Salon Owner | Stylist

Christine opened Artistix Salon in 2003 with the vision of creating a space that was welcoming to men and women alike. "I wanted to build a salon where everyone was comfortable; where everyone felt special." With that passion and 30+ years experience in the greater chicagoland area, Christine has done it all. She's been a mentor, an educutor, a confidante, and a boss. If you ever have the chance to get a service with Christine, you'll sit down and feel like she's the stylist that you've been seeing your entire life. From classic hair to way out-of-the-box creations, Christine can expertly create a style that's uniquely you. Just like she always dreamed.

For Jessica our Resident Triple-Threat, it's more than JUST about doing hair - A LOT more!  “I do hair because I get to use my creativity while making personal connections with my guests. I get to be a part of helping them find their beauty and confidence, inside and out. I absolutely love my job and wouldn't change it for the world. When not in the salon Jess unwinds by cooking, hanging outdoors, and online shopping. 

Favorite Hair Product - I cannot live without Pureology 21 Spray and neither can anyone else! It has so many benefits such as detangling, smoothing, adding shine, and providing heat protection and UV protection. Any product you use on top of it will work even better. 

Favorite Body Product - The new 24k Luxe Facial Oil! It has all organic rose hip, sea buckthorn, argan, and jojoba oils to name a few. I use it alone or mix it with a moisturizer. My skin has been loving it, and it never feels too heavy or greasy. A little goes a long way.

Chrissy got into hair for the love of being a positive effect on someone’s life. She really relishes that she has the ability to make someone’s day or create a long-lasting impact for the better on her clients. And make an impact she does; she’s been doing for 18 years.  “The industry is great because it’s ever-evolving. I like to take the guesswork and fear out of trying something new. I follow and stay current on all of the latest hair trends so I can keep you looking modern and your style fresh.” On the other end of the spectrum, Chrissy admits that she could eat pizza, EVERY SINGLE DAY, and not get tired of it. Find her at your local pizza place or having a pizza party with her family. 

Favorite Hair Product - Redken Diamond Oil Glow Dry “It gives the hair a beautiful shine without ever leaving it greasy.”

Favorite Body Product - The Detox Facial Bar - “It does wonders for clearing up your skin.”

“My Grandpa put a pair of sheers in my hand when I was 12 years old and taught me how to cut his hair. My passion started with that very first cut and it was something I knew I wanted to pursue since that very day.” We’d say her passion paid off. Looking to try out some fashion colors? Beth’s got your back head. Want a super tailored men’s cut? Go to Beth. Classic Hair, Trendy Hair, whatever you can dream of in your head, Beth can do. After all, she’s been dreaming those very same dreams every since she was little. Her passion has created a few funny little quirks too. In the salon she is VERY particular about the position of her chair. “I’m really OCD about, really, the weirdest stuff.”

Favorite Hair Product - Pureology Beach Waves Sugar Spray “Whether I’m running out of the house and letting my hair air dry or using my curling iron, this is my go-to.”

Favorite Body Product - Detox Facial Scrub “It’s just simply amazing. You have to try it!”

With Brandy, life is a series of memorable moments. “Nothing beats seeing that smile on a client’s face and knowing that you are part of the reason for their joy. I love bringing joy into people’s life. And, I get to do it on a daily basis." Are you looking for a stylist that makes you comfortable and is super easy to talk to? Brandy is the stylist for you! Brandy loves the Glitz and Glam of Vegas and spends as much time there as she can. When she’s not jetsetting you’ll find Brandy with her friends and her dog. Because a dog is a ladies best friend too! Remember we said DOG not FROG. Brandy has an irrational fear of Frogs. Yes, in that funny way where its fun to joke with her about it. 

Favorite Hair Product - Moroccan Oil Smoothing Lotion “I love how sleek this makes hair look without making it look weighed down.”

Favorite Body Product - Sugar Cubes “Because they’re packaged as a dry good and you add your own water, these are a dream to travel with. Throw a couple in a ziplock and add it to your travel bag and you're good to go. Soft skin - anywhere in the world.”
