I love getting my hair done by Molly!! She is very communicative and makes sure she really understands what I want before we dive in and I've never been unhappy with the result. She's also hilarious so it's always a fun time.

Molly is amazing! Her cuts are always on point - exactly what I’m looking for. My ends are so healthy and I always look forward to seeing her. 10/10 skills and vibes!

Molly is the best! I have difficult hair with a bunch of cowlicks and she always makes it look fantastic. Plus she's a lot of fun and makes the whole experience enjoyable.

Molly is the best! Molly knows what I want for a haircut better than I do. She is the only person who knows how to cut my hair. If you are looking for a bob style, look no further. Go and see Molly! I moved away from the Chicago area and every time I am in town, scheduling an appointment with Molly is 1st on my list. Thanks, Molly! You're the best!

Molly is the best, been going to her for years! Convenient location, reasonable prices, good conversation and great haircuts.

Chan is the best! He cuts my mom, dad, and my hair. He is easy to work with and doesn't waste time

I’ve been having my hair cut here with Chan Cox and it’s been great. Chan is a true professional with decades of experience. Archive is a nice place with friendly staff. I’d recommend this place if you’re looking for a nice haircut at a nice establishment. It wont break the bank either- my men’s haircuts are only $50-$60.

Chan is the best stylist ever. I have a somewhat unorthodox haircut and many stylist's in the past have struggled to do a good job (like really struggled). But not Chan, he's a true pro. He always gives me a great haircut. I recently moved to Wisconsin. I seem to drive back to Chicago about once a month. I tell myself I do this in order to visit friends and loved ones... but deep down I know the truth. I drive the two hours for the haircut!


Oct 05, 2024

Chan is fantastic!! I have been going to him for years and now he cuts my whole family’s hair. Highly recommended!!!


Oct 05, 2024

Chan is great! He listened to exactly what I wanted and gave great advice. My cut turned out even better than I expected. The whole experience was easy and relaxing. If you want someone who really cares about your hair, I highly recommend Chan!


Oct 05, 2024

Chan is great. Very experienced with curly hair and efficient.


Oct 05, 2024

Chan is phenomenal! Been going to him for 6 years, even after moving an hour and a half away. Very detailed and offers hair tips and suggestions. Never disappointed! 👍👍

Elise is an expert at her craft


Apr 05, 2024

Great service and well priced for Chicago.

I have been getting my hair cut by Elise for over 5 years now and there is no one else I would rather go to. She does a great job and is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet. She has worked at this salon for over 15 years and when Halo (previous establishment name) was about to close, Elise found a way to keep everyone working by taking on the responsibility of owning and running the salon rebranded as Archive. Just an A+ individual all-around.


Apr 05, 2024

I highly recommend Chan Coxx for all your hair styling needs. His expertise, attention to detail, and passion for their craft shines through in every appointment. Trust me, you'll leave feeling confident and looking fabulous every time! Chan has a remarkable level of skill and expertise which will be evident throughout the session. Not only does he listen attentively to my preferences and concerns, but he also offers valuable insights and suggestions based on his extensive knowledge of hair styling trends and techniques. His attention to detail is truly impressive, he meticulously crafts each cut and style to perfection.


Apr 05, 2024

My stylist is Chan and I don’t need to tell him what I need, because he’s a top notch professional who has been cutting my hair for 15+ years.


Feb 05, 2024

A bit pricey for a barber who ignores the sideburns and doesn’t recognize a cowlick.


Feb 05, 2024

Ask for Elise!! This was my first time visiting Archive and Elise did everything possible to ease my worries- from the spark of energy she gave when she greeted me at the door to her impressive skills with the scissors. Highly recommend 5x⭐️ & yes, they do accept Apple Pay!


Feb 05, 2024

Came in to get a fun hair cut and Molly Lartz hooked me up! She gave me an awesome mullet!!! She was very fun to talk to and will definitely be my exclusive hair stylist from now on!!!


Feb 05, 2024

Elise is the best, so glad to see Halo turned into something even better.


Feb 05, 2024

Friendly service. Great haircuts. Highly recommend it


Feb 05, 2024

Great team here and they do an amazing job.


Feb 05, 2024

They get 4* for being the only shop in the loop that services women. They’d get 5* independent of that because they’re damn good.


Feb 05, 2024

Very friendly staff and great conversations while getting the hair cut done. Like the work they did neat and clean. Pre cut shampoo was good complimentary service. Didn't have to wait at all. I walked in, and got attended. When back in town can definitely visit again.


Feb 05, 2022

Alla was amazing, she gave me a very nice bald head shave, and great conversation!


Feb 05, 2022

Great place to get hair cut!


Feb 05, 2021

Not all of the people that work there are good at cutting men’s and boys hair. My cutter cut my hair fine and how I asked, but the person that was cutting my brothers hair didn’t. She didn’t listen to anything my brother said and made the haircut very uneven. Now we have to go to another place just to fix the haircut she gave my brother.
