All appointments require a VALID card on file to secure your booking. NO EXCEPTIONS. This ensures your spot is held and allows me to enforce cancellation and no-show policies fairly. Late cancellations, no shows, or rebooking fees will be charged to the card on file as stated in the cancellation policy. Please have the card you wish to use for session payment with you at time of service. The form of payment you would like to use must be present at the time of payment.

All appointments require 24-hours notice to cancel or reschedule. Use the links in your confirmation or reminder emails/texts. Late cancellations (>24-hours) or reschedules incur a $25 re-booking fee charged to the card on file. No shows incur a $25 fee per service scheduled to the card on file. I am generally booked 3+ weeks in advance. Last minute changes can affect your ability to secure a timely reschedule. MUTUAL RESPECT CLAUSE If I must cancel due to illness or other unforeseen emergencies or scheduling conflicts, a $25 credit will be applied to your client profile for your next visit. I will make every effort to reschedule you promptly, within my available hours. GRACE CLAUSE Established guests recieve one (1) annual grace appointment for last-minute cancellations, reschedules, or no-shows. After that, the standared $25 fee applies. SAFETY EXCEPTION CLAUSE Emergencies happen. If you cannot make your appointment due to illness, unsafe weather, or other major unforeseen events, the 24-hour cancellation rule still applies. My schedule can't be filled at the last minute, and short notice creates a financial impact. That said, I will work with you to reschedule promptly, and honor $25 off your next identical session to credit the initial late cancellation fee paid, if circumstances are legitimate. Established guests may still use their one annual grace appointment in these cases. Respect my time, and I’ll respect yours. No exceptions beyond what’s stated here.

Late arrivals affect everyone— so your time is as important as mine. 5-10 minutes late: We may need to shorten or remove some services. No changes to your session pricing will be made. 15+ minutes late: Your services cannot be completed, and full cancellation fees apply OR for longer color appointments, we may need to shorten or remove some services. Habitual tardiness: A $15 fee will be incurred if you are late to 3 or more appointments in a year. This ensures every guest receives my full attention and every appointment stays on schedule.

The safety of my clients, co-stylists, and myself is non-negotiable. I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who poses a health or safety risk or exhibits rude, disruptive, or inappropriate behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Lice, skin infections, or open wounds on the head, face, or neck. Contagious illness (fever, continuous coughing/sneezing, etc.) Any behavior that is disrespectful, aggressive, sexual, unsafe, or otherwise makes me or others uncomfortable. If a situation arises, you will be asked to leave immediately. Return may be temporarily restricted until health or behavior concerns are resolved or permanently prohibited if boundaries are violated.

Your satisfaction matters—but boundaries matter too. If you are having an issue with your cut or color, you must notify me within 7 days of your appointment. If I missed the mark based on our consultation, I will correct it at no additional charge. If you want a different result than what was agreed upon, a refinement rate will apply to shift your look to your new goals. I make every effort to get adjustments scheduled as early as possible after your request. After 7 days post initial service, the adjustment policy expires. Any requested changes beyond that window will be billed according to the standard service menu.

IN SALON Retail purchases can be exchanged for full credit within 30 days of your purchase if the product is 3/4 full or more. Refunds are not available. Exchanges will be for a product I determine is better suited to your hair and goals or credit will be applied to your client profile to be used towards later sessions. Products returned 30-90 days after purchase or less than 3/4 full are eligible for a 50% credit toward another product or future session. ONLINE PURCHASES Products purchased through affiliate links on my website must be returned or exchanged directly through the retailer, according to their policies.
