I went to Exposed for a hair cut the other night, and it was definitely one of the best I have ever gotten! I have already received so many compliments, and I told them all I went to Exposed in Lombard. The owner Anna does a fantastic job, and she is just so down to earth. For a salon that provides such high-quality service and style, they have none of the attitude that usually accompanies those things, and their prices are very reasonable as well. Highly recommended! read more

I went here based off of the reviews on Yelp. It's disgusting how they think they can get away with fucking their customers over like this. I had a stylist named Bianca, who told me she taught people how to style hair. I went in for a deep conditioning treatment. I asked her to blow dry my hair so that it waved out at the bottom. She blow-dryed my hair, and it started to feel tacky! When she was done, my hair was similar to straw. And then she proceeded to flat iron my hair into curls. Everywhere. I left with the most damaged hair I've ever seen. Dry. Brittle. A whole bunch of new split ends. And I looked like Dolly Parton. Nonetheless, I gave her a $10 tip, because I like to tip generously. They charged me $35. When I got home later that day, I saw what bad condition my hair was in and ran to the nearest Target to purchase deep conditioning treatments and repair serums. It cost me $45 for those products. I emailed the salon asking politely if they could reimburse me for destroying my hair. One week; no reply. Then my bank statement came and said they charged me $45 instead of the $35 I was notified about. I called there salon three times, two days in a row during their open hours. No answer. By now, they are lucky if I don't show up and bitch them out. Shit service. They obviously don't know what they're doing, and all they care about is making money off of decent people. I would not recommend this place, even for a trim. If anything, I would've much rather gone to a cheap hair cuttery like Great Clips. And I'm 100% that all the good reviews on here are just friends of the employees or fake accounts to make them look better than they really are. What a shame. read more

I am sorry to the ladies at Exposed because I did think they were very nice people but.....I have to agree with the other reviewers that something is up with the rave reviews of this place. I am seriously feeling like I got burned by "yelp" for the first time. I agree with the others that the place has a crowded storefront feel. But my issue with the decor has to do with the cleanliness factor. I was put in a chair surrounded by not just one persons hair but what looked like several other peoples hair. There was also hair all over the countertop and when she opened up a cabinet to grab out a drier....you guessed it! More hair! So much that I seriously question when the place was giving a good cleaning. And it wasn't just the hair....it was just plain dirty. Even the mirror I was given to check out my hair was full of finger prints and dirt from salon products or something. Then what was the worst for me was how loaded the brushes and combs were with other peoples hair. I have never experienced such a dirty salon and believe me....I am not a psycho neat freak either. This was just that bad. Then, again to the ladies at Expo, I am sorry but someone needs to comment on the age factor because it is factor. These ladies are very nice and I know age shouldn't matter but I need to know what to expect. If you go to Exposed......expect stylists much older than you might be accostmed to elsewhere as in like pushing 60 or more, and I am not even kidding you! I have never experienced anything like this at a salon. Usually if you think about it, mosts better salons have younger stylists. Call me discriminatory with age but I want my stylists to be young, trendy and current with today's styles. That is not what you will get with Anna or her Mom. I seriously do think friends gave the other reviews. My haircut was ok. I went from longer hair to a bob. But hey bob's just work with my hair so I am not so sure there is anything special about this cut for $45! I guess I learned today that there is more to a "haircut" then just the outcome. You have to be comfortable with the asthetics of the salon and I absolutely was not! I suggest you do a "walk-buy" first if you are still considering it after the questionable "positive" reviews and I will bet you don't become a "walk-in". Something is definiely not right with this salon! I am just glad I decided at the last minute to just go with a cut and skip the color. read more

I have been getting my hair done at Exposed for several years! I have my hair done by Megan and she is so frickin amazing! She listens to what I want and executed it with perfection!!! I would highly recommend Exposed. The new location is fabulously decorated! They have the finest products as well! Give them a try! read more

