Tres Studios Introduce
For Illinois residents seeking an elevated, highly personalized hair care experience, Tres Studios in Chicago offers an exceptional blend of master artistry and private luxury. Located within the professional Sola Salon Studios complex in the heart of Lakeview, Tres Studios is the exclusive domain of Master Stylist Juan Alvarez. After years of working in busy, multi-tasking salon environments, Juan created Tres Studios as a "private, safe, studio space" to focus entirely on one client at a time, ensuring a superior, unhurried, and meticulous service.
The core of Tres Studios’ offering is precision and specialization. Juan Alvarez is not only a seasoned stylist with over 20 years of experience but also a Master Artisan for Alfaparf Milano, which speaks to his deep, technical knowledge in Hair coloring and color theory. This expertise is consistently confirmed in glowing customer reviews. One client raved about the "gorgeous highlights" and called Juan a "brilliant hair artist," while another praised his "level of precision and understanding," especially when cutting "thick curly mop." This demonstrates his ability to work skillfully across various hair textures.
The studio operates on a strictly dedicated basis with an Appointment required policy. This commitment to one-on-one attention is a key feature, allowing for an in-depth consultation—as noted by a customer who happily took Juan’s suggestion for a new hair part and color placement—and ensuring the client feels "very comfortable the entire time." Tres Studios is the ideal choice for those who want to move beyond the large salon setting and receive truly individualized artistry.
Tres Studios is located in a highly convenient area of Chicago, easily accessible from both the city and surrounding Illinois suburbs. The studio’s precise address is 3355 N Lincoln Ave Suite 19, Chicago, IL 60657, USA. Situated in Sola Salon Studios, the location places it in the vibrant Lakeview neighborhood, known for its mix of local businesses and easy access to public transportation, including the nearby Paulina Brown Line stop.

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Just left Tres Studios with gorgeous highlights! Juan is a brilliant hair artist. His studio is private and cozy and Juan made me feel very comfortable the entire time I was in his chair.
July 16 · Tabitha CostlowJuan is incredible! He was super easy to talk to and Tres Studio is cozy and chic. I got a haircut and partial highlights and I could not be happier. His knowledge of hair textures and cutting techniques are apparent by the way he skillfully snipped my thick curly mop. Truly, I don’t think I’ve ever had someone cut my hair with his level of precision and understanding. I didn’t have anything precise in mind for color but I knew I wanted to go lighter. The face framing highlights he gave me are absolutely adorable. He suggested a new way to part my hair with this cut and color and he couldn’t be more on the money. 10/10!
February 02 · Katlyn Tenold (Work Chrome)Juan has been my stylist for two decades! I don't trust anyone else with my naturally curly hair. Through the years, Juan has given me everything from bobs to shags to long layers, and I have loved every look. He really understands my natural texture and works with it for beautiful results. He even styled me and my bridal party on my wedding day, and everyone looked perfect! Plus, his studio is beautiful and there is always good music and conversation.
November 20 · Jaclyn SorciJuan is the absolute best!! Juan has been cutting my hair and both of my older sisters hair for years. He also did our hair and our bridesmaids hair for all three weddings! Not only is Juan so talented but he’s also a great person. I genuinely love spending time with him and catching up while he cuts my hair!! He’s the best in the game!
November 21 · Meg WebbJuan has been my stylist for almost 12 years as I have followed him from his old shop to Tres Studios, which he opened on his own. Juan always does an amazing job with my hair and is attentive, timely, and flexible. Juan is just generally an awesome guy who’s really easy to talk to and makes the experience very relaxing and enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend Tres Studios enough!
