Student Salon FAQ

Will I need to provide my own products?

We have products in stock, but if you have specific products you prefer we use, you may provide them and give them to your student stylist for use on your hair. We are no liable for any unintended results that may occur from usage of your products on your hair.



Do you sell hair?

At this time, we do not. We do work with a select/preferred vendors that we can recommend for you to purchase your hair. For styles that require additional hair (i.e., sew-ins, crochet) we require that you arrive with your hair.



I hate waiting. How long will it take me to be seen if I'm a walk-in?

We understand. Waiting is never fun. While we can't guarantee you'll never have to wait on a service, we can assure you if you do, it'll be worth the wait. We typically begin working with our clients in a timely manner, but if you are requested to wait, we'll inform you and give you an estimate on how long the wait will be, so that you can run errands or come back during the designated time if need be. We also encourage you to schedule Appointments to ensure your time is reserved.



I am not sure what hair style I want. Can you give me ideas?

To make the best use of your time and our students, it is recommended that you come in with an idea or a few photos of the kind of hair style you would like. Our students can then, better access your style choices and help you determine the style that will best compliment your hair type and facial features.



Can I see the same Student Stylist?

Absolutely. We recommend you choose a new student and a senior student, to ensure you have continuous service. We also recommend you pre-book appointments with the Student(s) to ensure their availability.



What if my Student Stylist is not available or doesn't show up for my Appointment / Walk-In?

If your preferred Stylist is unavailable, we recommend you re-schedule with them. If that is not an option for you, you can choose to have another Student Stylist perform your service and return to your preferred Student Stylist for your next visit.



I have a large family. Do you offer discounts?

Our prices are set well below Market Prices. For example, a family of 5 may spend upwards of $200 - $300 for hair styles and hair cuts. At our Student Salon, you may spend half. We do offer special promotions from time-to-time that can give you additional savings. Our clients often rave about our high quality and low prices.



Do you offer refunds?

No, all services are final. If you are unhappy with a service, let us know and we will work to resolve the issue.
