I've had some pretty bad cuts being a curly head all my life! I saw an offer when I walked into ULTA about a year ago. I decided to try them out under one circumstance; if they had someone who specialized in cutting curly hair. The salon receptionist recommended me to Christine. Before she started to cut my hair I explained to hair the style cut I wanted and to give me feed back as to how it would look on my face. She was honest, and made alterations to the cut so it would fit my face (which is not usual for some hair stylists). She also advised me on products that would work for my hair, and advised me to check out this site for tips on how to care for my hair! I've done a short length, long length, layers, and bangs all with her and I couldn't be any happier! Overall, she's great! Very easy going to talk to, and is great with curly cuts! She's still my stylist till this day! Another good thing, it's located inside the ULTA store, so if you need products you can purchase them there as well.

Stylist: Kennedy
Kennedy has been cutting my 3A hair for about 10 years. I've followed her from Mario Tricoci on Michigan Ave, to her own salon in Lincoln Park, to Ulta on State St.
She gives me a hybrid cut - I go in with it curly, she assesses what I need done, washes it and cuts it wet, blow dries it straight, and then cuts it again once it's dry. The end result is a style that looks fabulous either straight or curly, although I style it curly about 90% of the time.
I also go to a Deva-trained stylist in the DC area (who cuts my dry curls prior to washing them), and she always remarks that my Chicago stylist did a great job cutting my curls.
Highly recommended!
