JOIN OUR TEAM

The Circle Salon is not an ordinary salon. Here, you'll be part of a team of committed professionals who take their craft seriously.  We believe what we do matters because it makes people feel beautiful inside and out.  Our salon culture means every interaction here matters, whether it's with a guest, a teammate or our community.

We are a woman owned business and have been serving the trendy and hip neighborhoods of Wicker Park and Ukrainian Village since 2009. Our mission is to positively impact the lives of our guests by consistently delivering that “WOW” world-class experience. From the moment they walk through our doors, our guests feel welcomed, comfortable, and leave our salon not only looking but also feeling their absolute best.

We are always looking to grow our team of driven, growth-minded, and energetic idividuals. Could this be you?

Here's a few more tidbits about what makes our salon unique:

  • Our no-drama team consists of a highly-skilled team of professionals with a strong work ethic. Don't be mistaken, however, we value plenty of fun, laughter, and play as much as we do our hard work.

  • We are known for excelling at precision haircuts and complex corrective colors. Some of our clients travel far to see us, just because we ARE that good.

  • We provide an upscale yet unpretentious experience for all people.

  • We are passionate about educating our stylists to succeed personally and professionally--YOUR overall happiness matters to us.
