Maria May | Owner, Studio M Salon Hey, I’m Maria—the heart and hands behind Studio M Salon in Bloomington, Indiana. I opened my doors in 2015 with one goal: to help women feel confident, beautiful, and unapologetically themselves. I specialize in NBR hand-tied extensions and custom color (a.k.a. dreamy hair transformations), but what really sets my space apart is the experience. Think luxury meets laid-back vibes—with a lot of laughs and a little magic. My scissors and I have been around the world—styling at Paris Fashion Week, creating glam looks in Greece for influencer content shoots, and prepping pageant queens for Miss Mundo Dominicana in the Dominican Republic. And while all of that has been incredible, there’s nothing I love more than connecting one-on-one and giving my clients that “wow, is this really my hair?” moment. I’m also a proud mom of two busy kids, so I get how wild life can be. That’s why I’ve created a salon experience that’s flexible, private, and all about YOU. Come in, relax, sip something good, and leave feeling like the most confident version of yourself. Your dream hair is waiting—let’s make it happen. 💫
