About

Element 111 Salon is a hair salon on Butterfield Road in Oak Brook, inside the Oak Brook Promenade. The salon describes itself as the best hair salon in Oak Brook, IL.

Everything is booked by appointment, and the schedule fills quickly, so clients are encouraged to book as early as possible. Texting is the preferred way to reach the salon. A 50 percent deposit is due at the time of booking. Cancellations should be made at least 24 hours ahead; a late cancellation carries a fee equal to 50 percent of the scheduled services.

Haircuts cover women's cuts from bobs to long layers, which include a personalized consultation, shampoo, cut and blowout, and men's cuts done with scissors, clippers or a combination, which include a consultation, shampoo and style. Color options include touch-up root color across the whole head and full single-process color from roots to ends with a conditioning gloss and blow dry. All color used is low ammonia or no ammonia. Highlights are available as partial or full foil sets using a custom foiling pattern, and balayage is hand-painted for a soft gradation toward the ends. A gloss can be added to highlights or all-over color, and gloss-only visits use a demi-permanent, ammonia-free gloss.

Keratin smoothing is offered in two versions: an express treatment that takes an hour or less, and a classic natural smoothing treatment. The salon says the classic version can reduce frizz by up to 80 percent and curl by up to 70 percent, with results lasting three to five months. Formal styling for events uses heated tools and pinning, and bridal hair is priced after a consultation. Hair extension consultations take place in the salon to talk through goals and choose tape-in, bonded or sew-in extensions. Customized facials are offered through a partnership with Allure Skin Spa in Downers Grove, Illinois.

Covers everything from simple haircuts to complete transformations, using low-ammonia or no-ammonia color and a booking system built around planned appointments.
