Shear Artistry

This new salon is great! It opened in July, 2013 and my long-​time stylist Christine DeGryse recently set up shop there. The full-​service salon was completely remodeled, is very stylish and modern, and everything is new and top quality. The owner, whose name escapes me at the moment, is very nice and he appears to be an excellent stylist. Though I have not used this service, there is also a top-​notch manicurist/​nail artist, and pedicures are also offered. Located in the Rayan Plaza, Shear Artistry can be missed by the casual eye, but is worth looking for. And there is parking!
Christine has cut and colored my hair for more than 30 years, and I have followed her to every salon at which she has worked. Her skills are amazing, and I have never been disappointed. She is always willing to try something new for me, and can always suggest a style or color change when I need one (which seems to be every 8 – 12 months, but that’s just me!). Her clientele is varied, and consists of women and men, young and old, straight hair and curly — she does it all!
I would recommend this salon to anyone who is looking for a new salon, stylist and/​or manicurist, and lives within striking distance of Howard and Milwaukee in Niles. The salon is beautiful yet welcoming, and the service is exceptional!
