How We Plan and Prepare for Your Appointment
I’m committed to giving professional advice and mobile hairdressing services. So before your hair appointment (and to give you the most accurate quote), I need to get to know you and your hair a little better.
Getting to know your hair
For starters, what does your hair look like right now? Pictures of the front, side and back are ideal. These should be taken in strong light (sunlight is best) and with no filters. Don’t be shy, your bad hair day and daggy pyjamas will be our secret.
You will need to tell me your hair history too. When was it last coloured? Has it been layered before? Have you coloured, bleached or treated it at home? Your answers can dramatically change how I approach your hair and the fewer surprises during your appointment the better the outcome.
Of course, you also need to tell me what you want done with your hair. Pictures are worth a thousand words. Do you want the style of a certain celebrity? Have you been stalking someone on Facebook with the perfect blonde tones? If you can provide me with photo examples I’ll know what to bring to the appointment and provide advice to ensure you get the best results. You can also have a look at my Facebook page to see some of my recent clients for inspiration. Of course, if you just don’t know what to do with your hair, I can help there too. We can find a fresh style and colour to suit you.
Preparing for your appointment
I might ask you to prepare your hair just before I arrive. In some cases working with freshly washed and slightly damp hair is easiest particularly if we’re starting with a trim or cut. Your hair is easiest to work with if it is clean and hasn’t recently been crimped or curled. If in doubt, just ask me a few days before your appointment.
By now, if we’ve covered everything above you should have an accurate quote and if we stick to the plan it’s very rare for this to change during an appointment. Take a look at information about my mobile hairdressing services to get a rough guide for what I charge for different services.
At the moment I only accept payment in cash so you may need to make a trip to the ATM.
Cancellations
If you can’t keep your appointment for any reason please try to give me at least 24 hours notice. This allows me, not only to schedule in other clients but also to reschedule a more appropriate time for you.
