Molly McAlinden

Hi! I’m Molly McAlinden and I’ve been creating gorgeous, confidence-boosting styles since 2001. I specialize in precision cuts, effortless styling, and elegant looks for weddings and special occasions. Whether you’re looking for a fresh new shape or just want to feel more “you,” I love crafting styles that not only look amazing but fit seamlessly into your lifestyle.

I began my career in one of Chicago’s top Gold Coast salons, where I also spent 15 years on the education team — sharing my passion for hair with up-and-coming stylists. Now, I’m thrilled to be behind the chair in a beautiful, cozy space where I can focus on what I love most: building genuine connections and helping people feel their absolute best.

Outside the salon, you’ll find me traveling with my husband, chasing around our three wild (and wonderful) kids, or spending time with our two rescue pets.

I’d love to welcome you in — whether you’re a familiar face or a new one. Let’s create something beautiful together!
