Color Lab is a hair color boutique on North Halsted in Chicago.
The salon describes its focus as learning, refining and setting trends in hair color. It says it combines education and an artistic eye with a scientific approach to how color is formulated and applied.
The space is set up as a lounge. Clients can have gourmet coffee during the whole visit, which makes a longer color appointment feel less like a chair-side errand.
Color Lab is open Tuesday through Friday from 11am to 7pm. Appointments are booked through the Book Now button on its website, which runs on an online booking platform that handles individual appointments, group bookings and gift card purchases.
Pricing is a la carte, with each service priced on its own. Most prices vary by stylist level, which the menu lists as Colorist, Specialist 1, Specialist 2 and Director. Color fuse and Xpress tone are the same price at every level, and Fashion Root 2 Tip is also a flat price. Corrective color is billed per hour and requires a deposit to book.
The salon says it pairs education and creative judgment with a scientific approach to hair color, with a stated aim of refining color work and keeping up with trends.
A lounge-style space where clients can have gourmet coffee while they have their color done.
