Its something that has always come easy to her, so she wrapped herself up in her passion and embarked on a career that has spanned over 30 years in the beauty industry. Having worked for Lise Watier as a district sales manager she gathered greater experience and created her own makeup line called MBS. In 2007 she opened her own salon in north London branded after herself, Maria Bikas Salon. MBS has been in operation for 15 years.

Celebrating people in their real, most raw, authentic brilliance is what motivates her and her staff in creating flawless designs. Maria believes in investing in her staff through countless hours of training. This ensures that her staff is up to date with the most current trends and techniques. Her artistic reach has expanded well beyond the salon and supporting local charities within her community. Her mantra has always been to “create and inspire” and its something she focuses on while creating her signature styles.

Maria’s creativity comes from her heart and expands outside of the salon to her enjoyment of music and singing. Having been raised in a Greek Canadian family her love of cooking also expands across multiple cultures and ethnic dishes, all of which is enjoyed by her beautiful family.

Maria’s passion for artistry is sprinkled throughout her life and can be seen as she’s spreading love through hair, one head at a time.
