    The best hairstylist - Michelle, you've done it again! I've been your client for a decade, and each time I leave your chair, I feel like a new person. This 2026 brunette look is everything - soft, strong, and utterly me. Thanks for the glossy glow and a life that's shining brighter than ever!

    Loved the layer haircut by Nancy! I would highly recommend her! She listened to my requests and also provided her recommendations.. I was very happy with my haircut

    Came in to get highlights and I was glad I was able to get it done as walk-in. Cindy did an amazing job! It turned out beautiful. My hair before was like 3 different tones of browns from a previous dye at another hair salon and im so glad she was able to transform my hair into something more pretty. Thanks to Cindy and her other associate for their time and talent. I'm from out of town but if im ever around this area and need a hair service I would definitely be coming back here.

    Asked for Michelle she is amazing with any type of hair service. She is patient, kind and listens. I have been going to her for years and she never disappoints me!!! Please make appointment beforehand.

    Nancy and Mai gave my mom and I excellent service at the salon! They were very friendly and attentive to us, constantly asking if we felt okay. They took their time during the service and we are both extremely happy with how our hair turned out. My mom asked for long layers and face framing pieces. Nancy did a great job doing exactly what my mom wanted. We will be sure to come back. Highly recommend coming to Maggie's Beauty Max!

    I love my hair so much!! I've gotten my hair done by Michelle three different times and have yet to be disappointed! My favorite hair and nail salon. Vibe is always good

    My hair after adjustments

    My before and after. I asked for long layers to make my hair look healthier. This is what i got after adjustments.

    The after
    Geetanjali M.

    I've just spent 7 hours at Maggie's. I drive 15 miles one way to have Michelle do my hair. Why? Because no matter what she will get it right. I see so many people saying that getting highlights done is so expensive. Yes it is, because it's a mind numbing, labor intensive process. I got there at 10am, I left at 5 pm. I went through three different stages of the color process; color removal, highlights, root touch ups. Each of these takes time and patience on the part of the stylist and Michelle has that in spades. I gave her a reference color scheme and she delivered. After three years of purple hair I wanted a change. If you're intending to do something like I have, make sure you take the time, don't rush your stylist and then say it's a bad job. I love how my highlights look and feel! Thank you Michelle! Pics attached so you know what the before and after was!

    Had a great time doing my hair with Michell! She is great and she will understand your requirements. She did my hair cut as I wanted to get it done from a picture, and also copper brown balayage. Highly recommend her for any hair services.

    Loving my new layered haircut- 4 layers

    The scheduling was real easy. I just called them and booked for the next day appointment. This was my first time trying this place for a haircut relying on my friend's recommendation. Hong started with shampooing and massaging my hair. It felt so relaxing and squeaky clean once that was done. I showed her some pics of the layers styles off the internet that I wanted for myself, and voila the results can be seen in my pics. She just nailed my expectations and now I can't wait to go back . Thank you Hong see you soon!!

    I did my keratin hair treatment for the second time. Cindy is the lady who did it. Thanks to her for doing amazing job. Also I did waxing for underarms and full hands which was not painful at all. UPDATE; I washed my hair after 2 days as suggested by the lady who did my keratin. My hair is already wavy which should not happen only after 4 days of keratin. When I did for the first time it lasted 1 year but this time looks like they didn't take the job seriously and I paid a good amount too. Not happy with the result after washing my hair.

    See all

Honestly, I still get compliments on my highlights even 6 months afterwards! You can tell they put their clients first, not just the payout. Insider Tip: They are rightfully very busy! They do welcome walk-ins, but it's definitely not guaranteed. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment in advance. Honor your appointment time or else you might need to get back in the queue.

