Stylists Drive From These Towns to Build a Career Here
MAK Salon draws stylists from across the Sound Shore and central Westchester. Here is what the drive looks like:
- Larchmont, NY — about 13 minutes via Boston Post Rd west. Larchmont sits on Long Island Sound with strong family demographics, and its stylists come here for a career, not a chair rental.
- Mamaroneck, NY — about 15 minutes via I-95 south.
- New Rochelle, NY — about 12 minutes via Hutchinson River Pkwy south.
- White Plains, NY — about 15 minutes via Bronx River Pkwy north.
- Yonkers, NY — about 12 minutes via Cross County Pkwy east.
For stylists who want a real career rather than a chair rental, that drive pays off in education, mentorship, and stable client volume. Across these towns, the local options tend to be chain salons, chair rentals, or salons that do not invest in their team. MAK Salon is none of those.
Building a Career at MAK Salon
A career in hair is more than chairs and cuts. At MAK Salon, careers are built around the stylist. Apprentices learn under Marie Maksuti, our founder and master stylist with 15 years of experience. Junior stylists move to senior in 18 to 24 months. Senior stylists become master stylists in 3 to 5 years.
Each level brings more autonomy and more education. We do not cap your growth at chair rental. We do not let chain-store quotas dictate your day. We build the kind of career you can stay in for 20 years.

Marie Maksuti runs the salon by example, not by intimidation. The team is small enough that issues get addressed directly and quickly. Senior stylists mentor newer stylists, and everyone shares techniques, tips, and client knowledge.
