SALON AKEN

About Us

After owning Bella Donna salon in Los Angeles CA for five years, I came to Chicago in the spring of 2012, where I worked 5 years as a senior stylist in an Aveda salon. I was born and raised in Armenia and since I was a teenager I realized I had a passion for hairdressing.

After receiving my diploma as a stylist I continued my education in Germany, Spain, Russia, Paris, Asia and now in the USA. Working with different cultures has helped me understand a variety of hair types and all things fashion.

I love to learn new trends but excel at classic styles too. As a hairstylist I enjoy working with bridal parties. It thrills me to make their special day even more special with my creative and extraordinary up-do’s.

My special techniques in haircutting and styling allow me to make my clients feel special every day. My goal is for my guests to experience the highest level of customer service.

I love to paint, travel and learn about history. These experiences bring out creativity in my personal and professional life.
