The Daymaker Salon

I have been going to Natasha for at least 5 years now and I usually get a haircut and am always happy. This time I decided to get my hair dyed and cut and was a little nervous. She was so nice and accommodating and made sure I was comfortable with everything she was doing. She asked me questions and I could tell she was really listening and taking notes because when she colored my hair it turned out better than what I expected! In other words she new what I wanted even though I didn’t explain it perfectly. Her intuition was on point! I have always been happy with her, but this time I was completely blown away! Thank you Natasha!

I have going to this salon with Natasha for two years now. I have been very happy with Natasha as a stylist. She is excellent with color and styling. The prices are fair which is another reason I like this place. This is not a fancy salon, but has a clean and comfortable feel. I recommend this business highly.

I moved to Glenview 2 years ago from the city and was looking for a new stylist. I came upon The Daymaker Salon and made an appointment with Dyanna. She gave me one of the most precise haircuts I have ever had. She takes a full hour cutting my hair and I have never left dissapointed. I always get compliments after a cut. I referred my mom who is also very happy with her. It is a cute salon and everyone that works there is really nice. I also think that it is a very fair price for the quality of the cut. I would highly recommend this salon!!!

I went there to get my hair done for the Jewish Holidays. I got my hair dyed by the colorist and I forgot her name. But Yona was supposed to be cut my hair. I made the month a month ago. She had to many customers so she couldn’t cut or style my hair, the colorist did it. If I had gone to the Haircuttery it would have been cut better. I paid $ 100 dollars. At least I had a touch up. Needless to say I am never going back there again. review helps others learn about great local businesses.

I had my wedding hair and makeup done here, as well as my four bridesmaid’s hair. They were professional and easy to work with the entire way. My hair turned out perfectly, even better than during my trial! My bridesmaids all loved their hair. At my sister’s wedding, the hair stylists did a poor job, so we were so relieved to find a great stylist at a reasonable price
I gave my bridesmaids the Unilocal deal, $ 30 for $ 50. They appreciated getting their hair paid for, and I appreciated a good deal on my bridesmaids gift!

I had a terrible experience here and I recommend that no one ever come here. The people working there were nice to your face but rude behind your back. My stylist who was a sweet lady did my hair completely wrong… I was blonde asking to get my roots retouched to even out my hair and she put a color in that was way to dark almost brown which meant I had to cancel my plans for the day to come back and get it redone. When I came back to get it fixed, no one ever told me they were sorry or anything sort of similar to an apology for doing it wrong the first time but rather blamed me for it being incorrect. They finally fixed it but only after making me feel unwanted and annoying. It turned out pretty well UNTIL they charged me DOUBLE ($ 100) what I originally was told I would have to pay for no reason and with no offer of apology for messing it up the first time and having to come back and rearrange my day. So I basically payed $ 100 to have a shitty experience… Also while I was there, the other stylists seemed to care more about themselves then their costumers. Another stylist had her client come in and start asking her questions about her hair and she wouldn’t even take her eyes of her computer where she was researching jeep car parts to even help her client but instead shooed her away to look at a magazine. This place was unprofessional, rude, not good at all in any way. I advise everyone to stay far away. I had gotten my roots redone before at another salon and it was a quick and painless experience with no issues whatsoever and for some reason, daymakers salon made it an awful experience. I will never go back for any reason.

Loved my hair cut today– my stylist (the owner of the salon) did a great job and the place was cute and well kept. Also had easy parking! Would definitely recommend this place and come here again.

Not too thrilled with my haircut. The stylist was nice so I didn’t have the heart to freak out on her while she thinned out my hair. Its only hair and it will grow back, but I reeeally wished I never gone to them. I did use the coupon so I guess lesson learned yet again that you do get what you pay for. A good hair stylist is really hard to come by especially if I am not willing to dish out $ 80+ for a haircut.

I hate getting haircuts. It’s one of the major negatives in my middle class lifestyle that I just can’t ignore. The ordinary people and their status judgements based solely on appearance is never ending.
Either you win the flip of the coin with great natural hair and rarely have to think about it, or like me have a cowlick infested ghetto of unruly hair shaft types that really hate cooperating with pretty much every trendy hairstyle that honestly I have better things to do than research just to impress a bunch of status whoring mouthbreathers.
Fortunately people like Edmond exist in nature. This man is a perfectionist of the highest regard. I sit there, «Make me look good» I say, and this mastercraftsman simply does it.
One might think that he is simply cutting hair, and that’s true, but it’s akin to saying that Michelangelo was just chipping marble. Imagine being able to sit there, watching him creating his masterpieces 450 some years ago.
Well you can. Except you are the one that steps out of his chair a masterpiece. I just wish I lived closer to Niles.

Just got my hair cut here the other day by Natasha and I love it! I used the $ 30 coupon from Unilocal and it was so worth it. My hair looks great and so much healthier and the stylists couldn’t have been nicer.

Wonderful experience at the Daymaker Salon: my stylist did a beautiful job and was both professional and very nice. I felt that everything was clean and comfortable, and I would definitely come back. Plus, it’s in a convenient location; there is free parking behind the salon, and after my appointment I went to get a coffee at the cute little coffee shop next door. Great place — I definitely recommend it.

