Over Thirteen Years and Growing

The Burr Ridge location is undergoing some change and updating of its own. An open dispensary, also known as a color bar, is being constructed. The area will allow customers to watch as experts mix each client’s color from a palette of 400 shades. Carissa Bartolomei said a similar project is planned for the La Grange salon. “It’s going to bring it all out in the open,” she said. Bartolomei said every person who leaves one of his salons is a walking advertisement for his business. “They see our work out there,” he said. “Every head is a billboard.”
