    As a mom of 4 kids, i get to the salon maybe once a year. Carli was my stylist and she listened to my low maintenance needs, gray coverage, and a lighter color for summer. I probably could've talked with Carli for hours, she's so easy to talk to, which being an introvert, is VERY hard to find. The price was upfront too, she explained her starting prices and made sure what I booked online was what I needed (it wasn't). I'd suggest calling the salon over booking online, otherwise, I would've walked out of there with a $500 hair job. All of the employees were friendly, I was asked by 3 employees if I needed anything to drink. They all look out for each others clients (BIG difference over my last salon). I'LL BE BACK FOR SURE!

    After hair and makeup

    Marie was very friendly and very knowledgeable and talented with my very thin straight hair. She made me feel very comfortable and confident in my hair style. Joey did my make up. She did a great job. I don't normally wear makeup so she honored my request to enhance my look without over doing. Everyone was very friendly and professional. It is not cheap but professionalism cost a pretty penny I guess.

    Itemized receipt that was later texted.

    I went in 9/15 for a full highlight. It states $110 on the booking website that I booked through and in the end I was charged $192. Caught off guard with the price swap and since I had already been there for 3.5 hours, I didn't ask or want to make a scene. The itemized receipt says $35 for glaze, when booking on the website the details it says glaze is included. It also was never disclosed during the service that I would be charged additional for the color bowls either. This is more expensive and DOUBLE the time of a senior stylist the city. I have reached out to this company privately through both their Facebook and instagram. Several messages were read and went unanswered. Going forward, I would not recommend this business, not because of the services I received but the hidden fees of which they are not upfront about prior to services or while in the chair. I have included snapshots of what their booking website reads. It was my naivety, that I believed the cost of glaze which is "required to achieve desired tone" would be included in the service fee. The separate cost is not stated anywhere on their website. Sneaky sneaky I should add that I have no problem paying for a great service and I believed the lower price was due to the extended time needed. Time is valuable when you're a toddler mom. It is the bait and switch that bothers me and when I reached out my questions went ignored.

    Best haircut of my life thanks to Marek!

    Got my haircut tonight by the very talented Marek, and it's everything I could have dreamed of. He was very gentle with my sensitive scalp, took the time to explain how I could tame my hair texture and was an absolute joy to converse with. Could not recommend him any more highly! Thank you again Marek!

    Loved Josephine. She did an amazing job, very talented. I was encouraged to have her cut my hair, because short hair is her specialty.

I've been going to Fabio directly since I moved to Glen Ellyn in 2019, and he's always been more than accommodating and is just a really great guy. He will offer you ideas, suggestions and listens well to any requests you might have with an end result that will leave you positively speechless. If you're tired in the morning, he won't talk your ear off, but if you want to have a good conversation where one will actually reciprocate, he's going to be there like a neighbor that you've known for years. His new location is conveniently located in a strip mall right across the train tracks with ample parking, the decor/atmosphere inside has the cool hip but yet rustic 'grunge' that I feel like many guys can appreciate. Call to schedule an appointment the week of, to my knowledge he doesn't go beyond the 'week of' mark due to him being booked up fairly quickly. Despite his shop now moving further from me, I've been consistently loyal to him as he never disappoints. I'm truly happy for him and his team here, and if you want to experience a first-class experience such as I have for the past 4+ years, go to Fab, it'll be one of the best decisions you've made in a while. Thanks Fab, wishing you continued success. See you shortly.

I called at 5:30 on Thursday evening, hoping to make a Friday appointment for my son, who has awesome, puffy, Colin Kaepernick afro-type hair going on, and I wanted to get it shaped and trimmed a little to make it look a little less wild. I was hoping, especially based on all the positive reviews, that Diverse Kuts would be the place to help me tame my little man's crazy mixed-race hair while still keeping it "puffy" the way my 4-year-old likes it. The phone rang quite a while, and I wondered if everyone had gone home, when finally someone picked up. It took me two times to try and explain that I was wanting to make an appointment for a haircut for Friday. The first time, the guy asked "What do you want?" and when he understood and asked what time, I said "How is 11:30?" His response (despite Yelp saying Diverse Kutz opens at 11am) was that "Oh, we're not open then. We don't get in until about 1:30." I suggested 2pm, then, and he asked what I was hoping to have done. I explained, and suddenly he says "Ok, hold on." He leaves and a woman gets on and says "Hello" like I'm interrupting her day. I ended up saying "You know what, never mind" and hanging up. I felt awkward before we even set foot in the place. I won't be calling back, and I'll start up my search again for a place to help me make my son's wonderful hair a little less Kap and a little more summer-ready. I'm disappointed.

I have really long annoying frizzy hair and she always knows how to tame this beast. She also understands that when you have long hair and say you only want a trim to get the ends off, that is really means just the ends and not 3-4 inches like other places. I'm also obsessed with the products she uses. My hair would always get damaged at other salons after they would color it but not here. She also uses the best shampoo and conditioner line ever! I purchase the oway products from golden scissors and have never seen this line in any other salon. I was having issues with my hair thinning and breaking and she recommended which oway products would be best - she was right. She really cares about people. Her energy is infectious and she knows so much about the beauty industry. She recently told me about a makeup line she sells and tried some samples on me and I'm hooked! I highly recommend her and this salon!
