I had gone to my old stylist, 100 miles from here, until I finally decided to find a new, local place. I read about Trio on Citysearch and decided to try it out...I am now hooked. Their customer service is outstanding. The emphasis is on you. Then the quality of my cut and highlights (Highlights: Renata and Cut: Aaron) were superb. Never before have I been asked where I get my hair done, and told that it's the best that it has ever looked. They take their time and the finished product is amazing. I wasn't used to spending over $300 every 6-8 weeks, but for this service, I am more than willing. Now, I can't wait to go get my hair done! Renata and Aaron are not only very friendly and full of professional advice, but they're extremely talented.
Pros: Service, Cut, Highlight

I travel in from the suburbs just to have Jeri Delgado cut my hair. I have known her for about six years now and have never before experienced such a master. She sees things and expresses herself in ways that most stylists don't even have access to. To expand her own development she even travels to a special training in England each year on her own dollar.
Jeri directs the training at the salon and can get busy, but you want to rearrange your schedule to get with her. She is a positive, generous energy who has organized a number of special makeovers for women in shelters.
There is nothing like the experience of trusting your stylist and loving your haircut each time. I can even go twice as long between cuts since my hair is so perfectly sculpted.
Pros: The staff is great
Cons: Parking can be a challenge

I have to say that I have been to alot of salons in Chicago and I couldn't be happier! Shelly at Trio is the best! I FINALLY found someone who listens and actually did what she said she was going to do! I just wish I would have found her 10 years ago!!!!! CALLTRIO FOR AN APPOINTMENT WITH SHELLY!!! (she works Sundays too, I love that!!)
Posted 01/12/07
I felt so at home with the entire staff at Trio Salon on Wabash. I have been to see Shelly about 4 times now and I have to say that I feel like I've known her for years! She is a wonderful stylist who really listens to your needs. I get compliments on my hair all the time, which I have to say has never happened to me before. I always thought that I had "bad hair." But Shelly gave me a stlye that really is perfect for my hair texture. I love the way she showed me how to dry my hair and all of the products she recommended ACTUALLY WORK!! So, if you need a new lease on life (as far as your hair goes), ask to see Shelly!!!!
Pros: Late hours and Sundays too!!
Cons: none

Jaci Munoz at Trio Salon, Wabash, is Terrific!
I have been seeing Jaci for her coloring services for more years than
I can remember. She has an eye for consistently achieving the Best results.
Whatever the season, Jaci actively listens and then adjusts accordingly,
giving my hair that much-needed subtle touch.
Jaci is talented, personable, and easy-going. It is always a relaxing treat
to visit her again and again. Thanks, Jaci, for a great job! Jaci earns a 10!

Pros: Customer service, treated like a guest.

I get my hair cut by Edda Coscioni at the Tri Salon on Wabash and actually look forward to getting my hair cut.
I've always wanted to try different haircut styles but never really trusted anyone to do a good job so would always wind up with the same old cut. Edda really knows how to cut hair- she is thoughtful about what cuts fit or don't fit and understands head and face shapes. Her knowledge really put me at ease to go ahead and try out new cuts and so now I really get to experience the benefits of both her knowledge and her creativity. I don't recall ever getting so many compliments after getting my haircut.
Good haircuts aside, you really get the feeling Edda cares a lot about about what she does and cares about her clients as well.
The staff at Trio Salon is also highly committed to customer service and a welcoming atmosphere awaits when you enter. I highly recommend a visit!

Going to Diana at Trio Salon on Wabash turned out to be one of the best things I have ever done for myself. She listens to you say "I want something subtle", then translates it into science and art speak , and you end up looking amazing. Diana transforms your hair (and you) into something very special. I am so glad I found her.
Pros: You can schedule on line, everyone is friendly and personable
Cons: none

