Gia Vu | Chicago Hair Stylist at Reverie Salon

Gia Vu — Chicago Hair Stylist
Gia Vu is a Chicago-based hairstylist at Reverie Salon in River North, specializing in blonding, hand-painted balayage, and the kind of lived-in, dimensional color that looks effortless on the person wearing it. For Gia, hair has always been a way of connecting with people — of helping them walk out feeling like the most complete version of themselves.
Background
Gia trained at the Douglas J Aveda Institute and graduated in 2020 with a strong foundation in color. Even with years behind the chair, she has never stopped wanting to grow — which is why she is currently training directly under Sal Misseri, deepening her craft across cuts, texture, shape, and every detail in between. That ongoing mentorship keeps her work aligned with the same standard Reverie's whole team is trained to.
Her Approach
Gia's goal for every appointment is simple: it should feel easy. Tell her what you love, what you've been avoiding, and what you've been quietly dreaming about, and you'll design the rest together. Whether you're coming in for a color refresh, a new cut, or a full transformation, she's in for all of it.
Specialties
Blonding, hand-painted balayage, lived-in dimensional color, color refreshes, cuts.
