HAIR CARE THAT CARES

ABOUT YOU AND ABOUT THE COMMUNITY

Maria Bikas Salon (MBS) has been serving London and the surrounding areas for 14 years.

They offer a variety of services including hair services – ombre, balayage, cuts and styles (both formal and everyday blowouts) – as well as personal services, including lash extensions, waxing, tinting and microblading.

Their philosophy: “We are your one stop shop to come in for your ‘me time.’”

With the recent movement toward a more natural feel with hair colour, they have been performing a service called ‘crystalizing hair.’ This means removing the pigment completely and giving back the sparkle and original colour and structure to the hair.

Another new trend emerging in the market is Halo Couture extensions. Maria Bikas, owner, feels that these have revolutionized the hair extension industry with The Original Halo®. It is a simple design that is self-applied and damage-free, offering hundreds of styles, lengths, colours and blends to create gorgeous transformations that clients love. Many women today are not willing to compromise the integrity of their own hair by adding any form of extension that needs to be attached directly to their hair.

Halocouture offers a new solution that provides volume and fullness with hand-tied wefts of 100 per cent Remy human hair. She says it is “like putting on your favourite little black dress. It’s as easy as 1,2,3! If you’re looking for fullness, volume or length, we have you covered. Set up a complimentary consultation with us!”

MBS is excited to launch a new line of hair care products, with over 40 years in the industry: Balmain. As part of the Balmain Paris fashion label, Balmain Paris Hair Couture has been combining hair essentials with the latest catwalk trends for four decades. The collections are inspired by backstage secrets, and they mirror elements that a woman needs to create a high-end catwalk-inspired look. Over these 40 years, Balmain Paris Hair Couture established its legitimacy in the field of luxury. MBS offers these products exclusively, so shop online at www.mariabikassalon.com. Community is a very important part of the MBS culture, so it is with great pleasure that they have partnered with Merrymount Family Support and Crisis Centre to create an initiative called Beauty With a Purpose. With every Balmain sale made through MBS, one dollar will go directly to Merrymount Family Support and Crisis Centre. This organization has delivered responsive and innovative services and programs to strengthen children and their families in times of transition. Merrymount provides a wide range of crisis, respite and early intervention mental health services and programs for children aged 0 - 12 in London/Middlesex, Elgin and Oxford counties.

There is also a ‘Donate Now’ button on the MBS website that links you directly to the Merrymount Organization Donate page, should you wish to donate separately.

MBS also offers free local delivery for online products. n
