I do not recommend it . The haircut looks like I cut it myself .. maintenance needs to be improved as well as everything else ..

I highly recommend Salon Maj for an exceptional haircut 💯

My long time barber and good friend! Hands down - the best in the business! I moved away from Chicago to NY a few years back and the cut hasn’t been the same since! It was great seeing him today to get it fixed.

I recently visited Salon Maj and had my hair transformed by Mr. Majdi. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish. He really listened to what I wanted and delivered an incredible haircut that perfectly suited me. I highly recommend Salon Maj for an exceptional haircut!

Maj does a great job with considering each person's unique hair and texture rather than providing a cookie cutter haircut. He is always friendly and clearly dedicated to his craft. There's a reason he has a loyal clientele and I have yet to find a better haircut in the area.


Feb 05, 2024

Maj is the best and an absolute pro. Been using him for 10 years and will use him as long as he’s here. Highly recommend.


Feb 05, 2024

Maj is the best! I’ve been going to him for about 10 years now and I feel great about my haircut every single time I leave the shop. Maj always delivers a consistent and highest quality cut and he’s also always fun to talk with. I highly recommend Maj!


Feb 05, 2024

The most amicable person, the most detail oriented hairdresser, the best listener. I have never had such a great haircut, nor had such a meditative time. 10/10. Will recommend to everyone who goes to Chicago.

I booked an appointment with Majdi after reading several positive reviews. He did a phenomenal job correcting and improving upon a previous cut that I was not happy with from another salon. Majdi talked through what he noticed about the last cut and how it grew in, and how he would cut the hair so that it would be even and cleaner. He showed great care and knowledge around what he was doing. I am very satisfied with the way his haircut turned out and will definitely come back for my next one. Thank you so much!

I had such an awesome haircut and color a few months ago by Maj. I was visiting Chicago with my husband and we both wanted to get haircuts. I showed up without an appointment and he was able to see me very quickly. He did such a great job and is also so friendly, I am hoping to get back to Chicago just to get my haircut - and it's a beautiful city.


Feb 05, 2023

I received an amazing haircut! He listened to what I wanted, asked questions to verify we were on the same page, and delivered exactly what I asked! 🥰


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is amazing, friendly, and very kind. Love my haircut and chatting with him! The location is also super convenient for anyone working in the loop. Would come back again!

After moving downtown last year , I needed a new barber. The ones near my Lakeshore East neighborhood were/ are too expensive I checked out Franco’s in the basement of the Bd of Trade where I got my hair cut years ago. Franco was just retiring and thankfully Maj took over. He is a good talker, interesting and funny. He also is a pro. He told me I had been parting my hair on the wrong side all my life. I changed it, and I have found my new barber I intend to keep for a long time.


Feb 05, 2023

I always dreaded getting my hair cut growing up and through my adolescence as I am extremely particular about my hair. I have never been completely satisfied after having it cut, and thought I'd never find "my guy". Without fail, Maj always exceeds my expectations in giving a world class cut at a fair price. When I have the time (or before a date), I request a straight blade to complement the premium cut, which shakes out to ~$90 all in. This is half of what it would cost you in London, and Maj is equally if not more talented than these folks. I now find myself excited to get my haircut, knowing that not only will the cut be excellent, but the experience, world class. Tip of the cap to a one-of-kind barber.


Feb 05, 2023

I've been coming to Maj for 5+ years now after initially bouncing around haircut places in the loop. The attention to detail and good conversation is what keeps me coming break. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a new barber!


Feb 05, 2023

Maj has been cutting my hair for a decade and he’s the best. Great cut every time for a fair price.


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is a FANTASTIC BARBER! I have been going downtown and using him for years. He cuts my hair, trims my beard with excellent lines and also does color for both. Every time I leave his shop, I walk out looking sharp! He's also a great guys guy to talk with. I can't recommend him enough.


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is a great stylist who really knows hair. He is also a great conversationalist and I left feeling fresh and clean.


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is amazing. He is extremely responsive and accommodating to my schedule. He also offers tremendous service and has great experience. I would recommend giving this place a try, you wont regret it!


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is great! Just call and book! Def recommend. Located ag lower level of board of trade building (enter from jackson and take stairs down)


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is the best barber in Chicago and the Chicagoland area. Before going to Maj, I was never satisfied with my haircut. Since going to Maj for the past couple of years, I will never go anywhere else. I plan my haircuts around Maj’s schedule and not mine. He’s also very entertaining to talk with while he perfects your hair. I promise you won’t be disappointed if you go with Maj!


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is the best! Professional and friendly. Maj gives it to ya straight and he's got the skills and attitude to back it up. Wonderful experience


Feb 05, 2023

Maj is the most consistent and solid barber I have ever gone to. Each cut is extremely good. I have been with Maj for over 7 years and I look forward to many more.


Feb 05, 2023

You don't know what a haircut is until you put Maj in the driver's seat. You might think you know what you want, but this professional barber will change your mind, just let him work his magic. He is licensed to use a straight razor which is a detail I cherish and something I wasn't getting at a previous hair salon. Book him on the Vargo app. You won't be sorry


Feb 05, 2022

Highly recommend a cut from Maj. True professional at his craft.


Feb 05, 2022

I’ve been getting my hair cut by Maj for over 5 years. He always does a great job. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for mens haircut in the loop.


Feb 05, 2022

Maj is an amazing barber! I highly recommend him for anyone looking to get a fresh cut downtown. I've been going to his salon for over five years now and wouldn't think to go anywhere else.


Feb 05, 2020

Maj is a great artist and knows how to use his hands to make magic happen.


Feb 05, 2020

Whatever you want - he will do it right. He’s a terrific stylist. You’ll be in good hands.
