Will definitely be returning
I am so glad that I set up an appointment with Qiana! She washed, blow-dried, cut/blended, and flat ironed my hair to perfection. The best part, I was done in about an hour!!! The salon is very clean, professional and diverse. Will definitely be returning.

I could not be more satisfied!!!
After moving from New York City to IL late summer last year, I was desperately in need of some pampering for my natural tresses. I called to book an appointment and was immediately impressed with the customer service over the phone. The receptionist asked all the right questions about my hair and the services I wanted then made recommendations on the best stylists for my needs. A few scheduling details later I was booked with Qiana and I could not be more satisfied!!! She was prompt (as I imagine all the salon's stylists are), handled my hair very gently and in the end gave me a cut, blow out and style that was impeccable. My hair was in excellent condition when I left and the movement was a work of art!!! I'm going back tomorrow and CANNOT wait to see Qiana again!! If you have natural hair, give Maxine's a call and try Qiana out! You will not be sorry!!

I was in great hands.
I went back to Maxine during a birthday trip to Chicago. I was feeling a little blah and wanted to get some color added to my hair for a pick-me-up. As soon as I sat down in his chair I knew I was in great hands. He was very funny and friendly, and he put me at ease immediately. I told him I wanted to try balayage, and he suggested a mix of honey and caramel shades that would work well for me. I told him to go for it and as he painted my hair, we chatted about my birthday trip and he offered me some great suggestions on things to do while I was in town. After he finished with my color, I moved on to Qiana for styling. (I had been with Rivkah before, but she was off that day.) As Qiana blew my hair dry, it was then that I was able to see how amazing his color work truly was. It made me look younger - a definite plus on my birthday! Qiana was sweet and talented, quickly curling my hair into fabulousity. When I looked at the final result, I felt hot - and I hadn't felt that way in too long. I had drinks with an old friend after leaving the salon, and he couldn't stop telling me how great I looked. Thanks again, Maxine, for making me look great, and for making my birthday special. Qiana - I'll see you again soon!

One of the best cuts that I've ever had!
Qiana relaxed and cut my hair and it is truly one of the best cuts that I've ever had! I grew my hair out from a pixie to almost a bob, and it was difficult to shape. When I visit other salons, stylists always compliment my cut. To top it all off, I've never spent longer than 2 hours here getting serviced, true professionals.
