Waxing is a must for me. The place is a little expensive, but atmosphere is awesome. I wish they have free parking, It becomes very expensive after a while. I recommend them.

Brazilian Wax w/ Irina
by soniasoto81
I have been waxing my Bikini area for 7 years and I finally found my waxing QUEEN Irina. I use to get strip wax until I made an appointment with Irina at Elizabeth Adam Salon. What a HUGE difference. Not only was strip wax PAINFUL it caused a lot of ingrown hairs. Now I'm able to go 4-6 weeks without getting waxed again, I no longer have ingrown hairs, and the BONUS of hard wax is LESS Pain. She takes about 15 min tops to wax my WHOLE area. She only pulls 4 times not like before where I had about 10 strips or more before I was done... I strongly recommend HARD WAX for everyone.
Pros: Everyone is so friendly and the service is nice and quick
Cons: Parking, but parking in Downtown will always be the problem because it cost too much

Great for Bikini/Brazilian Waxing!
by cvtchicago
This salon is great for waxing. I recommend asking for Irena. She is very personable and makes you feel comfortable. She also uses the hard wax (and I'm not sure why anyone still uses the soft wax down there!). Hard wax is great - so much less painful than soft wax and no irritation after. Hard wax attaches just to the hair rather than to the skin like soft wax. You could literally get waxed in the morning and be wearing a bikini that afternoon! The experience and results from the hard wax are fantastic. Prices are reasonable for a downtown Chicago salon and 20% off for students.
Pros: Practically painless compared to soft wax, and Ireana is very personable.

A Hair/Saving experience!!
by fifijones
Tricholigist? I learned by calling Elizabeth Adam salon&spa that they have an In House Hair Doctor! My fine hair was thinning quickly I considered using a topical treatment but leerie of side affects.So I called and made an appointment.The salon was very busy but Iwas never rushed,and when I met my hair doctor,Vicki,I knew my troubles were over.The time and care she took analyzing my scalp and hair and charting me for the right treatment was simplified by starting with only two products. The whole experience was GREAT ! My results are already visible---thanks to this great service.
Pros: great location
Cons: no lockers

fantastic facial!
by tatiana72
I've been coming to Elizabeth Adam since 2002 for facials. In early 2003, I started seeing Basia every month for a facial and my skin has never looked better. After suffering from acne for the past 17 years, Basia's monthly facials are the ONLY thing that has kept my acne in check. Basia is amazing when it comes to the perfect facial........Service is always great, and the girls at the reception desk (Renata and Jennifer) are always friendly and smiling... I highly recommend Elizabeth Adam for facials. I can't speak to the other services, but have had friends who have been to the salon as well and they were as happy with the salon as I was.
Pros: great facial for the price, friendly staff, accomodating

Terrrible experience
by sleopold
Went here instead of my normal place because they were having a waxing special...bad mistake. Had the wrong apptmt time, made me lay on paper sheet (just like you do at the gyno office), wasnt the type of waxing that I wanted (of coarse every extra area was $8 so it ended up being more expensive than my normal waxing place), didn't give me anything to wear (was literally laying there with half of my clothes on...terrible) and the waxing that they did do was horrible. The hair broke at the skin so literally not even a week after it was back...I would not recommend this salon at all. There are so many choices in the city than this snobby, overpriced, crappy salon
Pros: In water tower
Cons: you name it, ambience, price, quality, people

POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE
by samand
Customer service....Not sure they what customer service means...The staff answering the phone is extremely rude and unhelpful. The most unpleasant spa I have experienced.
Pros: Absolutely NOTHING....
Cons: Unfriendly, rude

You will love it
by michaelagrossman
I had a lovely experience. I loved the pink robes and slippers. The massage was the best I ever had. The massage therapist was a male and I was apprehensive at firs, but he was very professional and therapeutic. The facial was very nice and relaxing, but best of all my skin looked fresh and glowing for days after. All of the staff was very nice and helpfull. I strongly recomend this spa.
Pros: great location, wonderfull staff, professional operator
