Description
If you’ve visited one of the city’s many factory-like hair salons, chances are you’ve learned that top dollar doesn’t necessarily guarantee top service. Avoid the overpriced conveyor-belt treatment by stepping in to Riccardo Maggiore Salon, an orchid-filled, 5,000-square-foot space where each client receives an extensive consultation followed by a painstakingly personalized cut (from $105) or color (from $90 for single process). Milanese coiffeur Maggiore—whose résumé includes stints at Vidal Sassoon and runway styling for Missoni and Armani—also offers waxing, facials and nail-care services with the same abundance of personal attention. “Everybody wants to feel special,” he says. “Here, we take the time to do things right.”