diana & theresa took my ruined hair & created a fabulous new me in just a few hours. theresa is a witch with the sissors. diana is magic with color. they both understood instantly what i wanted. they took the time to talk with me about what i wanted, my lifestyle, skin color etc. nicole for wax was the best & least painful ever. all i can say is WOW!
Posted 11/15/06
After a bad botch job from a previous salon, I turned to Diana at Trio cause of her reputation in the City and in the industry. Diana took her time to consult with me at to put me at ease and the aftermath is that I have been a loyal client since. She understands her clients and makes us them feel so beautiful walking out of the salon. She keeps abreast of industry techniques and is always offering suggestions based on what you want and your lifestyle. If you haven't visited Diana, I suggest you make an appointment with her.
Pros: Color+Creativity+Style = DIANA MILDICE
Posted 11/13/06
I have been going to Trio for years?and over the years people have told me about other salons using their own hair as an example?I don?t mean to be rude to my friends, but none of them look as good as I do!
At Trio the service is great; the stylists are pleasant and professional. Diana (color specialist) has to be one of the best in the business; she transforms you from ordinary to extraordinary (the best that YOU can be) with excellent professional advice and great skill. I have had more compliments on my 'natural' blonde hair (I used to be a brunette); no one can believe my hair is colored because it looks so good!!
For cuts I have had Alex, Josie, Thor and Morgan all of who are excellent.
I love Trio and I HIGHLY recommend it as the best hair salon in town!!
Pros: All the hair services are excellent
Cons: Parking is a pain, but there is a lot around the corner
Posted 11/11/06
I just have to say that I have been to alot of salons in Chicago and there is not one that compares to Trio. I had the best experience there. From the minute I walked in until I left I felt like for the first time a salon really appreciated me as a client. Shelly cut my hair and I have to say that not only was it a great cut, but the time she took with the consultaion made me feel so comfortable. I will be recommeding my boyfriend, my family and my friends to her. Shelly....YOU ROCK!!!!!!! Thank you!
Posted 10/28/06
I've been a client for many years. Great service. Great prices. Good location. Diana gets my color right every time & Farrah is a great salon assistant!
Posted 10/13/06
Phillip and Alex have been coloring and cutting my hair for 11 years.
I get compliments literally every week.
I get stopped walking on the street by people asking who does my cut and complimenting the color.
I have lived in many cities and have never found any salon as wonderful as Trio
Pros: Phillip and Alex are the best in the city-
Cons: none
Posted 10/10/06
I am VERY particular about my hair and after many years of searching for the perfect cut and the pefect color blonde hair, I found it with Theresa (stylist) and Diana (colorist) who are both located at Trio on Wabash. I have been going to Trio for years and I always know that when I walk out after a color and cut from Diana and Theresa that I am going to look and feel fabulous...which is the reason that I always book something special on the evenings of my visits.
Posted 10/10/06
Well, while on travel I recently had the pleasure of receiving a cut from Shelly Aguirre. She not only is incredibly gifted at her craft as a stylist, but she is impeccably professional and knowledgable to boot! Highly recommended. Thank you Shelly. xo, Armany
Pros: Everything
Cons: ????
Posted 10/06/06
Shelly was outstanding! I really liked the way she listened to me. She asked alot of questions and clarified what I was looking for. She gave me a great haircut! i would reccommend her!!!!
Posted 10/03/06
I have just received the best haircut ever! I made an appointment with Shelly Aguirre at Trio Salon on Wabash and I couldn't be more pleased. She really took her time with me and my hair needs. I love the fact that she showed me how to style my new look at home. My friends have all noticed and they will be going to Shelly to get their hair cuts now. Thanks a million Shelly! You're the best!
Posted 10/03/06
I have been a loyal client of Shelly's for about 10 years. I used to go to the local salon to get my haircut not thinking that it really mattered what my hair looked like. Shelly really took the time to ask me my likes and dislikes of previous haircuts. No one ever asked me those kind of questions about my hair. Not only does Shelly know how to cut and style my hair, but she took the time to show me how to create that same trendy look at home. I am so happy that I found someone like Shelly to take care of my hair. I see her every 3 weeks so my hair always looks great!! She's the best. If you're looking for someone new to help you with your look, Shelly Aguirre is the answer!!!
Pros: Shelly's hours: Sunday too!!
Cons: Parking
Posted 10/03/06
EVER SINCE I HAVE BEEN GOING TO RENATA FOR MY COLOR, THE COMPLIMENTS HAVENT STOPPED. SHE KNEW HOW TO MATCH MY HAIR COLOR TO MY FACE TONE/EYES AND STYLE. SHE IS SUPER NICE, ALWAYS LISTENS TO MY NEEDS AND DOES HER MAGIC! I USED TO BE A BLONDE, AND NOW IM A STUNNING BRUNETTE!!! THANKS RENATA!!!
Pros: VERY SKILLED, LOVE THE SALON.
Cons: METERED PARKING, YUK
Posted 09/30/06
if you ask for Teresa for your hair cut and Diana for your color. Both truly are artists and do wonders for your hair. I have seen people come in with horrible cuts and overprocessed hair and they walk out looking fabulous. I have been a client for years and a week does not go by that I do not receive a compliment on my cut and color. Teresa and Diana have wonderful personalities, not like some prima donnas in downtown Chicago. They do not waste your time as they make effective recommendations on what shape or color would best suit your hair and facial features and they go from there. Do your hair a favor, make an appointment with Teresa and Diana, you will not be sorry.
