  • If you request significant changes the service(s) you booked upon arrival or during your appointment, additional charges may also apply. E.g. booked a full head of foils, but decide to only get a cut.

Compassionate Exceptions:

We really appreciate our wonderful, loyal clientele, and understand that catastrophic life events can be extremely difficult to predict. For this reason, unavoidable circumstances may be given compassionate consideration. If you feel the circumstances of your last-minute cancellation or reschedule were unavoidable, please let us know and your case will be reviewed by our team.
 
 

What is 'Fair Notice?':

For notice to be valid, it must be acknowledged by the salon e.g. your cancellation may not be received if you leave a voicemail or send a direct message or email outside business hours.
 
If your reschedule or cancellation request is received and acknowledged by the salon before the minimum notice period, you will not be charged any additional fees or forfeit your deposit.
 
The best way is to contact us is via phone during business hours, or, if this is not possible, message our Facebook or Instagram account for an acknowledgement or response within 24-48 hours.
 
IMPORTANT: If you have not received communication from us confirming your cancellation, your appointment has not been cancelled and fees as outlined above will still apply. 
 

Why we charge rescheduling and cancellation fees:

We find it almost impossible to fill cancelled spots at short notice. Last-minute cancellations have a significant impact on our business, our other clients and our team. Our deposit policy is the fairest way of managing commitment to an appointment, and has has the added benefit of avoiding cost increases for our wonderful, loyal clientele. 

 

How deposits work:

Your deposit is not an extra charge. It is held on an account for you and taken off your final bill when the booked service(s) are completed. Please be aware that the only way you would ever lose your deposit or be charged an additional fee if you cancel or reschedule a your booked appointment within 24hrs.
 

Appointment requests via Phone or Social Media:

Please note: we cannot confirm a booking without a 25% deposit, so appointment requests made via phone are not valid until your deposit has been received. While we are happy to answer any booking questions via Direct Message, for security reasons, we cannot take credit card details on any social media platform or chat service, so please call the salon or use our online booking link to secure your appointment.

Your responsibilities:

Please note: you consent to these policies when you book your appointment and pay your initial deposit. We consider this a contract between yourself and the salon that you will attend your appointment or give us 'Fair Notice' of any changes.

While we apologise for any inconvenience, please know that we have not made the decision to enforce these booking policies lightly. They are necessary to ensure our time is valued so we can continue to provide high quality client services and a secure working environment for all of our staff.

If you have any questions, we encourage you to contact us, but please understand these policies are strict and firm and will be acted upon without notice.

Important: It is your responsibility to contact us and to ensure we have confirmed any appointment changes before the 'Fair Notice' periods apply. If changes are not confirmed by us, it means your communication has not been received.
