    It's like mini Frida museum
    Vikki Y.

    There are a ton of talented stylists in the Chicagoland area but I really wanted to comment on the experience that I had at Kahlo Salon in Norwood Park. I was due for a hair refresher (color and cut) and didn't feel like venturing to my go-to in Chinatown because I needed something last minute. I found Kahlo Salon based on not only its YELP reviews but the stunning Frida Kahlo aesthetic at the salon. What I love about Frida is not only her respectable background (she went through A LOT) but the way her artwork reflected her true emotional journey that was her life. I love the colors and depth of her paintings. Kahlo Salon itself is a shrine to Frida and the owner, Veronica, has a ton of paintings in her honor- that she brought back from Mexico! I could write about this place forever but let's cut this short. Stylist: I went to see Maya. She is SOOOO talented. She may be young but she has such a humble yet passionate spirit about hair and color. She took her time and asked what I wanted. She trusted her intuition and provided me with the most amazing blend of colors and EXACTLY what I was picturing in my head. My hair color was beautiful- full of natural highlights and golden shimmer. She put subtle highlights, toned it, and finally added gloss and Moroccan oil treatment. She also gave me a bunch of amazing tips on how to maintain my hair. Ask for Maya! She is simply FANTASTIC. Ambiance: This place is super cute and has yummy teas and snacks in the front. The stylists work together in harmony. The prices are super reasonable and they sell a lot of quality Redken products. All in all I had an amazing experience. Thanks again! I look forward to returning to refresh my color in a few months!

    DO NOT GO HERE!! i have been a loyal customer of Veronica's for over 9 years. I came in for a balayage and she basically gave me the worst partial highlights. (Look at the picture). Everything from her technique to process of color is wrong! She is extremely sloppy. I showed her a picture of balayage and she tried to convince me that it looks just like the picture. My hair came out orange and streaky. She tried to do another toner and it still looked awful. Mind you, I called ahead to ask how long balayage would take. Veronica said it would take "1-2 hours". A true balayage takes longer than 4 hours!!! She was also distracted with her other clients. When I reached back to her, she stopped answering. I use to come to this salon for Tatiana, who was amazing. The salon smells like rotten mold. Even Tatiana and the other salonists quit because they couldn't deal with this. I will never come here again! I had to go to another stylist who finally fixed my hair!

    I had a very good experience here! Tatiana did a wonderful job getting my hair to be even out after a disaster from a different place! Definitely would come back! Also price was very decent compared to other places.

    Before and after. Partial highlight, gloss and cut.

    Today I went to Kahlo salon for the first time. This was the best experience I have ever had getting my hair done. I walked in, the salon was very stylish and clean. I was greeted immediately at the door when I walked in and offered a beverage. Nice touch. I had an appointment and my stylist, the amazing Ana, was available right at my scheduled time. I received a partial highlight and cut. First, to talk about my partial, Ana was extremely quick and meticulous when applying foils. I have a good amount of hair and she knocked it out in no time at all. She did have another client at the same time who had color processing at the same time. She displayed some serious time management skills: during my highlight the other client had color processing, she had her assistant shampoo and tone her. Shortly after she was done with my foils. While I was processing, she cut, blow dried and styled the other client while her assistant shampooed my hair and applied a gloss. She made us both feel like important and valued clients. You can tell that she really values her clients perception of herself and her business. I have not had that great of an experience at any salon EVER. Ana is an amazing stylist who puts forth high quality work every single time. Extremely well worth every penny. I've been looking for "my stylist" for the past three years and I'm happy to say I've found her! I will be back!

    See all
