Kim is very knowledgeable friendly and creative! I get lots of compliments on my hair. And I have very thick wavy hair which is hard to deal with.
This place is AMAZING!! Lauren colored and cut my hair and it turned out amazing!! I’ve never felt more confident so thank you Lauren :) highly recommend this place ladies!!
I just went in brand new for a short pixie, and Lori 1000% understood the assignment. It can be hard to get a nice, feminine short cut and Im absolutely loving this one. Ill be back!
First time here, and I absolutely loved it! Very good price for wash and cut! 10/10 experience. Kim did an amazing job.
I’ve been there twice, both times with Lori. The place is beautiful, and they’re welcoming. Lori did a great job with my hair. I recently moved into town, and I’m glad I found someone I can trust to do my hair.
Im new to the area and was looking for a new stylist. Ive been twice now (once with Lori and once with Kim), and Im so happy with my choice! So easy to book my appointment online, with text reminders and everything. Highly recommend Lauren & Co.
WOW! I was so impressed with Lauren!!! Everything I had done was to perfection. It’s probably the best haircut I’ve ever received. Her idea of style is impeccable.She was extremely professional. The conversation was good. The price was excellent. I could go on and on about this place!!!! I finally found the best hairdresser!!!!
Lauren is the best! She is so skilled at what she does! Her salon is the cutest and I always leave there feeling like a million bucks. :)
Kim Boylan did an amazing job with the highlights. Her suggestions were great based on my requirements. Going back again to try a hair cut next.
I’m so happy that Lauren was recommended to me. She really listened and understood what I was looking for and TOTALLY delivered. She’s amazingly talented and I’ll definitely be making regular appointments! Bonus: the salon is adorable and really well maintained.
Kim gave me a great perm, aperfect cut and showed me a new style. So comfortable and professional! Glad to have found her!
Lauren is amazing. It has been years since I have felt like a stylist understood what I was wanting AND delivered. Plus she is such a positive, uplifting person to be around it’s like a breath of fresh air. Her shop is impeccably clean and everyone working there was professional. Definitely would recommend.
Lauren is my absolute favorite stylist I have ever gone to! She has been doing my hair for over 4 years now and I am never disappointed in her work. Lauren, Kim, and Lori are the kindest ladies and they do fantastic work! So happy for the 3 of them in their newest location. Book an appointment with one of them now if you haven’t ever been to their salon. You won’t be disappointed either!
What a wonderful salon! Friendly , professional and relaxed atmosphere.Lauren is an excellent stylist!
Brought my 19 month old son here for his first haircut at the recommendation of a friend. Lauren has a wonderful demeanor with children that made for a great experience.The facility is clean, the people are very nice, highly recommend.
Lauren was excellent!! She took the time to get to know me, showed interest in what I was saying and most importantly, provided quality work! You can tell Lauren cares about her business and work because she treated me like a valuable customer. Will be going back for sure. If you’re looking for an affordable, high-quality salon, I recommend this one! :-)
Lauren is amazing. This was my first time at her salon and I was speechless the way my hair turned out. She was very personable and also very professional. I was in between of what I wanted to do with my hair and she gave her own professional opinion and I was amazed with the outcome. The price as well was amazing. Being from the suburbs of chicago I am so used to getting my hair done and it being over $200. I was amazed with the price and the quality of this salon. I will be coming back.
I have always been very satisfied with the service I have received at Lauren & Co. The facility is always clean and everyone is helpful, professional and personable. I had highlights and a haircut from Lori yesterday and the results were great, as usual. Lauren and Kim are very helpful, as well, and I have observed them working with their clients and their results. It’s a great place to go for styling, and I would recommend them to everyone!!!
I am 28 years old and I have been getting my hair done for years at random salons and was never impressed by any of them until now. Lauren did an amazing job doing a balayage and trimming of my hair! I can honestly say that this was the first time ever leaving a salon where I truly LOVED the color, cut and style. I will definitely be returning to Lauren & Co. and I am happy to say that the search for a great salon is over.
Lauren is extremely friendly and personable. Her shop is cute and very clean. It was a first-time visit for me. I have a short pixie cut, which can be a bit tricky. However, Lauren did a great job with the cut and style. I will definitely be returning and would highly recommend her to my family and friends.
