A(+)rt and Science 9/5/2009

Looking for a stylist in the city, I made an appointment with Heather Rae after a friend made strong recommendations. It was the best haircut I've every received! Heather is not only an amazing artist, she is funny, and playfully s exy. Heather Rae's contribution at Art and Science in conjunction with the affable staff create a dichotomy that contributes to the makings of what is a successful salon. Pros: edgy prof. staff, Heather Rae, talented stylists, tattoos! Cons: None more

heather rae, a must! 3/5/2009

i loooovvveeee art and science! i've lived in chicago for almost 5 years, and have jumped around to 10+ salons, never really happy with any one stylist. I used to see a stylist at the Wicker Park location, but a little over a year ago, I came to Heather Rae for a cut at the Lincoln Park location and I'll never leave her! The best haircut I've ever had, truly. She is really sweet and a great stylist. Pros: talented stylists, comfortable decorum, feels cosmopolitan but in an artist kind of way, not stuffy Cons: i don't LOVE the product lines they carry more

Bad Customer Service 9/24/2008

I called over there to find out about promotions for new customers (as mentioned on citysearch) and the woman on the phone was so incredibaly rude that I would never consider visiting this salon. She hung up on me when I thanked her for checking. Any place this pretentious does not deserve my business. Cons: No people skills more

Head Stylist has ADD 9/14/2008

I gave this salon three chances to perfect a haircut for me. Good technical cuts, but not what I asked for. Pros: Colorist is TOP NOTCH Cons: Stylists seem to think they are better than they are. more

a trim is not a trim 3/9/2008

I had long beautiful hair, and went to Art and Science b/c it has been so highly rated. more

The best hands in the hair world touched my hair!! 12/9/2007

I went to Art and Science about a week ago. My husband has been going to Candido Torres for a few months now and I have loved the way he has made him look so I decided to try him out. Wow my hair hasn't looked so good in such a long time. His hands are magic. I want everyone to go to him. I will be promoting the salon but more him as a person then anything. I am glad that I am able to share my experience with everyone. Pros: customer service Cons: parking more

This place is DISAPPOINTING!!! 5/13/2007

I used to be a client of A&S about 9 months ago. This place is loud and chaotic and the staff is pretty snobby! The only reason I went to A&S is because I followed my stylist there. So about 9 months a go I go to get my hair cut and the girl @ the desk tells me my stylist no longer works there. I was in desperate need of a cut , so I went to the stylist they suggested. The stylist @ the wicker park salo had no idea what she was doing! I felt like she just got out of beauty school. When she was FINALLY done I was not impressed in the least bit! She also was very persistant in wanting me to buy products. My other stylist never did that. Its just bad retail skills! I will never go back to any of the locations and I'll tell my experience to anyone who asks me about A&S. Fortunately through the grapevine I found out where my original is at, and I couldn't be happier!! If you're looking for an awesome salon you'll feel comfortable in DON""T go to Art & Science!!!!! Pros: NONE What so ever!!! Cons: Snobby pushy staff!!! Lack of skill!! more

Hands Down the Best haircuts anywhere! 2/6/2007

Hands down the best haircuts I have ever had were from A+S. I have been to London, NY and now live in LA. I have been to the most expensive salons there are and the best barber shops out there...and none of them have the same quality as the cuts I ever received at A+S. They take their time on each cut, it grows out very well (the sign of a great cut) and they alway listen to what I want. Ask for Agie. She is one of the best! I miss her more than my ex. Pros: Quality Cut. Grow out great. Stylists really listen to what you want Cons: Often have to wait once you get there. Stylist tend to travel for hair shows often. more

Nick and Ella have moved salons! 9/24/2006

I have been seeing Nick and Ella for quite some time and was devastated to hear that they no longer work at Art & Science. But my faith has been restored since I found out that they are now working at Studio 110 Salon on E Delaware Pl. So just to let everybody know this is where you can find them. more

always a delight 3/18/2006

i've been seeing aaron for my cuts and kat for color for about three years and i love my hair. i went from salon, to salon on the gold coast for the first couple of years after i moved here from n.y. , with underwelming ( to say the least ) results. art + science saved my hair , and the expense of flying back to n.y. ( i was so desperate it almost happened ). Pros: quality, atmosphere, value Cons: parking ? more

Where's my Kat? 1/25/2006

This place can't keep the people i love! First Aaron left, and since I have been seeing Christin, who is great. But now I can't find Kat! I have had two other people color my hair since she has been gone, and the girls are very nice, but the color just isn't the same. I miss Kat, i feel like these new girls don't really care or aren't as experienced. If you know where to find Kat, HELP! Pros: Christin's haircuts and personality Cons: front desk, young staff, always new people, loud music, too expensive. more

great cuts and color 1/22/2006

i love this place . in the last three years i have tried three of the stylists and two of the colorists . the results were great each time. my boyfriend and mom love this salon too ! more

User review by demerol 9/30/2005

I'm a straight indie kind of guy in his 20s with short hair (short, meaning bangs to the eyes) and I was looking for a place in the north side that would give me a cool cut for whatever price. I can afford it. I first went to Sine Qua Non and was disappointed. The staff was friendly, but my hair was cut so short I could've gone to some barber in the ghetto for similar results. Then I came here. They do a damn fine job of giving razor haircuts and a textured look. My stylist is also pretty hot. I've been going here for the past few months now. Pros: fun staff more

User review by mp1010 2/17/2005

I thougth an Aveda salon is suppose to be relaxing,..this place has loud pounding music & staff that is barely over 21. Exactly what I cannot stand about the majority of these salons. Both stylists,..too busy figuring out their social life & looking around to see who is doing what and who is wearing what & who is coming in the door to focus on the job at hand. Results were unsatisfactory at best. Cons: YOU , NAME , IT more

over rated 9/20/2004

i used to frequent this place often, however, now that they are highly rated everywhere... they are overbooked. they appts run late, they make you wait, then rush you because the next appt is waiting... last time i was there was a horrible experience. rushed my cut, raised the price w/out telling me ahead of time, then shuffled me out the door. will not be returning. Pros: great cuts Cons: , not attentive enough, felt rushed more

Legendarily bad 8/29/2004

I got the worst haircut of my life at the Evanston salon. I'll never live it down -- the cut was so dreadful that it's now legendary among my friends. I had told the stylist I needed a professional cut because I'd be interviewing for positions, and halfway through she changed her mind without consulting me and started in on what she thought was a trendy cut -- but was not suited to my style, my face, or the types of positions I was interviewing for. I've never had this happen at any other salon, before or since. more

from a former regular 12/16/2003

For about 3 years, I used to go to art+science for a cut every 3 months. From my experience, the place is great for short 'dos like artfully sculpted bobs. Walking out of every appointment, I got compliments and attention on the street. However, since I've grown my hair out, the quality has not been the same. I think art+science is great for 'edgy' cuts, but if you want something more natural, try someplace else. Pros: atmosphere, very clean, friendly Cons: lack of versatility, price more
