Base Salon | Chicago’s West Loop destination for extensions, blonding, and Brazilian Blowout smoothing treatments!

hi! im krysta!

I built Base Salon in 2016 from the ground up with one clear goal: to create a space where exceptional hair and a great experience go hand in hand. It started with just me, but I’ve carefully curated a team of top-tier stylists—true experts who don’t just do great hair but also mentor and lead in this industry.

Our clients are women who expect quality—working professionals, stay-at-home and Pilates moms, and even their kids and husbands. They want a salon that delivers amazing hair without the fuss. At Base, we focus on precision, artistry, and a laid-back luxury experience that fits into real life.

At Base, it’s about more than great hair-it’s about making you feel effortlessly cool and confident. Nothing pretentious here- just expert styling in a space that’s cool, warm and welcoming.

“…literally was the best blowout I can remember getting. It’s called BASE Salon, the stylist’s name is Krysta Rojas, and she’s just amazing. The thing is to get body in your hair where you don’t look like a beauty queen, but it’s just the right amount. I was very happy.”