Posted 09/27/06
I have been to many salons, I have the hardest time telling someone what I want. I saw Shelly Aguirre on this website. I am so happy I found her. She really took the time to listen to what I wanted. She spent alot of time working with my natural texture. If I ever move, I will fly here. I really trust her with my hair, she is awesome!!!
Pros: felt special
Cons: parking
Posted 09/13/06
As a guy I was looking for something better than a SuperCuts, but I did not want to spend a fortune. I found Edda and I am extremely happy. She listens to me and gives me the exact haircut I want everytime. Plus she has hours at all three locations so that gives me flexibility as to when and where I can see her. Also, at other Salons sometimes I felt like I was walking into an all Women's clubhouse, Trio made me feel right at home.
Pros: 3 locations, very professional
Cons: wabash parking difficult, other locations a breeze
Posted 09/02/06
Theresa and Diana have been cutting and coloring my hair for over ten years now. They are really experienced, fashion forward and have great instincts for what works. I have been in to see them many times without having a clear idea of what I want and their suggestions are always right on. I trust them completely and have never been disappointed.
Posted 08/29/06
If your looking for consistently amazing, head turning color, Trio's Jaci Munoz is just who
you've been looking for. Jaci not only listens to what your desires are, she makes them a reality.
Jaci takes hair color to a new level. This colorist is a true artist, she likes what she does and it is reflected in the result every time.
Pros: Jaci Munoz
Posted 08/22/06
Jaci is the best colorist in Chicago!! Since going to her for highlights almost 5 years ago, I have never been unhappy. That says alot because I am VERY particular. Everytime I see her she analyses my hair and determines what needs to be done. She is very professional, kind and friendly. As my hightlights grow out they still looks great. She is excellent!!! Give her a try - you won't be disapponted.
Posted 08/21/06
She has taken me from prematurely gray, to red, to honey brown, to blonde, and now back to gray. All of this over 15 years. I've been forced every once in a while to go to someone else and have never been happy. I will follow her to the end of my days!
Posted 08/20/06
Jaci has made me look great for years. I am always getting compliments about my hair color. She is my best kept secret. She makes me look fabulous. I love my hair color and I really love Jaci!
Posted 08/20/06
After moving from the city 14 years ago, I was devastated to have to succomb to orange hair highlights. A friend from Chicago recommended Trio and I was lucky enough to meet Jaci! Never an orange highlight job again! Not only does Jaci do a fabulous job but she is oh, so sweet! I can go a long time in between appointments (only if I have to- I am addicted to lots of great blonde highlights) because her experience and technique of highlighting does not leave any kind of stripe with outgrowth. She can go from the super natural looking color to really funky and make the color look as though it grew out of your scalp that way. Just show her a picture or tell her what you do and don't like - Jaci will make you look fabulous! Jaci is so good at listening and when I am in her chair, I KNOW that my color will be the best ever. She is fast too! It is always worth the 2 1/2 hour drive!!!! Many of my friends go to her too! You'll love her work!!!!!!!!
Pros: parking around the corner, nice offering of products, great shampoo/head massage
Posted 08/20/06
A few years ago,I was lucky enough to meet Jaci and have her work her magic on me! I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted-she listened to me, assessed my color and told me what she thought would look great. I trusted her, Jaci's knowledge,confidence, and concern for giving me the best look- a look she knew I would be happy with won me over! My hair looked awesome and by visiting her regularly, my hair is the healthiest it has been. FOLLOW THIS STYLIST AND YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!!!!!!! Thank you Jaci.
Pros: Jaci Munoz is there
Cons: The new Salon lacks ambience and is quite cramped, no parking
Posted 08/20/06
This message is for those who want to have complete faith in their colorist and always look great...one word: Jaci! Jaci has colored my hair for 10 years...and in those 10 years I have received only compliments-some people think this is my natural color!! She is calm, proficient and confident. When you visit Trio...check her out...you'll never stray!
Posted 08/20/06
Looking for the best hair colorist can be challenging at best! I found Jaci several years ago and not only does she listen to what YOU want and need - Jaci knows color and hair! Jaci is fabulous and you won't be disappointed - I ASSURE YOU! Your searching days are over!
Pros: Jaci is very accomodating and knows her stuff!
Posted 08/18/06
I have been looking for a good colorist for about a year and a half and I finally found one in Diana. She was recommended by a friend and the experience was great. I was greeted immediately and taken care of right from the start. She didn't keep me waiting and gave me great hints as to where to go with my color. My hair looks great and I will be coming back again . Highly recommended.
Pros: Great atmosphere, attentive service
Cons: On the expensive side but worth it
Posted 08/10/06
I got the most fabulous haircut of my life from Shelly, one of the stylists at Trio. I get compliments my hair almost every day - thank you Shelly and thank you Trio!
Posted 07/19/06
