Partial Multi-Dimensional
by Sam Carter
When I moved to Chicago from New York, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to replace my lovely stylist. Then I met Sam and all worries were forgotten! S...am knows what you need/what works for your hair without having to tell her—she’s incredibly skillful with color, cuts, and special occasion styles (she styled my hair for my wedding.) And more importantly, she’s a top notch person. Can’t recommend her highly enough. Show more

Single Process color +Haircut
by Sam Carter
Sam has been doing my hair for 2 years now. Not only is she an amazing hair stylist, but also extremely kind and flexible. When making appointments, s...he always works around my crazy schedule and is super flexible and understanding when I need to reschedule. As a hair stylist, I always leave my appointment feeling GREAT and BEAUTIFUL! She keeps my hair a perfect red, which I constantly get compliments on, as well as gives me great cuts that leave my hair healthy. As a client for 2 years, I feel that Sam genuinely cares about me as a person. She always remembers where we left off and we spend the entire appointment chatting about life. Getting my hair done by Sam is a wonderful experience. I’d recommend her over and over again. Show more

Quick Cut
by Sam Carter
Getting your haircut with Sam is a must! She has completely changed the look of my hair for the better. Over the last 3 years of going to her, my hair... is significantly more full and I have noticed a big difference in the way my hair grows out, allowing it to still look great weeks after my cut. She is also super cool and a pleasure to talk with every time I see her. Show more

Without question, no stylist has ever given me a better cut. I am usually unsure of what I want but come in with a vibe I am looking for. I need somet...hing easy to style but that looks amazing. I get endless compliments when my hair gets cut and have only had that happen when I go to Sam. She is a pro’s pro and I will never trust another person to cut my hair. She is also a delightful person. Show more

I leave Sam’s feeling so damn confident and happy. She is always on trend but not in a basic way. I get so many people asking me “who cuts your hair.”... She takes her job and impact seriously. She cares about her clients. She goes the extra mile and I never feel like I am being rushed out. She elevates my look and I feel like myself when I leave Sam’s! Show more

Sam is an incredible hairstylist! I've followed Sam through three salons because I love her so much!

She's also easy to talk to or happy not to chat, which I appreciate as I find small talk annoying. Show more

Lightening Retouch Creative Color *
by Sam Carter
I have been a client of Sam’s for over a year, primarily for extension installs, which have consistently been great. However, my color results have be...en rather disappointing, often deviating from our discussions and the inspiration photos I provided. Despite my patience and attempts to communicate my preferences, my hair has frequently turned out in unexpected shades, ranging from blonde to purple rather than the desired light silver. The extension colors have also often been not fully saturated and have patchy color. There were always excuses why it’s the shade it is. Never consistent. Always different. My last two sessions were particularly frustrating and emotionally distressing. For my 40th birthday, I invested $1800 for color and longer 24 in extensions, but the outcome was far from what I envisioned, and there was no follow-up or acknowledgment from her that it wasn’t what I ask for and looked terrible when we finished. When I reached out for a fix, she managed to squeeze me in but lacked the necessary toner and offered a dark purple conditioner (which she claims was complimentary) that I didn't use. I had to purchase my own products to rectify the situation before an upcoming trip for my 40th. I shared with her that I was able to fix it on my own and I had decided to drop it and enjoy my 40th. No thanks from her end for being patient with her. But for 1800 your hair should be perfect when you leave a salon. Or you should be offered some kind of compensation on the spot. But was offered nothing. In my final session, I requested a root bleach but ended up with a sandy brown first. And then she had to quickly scramble before another client came and it ended up a dark grey hair instead of the expected result. For the first time, she proactively offered to fix it, which never happened in previous instances where I had to initiate contact for corrections every time when though anyone with eyes would see it wasn’t silver. I think it was due to the other client being there. After the fix, my hair still did not align with my desired look, and I felt her excuses outweighed solutions. She even over charged me for a creative color service I never received nor booked and then basically put the blame on me that I had approved it and paid for it so it’s my fault. Ultimately, I decided to end my services with her due to the repeated issues and lack of accountability. I never got the sense that she actually cared about my hair color and my constantly pointing out it’s not silver or what I asked for. Despite my attempts to resolve matters amicably, I felt shamed for expressing my concerns and asking for a refund. She even made unprofessional passive aggressive remarks about my mental health where it wasn’t warranted. I had been as supportive of her business as much as possible even with her struggles with zoning issues and contractors tipping 30 to 40 percent. And this is how she chose to end it. Overall, my experience has been mixed, with excellent extension work overshadowed by persistent color challenges and unsatisfactory customer service. Look at the photos to come to your own conclusions. Show more