Lauren is the consummate professional. Very skilled in the services provided by her salon. Got a great haircut and felt like I was the most important client she has!
Lauren was super friendly and did a GREAT job on my long naturally curly hair. If you have curly hair and are looking for a trim you dont have to pay Deva Curl prices! She was very attentive, listened to what I wanted and when I said just the ends she literally did JUST the ends. Highly recommend!
I just moved to the area and was dreading trying to find a stylist that could keep my blonde where it’s at - SO happy that I found Lauren & Co. on my first try!! I’ve seen Kim twice now and she’s my new “person” for sure! The salon is beautiful and spotless; Kim is an absolute delight to chat with for hours; + my hair has never looked better! If you’re looking for a new salon/stylist, you’ve found it here! 😍Notes: hair cuts, full/partial foil highlights
We love Lauren & Co in our family! Kim has been styling my hair for over 25 years & now cuts my son’s hair too. She is a life saver for my son’s hair because she’s the only one that can get him to sit still (3yo boy, y’all) & allow someone to cut it! Kim & the rest of the team are always professional & will treat you like you’re part of their loving family. We’ll be going to Lauren & Co for forever!!
Lauren was a Professional, left the Salon...loving ❤ my new cut and highlights, she was a pleasure to talk to. The place was Clean and Neat and the Price was on point. I didnt leave until my next Appt was booked.Highly Recommend LAUREN AND CO.....
Lauren and her staff were very kind and did a great job with my hair. Gave me exactly what I wanted. I texted Lauren, number is on her website, and she replied promptly. This made it very easy to communicate about details. They clearly are passionate about making people feel beautiful and taken care of. Would recommend.
Such a beautiful salon!!! ✨ This was my first visit here, I came with reasonable expectations about having a color correction / balayage done and Lauren totally surpassed those expectations! She did such an incredible job on my hair, I love it & left feeling so relieved!! It’s such a kind, clean, comfortable environment all around with really friendly stylists. A really wonderful salon, I absolutely plan to come here long term!! 🙌
I have been stylist shopping for a few years now and was recommended to Lauren by a friend. I am so happy that I went to Lauren for highlights/lowlights and a haircut! She knew exactly what I wanted, made great conversation, and was so quick without sacrificing the quality. I can’t wait to go back to Lauren!
We have had Lori doing our family’s hair for 30 years, and love the new shop. It’s bright, clean and fun! Lori does such a great job with my hair that I’ve relinquished (almost) all decisions to her, particularly where my hair length is concerned. It’s my favorite appointment every month.
I started seeing Lauren while studying at ISU a few years ago and she is absolutely amazing and very talented! She can envision your vision of what you want and follows through perfectly. She maintained my bob back then and now I’m back for another degree and she gave my much much longer hair life with the perfect amount of soft layers that I was looking for! She’s also excellent at full hair color- clean, meticulous, precise. So happy I found her, she’s an incredibly sweet person as well and fun to chat with. Highly recommend her to everyone.
I have been going to Lauren for years now. She always asked me how I want my hair cut and is happy to change anything if I have an opinion on how short, layered or thinned I want it. Besides a great hair cut, she is a wonderful person and always respectful, pleasant and kind. I highly recommend her and her place of business. She is always without complaint or comment, ready to meet my needs and has been very good during this Covid pandemic on safety and willing to change my appointments as needed. Check her place out!!
The salon is so cute and clean inside. Lauren was very professional and did a great job on my hair! She was ready for me right when I walked in. Will be back for sure!
I decided to go see Lauren after reading her glowing reviews online and man, she did not disappoint. I wanted a natural looking blonde highlight that would not have any harsh lines as it grew out and here I am, several months later, still in love with how it looks. I definitely will be seeing her again and couldn’t recommend her more!
Had my first hair appt at Lauren & Co and loved the experience! Lauren did a great job with my cut and color. She was fun to talk to and the salon was cute! I’m glad I found this salon 🙂
Lauren, Kim, and Lori are true down to earth professionals. They all have a passion for doing hair and want you to Be The Best You. Each one of them wants you to feel like a million bucks when you leave. In the time you’re there, I can guarantee you’ll not only leave feeling (and looking) great but also like you’re part of the Lauren & Co family. And what a fun family it is to be a part of! There is nobody else I’d trust more with my hair than these three talented women.
