I have been seeing Lana since 1992 and I know it was meant to be! I started a new job and the receptionist asked, "who does your hair" and I said, "nobody yet, I just moved here". She picked up the phone, called her brother and made me an appointment for that night. I was 23. I walk into this salon and a big bald man stares me up and down. He comes over to touch my frizzy mop of curls and says, "Lana".
It's been 32 years and I've cheated on Lana exactly twice. Once when I moved to Atlanta and once when I thought I'd just try a salon by my house. Both times I had to call her crying - and of course she fixed it. I lived in Atlanta for two years and would fly to Chicago to get a haircut. Most expensive haircut on the planet - and well worth it!
Before Lana opened Lana Cyrus salon she was at two other locations. I followed her faithfully.
Lana and I have shared 30+ years of stories, laughter, tears, support, and love! We even had babies on the same day in 2007!
This woman is an artist. She paints and displays her art in the salon. Her haircuts, color, and treatments are superb. I've never her salon looking anything but fabulous. Even when I tell her i'm just going home and going to bed she insists on blowing it out and styling it then tells me to put on a little lipstick and take a photo!
Her laughter is infectious. Her vibe is the best - no matter what Lana is or has gone through she has never let it affect her work. If you can find a spot on her packed schedule I highly recommend getting a hair treatment.
When she decides to retire I'm just going to shave my head!
Also, Lana offers products for all types of hair and never in 30 years has she asked me if I want to buy any. She uses the products she sells and if you like it you can buy it. She's a one of a kind.

Read moreTop notch lady gave me a great cut in an welcoming environment. I am mixed race and I have very, naturally, curly hair that has always been a struggle to deal with. Stylists always try to tell me what I should do based off of something they heard about curly hair but Lana knows hair! she listen to what I had to say before explaining how my particular type of hair works and how I can get the most out of it, After a discussion we decided on a color to compliment my skin and a cut that allowed me to keep my length while shaping my face. I didn't go threw a drastic transformation she simply made it work for me and I am so grateful, it was a great experience....
Read moreThis was the first salon that actually listened to what i wanted done with my hair. They were very attentive and did exactly what i wanted to get done on my hair. When i say they are specialists, i mean it. My haircut and my color is amazing, i have never gotten as many compliments as i have after i got my hair done. The products they use got my dry brittle hair to have life again. And boy do i love to run my fingers through my hair now. They got it back to being healthy and i couldn't be more happier. I would never give up my this salon to...
