Sam Maddux
Classic Stylist
Detail- orientedpassionateHair-health focused
I'm a third-generation stylist who grew up helping in my grandma’s salon, so following in my mom's and grandma's footsteps felt destined. I've loved doing hair since I was a little kid — though cutting off my best friend's braid while playing “hairdresser” wasn't one of my finer moments! Since I started my job at ROP, I've learned so much about hard work, dedication, and repetition… and repetition (rinse, wash, repeat!). I love and enjoy all the services we offer, from men's cuts to total color transformations — I haven't picked just one specialty because I genuinely love it all. But my real passion is making sure you walk out with your dream hair, and honestly, my favorite part of the job is you, the client. My goal is for every guest to feel relaxed and understood the moment they sit in my chair.

The consultationWhat to expect
I always start with a thorough consultation where we talk about your daily routine, what you’ve loved or disliked about your hair in the past, and how much time you realistically want to spend styling. Then I assess your hair’s texture and health to create a customized plan that fits your lifestyle and keeps your hair healthy.

From the chairWhat guests are saying
Sam was friendly and kind. Thank you so much for my haircut, pampering, and blowout.
Sam is the best!<br><br>Let me preface that I have been cutting my hair and dying it myself for YEARS. This is due to a bad experience I had when I was younger and just not trusting anyone with my hair.<br><br>I am trying to be more comfortable with others touching my hair. I saw the revie for this location and thought what can go wrong.<br><br>I called and got an appointment for the same day. It was perfect! Sam did a wonderful job taking care of my hair. She had a consultation with me first to ensure she knew exactly what I wanted.<br><br>Everyone was so kind as well! Sam did an amazing job with my hair and getting it to where I want to be with keeping in mind where I would like to be in the future.<br><br>Very happy I am came to this location and got such an amazing haircut and color!<br><br>(•ᴗ•)*♡

Samantha is amazing. I have never left the salon disappointed. She goes the extra mile to make sure that you leave there satisfied. I always leave there feeling beautiful.<br>The Salon is beautiful and all the girls are like one big family. Very refreshing to see how they all work together.
Sam is AMAZING<br>I look forward to all my appointments. Customers service is second to none and always given in a positive happy environment. 100% recommend! Love my hair!
I love my team at Bonita Roberts of Phil. Sam, Kristi, Becca, Anastasia … they are all wonderful! They do a great job making me look good and giving me a little reprieve from the crazy world as they massage my scale during the wash and give me a warm towel to relax as my hair treatment steams. And they are like family sharing our lives a little bit each week I come in for a blow out. Great team!
I came in as a Walk-in I didn’t have an appointment. Becca greeted us warmly at the front desk, and was accommodating and attentive. She made a wonderful first impression.<br><br>Samantha(Sam) cut my other son’s hair and was fantastic from start to finish. She communicated clearly with both us and my son, making sure she understood the look we were going for. My son wanted a natural but stylish cut, and she delivered exactly that. She was patient, detailed, and took her time to get everything just right. Before finishing, she checked in to ensure we were completely satisfied with the look. Not to mention, my son enjoyed whole process, especially the relaxing wash!<br><br>Her attentiveness and professionalism really stood out, and it was clear she genuinely cared about making my son feel comfortable and confident. The end result was a haircut that looked great and fit exactly what he wanted. We’ll definitely be coming back — highly recommend Sam!
Sam at Robert’s of Philadelphia is the absolute best designer of hair. She has captured creativity, knowledge, taken and social graces. Try her, you will not be disappointed.

Sam was a great stylist
Great salon Samantha does a beautiful blow out and great highlights!
Seen on time upon arrival, appreciate the coffee and snacks offered. Sam, as always, was professional, friendly, and listened to what I told her about how I’d like my hair cut. A long drive for me from East Naples, but worth the time for a great result.
I really enjoyed my blowout with Sam. She did an excellent job. I have very thick hair. It isn't always easy to blow dry but she was phenomenal. I will be back.
Sam was amazing, she did a great job fixing what I messed up myself. I'm so in love with the cut. Thanks again Sam and everyone there
Sam was awesome friendly listening and did exactly what I wanted and sold me a product too
Thank you so much Sam M. for listening to my desires and perfectly executing a fabulous haircut! I've visited all three of the Robert of Philadelphia salon locations over the last decade and every stylist I've dealt with has been top-notch.
Another great experience! Sam did a fantastic color application, roots and highlights. Unfortunately, we are moving out of the area. It took me over 8 years to find this salon. I hope I can find a place with such talent. Thank you
Please come out with some anti humidity products especially hair spray! I came from an Oribe salon and they really worked well for humidity. Otherwise all was great yesterday with Sam! Love the steam treatments.
RoP is a wonderful Salon. ALL employees are wonderful: respectful, personable, and most accomplished in their craft. I truly thank RoP and the service it provides to Veterans. Thank you. Peter K.
