Common Questions About Our Consultations

Answers to frequently asked questions about booking, pricing, and consultation outcomes.

Bring photos of styles and colors you like, a list of past chemical treatments, current products, and notes on daily styling. This helps stylists assess feasibility, recommend options, and estimate time and cost for accurate planning.

Most consultations last 20–45 minutes depending on service complexity. Color, keratin, and extension consultations may require additional time for strand tests or detailed planning. Your stylist will confirm expected duration when booking.

Yes — test strands are recommended for significant color changes or keratin treatments to evaluate uptake and hair resilience. We may schedule a separate strand test appointment if needed to ensure safe, predictable results before full service.

Some consultations are complimentary, while specialized sessions (extensions, extensive color planning, or strand tests) may have a nominal fee that is often applied toward service. We'll confirm any fee when you book.

Avoid washing or using heavy styling products the day of your appointment so we can assess natural texture and porosity. Bring a history of past treatments and be ready to discuss heat styling habits and desired maintenance for tailored recommendations.

Expect a hair and scalp assessment, discussion of length and volume goals, and evaluation of attachment methods. We'll recommend suitable extension types, maintenance steps, pricing, and may schedule a patch test or color match if required.