Made an appointment for a deep conditioning treatment after having bleached my hair myself. Afterwards, they asked if I wanted to blow dry my hair for an extra $25. I guess they let their clients sometimes leave with sopping wet hair? I had my stylist blow dry it and had asked her to blow dry my hair inwards. She took a straightener to my already damaged hair and straightened it to the point of burnt, frazzled dryness. Leaving my hair in a worse state than I came in with. Never again. read more

Exposed salon, and excellent place for a terrible haircut...they charged me $30 for doing the opposite of what I asked for and had me facing a brick wall the entire time so I couldn't see what was going on. I walked in a little bit on the shaggy side and walked out looking like I was going into basic training. I don't recommend it unless you want total crap. read more

I have naturally curly, fine hair, thus, very difficult to cut. You absolutely need to know what you're doing in order to cut this kind of hair well. Anna Maria, the owner, is awesome! I walked in and told her I wanted to update my hair but was nervous given the type of hair I had. She looked over my hair, made suggestions, showed me pictures and ultimately, gave me a fantastic haircut! I love it. Not only is Anna sweet and puts you at ease immediately, but she is great at what she does. One complaint that I do have is that some of the girls at the salon smoke. While I believe they smoke outside, there is always a presence of smoke that either wafts in or can be smelled on someone walking by. Since I am a non-smoker, and look to relax and enjoy myself at any salon I patron, this is definitely something that the salon should work to eliminate. But, overall, this complaint won't stop me from returning. read more

If you want a dedicated hair stylist who will work with you to get the hair cut of you dreams go to Exposed Salon. I have been getting my hair cut by Anna for close to a year and I love this hair style. Book an appointment - you are in and out within a short time just looking great with a hair style that will last. Highly recommend! read more

This place is fantastic ... I have never written a review for any place whatsoever, but this place deserves it! Everyone is SO nice ... I had my hair cut and LOVED them. Came back for a straightening treatment and was blown away by them! Also had my brows done, and those look great! They know their stuff and the prices are reasonable! They are incredibly nice too! Can NOT beat it! Go there ... really! You won't regret it! read more

I have been going to Anna since she was a college student in Naperville working not too far from where her Salon is now. I've watched her grow into a compassionate woman with so much to offer to her clients and continues to learn new techniques. She has started up and relocated her Salon and continues to grow her business with an excellent staff along with wonderful stylists. I would recommend Exposed to anyone looking for a simple cut to a new creative look. I have always trusted Anna with my hair for 20+ years and l have always been happy with the results. Try Exposed . . read more

I personally went through a life changing event and decided to spice my life with extensions. I have to applaud the ladies at Exposed because they made me look absolutely fabulous and I started to receive many compliments with my new look! Thanks to Diane, Katie, and Anna for everything! You girls rock! read more

I am very particular with my hair and Exposed salon did my hair proud. Anna was my stylist and she did an awesome job. I had highlights put in my hair and they were not too bold which was perfect. I showed her the picture of the cut I wanted and it was almost the same. Everyone at the salon was very nice and I plan on returning.... read more

Trendy salon with great service. Front desk is very helpful and Max is awesome for color and haircuts. Definitely recommend!

I previously had a bad cut (I have curly hair) and my layers were butchered. Diane gave me a great cut and I will definitely be returning. The whole staff was extremely friendly. read more

Loving my hair!!!!! Have been looking for new salon and this is it!!! Place is gorgeous and staff is very friendly!!!

What a joke these reviews are - click the button at the bottom that says "not recommended reviews" and read all the horrible reviews of this salon. These other reviews are fake. Took 6 months to get my hair back to normal after the hack job that was done here. DO NOT GO HERE - my hair was orange - (I asked for highlights), my hair could not have looked worse or been more damaged. read more

I have been to several hair salons in Lombard, and nothing tops the friendly service that I receive when I walk in the door at Exposed. I was tired of all of those "attitude" salons where no one says hello to you...They make you feel comfortable and most importantly, they listen to what you would like done with your hair, and what you don't want done! The end result, a great haircut in a friendly environment..highly recommended! read more