I hadn’t gotten my hair done professionally in 2 years. (My last hairstylist retired) decided to take a total shot in the dark and go to Kim after reading that they’re rated #1 in Bloomington......TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!! I felt like a new woman and she was so nice and easy to talk to. Very reasonably priced & I still can’t stop smiling at my hair!!! I would give it 6/5 stars if I could😊😊😊 Thanks Kim!
Consultant, shampoo, cut and style. Lauren suggested style cream to tame the frizzy and it’s been a great help even with the humidity.
This is the BEST hair studio in Bloomington! My hair has never been healthier. Lori takes her time coloring and styling my hair to perfection each visit. The studio is also very nice and clean which I appreciate. I love coming here and I would recommend this studio to anyone looking for a fresh color/cut!
Lauren has been cutting my hair for a few years now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Super professional, fun, energetic, and welcoming environment from Lauren, Kim, and Lori! They make you feel like family when they have so many friends and clients and are able to remember the conversations we had a month ago and they truly care when they ask! I wish I could rate them higher than 5/5!!!
I was recently at Lauren & Co to have Lori Penn cut and color my hair. She has been my stylist for many years. Lauren & Kim are wonderful stylists also and their new place is very nice. I get compliments whenever Lori does my hair!! 😀
I love to have a place I can go and be able to discuss my hair with knowledgeable hairdresser and come out getting more than I expected! Lauren knows what she is doing. Sometimes you get a beautician that can cut but not good at color or vice versa. She can do both!!! I would recommend this place over and over again!
Lauren is awesome! I came in with multiple inspo pics and she combined them into the perfect cut and color for me! I will be back!
I had a great experience here and will be my go to salon for my future haircuts. Lauren was very friendly and washed, cut, and dried my hair in under 30 minutes while still giving me a quality cut. Definitely recommend!
Lauren has been cutting my hair for the last two years. She does an excellent job and is very friendly. Her new studio is well decorated and super clean. I highly recommend!
It doesn’t get any better than Lauren! She is the sweetest but besides her amazing personality she does exactly what I ask for every time. She listens to me, tells me what she thinks will look good, and never disappoints!
Lauren & Co. Hair Salon is amazing! The appointment and confirmation texts are very helpful and appreciated. Congratulations Lauren. Best salon in Bloomington/Normal. Thank you Kim. Perfect haircut every time! I wouldnt go anywhere else!
The experience was over all amazing! My hair style ans highlights were perfect! The studio was clean, people wore mask and handsanitizer was handy at the front desk of needed. I think I found my new favorite place to get my hair done!
Everyone is so friendly and nice, the salon is bright and comfortable. Lori was wonderful to work with and I love my hair color.
I needed an updo and make up for myself and Mother in law for a Roaring 20s wedding and Lauren made sure she gave us enough time to do a great job, and that she did! She listened to exactly what I wanted done with both make up and hair and I would definitely be a returning customer!!
I have been going to Lori for years now. Lauren and Lori are very kind and connect with their clients easily. I have never in all my years with them seen anyone unhappy with their services. They make you feel comfortable and fit right in.
Lori was a wonderful stylist! She listened to me and added her own insights to create a cut that I love! I am totally going back!
Lauren has been cutting my hair for years and is amazing at what she does. She is very professional and I would highly recommend her to anyone whose looking for a new stylist.
I walked in with a bad haircut and a picture of how I wanted it to look...Lori made it happen for me! I will definitely be back!Update! Second haircut was simply wonderful! Lori, you nailed it again!!!
Kim is so friendly and easy to work with. She made our 3yr olds first hair cutting experience a positive one, he looks forward to going to see her now! We are repeat customers for sure! Highly recommend!!
Lauren & Co was awesome! Quick cut, small talk, and no hassle. Next day at work got compliments as soon as I walked in the door. So much better than the other nearby salons
Very kind staff! So nice! My hair feels amazing ! ❤️
Kim has been cutting my hair for years, and there is no one I would trust over Kim, Lauren, and Lori! Very personable ladies with so much talent and love for their jobs! This is the place to go!

