Arsova Salon: The Premier Chicago Salon in River North

A little DIY hair disaster turned out beautifully all thanks to Jena! She did a wonderful job talking me through my options and exceeded my expectations - she definitely has a long-time client now! The salon itself was clean, well designed, and everyone was very nice. Would recommend Arsova to anyone looking for a new salon in Chicago!

Wonderful salon and extremely hospitable. Offers drinks and makes sure you're comfortable and well taken care of. Eva did a beautiful job on my hair. We did a blonde balayage and she listened to all of my needs and hair goals. Very kind and fun to talk to. I 100% recommend her to others. She even curled/styled my hair afterwards.

Absolutely love getting my hair done with Jena! She always nails my cut and does the most gorgeous blonde — natural, blended, and low maintenance. She’s so easy to talk to, makes the whole appointment fun, and my hair always feels amazing when I leave. If you’re looking for someone who really gets blondes and pays attention to the little details, she’s the one!

Jena is a Tresure! I had my consultation for extensions and she was super knowledgeable and talked me through the process. I have naturally dark hair but I always keep it light and bright. Jena not only nailed my color and highlights, but they were also seamlessly natural with my extensions. I feel and look amazing and its all thanks to Jena. I have found my hairstylist!!!

I recently had my hair color done by Megumi, and I can’t say enough good things about the experience! After a disappointing visit at another salon, I was nervous to try again—but Megumi completely restored my trust. She truly listened to what I wanted, communicated throughout the process, and took the time to make sure every detail was perfect.

You can tell she cares deeply about her clients and their satisfaction. My hair turned out absolutely beautiful—exactly what I had been looking for! I’ve been getting so many compliments since, and I feel more confident than ever.

Thank you, Megumi, for your professionalism, kindness, and incredible skill. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a stylist who genuinely listens and delivers amazing results.

This review is long overdue since I’ve been coming here for the last three years. You can’t go wrong with any stylist here but I particularly love Keith!! Keith is my OG stylist and I’ve consistently walked away with amazing hair. Everyone else sees it too—I always get compliments on my hair everywhere I go. Having super dark stubborn hair sometimes limits you with the colors/highlights you can have but Keith nails it every time. Always appreciate the extra care and details he puts in. Also wanted to give a shoutout to the ladies at the front, they’ve always been super warm and welcoming!

Love Arsova!! Best service and balayage in the Chicago! Book with Ashley Sullivan for an amazing cut and color

It was my first time in the salon and I had an AMAZING experience with Aleah. I had a consultation on a glaze and got a bob haircut. Aleah knew exactly how to shape my hair to add texture and add face framing. She also gave me a complimentary nourishing hair treatment that targets the hair follicle(head massage was super relaxing) and left my hair feeling super soft. After the cut, she blow dried and styled me with waves. I’m in love with the fresh look!
Definitely will come back for a glaze and cut in the future.

The salon is beautiful and Hanna does an amazing job - highly recommend her for cut and color (i got a partial highlight, cut, hair mask and curtain bangs). Obsesseddd. Thank you so much, Hanna!
