I do not see balayage listed. Do you offer it?
Yes! Balayage is the French word for "hand-painting," and I use this technique as part of almost every color service. Pricing is based on how much product and time your result requires, rather than the technique itself. For a sun-kissed, lived-in look, start with the Dimensional Color section.
How do I know which service to book?
Each service description includes a “Best for” section written in plain language so you can self-select without needing to know salon terminology. Still unsure? Book a complimentary consultation, and we’ll walk through everything together before your first appointment.
Do you require a deposit to book?
No deposit is required, only a card securely stored on file is required to reserve your appointment.
I truly appreciate your respect for my time, and I always aim to provide the same for you. I understand that things come up, so I kindly ask for at least 48 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. For the complete cancellation and rescheduling guidelines, please see the “Policies” dropdown just below this FAQ dropdown.
Do you travel for appointments?
Hair services take place at my private salon suite at 3520 Seven Bridges Dr, Suite 203, Woodridge IL 60517. For special circumstances, such as elderly or injured clients, I’m happy to travel for a haircut. Makeup services can be done in-suite or on location. A mileage-based travel fee applies for on-site bookings.
What if I have a lot of hair or extra long hair?
No worries—just add the Whole Lot-O-Hair option when booking. This ensures we have the extra time and product your hair deserves. A product fee of $15–$30 applies for color services.
Do you offer extensions?
Yes! I specialize in beaded weft extensions that look and feel completely natural. Hair pricing is separate from the service cost, so please reach out before booking your install so we can discuss options and make sure everything is ready for your appointment.
Are you the only one working in the suite?
Yes, it’s just me during your appointment. I share the space with my mentor and family friend, Airamanda, who has graciously allowed me to use the suite since May 2022.
do you offer bridal hair?
Unfortunately, I do not currently offer formal bridal hair styling. I focus on bridal makeup, which has its own dedicated site. Visit bridalblends.com for full package details, pricing, and to start planning your wedding day makeup look.
Your appointment is thoughtfully scheduled to provide a seamless experience. These policies are in place to respect both your time and mine, and to keep everything running smoothly for each guest.
Cancellation & Rescheduling
All appointments require a card on file to book. I kindly ask for at least 48 hours notice for any cancellations or reschedules. Changes made within 48 hours are subject to a 50% service fee, which may be applied toward your next visit if you reschedule. No-call/no-shows will also be charged 50% of the scheduled service, and this fee is non-transferable.
Late Arrivals
I understand that things come up, so I do my best to allow flexibility when possible. If you're running behind, a quick heads up is always appreciated.
Arrivals beyond 15 minutes may require a modification of your service or the need to reschedule, depending on the timing of the day. I’ll always do my best to accommodate you, and I’ll let you know if I happen to be running behind as well.
Service Adjustments
If anything feels off after your appointment, please reach out within 5 days so I can make any adjustments if needed. Adjustments are based on the original consultation and the agreed-upon plan, as well as what is achievable based on your hair history. Requests made outside of this window or beyond the original scope may not be accommodated.
Booking
Please book the service that best aligns with your current hair goals. I recommend reviewing the service descriptions prior to booking, as each one outlines what’s included and who it’s best suited for. If you’re unsure, you’re always welcome to reach out or book a consultation beforehand. Significant changes to your service at the time of your appointment may impact both timing and pricing.
Guests
To maintain a relaxed and comfortable environment, I kindly ask that appointments are attended solo unless otherwise discussed in advance.
