About Maree Chavez, Owner

See My Work Here!

With over 25 years of experience under my belt, I have seen and experienced many types of hair personalities. My role at Hair People has evolved and I now have the pleasure of being the salon's Hair Matchmaker. It's such an honor to listen to the needs of someone who is searching for a stylist that would best suit their needs. Each one of the girls here at the salon hold very special talents/skill and I take the job of 'matching' our guests (usually new) very THOUGHTFULLY.

I would love to hear from you and really hear what you are looking for in a stylist. You can reach me at [email protected] or 720-320-5646.

It is one time each month that I do something really special for me - Maree has made that happen. I would not think of going anywhere else. I would miss Maree and her staff too much. They are GREAT!” November 12, 2011

Matthew Hammel, Head Personal Trainer, Kinetic Fitness Studio

“Hair People has done a fantastic job with my hair. Before finding Hair People, I thought the hairstyle I had was the only one that would look good on me. The talented hair stylists at Hair People showed me otherwise, and for over three years, they have been making me look beautiful using new and different styles. I now get compliments on my hair frequently, and feel more confident every day, because of my stylist at Hair People. I wouldn't switch from Hair People for the world. In addition, visiting Hair People is enjoyable, relaxing, and stress-free, as the owner and staff have remarkably positive energy to share. I highly recommend Hair People, and Maree as a terrific manager, business woman, and great person.” November 9, 2011

“It just doesn't get any better than Hair People. Once you've gone you'll see why -- and you be spoiled!! I'm a "lifer" now......I can't imagine going any place but Hair People. (I've moved, so now I drive all the way from Castle Rock....but it's worth it!) The salon is extremely comfortable, all of the stylists I've worked with are Great, and I always come out feeling relaxed and like a new person. Maree has a true talent for haircutting AND for mentoring other stylists. She's up-to-date on new ideas, and is always trying to improve. GO!” November 9, 2011
