I recently moved into the area and was in desperate need of a haircut. I found Sonya's shop and decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did. This has quickly become my favorite hair salon. I have short, fine, and very thin hair, which isn't always easy to cut well. Sonya gave me the best haircut I think I've ever had and then took the time to show me how to style it at home so I could get the same results myself. That alone impressed me. More recently, I went out of town for what I thought would be a week but ended up being almost three. Anyone with short hair knows you can't go very long without a trim. While I was away, my hair still held its shape better than usual, which really speaks to how well the cut was done. Sonya is talented, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about her clients. I always feel welcome and never rushed. I'm so happy I found her and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great haircut -- especially if you have fine or thin hair. Get a Sonya haircut! read more

Sonya gave me the best haircut for curly hair!! You truly need to have experience as a hairdresser be able to cut curly hair. It's been years since I've had a haircut like this!! She took her time, explained every step of the way and taught me how to style my hair and what kind of products to use on my hair. You can really tell that she loves what she does and wants to take care of her customers. Thank you so much Sonia read more

I wandered in to this community salon after escaping my fifth hospitalization after colostomy surgery. My hair was falling out, randomly waving and impossible to style. I was planning a trip with my husband but I was feeling so ugly and did not even know what to do with my hair. She was so kind understanding and supportive as a cried throughout my haircut because I couldn't stand to look in the mirror at myself. I received the best haircut of my life plus warm hugs. I didn't know didn't take credit cards and she tried to tell me no charge which I absolutely would not accept. I quickly returned with payment and a very generous tip. Please share with any individuals going through medical issues that needs this VIP care read more

Haircut was fine....if you are offered a glaze treatment ....RUN !!!! I was OVERPROCESSED & had FLAMING RED hair before a wedding. I am 73 years of age....not a punk rocker. At the wedding I was asked "wasn't a timer set"? NO! read more

Sonya is the absolute best! I love going to her salon - I always leave feeling like I had a day at the spa with the girls! She is phenomenal at cutting hair (does my whole family) and the atmosphere is so relaxing and fun! I love getting my hair done there (and my eyebrows!). read more

If it weren't for this salon and Michelle caring about my hair as much as her own I would probably have a bob cut after my hair nightmare. ( No offense to those who have bobs just not my style). I have been dying my hair non stop for probably 3-4 years- so you can imagine how damaged it was and on top of it I am a freak about my hair being long dead or not. Well I got super sick to the point where I was sweating from a fever and showering and now brushing my hair from pure exhaustion. Well sure enough my damaged Curly hair tangled itself to the point of no return. The picture attach does it no justice as to how DAMAGED and KNOTTED it was. It was hard as a rock from all my at home treatments I attempted and from it continuously just tangling more and more. The knot started at the top of my head and took all of hair victim. After countless attempts alone, I reached out to Golden Scissors and explained my situation- mind you the salon was closing for the night but Michelle felt sympathy for me and said come by I am sure I can help. 4 hours of her constantly combing and deep conditioning and attempting to salvage what she could of my hair. At some point I had given up and came to terms with me having a buzz cut ( I'm being dramatic) but Michelle stayed at it- I can only imagine how tired she was but she never gave up- she got the knot down from the top of my head to the very bottom and got it so that if I were to need to cut my hair I would only be cutting the underneath so it would need to be a bob cut. So we did it- we cut my hair after 4 years of me barley agreeing to trim it I told Michelle just cut it off. I was of course scared that by cutting the knot that I would have short hair some area and long some and it would be a mess. DONT ASK ME HOW! but Michelle cut the knot out and my hair fell into the cutest style I could of hoped for. My hair touched past my shoulders was longer in the front and shorter in the back gradually! She has assured that with the shampoo and conditioning treatments that I bought from her that in no time my hair would be healthy and grow back. Coming to see her was one of the best decisions I could have ever made. I get so many compliments on the cut now than i ever have before with hair. I cant thank her enough for salvaging and repairing my hair. I recommend anyone looking for a salon to come here. This is your image and if there is one thing i know for sure Michelle cares more about your hair than you probably do- she takes so much pride in her work and she isn't in it for the money she's in it to help people look their absolute best and to take care of your hair. The pictures attached of the knot was after 3 hours of her brushing and loosening pieces of my hair. the straight hair pictures is after she had to cut the knot out. read more

First time to GS - A hidden gem. Moved to Lemont from Chicago, 6 months ago - where "fancy" Salon's are the norm = paying big$ for lots of attitude. So. I've been to 2 other salons since, looking for a new "home". I needed a hair cut this week and found Golden Scissors on line. The reviews were ALL good - and Sonia squeezed me in at the end of Tuesday evening. So glad she did! From the beginning it was clear she was "a pro" who knew what she was doing. My hairs not that hard - but lots of cow-licks, and she knew EXACTY what to do with it. So nice to find a place that mixes small-salon charm, with friendly service - and a great hair cut. Sonia, you have a wonderful shop! THIS IS MY NEW PLACE! read more

Michelle did an amazing job turning my daughter's self - dyed hair into a gorgeous platinum blonde. She thoroughly explained the lifting process and what products were needed to maintain her new look. We are from Indianapolis, but so glad we found Michelle! read more

