Maria, Level 3
Maria is a Level 3 Stylist at Chroma Salon in Edmonds, known for her thoughtful approach to design, her dedication to client education, and her ability to create personalized, low-maintenance styles that highlight each guest’s natural beauty. Originally from Mexico, Maria has spent most of her life in Edmonds, giving her deep ties to the local community and a welcoming, grounded presence behind the chair.
Maria began her career in the salon industry in 2017, working in a busy downtown Seattle salon before joining the Chroma team in 2022. She initially focused on haircutting, and has since expanded her skill set to include color services, bringing balance and versatility to her offerings.
Maria specializes in:
Custom cuts for all hair lengths and textures
Natural-looking and dimensional color services
Face-framing and detail-focused design
Relaxing guest experiences and home care education
Guests appreciate Maria’s calm energy, precision, and ability to explain how to maintain their look between visits. She offers thorough consultations, soothing scalp massages, and polished finishing styles, ensuring that each guest feels pampered and confident from start to finish.
Outside of the salon, Maria enjoys walking outdoors, trying new makeup trends, and spending time with family and friends. She is fluent in Spanish and English, creating a more inclusive experience for bilingual guests.
Her favorite Aveda product is the Botanical Repair Bond Building Styling Cream, which she loves for its multitasking power as a leave-in treatment or heat protectant. It strengthens hair, reduces breakage, and supports Aveda’s commitment to clean, cruelty-free, and vegan beauty.
