Supercuts

Thanks for the «NOT» towel… Lisa. Ugh, getting a hair cut here was awful.

I’ve been coming here for a few years now and I was lucky to get Sarah as my stylist. I’ve been going to her ever since! She is great and does an amazing job everytime.

Awesome service! I came in to this supercuts today for a trim and was a little skeptical about coming in because of a previous experience elsewhere. I originally asked for Gloria, but she was not there. So my stylist was Dee. She was amazing and though it wasn’t easy, she managed to cut my hair exactly how I wanted it.
My ends were horrendous but I wanted to save as much hair as I could. See managed to do so and my hair feels great! I will definitely be back to see her soon! Maybe I’ll have her touch up my purple too

Got my hair cut there today from a lady named Dian she f****d up my cut, I told her nicely it was ok I don’t think I will be back though, she was daydreaming while cutting my hair, I told her one way she does the other, SMH

Sarah is an excellent hard working stylist and over years she has always done a great job for me. She is personable and caring. I always return. Reasonable price and good location.

Gloria is the best hair stylist ever! My boyfriend checked in to get a hair cut. He was nervous at first because many stylist had ruin his hair. Gloria gave my boyfriend the exact haircut he wanted. We loved the result. Good pricing to. Definitely recommend this place.

GLORIA IS NOT GONE. I REPEAT, GLORIA IS **STILL AT THIS LOCATION**
Sooooooooooo,
Whoever the person was, who works (ed) @ this location and who told me that Gloria had move to another location on S. Archer Street (yes, there’s a S.C. located there) is a HUGE and JEALOUS A-​HOLE.
Why would a stylist do such a thing? Perhaps because Gloria is an amazing artist w/​hair and has a wonderful and dedicated following? Likely.
Anyhow, GLORIA IS NOT AND WAS NEVER GONE.
5 Stars for her. Lisa is pretty great too. I hope they find out who is telling dedicated customers this load a malarkey — fire their butt!

Had the worst hair cut-​EVER! Got home and saw that my hair was chopped-​the stylist’s version of giving my straight hair a «fuller look». I’ve had layered in the past and it never, ever, looked hacked & chopped. My spouse & friends commented on how bad the cut was. I am now at month 3 post chop, and can have a real stylist attend to my head to clean up the wreck.
Wish I could remember the name of the woman who assaulted my hair. I do remember her having what sounded like a deep smokers cough & was/​is an older woman.
Hope this helps. Stick to a simple trim if you must go here.

Walked in and said long on the top short on the sides and they did a great job. I never give my name or phone number and they curious but cool about that. I’ll be back.

Worst haircut and highlight of my life. I needed a quick haircut on a Saturday and made the mistake of going here instead of making the drive to my usual place. I first started to worry when another stylist was quickly trying to teach mine HOW to do highlights. I explained I wanted brown tone highlights to go with my dark brown hair. An hour and half later, I look in the mirror and see white stripes! The other stylist yells «you didn’t use toner!!!» To which she gives a puzzled look like what’s toner? The other lady frantically throws a book at me and asks what color I want, then yells instructions for mixing toner. Ten minutes later I look in mirror again and see the white stripes still there but now I notice they are only on the top of my head and dark brown hair all along sides. I point out how ridiculous it looks and stylist says «that’s how it’s supposed to look». I’ve had highlights done for 15 years and NEVER had this. The other lady sees this and says she can fix no problem. Add another 45 minutes and a shampoo. The lady doesn’t use toner again! I ask about it and she says «you don’t need it!» I overhear the one lady tell my stylist «don’t do highlights anymore». They still charge me. I get home, dry my hair, and to my horror see 3 different color highlights, in stripes. I run to CvS and buy dye to cover up the mess of a zebra on my head. Do not go here. I won’t even get in to the haircut.

Big changes here. The entire old staff has left, it appears that the franchise store that was at Lincoln and Peterson took over here. Thank God I was able to find Don, the old manager here. He’s now at the Supercuts at Algonquin Road and Lee Street in Des Plaines. It’s another fifteen minutes to get there but worth the drive.

Neat and clean place with a friendly staff. It’s the only place I go for my haircut. See Aaliyah she’s the best stylist I’ve ever had. Highly recommended.

It’s clean and neat, and diverse, when I need my ends clipped this where I go

This is my regular stop for haircuts. I always get a fine haircut and fast, friendly service. The stylists treat my daughters like princesses when I bring them in for haircuts, too.
I’m subtracting one star because my eldest daughter sometimes gets stylists who seem to have trouble cutting her hair the way she wants. I wish I could take off only half a star for that, though, because she’s never been disappointed enough to stop coming back.

