Chicago Hair Help in Chicago
Posted: Thu June 19, 2008 12:56 AM UTC
Can anyone recommend an old fashioned hair salon that does "wash & sets" for elderly women in the downtown Loop area? We will be there for a wedding in August and my mom needs to have her hair done. Thanks.

This may not be very helpful, but since there haven’t been any answers so far I make this, perhaps, dubious suggestion. This salon isn’t downtown, but in Hyde Park (about 7 miles or about 15 minutes from the Loop). It just moved, but I think it is now open: Thanos Coiffures, in Regents Park, 5050 S. Lake Shore West, 60615, (773) 643--5582.

Most large hotels have beauty salons on-site and will be very helpful. It's always a good idea to book an appointment early, and to confirm when you arrive in town. If your hotel doesn't have a salon, ask the folks at the front desk or the concierge for advice/assistance.

If a hotel isn't in the picture, try searching (Googling) the web - that way, you'll get lists of places with web pages - always helpful in determining the particular flavor of a business.
