What our clients say
I decided to go with this hair salon because the cosmetologists here have so much experience doing hair extensions. Clip-In hair just wasn’t working for my physically active job. After tons of researching hair extension reviews, I decided to have have Areta do my appointment. I was really nervous about changing my hairstyle, but the girls at the hair salon explained the entire process and calmed my nerves. She gave me the best prices for real human hair extensions. I’ve found the best hairstylist ever! My 26 inch remy hair looks so natural. I’m really pleased with the end result. I’ve found a great hair extensions specialist.

There are so few beauty salons left that give people first class treatment. I have always wanted ombre hair, like the stars wear in the fashion magazines. Thank you for giving me a fashionable hairstyle. As a 20 year veteran nurse, I’m used to taking care of other people. It’s nice to be able to do something like this for myself. I can’t wait to visit again.

Hair replacement is a pretty embarrassing subject for most of the females in our family. Around 18 years old, my hair started falling out. Wearing a hat to cover up the bald spots on top got old. Jen explained that weft and micro link hair can be combined to give more volume. I’m elated with the dramatic results. My hair looks much thicker now. Great Job!!

I looked amazing at my wedding. Your twin sisters gave me hair long enough to make a stylish updo. I’m so happy with the way my hair looked in the ceremony photos. Overall, getting extensions for my hair was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I wanted a hairs salon that could do tape-in hair extensions.  When I came for the consultation, she showed me several different styles. I chose to get the pin straight hair because it would be easy to maintain. After we ordered the hair I came back for the install. I think the whole process took about an hour for the actual appointment.  I've tried fusion hair before using Great Lengths extensions and they were pretty good but I wanted something a little different. I am super happy with the way my hair turned out.

My Nano Hair Extensions were done by Ashley in Skokie, IL. I commuted all the way from Schaumburg, IL because I wanted a salon that provided this unique service. The actual appointment only took around 2 hours or so. I hardly recognized myself after. Ashley is so super experienced with all the different methods for getting longer hair. I wish I would have found this salon years ago. Simply the best!

I’ve always been kind of aware of my really thin hair. Wearing a wig to get a more length just was not my style. To make matters worse, financial reasons have always kept me from getting extensions done. Jordan explained all of the different types of hair extensions available. She explained about the various ways to get longer hair. I purchased micro ring extensions with the strand by strand method. It’s been 4 months and they are still looking good. This salon is just awesome. I feel more confident now at school when I’m with friends. I love this salon. Thank You!

I wanted to give a big thank you for coming to my skin weft hair. It’s rare to find a hair salon that does mobile appointments. You are all so awesome. I also want to mention that Daria was really friendly during the free consultation. I’m going to come back in six months and bring my mother along.

I really wanted tape-in hair extensions when I first came for the consultation.  But then after speaking to Ashley during the consultation, I got fusion installed.  The before and after difference was seriously dramatic.  Ashley used 6 bundles to make my hair look fuller on the sides and much longer in the back.  I did a lot of research about salons that do hair extensions and am really glad that I chose this place.  Since I do live up near Lake Forest, I found it easier to go the the location in Skokie.  I've had them on for 3 months and they still look really good.  For sure, I'm going back when it's time for maintenance. Thanks Ashley for the new look.

I first visited Areta over 4 years ago and I have never once been anything but incredibly satisfied with her work.  I get 5-6 bundles of 18" Great Lengths extensions put in at every visit and honestly between her amazing conversation and expert skill at making my hair look perfect every single time I wholeheartedly recommend Areta at Chicago Hair Extensions Salon to that woman who is looking for the best hair extension specialist in Chicago!!  At 53 years old I am forever receiving compliments on my hair and people are stunned when I divulge that I have extensions because they look so perfectly natural.  Thank you Areta for keeping me looking young and vibrant!
