What to Expect at Your First Appointment With Me

If you’re thinking about booking your first appointment with me—welcome! Whether you’re a bride-to-be, a blonde looking for dimension, or someone ready for a fresh start with a new stylist, I’m so glad you’re here.

I know how vulnerable it can feel to trust someone new with your hair. That’s why I’ve created a thoughtful, personalized salon experience where you’ll feel heard, cared for, and excited about the results.

Here’s exactly what you can expect at your first visit.

1. A Welcome Email with All the Essentials

Once you book, you’ll receive a welcome email that includes everything you need before your appointment:

  • My exact location and how to find the salon

  • Parking info so you don’t have to stress before you arrive

  • How to access the building

  • My salon policies for cancellations, lateness, and rescheduling

  • Instructions on how to reschedule if needed
    It’s my way of making sure you feel supported before you even walk through the door.

2. A Warm Welcome and a Thoughtful Consultation

From the moment you arrive, my goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident. Your appointment starts with a thorough consultation where we talk about:

  • Your hair goals

  • Past experiences (the good and the not-so-good)

  • Your daily routine and maintenance preferences

  • What’s realistic for your hair type, lifestyle, and budget

I take the time to listen so we can create a plan together—not just for today, but for the future of your hair.

2. Custom Color & Styling Plan (No Cookie-Cutter Looks Here)

Whether you're here for a blonding service, a low-maintenance lived-in look, or a bridal style trial, I’ll tailor every step to your individual hair.

I specialize in:

  • Modern blondes: dimensional, bright, and healthy-looking

  • Bridal hair: timeless, camera-ready styles that last all day

  • Dimensional brondes (brunette meets blonde): The perfect dimension and balance of light and dark

  • Hair health: glosses, bond-builders, and scalp treatments to keep your hair strong from the inside out

You'll never feel rushed or treated like just another appointment in the book.

3. Luxury Products & Treatment Options

Your hair deserves the best—so I use high-performance, salon-grade products from trusted brands like Davines, Formula 18, and others that prioritize both results and integrity.

We may also add a custom scalp or treatment service to help hydrate, detox, or rebuild your hair as needed (especially for blondes or dry-climate clients!).

4. A Comfortable, Private Studio Experience

My studio space is calm, cozy, and designed with your comfort in mind. Enjoy a quiet escape with refreshments, curated music, and even a small library if you're in the mood to relax.

There’s no chaos, no double-booking, and no pressure—just good vibes and great hair.

5. Style, Educate, Snap 📷

Before you leave, I’ll style your hair to perfection and walk you through how to maintain the look at home.

Want to recreate it yourself? I’ll share product tips, tools, and tricks you can actually use.

And yes—I may snap a few pictures (with your permission) for my portfolio because… your hair is about to look that good.

6. Your Next Steps

Before you leave, we’ll review your maintenance plan, how often to come in, and make sure you feel empowered and excited about your hair.

Final Thoughts

My hope is that you walk away from your first appointment feeling not just beautiful—but seen, heard, and genuinely cared for.

If you’re ready for a salon experience that’s personal, elevated, and all about you, I’d love to have you in my chair.
