TRAINING PROGRAM AT MAXINE

Why are our stylists and colorists simply the best? It starts with our in-house training program. We spend between one and two years educating our assistants. The training program is based on a solid foundation of fail-safe cutting and coloring principles honed over many years of experience.

At Maxine, we believe it's important to focus on specialization. That's why you won't find a stylist who also colors, and vice versa. Specialization allows our trainees to really excel because their training is more intense in one area instead of broad-based in two.

Trends are taught as applications to a secure foundation. This insures a great look that is current, creative and functional. Our creative director and select colorists are continuously sent around the globe to keep them fresh and add international exposure to their teaching abilities. They keep the rest of the staff up-to-date with current fashion trends on a regular basis.

KERASTASE TREATMENT

Salon Maxine is a Kérastase Flagship Salon. The Kérastase Treatment Institute within the salon has been designed to pamper and envelop you in the total Kérastase experience.

After a comprehensive hair and scalp evaluation by one of our professionals, a personalized in-salon Kérastase ritual is prescribed.

The Kérastase ritual fuses advanced technology with the highest level of personalized care. It includes a custom prescribed treatment and a rejuvenating scalp, neck and shoulder massage that restores balance to your hair and personal well-being.
