About

Salon HEX operates as a shared space where independent stylists and makers work together under one roof at 1821 W Hubbard St in Chicago. The salon describes itself as built around that collective idea, and its stylists bring different backgrounds in cutting, color and styling.

Visits are by appointment only. The salon is open six days a week and closed on Mondays, and clients are asked to book before they come in. Stylists tailor each cut to the level of upkeep a client wants, so a precise, low-maintenance trim and a more involved style can both be planned from the start.

The salon uses products from makers it selects carefully and lists its signature haircare products on its website. Services are grouped into bridal, color, haircuts and styling. Color includes balayage done freehand, highlights from partial to full, and corrections for hair that has been colored before. Styling includes blowouts and formal updos or half updos, and clients who need extra time for curling or flat-ironing are asked to mention it to their stylist.

For weddings, the team offers bridal trials and a full menu of bridal services, plus styling for wedding parties. Bridal work can take place in the salon or at the client's location. The salon says its goal is to help wedding clients feel more beautiful and special on the day.

Stylists customize each cut to the maintenance level a client wants, and the salon chooses its products carefully from independent makers.

A wide, light-filled loft with plenty of plants, with a design shaped by art, design and music.
