Salon 1800
Salon 1800 ranks ninth on longevity converted into current relevance — thirty-plus years in Lincoln Park is a credential, and the rebrand under current ownership has modernized the experience without losing the neighborhood loyalty.
The salon’s history on Clybourn dates back more than thirty years, which in the Lincoln Park salon market means it has survived multiple neighborhood cycles. The relaunch under new ownership in 2015 sharpened the focus while expanding into a fuller spa menu — waxing, airbrush tanning, lash services — without losing the core cut-and-color identity. Seven-day availability is a real differentiator for the neighborhood.
The styling work here favors reliable over experimental, which is exactly what a significant portion of Lincoln Park’s clientele wants. Extensions, keratin treatments, and special-occasion hair give it range up the scale. First-timer discounts and a walk-in-friendly attitude keep the chair occupied by people who have not yet found their standing appointment.