    Inflated Pricing, Poor Haircut, and Zero Accountability…read more I came in for a haircut and a single-process color and was significantly overcharged. After getting home, I reviewed the pricing on your website and realized the charges did not align with your posted rates. I was charged $230 for color for a basic, all-over brown, single-process service. There was nothing corrective, custom, or advanced about it. Your website clearly lists full color at $150, making this an unjustified $80 upcharge. I was also charged $60 for a haircut that amounted to little more than a trim, despite your website listing haircuts at $55. Even worse, the haircut itself was poorly executed. The stylist did not use straight shears at all and relied exclusively on thinning shears at the ends, leaving my hair uneven, wispy, and visibly damaged. The result looks unprofessional and careless--my hair genuinely looked better before the appointment. I contacted the salon directly to give them the opportunity to address this privately and resolve the issue. They chose not to respond. That lack of professionalism and accountability is extremely concerning, especially given the clear discrepancy between the pricing charged and the pricing advertised. Between the inflated charges, the substandard quality of the work, and the complete lack of response, I was overcharged by $85 for a service that fell far below acceptable standards. This experience reflects deceptive pricing practices and a disregard for customer satisfaction. I would strongly caution others to verify pricing and think carefully before booking.

Based on previous reviews, looks like this has happened before. (First photo being the reference I showed). What I requested: warm balayage with lighter front pieces in the fronts to face frame. The issue here was that I had noticed that the highlights were a bit too brassy/yellow for my liking. There were some awkward highlight chunks, and none of the lighter pieces at the front that I had requested. I was honestly was willing to overlook it, but for $485 I figured I could just reach out to them the next day and see if maybe we could get rid of the yellow tones. They said they could squeeze me in, free of charge. Excellent. However, when Joy saw me and did note the brassiness, she said we could tone it down. I also requested those face framing lighter pieces as I had requested initially, but she said she didn't have time for it since they were squeezing me in. Fair enough. The end result however honestly left me to tears. This wasn't a balayage anymore. This was how I basically walked into the salon from the start. She accidentally went too dark, but reassured me that after three washes it will go back to the original as we had started. I get that, but having paid $485 to now hope it washes off? After three washes? And then I could go back, strip it off, and retone? She told me she was going to reach out to the owner to see if they could potentially do a partial refund. I decided to also reach out just in case, and what I got instead was a defensive tone, unwillingness to work out options, and to admit no fault. I'll be honest and say I appreciate Joy's acknowledgment and willingness to remove the brassiness and try to remedy what she could, but for the owner to essentially say nothing was wrong, I got what I got, and I already got a free retone and that's the best they could do. In our conversations, at first it was nothing was wrong initially, then well we HAD to use cooler tones to cancel out the brassiness/yellow so now it'll look dark in certain lighting (no, it's just dark), and verbatim, "The photo you showed of it looking brassy idk how that happened." Just own up that we fell short of expectations, and work with me here. For a "luxury salon," the owner doesn't give quality service, and I'm sorry Joy but the retone was awful. There is no balayage in my hair anymore. Edit (from O's response on Google): This is only based from Chris' response. The only explanation I got from Joy, as I was there and not Chris, was after I noticed the hair was too dark and the highlights were essentially gone. She said, "Well...maybe it's just the lighting in here." She gave me a mirror, then brought me up to the front of the store and had me look again, but no. It's still dark. There was no adjustment or neutralizing the brass/yellow tones when my hair was just brought back to a deep brown. I can't fathom how this could be called "corrective" when Joy said okay, two options. 1) We'll wait for three washes, and if the deep brown hasn't diminished then we'll strip it off, and retone. First visit I had explained to her that this was for a special event for me, and I can't wait for three washes to hope for the best. 2) Let me get in contact with Chris to see if we can get you a partial refund. To be honest, what made this experience potentially one of my most horrible experiences at all the salons I have ever gone to as I rarely make 1 star reviews is the owner's interactions with me, dismissing me, and multiple times saying "I don't know what you wanted. I think she did a good job." Joy had the right attitude about it, despite going accidentally too dark. Chris, your client communication is questionable at best
