I am new to the Plainfield-Bolingbrook area, and I am in desperate need of a hair stylist. I'm looking for someone who can not only style short hair, but also maintain the healthiness of my hair. Please let me know if any of you can recommend someone GOOD!

Thanks in advance
D.

So What Happened?

Thank you to all who offered your advice on a hair stylist. I went to Glitz and Glamour in Bolingbrook and was very disappointed with the service. I am now going to First Impressions in Crest Hill and I absolutely love it. I go to Ebony and she is amazing. The salon is very clean and professional and I couldn't ask for a better salon experience. Thanks again to all of you.

Hi,

It looks like you have gotten some numbers to try. My mom goes to a woman, her name is Monica, she rents a chair in a shop near Fox Valley Mall. She does a VERY nice job cutting and styling hair, both relaxed and natural. I can get her number, just message me if you're interested. I also have a stylist that has maintained my dreadlocks and braids for years. She works out of her home in Naperville, near Route 59 and Diehl. Let me know if you need more information.

welcome to the area!

Hi and welcome to Bolingbrook. Try Glitz & Glamour hair salon on route 53. Ask for Yolanda, she specializes in short cuts. I also live in Bolingbrook but located closer to Plainfield. Guess what, I also own and operate a home daycare. Hope this helps.

Hi D.,

Call the JC Pennys hair salon at the Fox Vally mall in Aurora and ask for Tricie Riley. She is absolutely without a doubt the best there is. She was just promoted to master stylist. I can't say enough good things about her. Good luck!

Hi,
Welcome to the area. I agree with another reply regarding Mena's in Bolingbrook. My favorite stylist's name is Mary. No appt are necessary and the prices are so reasonable. My sister drives from Chicago just to get her hair done by Mary. Also, this is not an African American Salon. I believe they are Egyptian. I must say, for me not to have a relaxer I always leave looking as if I got one and it lasts.
