Maryam Kalhor

Founder, Master Hairstylist & Makeup Artist

When you cannot decide between the flowing romance of loose waves and the structured elegance of an updo, the Half Updo is the ultimate stylistic compromise. Velora Hair Salon specializes in creating breathtaking half-up, half-down styles that offer the security of having your hair pulled away from your face while allowing your luscious lengths to cascade beautifully down your back.

This highly versatile style is incredibly flattering on all face shapes and is a popular choice for bridesmaids, prom attendees, and wedding guests. Our stylists employ expert teasing and pinning techniques at the crown to create flattering volume, while the lower lengths are styled into soft, touchable waves or sleek, glassy sheets. It is the perfect choice for showcasing length while maintaining a polished, intentional aesthetic that requires zero maintenance throughout the night, holding firm against the elements.

I had an amazing experience getting highlights at Velora Salon! I have a ton of hair, and Maryam Joon really took her time to make sure it was perfect. She was incredibly nice and full of positive energy from start to finish. Most importantly, I am absolutely in love with my new hair color! She did a fantastic job. Easy 5 stars!

Maryam is by far the best hairstylist I have ever had. I have damaged my hair quite a bit in the past and I was so sick and tired of stylists not removing the red/copper from my hair without wanting to charge me thousands of dollars for colour correction. Maryam not only found the style/colour suiting my face and skin tone, she delivered exceptional results 🤩❤️

I had Japanese treatment here by Maryam with Milbon with my toner service and it was absolutely amazing! Not only my hair didn’t damage with color but also made it smoother and softer
I’ll do the treatment again.
My hair cut was also great I wanted to get rid of my ends but not getting too short and she did the best.
Overall service was amazing.
She’s also such friendly and nice woman .

I again went to see Maryam this time for highlights and treatment and it was amazing:) she blended my gray with highlights in warm tone that actually goes well with my skin color! As she’s makeup artist she really knows what hair color fits your face! She did my toning twice as she wanted to make sure I love the color results and I’m totally in Love! Thanks Maryam joon

I had an exceptional experience with Maryam today. My hair was quite uneven, jet black at the ends and orange-red at the roots and I didn’t expect such a seamless transformation. Maryam exceeded every expectation. She corrected the color beautifully, eliminated all the redness, and added soft, dimensional highlights, all while maintaining the health and integrity of my hair. The result is exactly what I envisioned. I couldn’t be happier.

I had a great experience at Velora Hair Salon with Maryam. She is extremely professional and truly takes her time with her work. You can tell she really cares about doing things properly and never rushes the process.
Maryam also gives honest and helpful advice on what haircut and style best suit your face shape, which I really appreciated. She is very friendly, warm, and easy to talk to, making the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable.
The salon itself is very clean, well-organized, and hygienic, including all the tools and work areas. I’m very happy with my haircut and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and thoughtful hairstylist.
Overall, I had a truly wonderful experience, and I will definitely be returning to her for all my future haircuts and beauty services.

Wow, I’ve been trying to find someone to trust with my hair for years, and I finally found Velora Hair Salon from a referral from my aunt. I let her free to do what she wanted to my hair that had been poorly colored over the years and she delivered! I love my hair and will keep coming back to Maryam.

I honestly had lost hope with my hair. It had turned really brassy and orange, looked dull, and I couldn’t stand it anymore. I felt like nothing could fix it. But Maryam truly worked a miracle. With so much patience, skill, and experience, she brought my hair back to life and achieved exactly the color I wanted all while keeping it healthy.
I’m so grateful for her work and I highly recommend her to anyone who wants beautiful, healthy color. ♥️

Salon Velora has welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. Mila P.
