Shear Pleasure! They are a hidden gem on Dundee Road. Owned by three wonderful sisters and it is newly remodeled, and absolutely beautiful! I have had cuts done by four different stylists there and each haircut was perfect. They also specialize in hair replacement. You must try!

Shear Pleasure for sure! I have been to many of the stylist and all are fantastic with great skills in both cutting and color. The salon has a "come on in and sit down" feel that I love. No pretention here - just professionalism and skill. I love the no-chip manicures too! This is a family owned fantastic Palatine business.

I don't know how D'Agostino's is with hair, but if you want your nails done, good luck (despite that it's supposed to be a "salon"). They have one tech who's there 2 days each week (not weekends) during business hours. I have a gift cert for nails that I have not been able to use for 2 years. if you call now, you might get an appointment by September.

I disagree! They have been nothing but Unprofessional. First the owner is so aloof and has no confidence in her staff. She looks over their shoulder, but will not talk to you, the client. Second, the receptionist(s) are so flighty (one being the owner's daughter). Third, there is no specialization the same person who does your hair will also do your pedicure. Last, is does not have a salon feel or comfortable vibe.

I have to tell you that I've been getting my hair cut and styled (and now colored) by Ellyce, currently at Arete Salon & Spa, for years. Several salons have opened within just a few minutes of our house and there were times when I thought to switch because of time and proximity to home but I've concluded that I can't do that and that I won't. Ellyce does an incredible job cutting hair, styling and coloring. She really is an exceptional and talented stylist and I recommend her and Arete Salon to anyone who is looking for an exceptional style.

I have to agree with Salon Elite. I have been going there for almost 5 years and their service and styling is impeccable. I have recommended clients who were going to other expensive NorthShore salons and they have also been very content to get a great styling, cut and color for a fraction of the cost. I have heard complements about all of their staff, but Lorrie Villano is the favorite among most of my friends.
