I was looking for a place near me for a haircut and came across here on Yelp. I called and phone was answered promptly. I was able to schedule an appointment for the next day at the time I requested. Signage for the business is slightly small. It is next to the nail salon if it helps you locate. Upon arrival there was one person getting her hair blow dried. As I arrived slightly early I was able to sit and browse the stack of magazines available. I was taken to the wash bowl right at my scheduled appointment time. I was asked how I wanted my hair cut and felt that I was listened to. When blow drying he did not put any products in my hair. Cost for the hair cut and blow dry was $35 which is very reasonable. However, the reason for the loss of a star is due to not accepting credit cards. There was no sign on the outside or inside indicating this. Good thing for once I actually had cash on me. read more

I'm in Chicago for a wedding in Oak Lawn area. It was a 25 minute uber ride. Go see Shahd. I got my makeup done and it was an incredible experience. She is truly an artist. Give her artistic license. Trust that she wants you to look and feel incredible. Bring in a swatch of the color you'll be wearing and let her do her thing. I was in and out less than 60 minutes. In D.C. I would have paid double. My eyes water ANY time I do lashes. So she had to redo that part. She was so patient. When I walked out one of the customers said "are those your eyelashes?" Made my day! read more

I highly recommend Sam. I couldn't get into my regular salon up north and a friend recommended Sam. He got me in the next day and I was in and out with a three color treatment, cut, and style in two hours. I told Sam to do whatever he thought would be best and he did a fantastic job. He won me over! read more

Sam's Royal Salon - Highlights and trim - Hair Salons Near Me - Willowbrook, Illinois

I walk in to Sam's salon last minute and he always makes time. I go to Him for Updo styles for weddings events or I get blow outs . Best blowouts I've ever had I have straight flat hair that can barely curl in with I get a blow out . But somehow he manages to do it . read more

I went to Sam in a pinch because he had glowing reviews. I only got all over color. I didn't have a great experience but the worst part was that he rubbed so hard at my hair line to get the dye off my scalp that he RIPPED all of the hair around my face. I now have baby hairs around the whole top of my head. I would have rather gone home with the dye on my scalp than have to wait years for these tiny hairs, he ripped out, to grow back. He also rubbed the dye into my scalp as if he was shampooing the hair which is the opposite of what they teach you in beauty school. The 2 stars are for the price and ease of getting an appointment. But now I know why it was so easy to get an appointment. read more

Sam is a perfectionist and very meticulous. He is great. Sam is also very flexible and can usually squeeze me in with short notice.

Overall the service was solid, only thing was I might have caught Sam at a bad time and he wasn't the most friendly / helpful given it was my first time coloring my hair. I also felt he rushed a bit and the whole service was ~30 minutes. read more

I wanted to find a new hair cut place near me. I read the good reviews so I gave it a try. I am very simple and easy going with my hair I just get layers with a trim off the dead ends. I asked for 2 inches off but he definitely cut a lot more off. The whole time he seemed to be in a big rush and constantly tugged at my hair. I will say though I was surprised at the end when I saw that the outcome was still good. My hair was a lot shorter than I wanted but it looked good. The hair cut was not bad, I've had better but I'm mostly giving 3 stars for the overall experience. The worst part is that he charged me $60 at the end. It was definitely way overpriced, I do not think it was worth $60. I think it was worth $40 at most. All I wanted was a simple trim and blow dried afterwards. read more

Great service very responsible prices , appointment always available , very polite staff . Gift recommended read more

Sam fit me into his schedule when I called for a first time haircut and did an excellent job. I desperately needed a change and told him my lifestyle (parent to small children, don't have time to style my hair every day). He gave me a totally different look and cut the layers so that it looks good no matter what. Love his work! He is a lovely person. read more

Sam was very kind. Got me in same day. And totally understood what I wanted for my haircut. Which was refreshing after getting expensive cuts that where horrible and made me feel ugly. Sams cut was affordable and made me feel good about myself. read more

I have been following Sam since he first came to the area and was at a near by salon renting a chair. His work has always been top notch, I always told him he deserved to have his own salon! I used to frequently visit Dearborn Michigan and used to envy how classy and detailed the décor was- the ambiance at a salon alone can make you feel like a million bucks. Between his great hospitality and a great looking salon- the work he does with your hair is beyond simple words. He not only has an eye for any type of up-do or half do but he also can help you step out of the same old hair routine and color routine. He brings up to date styles to life on your hair. Highly recommend him and this salon!!! read more

AMAZING. Definitely loved my new hair color and highlights. I never thought I'd find somebody who will do my hair just the way I like it while making sure that it suits my face and everything. Best hidden gem. It's a 40 minute drive from where I live but it's worth the drive. Recommend 10 out of 10. read more

He's fabulous!!!! I'm not even done with my hair but didn't want to forget to leave a review! He's talented and I have thick thick hair not many can do my hair and I'm so glad I found this salon! I don't leave many reviews but I found him on yelp and so glad for that. read more

Sam gave me an amazing haircut! I had not been to see a stylist since March 2020, before the COVID shutdown (over a year without a haircut!). Sam took my very dreary, damaged and overgrown hair and transformed it to look healthy and fresh! read more

What a hidden gem!! Sam was AMAZING!!! Great technique, fast and clean. My daughter and I both had full color and hair cut with style. We were both in by 6 and out in less than 2 hours. I totally recommend this place. Thanks Sam! read more

Great Keratin straightening treatment. The only one I've ever had that worked on my thick, wavy, frizzy hair.

Im very picky about who cuts my hair, but a month ago I needed to get a quick haircut unplanned and boy was I surprised to this day how I love my cut. I told Sam what I wanted and he recommended a twist which I took a risk in trying. I have been complimented many times. Guess it pays to try random stylists and a very different do. Thank you Sam. read more

Love Sam's new salon, looks beautiful on the inside. Sam is a very talented hairdresser and detailed with his work, and you always come out with the best blow-dry! I'm already looking forward to my next appointment! read more

Went there to get a haircut loved the haircut! The vibe there is very nice highly recommend

Sam did a phenomenal job! Great price for the quality of service. Salon is clean and the staff is friendly.

Very friendly and accommodating. I'm new to the area so this was my first try to find a new salon and this seems to be a lucky break! Not only do I love my haircut (I had over 3 inches cut off so it wasn't "just a trim") but it was quick too which I appreciate. Couple notes: Sunday's are by appointment only and they don't accept credit cards so be prepared. I'll definitely come back. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 as I'm going to see how it is with a bigger service like color. read more

I recently discovered Sam's Royal Salon and couldn't be happier. I was able to get a Sunday appointment which is very convenient for me schedule-wise. Sam colored, highlighted, cut and styled my hair perfectly. I then brought in my 16 year old son who is very particular about his very thick, straight hair (he has hair like the Beatles in their early years - LOL). My son has routinely been disappointed with almost every haircut that he's gotten in the past but Sam gave him a great haircut that was perfect. We are now both loyal clients! read more

Great place for a haircut with great prices. Sam nails the fade every time without fail. Would 100% recommend! Clean place, clean cut, and you walk out feeling clean since he shampoos your hair too! read more
