New clients

Your first visit, start to finish

New to the chair? Here's exactly how it works. No pressure, and no judgment about whatever your hair has been through.

  1. Book online. Takes about a minute. If you're not sure what to book, start with the free 15-minute consultation.
  2. We talk first. Your hair history, your photos, and an honest answer about what your hair can do. You'll know your full price before anything gets mixed.
  3. The appointment. Color services finish with a custom toner and a blowout, so you walk out seeing the finished look.
  4. Before you leave. A simple home-care plan and your next appointment on the books if you want it. Most color clients come back every 8 to 14 weeks.

Good questions

What should I book if I'm not sure what I need?

Book the free consultation. It's 15 minutes, online, and there's no pressure to book a service after. You'll leave knowing exactly what your hair needs and what it costs.

What should I bring to my first appointment?

Photos of hair you love, and your honest hair history: anything that's touched your hair in the last two years, including box dye, henna, and keratin treatments. The more honest the history, the better the result.

Do I need to put money down to book?

Only heavy blonding takes a $50 deposit at booking. Everything else just books. Heads up: there's a 50% fee for cancellations within 24 hours of the appointment and for no-shows.

How long will I be there?

Color appointments run about 2 to 4 hours depending on the service. Bring a book or your headphones and settle in. The exact time estimate is on each service when you book.

Where do I park?

Free parking right at the door at Mane Street Hair Studio, 1780 Eastern Blvd in Essex.