I highly recommend the stylist Shelly Aguirre. She has not only cut and colored my hair many times, but she also cut my hair for my wedding day. You can only trust the best stylist for this privilege. Go into Trio and ask for Shelly. She will not disappoint!
Posted 07/09/06
Shelly cuts hair like no other hairdresser I've ever met. Highly skilled at her trade and worth every penny. She listens to your concerns and solves all your hair worries. Tell her what you like, what you don't like and let her do her magic!!!!
Posted 07/07/06
Shelly Aguirre used to be my hair dresser when I lived in Chicago. I have been unable to find anyone as good as her since I moved to San Francisco. She knows how to cut and style hair better than anyone I know. She is detail-oriented and knows how to make you feel pretty :-)
I had her do my hair for my wedding, and it really made the day very special. She's fantastic.
Pros: their stylists have an eye for the right style
Posted 07/06/06
I had a great experience at Trio. My stylist was Shelly Aguirre. She really took her time and did a fantastic hair cut. Best I've ever had!
Pros: great hair cut
Cons: parking was just ok
Posted 07/05/06
I've been a loyal Trio customer for a decade now and have had many people there cut and color my hair over the years. My favorite colorist is Diana - she's amazing (especially for blondes, which I am). And Josie is my favorite person for a haircut and blowdry. I always recommend this salon to anyone looking for highly capable professionals and a cool environment.
Posted 06/25/06
This place is great! I have only been once and am already loyal! I have very fine hair and with my old cut it wasnt doing a thing and was hard to manage. Alex is the best! He gave me a great style which is also easy to manage. I highly recommend him and I will be back! The rest of the staff was friendly as well.
Posted 06/23/06
I have been going to Dianna for years now, and she is by far the best. I have even followed her from salon to salon. I won't let anyone else touch my hair. Love ya Di.
Posted 04/18/06
Diana KNOWS COLOR! She is fun and fabulous!!!!! I get compliments on a daily basis from women and men!!! Diana is awesome and she is worth every cent!!!!!!!!!
Posted 04/13/06
DIANA is the PICASSO of hair coloring at Trio. Her vast experience and knowledge with coloring enables her to understand her clients needs and desires; the end result far exceeds the clients expectations.
Pros: DIANA-COLORING EXPERT
Posted 03/20/06
I went to nicole since she was at her old place, which she was way too good for. She had made my skin amazing, i always get compliments. i trust her with every part of my skin - head to toe. she is the sweetest thing, and really cares about her clients. she is one of the best finds in chicago.
Pros: nicole
Posted 03/17/06
Diana and Teresa at Trios are like the "dynamic duo" of hair and I constantly get compliments on my cut and color. They are not only friendly, flexible and work with the client's needs- they also have great senses of humor and are great at what they do. Due to my experiences with Diana and Teresa, I highly recommend Trio Salon on Wabash.
Posted 03/17/06
Edda has cut and styled my hair for the past year. She has everything I want in a stylist: rapport, creativity, and trustworthiness. I always leave my hair in the hands of my stylist--Edda knows what cut will look best with my face shape and my personality, so I trust her to be creative and give me a great cut. She has won my loyalty because she has repeatedly gone above and beyond my expectations. I go to Trio because that's where Edda works her magic.
Pros: Hip, Clean, Accomodating
Posted 03/17/06
Trio is a great salon,I have been a loyal customer for about 8 years. It is an upscale salon without all the attitude. Very friendly environment, I always feel welcome and comfortable. I know I am in good hands with their stylists and colorists, they are truly experts! Seriously, Every single time I leave Trio I get compliments on my hair from total strangers. I have even received several compliments from stylists(from other salons) that have seen me in passing on the street or out and about around town. If that isn't the ultimate compliment I know what is!
Pros: accommodating, skilled professionals, great products
Posted 03/17/06
Needed a cut and color,went to North Ave. Rae cut my hair and did a wonderful job. I went from fruppy to glamorous. I went to the Wabash salon for color. The colorist was pleasant however when she set the timer for my color to come off no one was around. I had to ask someone to wash the color off my hair. The woman who washed it off, put so much conditioner in my hair that it became flat and lifeless after I left the shop. She left me to finish my own hair, when Alex saw that I was blowing out my own hair he offered to finish my hair. I left the shop with damp hair and looking worse than when I walked in.
Pros: Great hair cutter, good colorist
Cons: No Parking, poor customer service, expensive
Posted 03/13/06
Morgan has been cutting my hair for over two years now. With his creativity, knowledge and skill he can look at you and create the best hair style and cut for your face and body.
he is absolutly the best this salon has to offer. He is a new stylist here and originated from Vidal Sassoon. He is the stylist that no matter where he goes you will follow him and nver let another person cut your hair.
So if you are looking for a new look or even some flair for your current look. I recommend Morgan for a consultation and cut. You will wonder what you have been waiting for and where he has been hiding.
Posted 03/09/06
I've been going to Diana for my highlights for several years now and wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. Seriously - if I moved from Chicago, I would fly in for my appointments with her.
Recently started going to Rosalind for my haircuts and she is fabulous. My cut is perfection.
I highly recommend Trio.
Pros: great staff, knowledgeable
Cons: loud
