Testimonials

I absolutely LOVE the manicurist who is also the person who does the facials. My regular manicure lasts as twice as long as at other salons I have gone to because of the technique she uses. I had my first facial there and was thrilled. This fantastic event ended with a treat--a smoothie! I haven't had a hair service at this salon yet, but friends who have are pleased with the results.

My experiences at Tiara salon have all been fantastic. I get my hair done with Kristina and I have never been disappointed with the way she cuts or styles it. I feel like a supermodel every time I leave her chair. Kristina, is wonderful.....wait, AMAZING! I can not speak highly enough about her. The salon is very welcoming!!! could spend an entire day at this salon! I've been a devoted customer for few years and won't go anywhere else.

THIS PLACE IS BEAUTIFUL! Tiara is one of the nicest salons I have been to- beautifully decorated, great ambiance and very clean. I had the absolute BEST experience with Crystal. She gave me a pedicure, a haircut, and cut my clip in extensions to blend into my hair. I have been searching for a stylist to stick with for a LONG time since moving to Chicago- and Crystal is it! She listened to what I wanted and did a perfect job while talking and explaining to me what she was doing during my hair cut.

I recently moved to Lake Forest and needed to find a good close by salon. Kristina was fantastic, and so accommodating, she also made recommendations and suggestions as well as checked in as she worked on my hair, and gave me exactly what I needed to freshen up my look. I would highly recommend Kristina and Tiara salon as your destination.