Kim and Lauren are the best! Love the new salon! My hair always looks and feels great after a visit! Recommend them highly!

Lauren is a master at finding the perfect tone. She listened to what I was wanting and did an amazing job. I couldn’t be happier!
Lauren and her crew are amazing!!! Couldn’t recommend more - cut/color, brows and makeup! Had an event recently and Lauren made me look fabulous!

2022-02-16This was my first time at Lauren&Co’s salon, and I booked Lauren from reading most of the reviews and was the best choice I made! I’ve always been very picky about who I let near my hair and she did an excellent job. Her salon is so pretty and she’s super friendly! I loved talking to her, she makes you feel extremely comfortable and knows exactly what you ask for. I will be coming here more often and of course recommend her 100%. Also, my hair smells amazing I need to know what products she used because I need to get them ASAP. Loved every inch of it, thank you so much Lauren!!! Wish I could add a video but google doesn’t let me for some reason :/

2022-01-18I was referred to Lauren by a family and friend and I have never been happier! Lauren was able to correct a botched haircut and turn it into what I was truly wanting! I felt right at home as soon as I walked in the door. I was greeted right away and loved the cleanliness of the salon. Lauren took the time to look over the cut I had gotten previously but to also explain to me what she could do to fix the issue. She also nailed the color! It was spot on to the picture/color I wanted! I would highly recommend going to Lauren & Co. Hair Studio!!

2022-08-20I have been here twice already, and Lori was my hairstylist. She does an excellent job cutting my hair! She’s not afraid to get in there and cut my hair, she is very competent at what she does, and I feel confident in her when she cuts my hair. I went to another salon today, due to not wanting to wait until September for the opening to get my hair cut, and I noticed the difference. Today a girl took off like an inch at a time and was constantly fluffing my hair to see how it lays. Lori cuts my hair in like 20min and doesn’t need to fluff my hair because she knows how she cut it. I ask for thick layers and that’s what I get. Next time I will have to be more patient and wait for Lori to cut my hair again. I would recommend her to anyone!!

2022-02-20Love Lauren! (But all the stylists seem really nice.) I just moved to the area and I plan on going to Lauren regularly now. Already scheduled my next appointment.I hadn’t had a cut in over a year and I decided I wanted to chop it all off. I had long to medium length and went to chin length. I talked to Lauren a little bit about what I wanted and she nailed it. Love my new cut!

2022-04-21I was in desperate need for a new stylist and reading reviews I immediately chose Lauren & Co. Hair studio. Lauren was so friendly and made me feel so comfortable for my first time there. I will definitely be making her my regular stylist. I 100% recommend her for anyone and cant wait to go back.

2022-09-22My first time at the salon and I am very happy with my experience. It usually takes 4-5 hours to get my hair done...and Lori did my hair in under 2. I didnt get a haircut. Im very please! I wanted ash color and thats what I got! Thank you Lori!

2022-05-27Lori did a wonderful job with my hair. She recognized the troublesome issues I was having from a previous cut at another salon. She set about repairing them, I will definitely return and absolutely recommend this salon!

2022-06-18My recent perm and haircut look great: just the right amount of curl and cut. Everyone is friendly and the shop is lovely and clean. I plan to return regularly.
