Judith B Salon Spa Academy — Local services in Elmhurst

Nic from Judith B salon has brought my hair back to LIFE!!! My hair was in horrible shape before finding this gem on the Ouidad salon locator search. The three previous bad cuts left my once gorgeous ethnic curls looking like some birds built a nest dead smack center of my head..back of my head more like it!! It was so bad I could not wear my hair down for almost a year. I will be honest, I thought about going back to my old stylist who lives near the wicker park area of Chicago who is more familiar with my hair texture due to our similar ethnicity, I was afraid to burden anyone else with my hair (@ times that’s what it feels like when someone doesn’t understand my hair) but the thought of that drive was dreadful. So I made an appointment here at Judith B. I was nervous upon walking in. I was nervous that the stylist Nic would not know what to do with the “Birds Nest” or that the it may forever traumatize her... better yet harm her ;) j/k lol! The owner can tell I was nervous so she reassured me I was in good hands, the receptionist was sweet, and Nic went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable before she began our journey to what had turned into 3 haircuts later and a total hair transformation! One, she passed my three haircut test.. what I mean by that, is some stylist become comfy and somehow tend to screw up my hair after my third visit, leaving me to seek a new stylist. Nic, didn’t do that!! Two, I am sad my hair is in great shape that I don’t have to go as often. However, I’ll take great shape less visits!! Which means less awesome hair washes on a chair that reclines with your legs up.. just like a recliner! Yep ladies & gents! I said it!! RECLINER!! & I don’t get a nice cup of coffee in a cute cup.. real cup.. not styrofoam!! Products aren’t up sold or forced upon which is cool. Thanks Nic! Congrats on Promotion!! you deserve it!! Thanks Judith for having a great team!! I also got my micro blade touch up for my eyebrows with Nia who was also a Gem! ROCK ON GUYS!! hope to see you...

I have received multiple services at Judith B Dry Spa including haircuts, hightlights, facials, eyebrows, nails, massage and, most recently, tanning.

Judith is incredible! Her eye for style is amazing and she is up-to-date with current color and style trends in the industry including the products she uses. She styles hair and customizes highlights just like the celebrity hairdressers! I air-dry my hair and Judith cuts it in a way that looks like I styled it with a blow dryer! I trust her completely with any recommendation because I know I'm going to look and feel great!

The dry spa services are incredible. The facials are relaxing and customized to your skin's needs. Eyebrow grooming at the Self-ish Bar is amazing. Mani/pedis are exceptional. They use Jessica products which are non-toxic and the top coat provides an amazing shine. I've never had a regular manicure last a full week! The massage service is tailored to your aches & pains and is out of this world!! I ended my afternoom of pampering with a spray tan which was easy, fast and left me looking sun-kissed.

I haven't had a haircut in a long time and did some research before getting one. I've decided to go to Judith B salon because they offer classes, so they must be really great at what they they do. I set up an appointment with Nic and I don't think I'll let anyone else but her handle my hair. She is really cool and fun to be around. She gave me the best haircut I've ever had that I had to change my review on the last salon I went to lol (just the best haircut part, they still got 5 stars from me.) I'm super happy and feel more confident about myself. I wish I got some before and after pictures to show how much better my hair is now. For people going through reviews to see if this is the salon they want to go to, just do it. Set that appointment. I highly recommend Nic if you have wavy asian hair like me since, well, she did a awesome job on mine lol but I'm sure everyone else there is just as good.

TLDR: Do it. Set the appointment. No regrets. Awesome...
