New Client Services
what is gratuity-free & hourly pricing?
Put simply, it's a transparent and simple way of charging you for my time. You know what you're investing, no surprises! I can customize your appointment to your needs - and offer little extras as time allows - without additional charges.
All New Client appointments have a complimentary extra fifteen minutes—more time to chat, devise our plan, and play with styling options!
new client haircut makeover- 1 hour 30 minutes
$210 with gratuity included
This is the best haircut option for new curly clients, those with thicker hair and clients making major changes.
I specialize in short cuts, bobs, razor cutting, and curly hair, with a focus on easy-effort looks. If that's not you, don't worry! I adore my long-haired and high-effort clients too!
A note on curly cuts: My approach to curly hair is customized to you! I do both classic (wet) and dry cuts. It's about what you and your hair need! The extended appointment allows for resetting the hair, customized product application, and drying time.
If you don't think you need extra time, feel free to book the 1 hour New Client Haircut.
