See Lira!!!

by ebent at Citysearch

I love Thomas West Salon! But even more, I love my stylist Lira! I followed her from her previous salon as well and agree that Thomas West is a major upgrade. I started going to Lira probably 3 years ago because both my mom and dad had been going to her. I have always been very picky and particular about my haircuts and color, Lira always gives me the PERFECT cut and color and I could not be happier! Even when I'm not sure what cut I want and am looking for a change, I always leave her chair so happy and looking good of course!

Besides just being great at cuts and color, she did my hair, my bridesmaids, my mother's and grandmother's hair for my wedding a few weeks ago. My updo was MAGNIFICENT and Lira was amazing with everyone of the special women in my bridal party! She was able to bring a fellow stylist Jerry to help who was wonderful as well!

She always listens to your concerns and ideas for what you want at each visit. If you are looking for a stylist to take their time and have great hair when you leave, I would highly recommend Lira at Thomas West Salon. The salon itself is always clean and the other staff are very friendly too.

See Francesca!!

by JAR JAR at Citysearch

I've been going to Thomas West for five years and Francesca is absolutely *THE BEST* in the business. She is incredible with both cut and color; I have long layered [unruly and curly, that looks perfect after she works her magic] hair and was referred to her by a friend who always raved about her.

She will help you with absolutely any vision and will cater the look or trend you are interested in so that it best suits your style and complexion. Appointments with her are a perfect marriage between what you want and what she can create for you. She worked with me over three years ago to create ombre highlights in my hair and I've kept them ever since!

More notable than anything however, is how absolutely personable and lovely of a person Francesca is. I always look forward to meeting with her because she is so sweet and so much fun to be around.

fabulous salon and Ellie is fantastic

by addie at Citysearch

I am 50 years old and have never had a stylist that cuts or colors my hair better than Ellie. She is easy to talk with about what I want and what she thinks will look the best. I started going there because it was convenient to my office but I have kept going because of the excellent results and all the compliments I get about my hair. Thanks Ellie, you're the BEST!

  • Pros: Very professional and great service

Amazing Salon.... finally found my perfect match!

by mkravetz at Citysearch

I saw Keli for a color, low-lights and color. I have never been more impressed with a stylist in Chicago! After living here 10 years and seeing several different stylists with ho-hum results, I have finally met my match! Great customer service, very friendly and great ideas for how to make my hair look marvelous! The woman who whined about the color should understand that semi-permanent color is healthier for your hair! Stop complaining!