Anna, you and your staff are the best! I can't thank you enough for fixing my hair today and how nice you all were to me. It means alot to me and I have NEVER received such great customer service before anywhere. I wish you a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY in Vegas this weekend. I must say you are the best hair colorist in IL. And I am blessed to have found you. I LOVE MY HAIR!!!! Denise A. read more

Katie is still banging out the best haircuts and highlights around. No matter what I want she seems to understand exactly what i am talking about. Anna your place Rocks!!!!! Thanks for being close to home and have a fantastic salon. read more

I used to work in the area, and I miss coming here to get my hair cut. If the distance wasn't an issue, I would definitely go back.

Great place! My hair always looks amazing when I go here. It is a little bit on the expensive side but besides that I love it! Go see terri Ann, she only comes on Saturday but she is one of the best there! read more

I found this salon through Yelp, and I found the ratings to be spot on. I've had my hair cut by Jasmine twice now, and I totally loved both cuts! She does a great job, knows what would look good with your face shape, and she's affordable! Definitely recommend her. read more

My wife did a long drawn research to find a place that she could trust like in our home country. Setup something here and went in and came out looking awesome and feeling happy. She is going again this weekend! read more

Exposed is a bonified full service hair salon with an urban energy. Anna is the owner. No matter what, she is sincere and takes a personal interest in her clients. Every time she does my hair, if I change the style or color, she delivers. Affordable prices and a friendly staff deserving 5 stars. read more

Anna is amazing! I live in Oak Park and it was a bit of a drive but so worth it. Anna is very talented - my hair color and haircut are gorgeous and I get loads of compliments. I have curly hair and Anna gave me such a great cut and brought it back to life with a lot of bounce. The color looks like my hair was sun-kissed and very natural which is exactly what I requested. Anna is also probably one of the nicest most genuine person I've ever met. I highly, highly recommend her. read more

Had my first appointment at Exposed with Santos today! So beyond thrilled with the results. I was growing out my hair from really bad cut and he worked miracles with both cut and color. Thanks Santos! read more

Ive been going blond for the past 3 years now, with breaks of going darker. i have never had my hair look so naturally blond before. i get compliments all the time. i referred two girls that worked at a restaurant that i went to the other night. it was adorable! they came and searched for me to ask where i got my hair done and i told them about this salon. i think its also really comforting that everyone in the salon, stylists and customers, can easily chat with one another. i def recommend this salon! read more

I highly recommend this salon for haircuts. I've been consistently getting my hair cut by Jenee for about two years now. I have changed my hairstyle a lot over the years, and Jenee has always been the laid-back stylist I've turned to when wanting to take a bit of a risk. I walked in with medium length ombre hair and plenty of dead ends that reached just past my shoulders and asked Jenee to chop it off to an extra curly chin-length bob. A few months later, I had her cut it into a shorter, edgier pixie cut. When I decided to grow my hair out, I went back in for a trim to avoid the dreaded awkward mullet phase that comes when you're growing out a short cut. The only reservation might apply to women of color: I have hair that is thin and wavy which most American stylists are trained to cut, but like many brown girls know, it's pretty difficult to lift color on our extremely dark brown hair - something that the stylists didn't seem too aware of. I have gotten pretty used to dying my hair on my own, and have determined that I need some pretty hefty dye or some pre-bleaching, but I decided I'd at least get burgundy peek a boos in my non-virgin hair professionally done. I appreciated skipping pre-bleaching to avoid extra damage to my hair, but my 40 bucks ended up yielding pretty invisible results. I eventually dyed my hair again myself to bring out the color. read more

Went in for a haircut, and loved it !!! Anna was really great, understood exactly what I wanted and got right down too it. Gave me a color gloss for my hair too, which turned out awesome :) I would definitely recommend this place. read more