We all get our haircut at this location. It is close, it is cheap and at least for me, with my super straight, baby fine hair, which I keep short, I am not overly fussy. I go in every six weeks, get weed whacked and leave happy enough, so it’s all ok.
If you are a fuss butt, this is not the place for you. If you pay more to get your dog washed and cut than you do for yourself, Supercuts is just fine.

Expect that the stylists at this Supercuts will:
1) NOT follow your instructions
2) NOT make do what they tell you they’ll do
3) NOT have any good suggestions
What you can be certain of is that they will push products (conditioner, volumizers, etc., etc.) while paying absolutely no attention to what they are doing.

Maria, Vanya and Micaela do great work.
Everyone else is crap. I feel like these ladies just need to retire already because their age is showing through their hair cuts.
I feel like they dont listen, or are hard of hearing, or can’t see or glacoma is kicking in, because you never get what you ask for and to worst thing a girl can as for is having their hair cut too short! I hate when that happens.. .
If supercuts is what you like, find another one because this one is not it.
Don’t bother «calling ahead» because they feel that if you called ahead its ok for you to wait and will take other people in before you, not just one, maybe two or three so you have to spend your time sitting in that lobby for a half hour, really?

Natalina — thank you! First you’re smile calmed my nerves. Haven’t had a cut in 10months and was tired of putting my hair up in a bun. I said i wanted my hair chopped but with long layers. Yes — i did say the word Chopped, but i guess i should have said, cut up til ends hit my shoulderblade. Well, i tend to be a yapper especially if i’m with someone one on one and she is such a sweet gal. Then it was over and she literally chopped my hair but the layers are soo beautiful! Good bye hairclips (for now). Natalina — you are the QWAN of Layers… I’m keeping your card close to my heart.

Although I used to be a huge fan of Snippets, my family switched over to Supercuts a few years ago. We used to go to the Portage Park location, but it allegedly lost its lease. I’ve never gotten a *bad* cut at either location and whenever Dianna cut my hair, I got some really great, complimented-​by-​friends cuts.
Sadly, Dianna has left Supercuts after having a child, so she is no longer available. But as other Unilocalers have pointed out, there are some stylists at Supercuts who are just as good. And really, for $ 14, my expectations for cuts are generally pretty low.
Admittedly, I have a hate-​hate relationship with my hair and am not a huge beauty buff, so spending a lot of money on a haircut is not a huge priority for me. I’ve never gotten a hack job at Supercuts; I can’t say the same for some salons I’ve tried over the years. And it’s not like the folks at those nicer salons spend more time or more product on me: whether I get my hair cut at Renesscence or Twisted Scissors or Supercuts, it takes about 40 minutes total.
Outside of Dianna, I can’t remember anyone else’s name, but I choose the Latino ladies from the Portage Park store when possible. I avoid the Asian guy for my kids as I don’t think he does great work with superfine white people hair. The Polish blonde lady gave my 4-​year-​old a great trim when we were there 2 weeks ago. At that time, my daughter’s stylist also gave her a great cut — a graduated bob with a little bit of layering in the back for bounce. She’s been getting compliments ever since.
For my family, Supercuts is a one-​stop shop. We use the frequent-​customer card to earn a free cut every few months, and although we’ve never called ahead to get on the list, the wait is generally reasonable at the times and days we visit. Everyone is friendly, the waiting area is clean and neat, and the staff has always been patient with my children’s requests to sit on my lap in the chair, for a shorter cut or for a bit of styling gel at the end. They also always give each of my children a dum-​dum lollipop at the end.
I’m a fan of this Supercuts!

Many many years ago this was a business I’d frequent for my hair cuts and each time the stylist was different as was the cut. If I put a percentage to my appreciation of the cuts we’d be at a 50% of the time, rating. It’s hit or miss and probably a best place for little kids with too much hair or old dudes with thin hair and no care for their looks. Can you tell I’m not a big fan of Supercuts and I’ve tried many more locations than just this one, but I feel prompted to write something about this one. Your hair is important and whether you’re in High School or older; people are looking so it needs to be maintained. Properly. Best advice, find one stylist you like and stick with’em. Don’t be shy about asking for them by name and if they aren’t there, you really shouldn’t risk it. I tried others a number of times and every time without fail it came out ugly. Each cut comes with its own «warranty», so one could return a few days later and ask a different stylist to try and fix it.
