The Ultimate Guide: What to Wear and Bring to the Salon

Do you feel nervous before a hair appointment? Indeed, getting a new hairstyle is very exciting. But, preparing for the salon can sometimes feel confusing. Actually, many clients ask us how to prepare. So, we wrote this helpful guide today. Therefore, let us explain exactly what to wear and bring.

1. Choose the Right Neckline

First, let us talk about your shirt. Indeed, the neckline is actually very important. Specifically, please avoid thick hoodies and tight turtlenecks. Also, do not wear bulky collars. Because, these heavy items block the stylist’s cutting line. Consequently, your haircut might become uneven.

Plus, thick collars easily get wet at the washing sink. Instead, please wear a simple, flat t-shirt. Alternatively, wear a soft sweater with a low neck. Ultimately, this simple choice helps us cut perfect, straight lines safely.

2. Show Us Your Daily Vibe

Next, we really want to see your true personal style. Actually, your hair should perfectly match your everyday wardrobe. So, please wear your favorite daily outfit to the salon. Also, wear your normal, everyday makeup.

Indeed, this helps us clearly understand your unique aesthetic. Then, we can create a custom color or cut just for you. Ultimately, your new hair will fit your daily lifestyle perfectly.

3. Bring Clear Reference Photos

Furthermore, you absolutely must bring reference photos. Indeed, talking about hair color is very hard. For example, words like “ashy” or “warm” mean different things to different people. So, pictures remove all the confusing guesswork completely.

Therefore, please bring three or four clear photos of hair you love. Ideally, save them on your phone before you arrive. Even better, bring photos of hair you absolutely hate. Consequently, this guarantees we share the exact same vision before we start.

4. Pack for a Long Visit

Now, let us discuss long chemical appointments. Actually, getting a perm or big color change takes many hours. So, you must bring some personal entertainment. For instance, feel free to bring a good book or your laptop.

Also, definitely bring your phone charger. Fortunately, we have plenty of power plugs available for you. Plus, you can bring your favorite snacks or a sandwich. Ultimately, we want you to feel totally relaxed and comfortable here.

5. Our Simple Pricing and Planning

Finally, let us review our simple booking process. First, big changes need a thirty-minute consultation. Specifically, this deep planning meeting costs exactly €30 upfront. But, we fully credit this money back to you later.

However, you just must book your actual service within three months. Also, you must use the exact same stylist. Thus, the planning meeting essentially becomes totally free. Plus, remember our standard haircuts always cost exactly €70 for everyone. Therefore, budgeting for your visit is very simple.
