First of all I am not a hair person at all where I barely bother to comb my hair and rarely cut it, and to the point where I just cut it straight and trim it myself. My hair is usually stick straight and very boring. Any curling I do it becomes straight again shortly after, and usually falls flat or apart in a few hours. Angelica was amazing, my hair survived the Chicago heat and humidity on our August wedding date. We had a trial and she was able to put together 3 different hairdos in 45 minutes. It was so impressive how she is able to make the hair move and do what she wants. She is…
This place is awesome. Our wedding venue was a two floor loft space full of salvaged architectural materials, antiques, and vintage decor. So, naturally, we wanted our wedding to have a “vintage” feel. Enter Tigerlilie Salon, the only salon in Chicago that specializes in vintage styling. First, let me say the whole group was great – I had to cancel my trial appointment/cut & color TWICE! And they never got snippy with me. I was a wreck. Way behind on everything, unorganized, and my health was not so great (immediately after my wedding I got very sick for two weeks with bronchitis that was very close to being pneumonia). So, yeah, I was a mess. Cortnie was awesome….
Love it! I wanted a vintage up do that would last (I have thick hair) and I found it at Tigerlilie. I now use Angelica Rivera as my permeant hair stylist. She was fantastic at many types of hair and had very competitive pricing! Angelica aways makes me feel fantastic and was even willing to travel to my location. She did my up-do and all the girls and she airbrushed my make up! So wonderful! My up-do was perfect… it lasted the whole night. Check out their website for their portfolios!
Antje is an artist. An incredibly talented artist. She is classically trained and KNOWS her stuff.
Seriously, words CANNOT describe how amazing our hair turned out. At $85 per updo, she was also a steal. She opened up her shop for us on a day she is normally closed, and even let us bring our own makeup artist, though she offers makeup through her salon. People were raving about our vintage-styled hair all night. One of my bridesmaids liked her so much that she grabbed a bunch of business cards in anticipation of the many compliments she got. She distributed all of them!
