New clients

Your first visit

Many of our clients have never had a stylist who works with their texture. The first visit is built for that.

The consultation comes first, before any cutting, pressing or color. It takes 30 minutes, and you leave with a plan, a stylist and a time estimate. When you book, you'll get a short hair-history form from the studio's booking page.

Bring or tell us

  • What has been on your hair: relaxer, color, henna, heat

  • How you care for it now, and what you'd like to change

  • Photos of styles you like, if you have them

  • Any reaction you've had to a hair product

Combs, a pick, a detangling brush and clips laid out on a salon towel

The consultation

What we go through together

  • Your hair history

    What's been on it, and when. Honest answers keep the visit shorter, and tell us whether a patch test comes first.

  • Your routine

    What you do on wash day, what you use, and what you wish you could skip.

  • Your goals

    The look, how long you want it to last, and how much time you want to spend on it.

  • The plan

    The service, the stylist and a time estimate, with a written quote for color and silk presses.
