About

Stranded is in Lincoln Park at 2517 N. Halsted. It opened in 2015 as a small neighborhood salon, and Kristin Klein has owned it since it was founded. The salon describes itself as having grown into a destination for clients from around the city.

The salon treats great hair as a form of self-care. It describes its stylists as among Chicago's top hair artists, and its stylists work across color, cuts and curly hair, each with their own specialties.

Clients book directly with the stylist they choose rather than with a front desk. Booking methods vary by stylist, from text and phone to email and an online booking site, so each person's listing explains how to reach them.

The salon says its mission is to support stylists in building their careers, with each stylist in control of their own path. It aims for a positive, forward-thinking culture, and stylists interested in joining can submit interest through an online form on the Join Us page.

Treats great hair as a form of self-care and aims for a result that feels relaxed yet refined.
