To our valued clients:
We want to share with you some of the adjustments that we’ve had to make to our salon operations. This is for the safety of you, our staff and community, and to comply with the requirements of the Public Heath Office. We’ve made many internal changes to our salon procedures but we wanted to share the ones that will affect you at your visit.
Please take your temperature just before your appointment. If you have a fever, please call us to cancel. We will also ask few questions before you check in. If you have symptoms of Covid-19, cold, flu, and if you had contact with someone who had been quarantined or suspected of Covid 19 in the last 10 days, we can not take your appointment.
Please let us know ahead of time if you are changing style, color etc.…
To minimize contact time, if you are changing style or color, let us know before hand (email to [email protected]). Searching through pictures at the station might go over your appointment time and worst case, we will not be able to serve you.
We cannot do complimentary service
For the time being, we cannot offer hand massage, lipstick touch up, head massage, or men’s mini facial. We are hoping this is temporary.
Please be on time for your appointment
If you are more than 5 minutes late, we may not be able to serve you.
Please come alone to your appointment. We will not accommodate extra family members, children or friends. If they come with you, they will need to wait outside.
All guests will be required to wear a mask that hooks behind the ears (all staff members will be required to wear masks as well). We will do our best to apply your hair color without getting it on your mask. It would be best to use a disposable mask if you are concerned about hair color stains.
When you arrive at the salon, please wait outside or in your car. We will call you to come in (or wave at you). This will eliminate extra people in the salon at one time and allow us to clean the styling stations between clients. When you come in, we'll ask that you use the hand sanitizer at the door.
Upon entering the salon, you’ll go right to the styling chair with the stylist. Please hang up your jacket and belongings yourself.
We will NOT be having you change into gowns. Please wear an older T-shirt or something that has a lower neckline. We will be using styling capes as usual (which are always washed in between uses).
Guests will be seated at every other station and 2m apart. For the time being, there is no waiting area or magazines like in the before times.
Cancelation/Rescheduling
If you are sick, having symptoms of cold, flu, or Covid19, please do not come to the salon. Please let us know at 604-734-5262. We will waive the 48-hour cancelation fee due to illness, but no shows will be charged in full. Rescheduling before 48 hours is acceptable, but after that time with no reason, we will charge in full also. Please be mindful when you make an appointment that cancelling or rescheduling will disrupt our business much more than it would in the before times. If your service is more than 1 hour booking time, we will require your credit card information.
We are temporarily suspending some discounts – But referral program is on going now!
Please know how very important providing excellent service is to us! These new measures we are taking are temporary until we can get back to the full level of service we would like to provide. We hope that will be sooner than later!
We sincerely appreciate your support. This situation has certainly brought on some challenges, but we are determined to rise to the occasion with a positive attitude and high level of professionalism.
We ask that you please be patient with us as we make the necessary adjustments.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
