I've been going to Sharda's for 15+ years and I hope she never retires lol. I've moved out of the…read morearea but still take the 30 minute drive to have Sharda thread my brows. This small and locally owned business also offers facials and waxing but I've only been here for eye brow threading. The prices have gone up a whole ONE time since I've been going here, which was in 2020. If you do see Sharda, her pricing is more compared to the other staff members. I personally have only seen her so I can't speak to the others. Anticipate a slight wait time if coming in after 5pm during the week or anytime on the weekend. You are not able make an appointment but it really only takes about 10 minutes for eye brow breading. Bring cash too, they do not accept CC for services that total under $20. I don't think their hours are correct on google and Yelp so be sure to call ahead to make sure they're open. I did notice that there was a sign during my recent visit that said they are closed on Mondays.

I've been going to Sharda's salon for over 20 years now, and there is no one I'd trust with my…read moreeyebrows other than Sharda or her team. Koki is the most kind and efficient waxologist I've ever know and I love that I can be in-and-out of the salon for threading and waxing in 30 minutes. This is especially helpful because I'm usually seeing them when I'm in town from NYC and scheduling something last minute and they always find time to fit me in. Sharda and Koki are the sweetest, most loving people I know and I am so thankful to have met them. I am grateful I have a place to go to whenever I visit IL to have my beauty needs met. My family and friends also come here for their threading and waxing and I don't think any of us would trust our faces or bodies to anyone else!

Whether you are here for a simple trim or going full out with highlights, a cut, and more, you can be sure that you will be taken care of. While Rose is usually quite busy, she will always do her best to make room in her schedule for you. I don't live in IL anymore, but whenever I come back to visit family, I always make sure to stop and see Rose. I don't trust any other hairdresser with my hair. I had been getting my hair cut the same way for so long. But, I recently decided to try something new and get highlights. I wasn't quite sure what I wanted so Rose dyed and styled my hair for me. The result was absolutely perfect. I have never been happier with my hair. Definitely recommend Gossip Salon, as the interior is quite chic and everyone is so nice. If you come here though, be sure to see Rose!!

Rosemarie is the best hairstylist! I'm always getting compliments on my hair and it's all thanks…read moreto the best hairstylist in the world. I was actually at a Yelp event once just having a good old time when someone behind me tapped me on my shoulders to tell me how great my highlights were. She wasn't even part of the Yelpers (just a restaurant patron) and was telling me that she is a hairdresser herself and she can spot a great highlight job when she sees it (that sounded redundant). I was so flattered! Rosemarie is usually booked up so I know I have to call in advanced to get an appointment. She is worth the wait, though! When I was out of the country, I had to go to another hairstylist because I couldn't hold out any longer (I waited 4 months!!) and it was a mess. I went back to her as soon as I got back to have the disaster fixed. Her prices are amazing!! AMAZING! Men's haircut is $20, Woman's haircut is around $40 and color varies depending on the hair length. For the haircut, she shampoos, cuts, blow dries, and then texturizes. She's an expert colorist and I've seen some of her clients that came from other salons to have their color fixed because it was a mess. She works at Gossip Salon, but you can call her direct line to make appointments - 630-307-0808.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experiences with Mari. I have been coming to Mari for…read morebikini waxes for over a year now and would not dream of going to anyone else. Besides being ridiculously nice and delightful, Mari is professional, ALWAYS on time, and reasonably priced. Prior to Mari my bikini waxes were, without exception, painful. I seriously do not know how she does it but I am able to carry on a conversation or check email and never flinch once. I kid you not - not only is there no pain but there is no measure of even the slightest discomfort. She is located just a few doors down from Ellyn's Tap in the Sola Salon space.

Not only that, but the number of salons is surprisingly small! I was on my way to Chicago for the weekend with a quick stop at a friend's in Wheaton... And I couldn't get a waxing appointment in Indy! I did a little research on Yelp and called The Wax Effect, being pretty sure that i wouldn't be able to get an appointment. To my surprise, Marilu made some time for me after her normal Saturday closing time. And to my delight, she did a great job! I have been getting Brazilians since 1997 when I started going to J Sisters in NYC, and I think that this was one of the most thorough and painless waxing jobs I have ever had. It was such a great surprise! My only regret is that I am not local enough to be a regular.

I just got home from a Vegas vacation where I definitely drank more than normal and my skin hated it. I was so happy I had this appointment booked because I haven't had a bad breakdown like this is probably over a year. I just told her to do whatever she thinks my skin needs. My skin feels incredible!!! My face was glowing and can't wait for this crazy break out to finally go away. Her massages are amazing! She also did an amazing job with extractions. I haven't had someone in the past that was as thorough as she was. Sometimes you just wish Yelp offered more than 5 stars! I can't recommend Renee enough and so excited I found my new go to esthetician.