I've avoided getting a haircut for far too long, having had a couple bad experiences the last times I did. I happened to be in the area, pulled Yelp up for nearby salons as I was sick of having heavy hair headaches and it looking like hay. Called a few places who gave me some pretty outrageous prices. Called this one and it was very reasonable. Came as a walk-in and I was greeted warmly by Michelle, who did my hair. She took her time, making sure it was what I wanted, asking questions, giving tips and demonstrating on her own hair how she uses a product I was curious about. She and her mother are very warm and friendly. I love that it is a mother/daughter salon. I love my hair, Michelle still managed to keep a nice length to it even though there were a few inches of damage to cut off. I will definitely return, and I'm sending my mom to them, too! read more

My family has been going to Golden Scissors for the better part of 4-5 years now and everyone leaves very happy. My mother and I specifically don't see eye to eye when getting haircuts, but Sonia always manages to please the both of us. It is incredible and she really knows her stuff. Blending, layers, and she always adapts to whatever new cut we're looking for. She's been nothing short of a miracle worker, and we'd all like to extend our thanks and highest regards. Definitely a must try! read more

I just moved to the suburbs from the city and was reluctant to stop going to my hair dresser in the city who I had been loyal to for many years. But I'm so glad I found this place! They had an appointment open right away. And they were so friendly, kind, and reasonably-priced. I'm a stay-at-home mom of a young toddler, and I don't "treat" myself a lot, but they made me feel so taken care of and my hair feels so much healthier! They also offered advice on easy, quick ways I could do my hair, and advice on how to get it healthier. Thanks, ladies! I will definitely be back! read more

Golden Scissors is by far the best salon in Homer Glen area. Sonia has the magic touch and every "do" is a masterpiece. read more

Being a male with thinning hair and male pattern baldness, I struggle to find the right technique following my move from Nashville where I had a great one. Sonia and her crew made me look 20yrs younger and the illusion of a full head of hair with her cutting strategies and techniques. My wife was blown a way and I received a ton of compliments the following week at work. I now refer all of my friends to them as they typically get you in right away and are very reasonable with cost. You really do get much more than you actually pay for here. read more

Sonia did my hair for my junior and senior proms and the styles were beautiful. Every time I was back in town from college the last few years, I would go in for a trim with her because she always layers it so that it fits my face shape and wavy hair perfectly! read more

I trust Sonja completely. My hair was awful when i started seeing Sonja, but now it has improved in health and thickness incredibly. I wrote a previous review of 4stars a while ago, missing that last star only because at the time the shop was no frills -which never bothered me, but some people expect a "luxurious" salon. But with the recent renovations the shop is beautiful, very comfortable, clean, upscale, and well worth 5 stars. Sonja takes such good care of me & my mom that we will never go anywhere else. And Michelle, Sonjas daughter, does the most beautiful work, especially the eyelash extensions. They look so real! She's a damn doll, just like her mom. :) read more

Sonia is such a great person. She is warm and friendly. She has been cutting my hair for many years. She always does a great job and cuts it exactly the way I want it. She always goes above and beyond. Wouldn't go to anyone else! read more

My 10 year daughter and i have been coming here since the beginning of summer. I tried it on the word of a dear friend and boy was she right!!!!!!! Sophi and her daughter, Michelle, are 2 professionals that will stand the test of time!!!! I am an extremely picky person about my haircuts and i have not had 1 bad cut!!!!! My daughter is picky just like me and she loves these ladies!!! She usually fights me about getting her hair cut but when we started coming here she no longer does. These women take the time to understand what u want from your cut and deliver!!!!! The prices r very reasonable and they are warm and friendly to all who walk in the door!!!!! I have been to the really high priced salons and the 7.99 places. I have been experimenting with my hair for the past 26 years and these women have made me feel welcome and at home!!!! Cant say that about to many places!!!! I will follow these women if they ever change location!!!!! read more

Sonya has been cutting my hair for ~ 7 years. She always does a fantastic job, and I drive from Chicago to get my haircut at Golden Scissors. Now my whole family uses Sonya and her wonderful daughter Michelle for haircuts, as well as eye brow waxing/coloring. I highly recommend Golden Scissors, and guarantee a fantastic customer experience!!! read more

I am so lucky to have found Sonia. She is amazing and I am truly happy. Love my hair

Sonja is by far the best hair stylist around. I had her for years then left because a friend was doing hair. When Sonja was doing my hair I always received compliments - never had one compliment since. I went back and am so happy I did - she fixed my mess of my hair and I feel so much better. She's a miracle worker and so friendly! She understands exactly what you want. I'll never go elsewhere again! read more

Today, Sonia did a fantastic job, fixing a huge mess made by another stylist. She was able to accommodate me after work today, and I must say, I never thought the horrible mess made by another could be repaired in one visit. Although I live in Downers Grove, I work nearby, and have found my new "GO TO" place from now on. The shop is great, and I will say the prices are VERY reasonable. I will be back in 4 weeks!!! THANK YOU!!! read more
