"Excellent experience across the board."
I received a friendly greeting when I walked in
without an appointment. They were able to fit me in.
I had a full hair cut and blow out.
FANTASTIC stylist who does amazing, wonderful work.
I felt like a super model, and strutted myself out of there in under an hour.
This is my new regular spot."
"Thomas West is one of the best salons I have been to.
I started going there years ago when I moved to Chicago.
If you want the best hair of your life you have to go see them.
I don't trust anyone else with my cut or color.
True artists of their craft and you will always leave with better hair than you even dreamed. Love!"
"Finding a good hairstylist is always SO HARD!
Especially in Chicago when there are salons on every corner.
But I am so happy that I found Thomas West.
I am always very nervous about getting my hair
done and trusting someone with my hair and hoping that person understands what I want. I got exactly what I want."
"I had an appointment today for a full highlight, cut, and style.
She did a fabulous job, was very knowledgeable, and friendly.
She really went above and beyond what any other stylist has done for me.
I would recommend Thomas West Salon."
"I absolutely love this salon. My stylist did an awesome job
with my color and really listened to what I wanted.
It seems like she has a "plan" for my hair and knows what I want in the long run. I would 100% recommend this salon."
