In Short – An original photography by David Teplica and the overall chic look give this boutique salon an urban vibe, while personalized service creates a cozy, intimate atmosphere. And unlike some salons that lead customers to new stylists after each service, the staff members here--many with national and international credentials--are specialists in multiple disciplines, including haircuts, color and makeup application. By night, the modern space doubles as a venue for private parties and other events.

Best Hair Color I've Ever Had!

by Jill in Chicago at Citysearch

I was given Linda's name as a superb person for hair color, and I went to my appointment at Blade yesterday.

I went in with an unhealthy-looking drab shade of dark brown/red in my hair, and I wanted something brighter that would lighten up my look. Every salon I've gone to in the past has told me that they can't change my look because the color is too dark - and that they'd have to spend 5 to 6 hours lifting all the color from my hair, in order to then go in with a lighter shade.

Linda at Blade looked at my hair situation and came up with a winning solution that far exceeded my expectations. She absolutely transformed my look and gave me the hair I was dreaming of! I left with a lustrous warm brown plus super-cool swaths of ginger "ombre" lowlights.

As an aside, I asked Linda about fixing the bad haircut that I got elsewhere, and she had amazing ideas ranging from subtle changes to a whole new style. I booked a hair cut with her for a couple weeks from now.

Hands down. Linda is the best person I've ever gone to for color. She really knows what she's doing, uses high-quality products, and is the consumate artist and professional. I can't wait to see what she does with a cut!

New Location...Same Great Hair!

by beevis0 at Citysearch

I had to write an updated review after I went to see Linda for a "back to school" style change and once again she rocked it! My new copper locks and edgy pixie is just what I needed! I just let her go and once again I am totally thrilled with my new look.

The new salon locatin is great and love, love, love the new decor!

Trust Linda with your hair

by Liane Denise at Citysearch

I've been going to Linda at Blade (and several of her previous salons) for about 10 years and am never disappointed. Linda is a creative professional and a genius with color. The cuts are always great and I leave the salon with fabulous hair. Blade is comfortable, immaculate and welcoming and is easy to get to by car or train. Highly recommended!

Elgin is the best hair stylist in Chicago

by spencer2392 at Citysearch

Very comfortable but clean and artistic atmosphere. I am a straight guy and Elgin is the best hair dresser I've had and I have lived in many places. They are a reasonable price and are very flexible with ideas. Last time i went in I just let Elgin choose a look with a few specifications i said and i turn out wonderful. Check this place out its in a good neighborhood and request Elgin

Linda's Blade is Fabulous!

by Stillpoint Learning Cente at Citysearch

I have been going to Linda for more years than I can count. Every time I walk out I feel fabulous, my color is amazing and the cut is great from the moment I leave until I get back there (but she always says "Well, just let me clean it up!). Over the years she has gently guided me in color and cut so I look contemporary and stylish. And it's not just that she is extremely competent. Blade is comfortable and all the staff is friendly and positive. I love going there.
