Ross Bartolomei is my hair prince, my savior. He literally rescued my dry,
damaged, train-wreck hair that had suffered the consequences of badly (an
understatement!) applied hair relaxers and anti-curl chemicals. I read
about Ross, the "hair doctor" who was genius with thick, curly hair in
Allure magazine and I scheduled my appointment immediately. It took a good
year to reverse the damage done by stylists who didn't know how to work with
my hair. That was 17 years ago! I followed Ross around like a puppy dog
from one Gold Coast salon to another. When he saw the future in the western
suburbs I was thrilled. Now that his very own Salon Hype is the talk of La
Grange and its neighboring communities I feel like a proud God parent. I
have referred countless friends, not to mention my husband, our children and
my mother, when she comes to town. Ross brought an urban aesthetic to Salon
Hype and I feel transported to the City every time I walk through the
dramatic glass doors and feel the bustling energy. I could be on Michigan
Avenue! My hair is healthy, the cut and color (yes, he does fantastic
color!) are modern and effortless to maintain. Allure got it right!
