Modern Wave is now second-generation owned. Our previous owner, Ted Arcienega retired after 40 years in the industry. We've been lucky enough to have Ted mentor many hairstylists including one of our owners. We are a mother-and-daughter-owned salon. Having both grown up in the Bridgeport neighborhood and being long-time patrons of Modern Wave Salon, it's grown to become more. Modern Wave is more than a salon to us, it’s family, from the staff, to clients.
Our Team
Our team of color specialists, balayage experts, and nail technicians brings genuine craft and neighborhood heart to every guest who sits in our Chicago chairs. Continuously trained by distinguished Redken artists, each stylist holds both the technical skill and personal care that set Modern Wave Salon apart.
