goldplaited - A Finishing Salon

goldplaited - A Finishing Salon is a Chicago (and Tampa) hair and makeup salon founded on the concept of letting clients outsource their blowout, updo, and makeup needs to a professional artistry team. goldplaited offers blowout, updo, makeup, and vintage hair services alongside hands-on educational sessions where clients learn to style their own hair, plus clip-in extensions through an exclusive goldplaited x Bellami line. Founded by sisters Mal and Coco in Chicago in 2013, described as pioneering the nation's first finishing salon, with locations now in Lakeview, River North, and South Tampa. goldplaited operates three locations: Lakeview/Lincoln Park and River North in Chicago, Illinois, and South Tampa, Florida. Wedding clients note that booking was easy, trials accommodated inspiration photos, and both hair and makeup held up throughout the full wedding day, including last-minute look changes on the day itself.
