Polite
Notice
Our Express
Service Menu has been designed and created for our regular clients, who at
times may not need a full salon service, saving them time and money. For example:
A client
who would usually visit the salon every 2-3 weeks for a Root Retouch can swap
out every other appointment for a “Quick Fix Roots” instead of receiving the
full Root Retouch service each time. The “Quick Fix” covers the areas they can
see, and they are still staying within the maximum 6 weeks for their regular
Root Retouch.
A client
with a basic one-length cut who visits every 6-8 weeks for an inch cut off
along the bottom, they don’t need their hair blow dried or any styling products,
and they don’t have any layers, feathers or texturing. From shampoo to rough
dry, the whole service takes 15 minutes. Our Wet Cut service is designed for
this client, since they do not need a Cut & Style, which is a 45-60 minute
service and includes all cutting and styling techniques, short hair precision
cuts, texturing, styling/finishing products or a Blow Dry.
A client
with a low maintenance cut, but has a fringe, usually gets a Cut & Style
every 10-12 weeks but needs their fringe trimmed every 3 weeks. The client
already has a sectioned, professionally cut fringe, they don’t cut it
themselves at home or want it restyled/reshaped. Their fringe trim is a super
quick service where they can drop in and we can immediately pick our fringe
section up and trim. No correcting or restyling involved.
A client
who visits the salon every 6 weeks for a full head, monochromatic colour. They
have a night out 2 weeks before their next colour, so rather than bringing
their appointment forward and receiving their full service, they have a “Quick Gloss”
to brighten their colour ready for the night out. The same client might later
want to try a little Balayage, but before committing to the full service, might
try out “Baby Balayage” first.
The examples
above are just a few situations where we wanted to offer our clients something
more cost effective and time saving, we also didn’t think it was fair to charge
clients for a full service when their appointment didn’t take up as much
Stylist time or use as much product.
Unfortunately,
we have seen a lot of people try to abuse this system and see our Express
Services as the “cheaper option” while still receiving the full salon service.
We have had numerous instances where some people will book in for an Express
Service (because it is cheaper), only for us to find out on the day that they actually
want the full-service equivalent. In these instances, we either haven’t got
time to upgrade to the full service, or the client is unhappy that a 45-minute
service costs more than a 15 minute service.
In some
cases, it might not be possible to offer an Express Service; A client with a
short hair style for example, will need a Cut & Style to ensure all their
layers and feathers are cut (they don’t have a style where we can just “trim
along the bottom” as per out Wet Cut), and the same client wouldn’t want a
Quick Fix Roots because the areas we don’t cover would still be visible under
their shorter hair. Sometimes a colour is not achievable in a single process,
we may need to pre-lighten, or tone, or we may need to carry out a correction
first.
For these
reasons, and to avoid any upset, confusion and false bookings, we have chosen
to remove our Express Service Menu from our online booking and it will no
longer be available to new clients without a prior consultation with a Stylist
to ensure the service is suitable for them. Regular clients can still book
these services in-salon, over the phone, or add them to their pre-booked service
plan. We would like to continue to offer these services to our loyal clients
and will be able to advise which services are best for you
