Consultation Frequently Asked Questions Answered
Answers to common questions about our in-salon consultation process and availability.
During your in-salon Consultation we review hair history, examine scalp and strands, discuss goals, and outline a step-by-step plan. Expect personalized timing, service recommendations, and realistic outcomes. This meeting ensures your stylist and you share a clear vision before booking treatments.
Most consultations run about 45 to 60 minutes, though simpler assessments can be shorter. Time varies with hair length, complexity, and desired changes. We use this time for analysis, product recommendations, pricing estimates, and scheduling follow-up appointments.
Bringing photos or inspiration is helpful but not required. Visual references clarify styles, color tones, and shapes you like. Also note recent chemical services, product use, and any concerns so your stylist can tailor realistic options and maintenance expectations.
We generally recommend a consultation before major color changes, textured transformations, or corrective services. It helps determine feasibility, timing, and cost. Some complex procedures may require a consultation before booking to protect hair health and achieve desired long-term results.
Book your consultation online, by phone, or in person. Consultations are available only on select weekdays (Tuesday through Thursday), so advance booking is recommended. If you're flexible, notify us and we'll suggest the earliest available appointment.
Consultation fees vary; some are complimentary while others carry a small charge. When a fee applies, it's often credited toward your first booked service if scheduled within a set timeframe. We'll confirm any fee at booking so there are no surprises.
