Extensions are a bespoke service with different types of fitting and colour choices. They are a long term commitment and require a home care and maintenance plan to ensure they remain in good condition.
We are not liable for how your extensions wear after you leave the Salon.
Hair is ordered in packs which are non refundable with the supplier, unless returned within 14 days of ordering, be unopened and unused, a handling fee is imposed.
Therefore a consultation is required for all hair extension services to enable your stylist to fully understand what you are hoping to achieve and make suggestions and offer advice depending on your hair type along with colour matching.
If you decide not to proceed with the purchase and fitting of hair extensions the cost of the consultation is £20.00.
If you decide to order and book in for a fitting you will not be charged for the consultation but will need to pay a deposit for the hair and fitting time. the amount payable will depend on the packs required (this could be a minimum of £100.00 or the full costs of the hair extensions plus £50.00 deposit)
If you change your mind, cancel or do not turn up for the fitting appointment the deposit will be taken as a fee towards the loss of earnings of the stylist and the costs to the business for ordering and returning the unopened hair.
Once fitted hair extensions are non returnable or refundable.
After a fitting you will be advised how to look after your new hair and to book in for your maintenance appointment. However should you have any issue with the hair extensions please contact the Salon for advice, we are happy to make minor adjustments free of charge if they occur within the first 14 days of the fitting, After this period there will be charge.
Any concern with the hair product must be reported to us immediately. As the suppliers of hair extensions have very strict criteria for any returns including not using the correct aftercare products, high heat application, poor hair management.
see below for some of the supplier policies:
• " For hygiene reasons, we can not accept any products back that have been worn or removed from the packaging or coils. Items will be returned to the customer and no refund will be issued if this was deemed worn or tampered with"
• "Any concern with the hair must be reported to supplier within a maximum of 30 days of the receipt date of the hair; this is due to human hair being a consumable item during wear"
• "do not guarantee the use of hair extensions whilst on holiday/in warmer climates for various reasons, including discolouration of the hair when coming into contact with swimming pool chlorine and the hair drying out through excess heat. We strongly advise all customers using hair extensions to avoid both chlorine and seawater as this can damage hair and hair colour"
