If you only associate "big hair" with "bridge and tunnel," Charles Maksou at Mizu Salon (776 Boylston Street, Boston, 617.585.6498) will set your head straight. His clients choose him because they know him as a consummate artist, the type who can give you an amazing up-do, sure - but when left to his own devices and using your scalp as a canvas, he can really whip up some big, bad (in the good way) tresses. Yes, meeker souls may want to be on alert and take the time to rein in Maksou's bolder inclinations lest they be left with hair too haute for their taste (we've even heard of front-desk staff warning clients as much), but the bold looks Maksou creates have earned him a huge reputation.
