Frequently Asked Questions
The best shampoo experience of your life! The health of your hair is directly tied to the health of your scalp which often gets neglected, to care for your scalp we provide a service that we call a Scalp Facial. Our shampoo beds come directly from Japan and our staff has learned under a certified trichologist who studied in Japan. Your service will include a detailed cleanse and treatment, a detailed massage and shampoo, a deep condition, and finishing scalp toner all while relaxing under a warming UV red light and fluffy blanket. This service books out for 90 minutes. It’s pretty amazing, trust us, we’ve tried it!
We recommend booking every 4 to 6 weeks. Getting regular scalp facials is beneficial for hair and scalp conditions providing the optimal growth environment.
A blow dry is not included in our Scalp Facial however, you can add a blow dry on as a separate service! If you do not wish to add a blow dry on to your Scalp Facial, we do have a self-dry blow dry bar provided that is adjacent to the salon floor. The self-dry bar will include products, brushes, and blow dryers available to you at no additional cost!
We recommend waiting 48 hours before or after an on the scalp color service to schedule your scalp facial to ensure we don’t overwhelm your scalp! If you have tape or sewn-in extensions, we recommend scheduling your scalp facial in between removal and reinstall, this way your extensions aren’t compromised, and you can have the full experience! It’s also a really great way to get your scalp prepped and ready for your next extension service! If you have further questions, ask one of our stylists!
No! Each stylist will do a thorough consultation at the beginning of every hair service to help determine your desired look. Having had your colors done and knowing your season can enhance this experience, but it is not necessary.
If you are in the market for a color that doesn’t occur in nature, we’d love to help you with that! First off — please come in for a consultation! We want to make sure you and your stylist are on the same page. Also, we want to make sure we have enough of your desired color on hand! But also, we want to be transparent and let you know that fashion colors won’t last as long as the traditional colors. Because of this your stylist may suggest starting with a darker shade in order to ensure longevity. That way you can enjoy your color even as it fades.
Yes. All of our stylists are commission based, so it’s most advantageous for our stylists to be fully booked! We do understand there are extenuating circumstances, please view the link here for the full policy.
