Great Find

Where have you been all my Chicago life? After the Red Door closed for good I needed to look elsewhere for a great salon and I found it! Thank you to Carlos for my color and to Nada for my cut. What a great pairing.

Amazing cut and blowdry

Have been seeing George now for 20 years. This past visit he suggested we change things up. I didn't bother asking in what way he meant. I just allowed him to do his creative magic and I walked out with a beautiful, rich color. Same goes for Jacob. He is a doll. Amazing cut and blowdry. Always leave feeling pampered. Thank you to the entire Charles Ifergan team!
