What is your cancellation policy?

All “no shows” will be charged 50% of their service ticket. Cancellations within 24 hours will be asked to reserve their next appointment with a 50% deposit. We understand that emergencies do arise, and we will address them accordingly. With last-minute cancellations & no shows we are not able to fill this reservation with another guest. We thank you for your understanding.

What happens if I’m late for my appointment?

With respect for both our staff and guests, we ask you please to arrive on time for your appointment. Depending on the schedule for that day, guests arriving more than 15 minutes late may need to adjust or reschedule their appointment.

Color Services

All pricing listed on our online booking platform is a base starting price. All color services are subject to change depending on the amount of color usage with our VISH color scales. We ask that you come to your color service with clean, dry hair. Fresh, clean hair will provide more even color results, better gray coverage, and longevity of color.

What is the Protégé Salon?

What is French haircutting?

French haircutting accentuates your unique facial features and considers the shape of your head. Think of your face as the light and your hair as the shadow. Your stylist will stand you up to cut the outline, then build your haircut from the top down to get soft, moving layers. Our French haircuts result in sexy wash-and-wear hair containing several different looks in each style.

What is French Balayage?

French balayage is the method of painting highlights onto the hair. This technique allows your stylist to embrace the artistry of hairdressing by capturing the highlight placements to complement you. Unlike foil highlights, the technique disguises unwanted re-growth lines and creates a more natural, sophisticated, and dimensional look.

Smoothing Treatments

During your consultation, your stylist will recommend a shampoo and conditioner to use to protect and prolong your smoothing treatment. Please note if you are not using the products recommended, we cannot guarantee the results and longevity of your service.
