About

It is a brand of Harmony Beauty Company. The business describes itself as Chicago's first African American-owned walk-in silk press and blow-dry bar.

Visits are walk-in. No appointment is needed, and service runs first-come, first-served during opening days and hours. Guests can check in at the studio or online before they arrive to hold their place in line, then get a text when their turn is close and can wait nearby in the meantime.

Every service includes a wash, conditioning, and a press or blowout finish, so clients don't need to prepare their hair beforehand. The base options range from a wash and blow-dry finish with no press to a full silk press with a deep conditioning treatment and trim. Add-ons are chosen at the station, and the stylist suggests what suits the hair.

Listed prices are opening rates. Clients who book a service should cancel at least 24 hours ahead; late cancellations and no-shows may be charged a fee. The studio also offers group bookings for bridal parties, girls' nights, and corporate wellness days, along with gift cards that can be redeemed in the studio.

Each press begins with a focus on the health of the hair.