I moved to Glenview in last June. I had tried several different salons but failed. I have very resistant and thick hair and had many experiences of a bad color. This problem did not bother Natasha. She colored the root of my greys and the color matched perfectly. Natasha also gave me a very best hair cut. She did the layers right and corrected the errors last stylist made. Now my hair looks bouncy and cute, exactly what I want. I think this is because she is very nice and patient in communicating with me upfront for what I wanted and exactly understood my need.
Natasha is so sweet. When I called to make the reservation, I got to know their working hour is up to 6:00PM only. Since I had to work until 5 that day, I almost gave up the reservation. While I really need to correct my hair for an event the next day. Natasha was so nice and offered to meet me at 5:30 and spend 2 hours to do my hair right. Thank you Natasha ! I will come back !

I originally went here on a discount for new clients and based on Unilocal reviews. Glad I did! Easy parking, not a lot of hoopla of some salons and focused on the customers. Natasha did a great job and has continued to do so in 3 haircuts since that first. She is pleasant to talk to and focused on what’s best for my hair. I’ll continue going here as long as the prices stay reasonable and Natasha stays available.

I just had one of the best haircuts I have ever had in my life. I went to Diana for a few haircuts and then by accident made an appointment to get my hair cut with Natasha. I have had such good haircuts from the Daymaker Salon but this one was one of the best ever. I left with my hair curly — I have been waiting for that for years! Both Diana and Natasha spend so long on your hair that all the tiniest little details are taken care of — so it takes a really long time to get your hair cut. I will definitely be going back! Both Natasha and Diana are so highly recommended!

What can I say about the Daymaker Salon, but only GREAT things! I have been going here upon recommendation my hair stylist. This place is in a fantastic location in downtown Glenview with parking in the back, which is very nice and safe from the outside elements. Even though I don’t live around there (Schaumburg) it’s alway a pleasure to visit and have a customized haircut that always looks great! Hair stylist Jonida is a trained professional and takes care of me each time providing the best service possible. She is very detail oriented and always makes sure her customers are satisfied. I highly recommend the Daymaker salon for your casual haircut to special events, they specialize in them all. In closing the mission statement on the wall says it all about Daymaker Salon: «Customers are not dependent on us — we are dependent on them.»
Always a happy customer each and every time, highly recommended. Please stop by and you’ll be pleasantly surprised, I guarantee it!

This was my first visit, The stylist I worked with is named Diana. I think she did a great job, she took her time (which was an entire hour) and really listened to what I wanted. I would go back, price is fair and they have a great 30 dollar deal to get you in the door. Couple things that I did not like was having to stare at the hair on the window sill-​needs a lysol wipe-​badly. I also think they need a receptionist. I didn’t know where to put my coat. All and all, for 30 dollars, this is a great cut and I would try them again, even at the norm price of $ 50

I came here since I recently moved to Glenview from downtown, and they were having a $ 30 cut and style special for new clients. It doesn’t say so on their website, but the coupon was only valid for one stylist, Natasha. I have to say that she gave me one of the best haircuts ever! I brought in some photos of what I was looking for (medium length, side-​swept bangs, layers in back, and face-​framing layers in front), and Natasha was able to replicate it exactly. She was also very sweet, friendly, and paid attention to detail. She took her time to make sure that it was perfect, so it did take about an hour and a half. I am very picky about my bangs and usually end up cutting stray hairs myself when I get home, but this was not necessary with my haircut from Natasha.
The salon itself is cute, small, and no-​frills. There’s only like four hair-​cutting stations and two hair-​washing stations. If I was paying $ 50 for a haircut, I may have expected more luxuries, such as being offered something to drink when arriving, but for the price I paid, I can’t complain. Parking is plentiful behind the salon (entrance off of Glenview Rd.).

Best colorist in the world works here and her name in Erika. She’s been doing my color for years now and I’ve joked that if she left I would follow her or fly her in from where ever she moved to. The salon is super cute and unpretentious. I’ve never walked away unsatisfied with my color. Ok maybe once. but not because my hair looked bad. It was because I was crazy and INSISTED on going super dark with my hair and it was too much of a shock for me. I called Erika and said it was too much of a dramatic change overnight and she gladly lightened my hair up and it turned out perfectly. Next time I should just listen to her. Erika is very knowledgeable and understands my «Mexican» hair very well.
Everyone is very personable and you walk out looking like a million bucks without feeling like you spent a million bucks. I definitely would recommend this salon… it’s worth the drive. And girls know… it doesn’t matter how far the salon is… if you know you’re going to be leaving with gorgeous hair it’s well worth it!

Absolutely amazing salon! I got a haircut from Carmen and color by Erika and walked out of the salon feeling like a rock star! I was hesitant at first, worried that I wouldn’t get the «hip» look I was looking for, but I was pleasantly surprised. Carmen and Erika are completely up to date on all the newest trends in hair and are at the cutting edge of hair styling. I was welcomed warmly and attended to promptly. I felt as though the stylist really listened to what I wanted and added their own creative twist! Prices are totally reasonable and worth it! I would definitely recommend this salon to anyone – young, older, kids, plain janes, hipsters, divas, men!

This is a really high quality place for any hair service. I don’t do color, but I got a cut and style by the female part owner. They’re married and own it together, as well as both being stylists. I was very pleased with my haircut and my stylists’ demeanor. She couldn’t be nicer. I used one of their coupons for new clients which I see frequently in the local mailer.
One thing irked me though. Her husband was abrasive and impatient with her. He always seemed to feel she was taking too long with this or that, and his nagging her constantly interfered with my service. I was speaking with her about a product while I was paying and she couldn’t hear a word I said because behind me he was yelling at her to hurry up and get to the next waiting customer. Of course I had to repeat my entire question.
The woman was fabulous however, and they carry some great products!
