Introducing HIP Emerging Stylist Marie

HIP Salon is thrilled to announce that Marie Russell has been promoted to a Hair Innovation Professional Emerging Stylist, providing high-quality hair cutting and styling for clients at a discounted rate while she completes her training.

A cosmetology school graduate and licensed cosmetologist, Marie joined HIP Salon as an assistant in 2024. In 2025 she entered the Hair Innovation Professional Training and Residency Program, and for the past 18 months, she has been training under the tutelage of Debra, Sal, and Jill, where she honed her skills in scissor cutting as well as blowouts and styling.

As a HIP Emerging Stylist, Marie will work more independently as she continues to receive feedback and guidance from the HIP team.

HIP Emerging Stylists’ rates reflect their experience. Hair cutting starts at $40 and blowouts start at $30.

Marie is accepting appointments Tuesdays 4-7pm, Wednesdays 4-8pm, and Thursdays 4-8pm. Schedule an appointment with Marie by calling 847-882-4474 or request an appointment at hipsalon.biz/request-an-appointment.

With Strand Plumping Technology, plus a mix of peptides and antioxidants to help boost energy and protect against external aggressors to create a healthy follicle environment, High Drama Styling Foam is a must-have heat-protective blowout foam for all hair textures and especially fine hair.
