Hair Services in Chicago — Reverie Salon (River North)
Hair Services at Reverie Salon
Color, cuts, smoothing, extensions, bridal, and scalp therapy — every appointment with a Kaizen-trained Reverie artist. We specialize in a focused set of services and do them at the highest level we can.
Color
Custom-formulated balayage, foil work, gloss, and color correction. Every lightening service includes toning to dial in the exact shade.
Balayage
Hand-painted, freehand highlights for soft, dimensional, low-maintenance color that grows out beautifully — no harsh regrowth line. Our most-requested service.
Starting at $165 for a partial (face frame and top sections), $215 for a full balayage. Final pricing depends on length, density, and how much lift we’re going for. Toner included.

Foils at the root for lift and brightness, blended into balayage through the mid-lengths and ends. The brightness of highlights with a softer grow-out — our most popular combination service.
Starting at $215. Final pricing quoted at consultation.
Foilayage details →Air Touch Reverie Signature
A premium hand-painted color technique that uses a hair dryer to blow away shorter, finer baby hairs before painting — so only the strongest, most evenly-distributed strands receive lightener. The result is exceptionally soft dimension, the most natural-looking grow-out of any color service we offer, and finished color that moves like real sun-lightening rather than salon work.
Refined into its current form by Sal Misseri and the Kaizen Education team. Performed at Reverie by Sal and his longtime protégé Marissa White — the two specialists trained on the Kaizen-refined protocol.
Starting at $265. Plan for a longer appointment than a standard balayage — the technique requires it.
Read more about Air Touch →Highlights & Babylights
Traditional foil highlights for maximum brightness, precision placement, or gray blending. Partial focuses around the face and the top of the head; full covers the whole head. Babylights are very fine, closely woven highlights that mimic natural sun-lightening.
Partial starts at $165, full starts at $215. Toner included.
All-Over Hair Color
Single-process color for uniform coverage, dramatic change, or refreshing existing tone. Vibrancy, depth, and gray coverage in one step.
Starting at $175.
All-over color details →Gray Blending
Strategic highlights that camouflage grays without the every-four-weeks maintenance of single-process coverage. Built for clients who want to extend salon visits without seeing roots.
Starting at $165.
Gray blending details →Root Touch-Up
Maintenance single-process color on new growth only. The most efficient way to refresh between full color appointments.
Starting at $75 (from $100 with a blow dry).
Root touch-up details →Toner & Gloss
Tone correction, brassiness neutralization, and shine. Included with every lightening service; available as a standalone treatment to refresh in-between visits.
Standalone gloss/toner starts at $75 (from $100 with a blow dry).
Toner & gloss details →Lowlights
Darker pieces added for depth and dimension. Often combined with highlights to keep blonde looking lived-in rather than flat.
Starting at $165.
Lowlights details →Color Correction
Fixing box-dye buildup, banding, brassiness, uneven tone, and over-processed hair. One of our core specialties — we see more correction work than almost any salon in Chicago. Most corrections require an in-person consultation to assess the hair and build a realistic plan.
Pricing and timeline vary by the complexity of the correction — quoted after consultation.
Color correction details →Cuts & Styling
Every cut includes a real consultation, shampoo, and finish style — not a 20-minute trim-and-go.
Precision Haircut
Built around your face shape, lifestyle, and how you actually style your hair at home. Bobs, layers, shags, pixies, and full transformations. Every cut includes consultation, shampoo, and a finish style. Priced by length, never by gender.
Short from $80, medium from $95, long from $110.
Precision haircut details →Curly & Textured Hair Cut
Dry cutting for curly, coily, and wavy hair — cut while your curls are doing what they actually do. With curly hair specialist Marissa White.
Priced by length: short from $80, medium from $95, long from $110.
Curly hair details →Professional Blowout
Wash, blow-dry, and finish — for events, photos, or just because. Smooth, voluminous, or whatever direction matches your hair.
Starting at $75 (extra long or thick hair $125).
Blowout details →Smoothing Treatments
Long-wear frizz elimination and softness, applied by stylists trained in keratin technique.
Keratin Smoothing Treatment
Deep frizz elimination and smoothing that lasts 3–6 months. Best for thick, coarse, or very frizzy hair where you want a strong, long-wearing result. Cuts blow-dry time in half and makes hair more humidity-resistant. Applied to clean, dry hair; aftercare instructions provided. We also offer a Keratin Blowout from $150 and Color Lock Keratin from $150.
Keratin Smoothing Treatment starting at $500. Final pricing depends on hair length and density — quoted at consultation.
Hair Extensions
Length, density, or both. Multiple methods so we match the right one to your hair type, scalp sensitivity, and lifestyle — not the other way around.
Hand-Tied, Tape-In, Micro-Link & Keratin Fusion
Each method has a different installation and maintenance schedule. Hand-tied for most clients; tape-ins for finer hair; keratin bonds for the most natural movement. All extensions are color-matched and installed in-house by our team. Installation starts at $300 plus the cost of the hair, which is quoted at your $35 consultation; move-ups and removals each start at $150.
$35 consultation required so we can recommend the right method and give you an exact written quote for installation plus the hair.
Extensions details →Bridal Hair
Trial, day-of styling, and bridal party hair. Led by bridal specialist Maria Korinek, who’s done hundreds of Chicago weddings.
Wedding Day & Bridal Party
We book trials 4–8 weeks before the wedding, then come to you on the day — hotel, venue, wherever you’re getting ready. Bridesmaids, mothers, and flower girls are all available. Peak season (May–October) books out months in advance.
Bridal hair from $350 · trial from $250 · bridal makeup from $275 · bridesmaid from $225 · mother-of-bride from $200 · groom from $150 · flower girl from $100.
