Melted Mane is a beautiful, welcoming space near downtown Barrington! Reggie is a true master of her craft. She takes the time to understand what each client wants and consistently delivers outstanding results while making everyone feel great! I always leave loving my hair and feeling confident. Her color work is exceptional, and she makes every appointment enjoyable! I highly recommend Reggie to anyone looking for a talented colorist and a stylist who truly cares about her clients.

I had SUCH a great experience at Melted Mane!! Abby did a phenomenal job with my hair. I went in with not much of a vision for my hair and she immediately picked up on everything I was trying to say and executed it perfectly. My hair has never looked so good AND been healthy and thick. The ambiance and decor in there is so lovely, plus all the refreshments are a great touch. I will definitely be coming back.

I had my first appointment at Melted Mane yesterday and got to meet Abby! She spent a total of 5 hours on me, and she was so kind and fun to talk to for the entire service! Abby did such an incredible job, and I walked out of there with my dream hair. The other stylists there were also wonderful and easy to talk to! I am so pleased with my experience and will definitely be a returning client! Thanks again Abby and Melted Mane team!

I’ve been seeing Reggie at MeltedMane for over five years, and she is truly the only person I trust with my hair. She listens carefully to the look I’m going for, then gives honest, expert guidance on what will actually work with my fine, greying hair. I always leave feeling like the best version of myself. Every cut and color turns out fantastic, and I appreciate how she balances creativity with what’s realistic for my hair type. Reggie is the best—thoughtful, skilled, and consistently amazing.

A new salon with two women entrepreneurs! Went to see Ms. Tara and let me tell you she is a true artist who makes you feel like you’ve know her for years. Tara’s work speaks for itself. She pays attention to all the details from start to finish. Well done! You have the secret sauce Tara! I am thrilled with my new color melt and cut!!!
