Dana, the owner, who is also so sweet and fun, cut almost 8" off my hair my first time seeing her, and it looked amazing! I have lots of hair and it ranges from kind of wavy in the front to full on S waves in the back, so it's not the easiest to work with. Dana just knew exactly how to shape it so that it lays right, but still has lots of swing and movement. This salon is such a great find for me. Compared to what other salons charge, it is so reasonable to leave with hair you love!

this is my first review on yelp. I just had to review since I know lots of people like myself that…read morehave a hard time finding a good salon. and because of prior bad experiences, I had not cut my hair in over 8 months. I moved back to my hometown Chicago from NY after 10 years so I was looking for a hair stylist to stick with. shortly after I moved back in spring of 2013, I had a bday party to attend and needed a cut badly. on short notice I stopped by the nearest chain hair cuttery. it's wasn't a bad cut necessarily but it wasn't a good one either. she missed trimming at least one layer. and she scolded me for having dry hair, doing keratin, and not cutting my hair every 6-8 weeks. fast forward to this past Friday. I read a few reviews and also wanted to stay within driving distance of Jefferson Park. so Aiyu peaked my interest. I was super nervous but as soon as I walked in Dana was so warm and inviting. the place is small but very neat and modern. she mentioned her training and education which did put me a little at ease. conversation flowed with Dana, but I never felt pressure to converse (sometimes I just want to read a magazine or play with my phone and not necessarily have an hour long convo while my hair is being done) (FYI: I'm an introvert). but I felt really comfortable. the wash was great, she conditioned my hair more because it was dry and needed lots of dead hair cut off. but she never once scolded me. she asked and actually listened for what I wanted. and I too asked her opinion on length to cut but she didn't go crazy cutting my hair all short. I wanted a cut but I still wanted my long hair. when she was done I admit I was a little surprised, it was probably the best cut I've had. all the dead hair was gone. my hair was still long, and it was shiny and soft and so flowy. my boss complemented me as soon as I walked in to the office yesterday. I'm loyal in that when I find good service (car shop, hair salon, etc.), I stick with them forever. Extra points for sending me a "thank you" email. thx Dana, I'll see you soon.

I typically cut my own hair since I've tried a handful of other places in the area and was never…read morefully satisfied with the outcome. It's also a mini-hobby of mine that I've been doing since 2017 or so and I'm usually happy with how I do it -- emphasis on "usually." But we have a lot of weddings coming up so I figured I should try to go somewhere to make it look more professionally done and not risk having something go wrong, and I've been looking for a new place anyway. I decided on coming here based on both the excellent Yelp and Google reviews, and it was also one of the more affordable ones ($25 for men's cut). I called at around 11am today and Young answered; I asked if she had any open spots in the afternoon which unfortunately she didn't. However she said I could come in at 7pm which is when they close, but she assured me that this was fine with her. At around 6pm she calls me and asks if I could head over now (I assume she had a cancellation or two); I was free so I was able to go. Street parking was readily available right in front of the shop. I read some reviews about the $5 charge for the shampoo service so I didn't put any product in my hair beforehand. I showed her some reference pictures, had a short discussion about what I wanted as well as some of her thoughts, and then she got right to it. It only took roughly 20 minutes as it was mostly a trim and not a big cut. She did seem a bit rushed but even so she was very efficient, although after getting home I noticed that there is a small area in the back that could have been blended in a little better. It's not terribly obvious though. What stood out to me was the fact that she actually styled my hair similar to the reference pictures I showed her. I know it sounds basic and silly, but I've shown the same reference pictures to other salons and they've only given me the haircut and minimally styled it with their hands + product afterwards; they've never really given me what I asked for. But Young busted out the flat iron and took the time to put some waviness into my otherwise thick and straight hair so I could finally see how I would look with this style. In the end I decided that the wavy-ish hair wasn't really for me, but I absolutely appreciate her giving me what I asked for so I could come to this decision. For the most part I'll keep cutting my own hair every now and then, but for those times where I don't feel like doing it or need it professionally done for a big event, I'll be coming back to see Young! Thank you!