I had a cut and highlights with Sara. She is so sweet and personable. However, when I got highlights they came out uneven and very bright! ( like platinum blonde!) I was so disappointed with the job that I came back another day to get more toner on my hair to make it blend more.........it helped a little bit but it was still not even AT ALL. I still had chunks of random planning blonde highlights. I was embarrassed to put my hair into a ponytail! :( After this visit I decided to try a different salon. read more

Sarah is amazing! She really listens to me and gives me exactly what I want. I'm very particular about getting my hair cut and Sarah never minds at all. The prices are very reasonable! read more

I get my hair cut, colored and highlighted by Sara at Exposed Salon and she is so patient and amazing I would highly recommend her!!! She is so patient, shows me color samples and explains what she is going to do every time and I know most stylists do that but she also welcomes your input and really performs miracles!!!!! I love love love my hair!!!!!!! read more

My stylist is Megan and I think she does a great job. I tried many people when I moved here but wasn't impressed. I found Exposed Salon on Yelp. Not conveniently located but worth the drive. Megan gives consistently great haircuts and color. I couldn't be happier. read more

I was referred to Exposed by a co-worker. I have been there twice and Jenee was my stylist. That girl has talent! First visit was highlights and a haircut which I loved! I had an evening appt and when I got home my husband and sons commented on how great I looked. That made me feel good. Second visit was recent and this time Jenee suggested that I get a color touchup instead of highlights. Again, it looked awesome and I want to commend her on great work. read more

They can always get me in, even without an appointment. I have never had a bad experience! The salon girls are very sweet and I especially like going there for brows. Their parking lot is small but I have never had a problem getting a space. Give it a try! read more

Never been to this salon before and had a trial run for a bridal updo. I loved it so much, that I booked my appt for the day of the wedding. 5 bridesmaids and two little girls also booked appts for that morning. We had the entire salon to ourselves that morning...which was fantastic! They also provided a fresh fruit tray, coffee, water, etc. Diana did my updo even better on the day of the wedding! All the girls raved about how nice everyone is and how fun it was to have the place to our own in the morning. She did such a great job, every hair stayed in place (but did not look like a brick) even after my groom accidently dropped me during a "dip" walking out of the church! Have gone back for haircuts and colors. Love them! read more

Loved it! I've gone to another salon for YEARS... but my colorist has been on maternity leave FOREVER. I found the salon through YELP and decided to give it a shot. When I called I explained how picky I am, what I wanted and that I was on a short time line. They got me right in with Katie. She listened to me and worked with me to choose the right color combo for my hair. She put in a ton of foils, just the way I like it! My hair is fabulous! I am so pleased! The salon is not fancy but that is ok with me because I don't enjoy going to the stuffy salon's where everyone is dressed like they are going clubbing. I want to RELAX! Katie was fun to chat with while she worked on me. I'll go again - for sure! read more

Family owned and run business. Per other reviews, I went to get my hair permed. The staff was very friendly. My hair turned out great. They mentioned things that other stylist hadn't. I appreciated their knowledge and helpfulness. Lots of love and kindness from the owners. read more

I recently moved to the Lombard area and was in dire need of a cut and color. With no one to turn to, I began browsing online salon reviews. Since Exposed received several reviews (mostly positive), I decided to take the plunge. Anna is not only warm and friendly, but she also possesses a keen eye for style and color. As I approach 50, my desire to maintain a young (but not too young) hairstyle is strong. I must say, Anna did not disappoint me. It is a relief to find a professional who truly is a professional. Following our consultation, she delivered precisely what she had promised - fun, vibrant, healthy looking hair. Thank you!! read more

I have been going to Exposed Salon since their early days in the original location. Staff have always been cheery and attentive. Anna gives a fabulous cut and style for my long, layered hair. My mom has been going to Anna for cuts and color for just as long. She always loves the outcome and how Anna really follows what she asks for. Stylists often times try to do what they think you'd look best with rather than what the client likes. Not Anna. This weekend I had my first appointment in the new space and I'm in love! The décor is absolutely fabulous. The space is so bright and contemporary. I highly recommend Exposed! read more
