    I bought a voucher on Gilt for a haircut and balayage. The salon is big, clean and open which I really liked. I've had balayage highlights done twice before at different salons and this was the best experience I've had yet. Jenna completely nailed what I was asking for and the color turned out perfect. I would definitely go back to her. She checked up on my highlights as it was processing which comforted me because the last time my hair was over processed. It was an extra $20 for toner which I knew going into it and was so worth it for me because my coloring is exactly what I wanted. They offered complementary drinks, hung up my coat and gave advice on products and styling. I have nothing negative to say at all! Thank you!

    I really did not want to have to write this review but Genacelli left me no choice. After a color that I was unsatisfied with, I went back for an adjustment and was absolutely mortified by what was done to my hair (picture attached). I did not feel comfortable going back there for a third time so I went elsewhere to get it fixed which cost me a lot of money and time. I emailed Genacelli asking for a refund and was told by the owner and colorist that they do not do refunds. I am truly disappointed with my experience and would not have written this review if they just refunded me for the terrible service I received. There are a bunch of amazing salons in Chicago with great colorists and customer service but Genacelli is not one of them.

    My hair is angled. Cut & balayage with Jenna!

    I am over the moon with my cut & balayage appointment with Jenna. She was so attentive to exactly what I wanted. My hair was actually botched 9 months ago by a different big salon. I explained my situation to her. I really only wanted 1/2 an inch cut & balayage highlights. Jenna did exactly that & thinned out my old unwanted bob at the back. She made my ends a bit cooler by making them not super straight. The cut & balayage are perfect. Jenna made conversation, but wasn't overly chatty. I'm so glad I found this salon on Gilt City. It is large, clean, modern, and nicely decorated. The Kerastase products smell amazing. Yes this place is pricey, but I will definitely be back in the future!

    Can't say enough of how great Lira and team are! First found Lira Guzi after a botched hair…read moreappointment with another salon and have never gone anywhere else. As someone with darker hair, I'm extremely particular about coloring my hair, and at LG I've always felt my hair is treated with extreme care and expertise. I no longer live in Chicago, but make special trips out just to have my hair done here! If you're looking for a salon in Chicago, look no further, u won't be disappointed!!

    I cannot say enough good things about Lira Hair Salon. I came in after a disastrous visit to a…read moreso‑called "blonde specialist" who completely ruined my hair while trying to take me from brunette to blonde. My hair was damaged, uneven, and honestly I was scared to try again. Lira changed everything. She not only helped me achieve the blonde I originally wanted, but she did it in a way that protected my hair and brought it back to life. My color looks beautiful, natural, and exactly how I envisioned it. Even better--my hair is actually growing back and feeling healthy again. Lira is truly a master of her craft. She listens, she cares, and she knows exactly what she's doing. If you're thinking about going blonde or need someone to fix a color gone wrong, she's the one you want in your corner. Absolutely worth every visit.
