How much do Chicago salon services cost?

Women's cut: $50–$150. Men's cut: $30–$85. Full highlights: $150–$350. Balayage: $200–$450. Corrective color: $300–$800 (multi-visit). Bridal styling: $150–$400. Keratin treatment: $200–$500.

How often should I get color?

Roots: every 4–8 weeks. Balayage: every 3–5 months. Full color refresh: every 6–12 months. Deep conditioning between color visits.

What if I don't like the result?

Reputable salons offer complimentary adjustments within 1–2 weeks. Communicate clearly at consultation and mid-service to prevent surprises. Corrective visits after a bad color job cost more if you go elsewhere.

Can hard water damage color?

Yes — Chicago water strips color faster than soft-water cities. A $30 shower head filter and clarifying shampoo monthly extend color life significantly.
