Salon Skin Test & Chemical Services Policy

At our salon, the safety and wellbeing of our clients is our highest priority. To ensure all treatments are carried out safely and professionally, we have implemented the following policy regarding skin testing and chemical services.

Skin Test Requirement

All clients must undergo a skin test at least 24 hours prior to any of the following services:

  • Hair colouring

  • Highlighting

  • Perming

  • Hair straightening

  • Brazilian keratin blow dry

  • Toner.

  • Lash & Brow Tinting

  • Bow Lamination

  • Lash Lift
     

Why a Skin Test Is Important

A skin test is carried out to check for potential allergic reactions to the products used during chemical treatments. Reactions can occur even if you have previously had similar treatments elsewhere or without issue. Performing a skin test helps us protect your health, prevent adverse reactions, and ensure your treatment is safe to proceed.

No Skin Test, No Service Policy

If you have not had a valid skin test within the required time frame, we will be unable to carry out your treatment. For health and safety reasons, we do not provide waivers or consent forms to bypass this requirement.

Validity of Skin Tests

Skin tests are typically valid for a limited period. If you are unsure whether your previous test is still valid, please contact the salon prior to your appointment so we can advise you.

Client Responsibility

It is the client’s responsibility to book and attend a skin test appointment in advance of their scheduled chemical service. Skin tests are quick, free of charge, and can usually be completed in just a few minutes.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe, professional, and comfortable environment for all of our clients.

24‑Hour Cancellation Policy

To ensure we can provide the best possible service to all of our clients and manage our appointment schedule fairly, we kindly ask that you provide at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.

Cancellations and Rescheduling

If you need to cancel or change your appointment, please contact the salon at least 24 hours before your scheduled booking time. This allows us the opportunity to offer the appointment slot to another client.

Late Cancellations

Appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice may be subject to a cancellation fee or loss of deposit, where applicable.

No‑Shows

Clients who do not attend their appointment and do not provide prior notice may be required to pay a fee or pre‑pay for future bookings before another appointment can be scheduled.

Why This Policy Is in Place

Our team reserves dedicated time for every client. Late cancellations and missed appointments impact our staff and prevent other clients from accessing available appointments. This policy helps us run efficiently and fairly for everyone.

We appreciate your understanding, cooperation, and continued support.

Salon Deposit Policy

To ensure the smooth running of our salon and to continue providing high-quality services at fair and competitive prices, we require a deposit for the following treatments:

  • Highlights

  • Hair colouring

  • Perming / Hair straightening

  • Brazilian keratin blow dry

  • Hair extensions

  • Facials

  • Body waxing

  • Any treatment with a duration of 1 hour or more

Deposit Requirement
A non-refundable deposit will be required at the time of booking to secure your appointment. This deposit will be deducted from the total cost of your treatment on the day of your appointment.

Cancellations & No-Shows
We kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.

Late cancellations (less than 24 hours’ notice) or failure to attend your appointment will result in the loss of your deposit.

Why This Policy Is Important
Missed appointments and last-minute cancellations have a significant impact on our business. They result in lost time that cannot always be filled, affecting our team, scheduling, and overall service availability for other clients.

By implementing a deposit system, we can:

  • Reduce the number of missed appointments

  • Ensure our time is respected and managed efficiently

  • Continue offering high-quality treatments at fair and accessible prices

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a reliable and professional service for all our clients.

Thank you for your continued support.
