What makes it different

Not a suite.
Not a commission chair.
Something better.

+

You're not alone in here

Salon suites isolate you. Commission salons control you. Fringe + Foil is an open, shared studio — you have your own station and the freedom to run your business, but you're surrounded by other stylists to talk with, share with, and grow alongside.

+

A space worth showing up to

Green cabinetry. Cognac leather chairs. Arched mirrors. Warm lighting. This is not a generic studio. Every detail was chosen with intention — the kind of space your clients feel the moment they walk through the door.

+

Completely on your terms

Your hours. Your prices. Your clients. Your call. No commission, no one looking over your shoulder. You run your business — we just give you the best possible place to run it from.

"I've known what a great salon feels like for thirty years. Not as an idea — as something I've built, again and again."

From her full-service salon in Western Springs to a shop in LaGrange Highlands, every space Kelly has built has been shaped by the same belief: the energy in a room matters. The conversations between stylists matter. The feeling of showing up somewhere you're proud of matters.

Even when she was renting a station herself, she chose rooms with people in them. Someone to share a slow Tuesday with. Someone to celebrate a great color alongside.

Fringe + Foil is the latest version of that.
