarse. If you don't understand it, I end up with an afro. Whenever I walk in, he remembers me and what I want my hair to look like. And he delivers, consistently. Convenient hours, good location, and great price! So glad my co-worker told me about him. read more

5-star service, for only $20. I have been going to Esteban for about 7 years now after being recommended by two different people: a coworker and my roommate. Even while living in Wicker Park I still made the trek up to Lincoln Park to ensure I got a great haircut. I moved away from Chicago for about 3 years, and when during weekends back to visit I always tried to set up an appointment with Esteban! Esteban's Aesthetic is located across the street from the Best Buy on Clark - if you don't look you might miss this hidden gem. I highly recommend trying out Esteban! Great for: Students Lincoln Park Professionals Men/Women Time crunch hair cut (seems he can always squeeze you in) Getting your hair cuts and attending one of Esteban's customer appreciation parties with tequila or sangria! read more

I got the best haircut I've ever gotten in my life at Esteban's Aesthetic today. My old barbershop had long waits and wouldn't take appointments, so I found Esteban based on his reviews here. He got me in right away, was so friendly, and did a really terrific job with my (admittedly, difficult to cut, very curly) hair. I'd highly recommend him and he's my new go-to guy. read more

Great haircut and a fantastic stylist!!! Would highly recommend and will definitely be going back!

I've been going to Esteban since I moved up to Chicago 4 years ago. From a male perspective, he's the best. He's very reasonably priced ($17 a cut), he's friendly (We work on my Spanish speaking skills while getting cut), and he's good with hair. During those 4 years, I've moved neighborhoods, I've tried out a couple other places just to test the waters, but I always end up coming back here for a cut. I can't recommend him enough. Please note that Esteban rents a chair inside "Studio Hair Trend" at the same location. read more

I was looking for a new salon when I found Esteban via Yelp about 2 years ago. Esteban provides great service, is always friendly, is flexible (you don't need to plan a haircut weeks in advance!), and he may have you outta there in 10 minutes (with no sacrifice in quality). read more

I have been one of Esteban's customers since 2002. He provides high quality service for an affordable price. I'm usually able to schedule a same day appointment when I'm in the neighborhood. I would highly recommend him to anyone in search of new hair stylist. read more

I've lived in the neighborhood for a couple years, found Esteban pretty quickly, and been going to him for my haircuts ever since. He consistently does an excellent job and is super flexible with scheduling appointments. Great conversation, too. Highly recommend! read more

Esteban is awesome! I started going around 6 years ago after my new Chicago friends referred me to him. Many of them have since moved away and miss visiting Esteban. He is super friendly, fast and the price is right for someone that knows what they're doing. Try him out and you won't be disappointed. read more

I have been getting my haircut by Esteban for about 4 years now. Even though I have moved all over the city in that time, I still come here to get my hair cut. It's fast, fairly priced and the haircuts are always great. read more

For years after my barber retired I simply could not find a person to cut my hair to my satisfaction. Therefore, on the advice of a coworker, I tried Esteban. That was 8 years ago. I have not let another person cut my hair since. Esteban is extremely proficient, consistent (a big one for me), professional and reasonably priced. Highly recommend him to everyone looking for a new barber/hair stylist. read more

Esteban is awesome. He is a terrific hair stylist, a wonderful man and fun to chat with. You cannot go wrong with Esteban.

When it comes to haircuts, I'm very particular. In fact, I used to cut my own hair and my justification was that if somebody's going to screw up my hair, it might as well be me. After dissappointment after dissappointment from other barbers in Chicago, my friends convinced me to try Esteban. The man is a genius!!! Not only that, but he's very laid back and easy to talk to. read more

Esteban is maybe the BEST hair stylist in Chicago. He's accessible, affordable and gives me such a great haircut every time I see him. I used to have to get my haircut every 3-4 weeks but his method saves me another week or 2 before I need another one. I always get comments on my hair and I don't even have to use product! Esteban is also very personable too. Great conversations. He is the nicest coolest guy on the block. Check him out!!! read more

Esteban is a cool guy and know well what he's doing. I've cut my hair with him since 2005 after moving to Chicago, I tried a few other places and didn't like them until I found him. You can tell him exactly what you want and what you don't, i.e I don't like to use clippers on my hair, so he always cuts my hair with scissors. It's pretty cheap and he takes his time till you are fully satisfied. If you are planning to cut your hair on the weekends or after work I'd recommend to make an appointment since he has gotten more and more customers lately. You can always show up but you'll probably have to wait for a while. read more

Esteban is fantastic! My boyfriend recommended him to me, and he has been cutting my hair for three years now. Esteban is highly skilled, efficient, friendly, and knows exactly how I want my hair cut. And he makes sangria that is out of this world! read more

I've been going to Esteban's for over 15 years now. You won't find a better deal in the city. The man could easily charge twice as much he's that good...but that's the kind of character he has. Besides his skills he is an exceptional person...and I have the honor of calling him a friend. read more

Esteban's Aesthetic's is a great place for women and men to get a haircut. My wife and I have been coming to him for our grooming needs for 12 years now. Great location, great service, and he make us look amazing. He is also a great person, and you also will have great conversations. read more
