Description: Van Cleef Hair Studio has been Chicago’s premiere Multi-Cultural full service salon for almost 30 years. Whether your hair is natural or relaxed, straight or curly, kinky or fine texture…..Rahni (Michael) Flowers and his talented staff have you covered.

Rahni Flowers is the creator and proprietor of Van Cleef. He received his degree in Cosmetology in 1977 and has been thriving in the hair care industry ever since. Rahni opened Van Cleef Hair Studio in Chicago’s River North/Gold Coast area in 1981 and has been a mainstay at this location ever since. While other businesses come and go Rahni has maintained a consistent clientele and celebrity following. The services provided are for all hair types and for both men and women:

– Haircuts, Relaxers, Highlights, Texturizers, Clarifying Treatments, Thermal Styling, Natural Hair Styling, Dreadlock Creations, and Extensions

SalonMainFloor (Medium) I have been going to Van Cleef myself for over 3 years and can attest to his concern for healthy hair and a happy spirit. Rahni’s high standards and his rigorous training programs has become a signature of the Van Cleef experience. The professionalism of his staff should be noted. Going to other salons I would be waiting up to 3 hours or more to get my services completed. Rahni average salon time from start to finish is 1.5 hours. Don’t just take my word for it though. Many celebrity clients have gone to Van Cleef such as: Kerry Washington, Regina Taylor, Sinbad, Carol Mosely-Braun, and our very own First Lady….Michelle Obama. Michelle Obama started going to Rahni when she was eighteen years old and was a client of Rahni’s for 27 years before she moved to Washington, DC. Rahni did Michelle’s hair for the most important events of her life: wedding, election night, and the inauguration as well as the events surrounding the day.

With celebrity acclaim also comes many prominent publications recognizing Rahni and the wonderful team at Van Cleef Hair Studio: Essence, Allure, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, Crain’s Chicago Business, and the lists go on and on…

On the second floor of Van Cleef Hair Studio they provide the following services:
– Manicure/Pedicure
– Waxing
– Facials

Check out the Van Cleef Hair Studio website for a more detailed listing of services and prices. Make sure to call and make an appointment for a consultation.
