FAQ’S For New and Existing Guests
*How to prepare for your upcoming session?
Please arrive with dry hair in its natural state. Clean or second-day hair is perfectly fine, but try to avoid excessive dry shampoo, heavy oils, or product buildup. Be prepared to share your hair history, including previous professional color, box dye, highlights, or chemical treatments, as this helps me create the safest and most effective color plan. Feel free to bring inspiration photos so we can discuss your desired look and expectations. I also recommend wearing something comfortable that you don’t mind having around professional hair color, no white please.
*How long can I anticipate to be at the salon?
Most importantly, please plan accordingly for your appointment. Depending on your customized color service, you can anticipate spending approximately 2–4+ hours in the studio. Every appointment is different, and I never want to rush the process. My goal is to give you my undivided attention while creating beautiful results you’ll love.
*What can I expect from my experience at Hair by Lindsey?
Your appointment is about more than just your hair. It’s an opportunity to slow down, relax, and enjoy a personalized salon experience. My private studio is designed to offer a comfortable, welcoming environment where you receive my undivided attention. No double booking, no rushing, just intentional time dedicated to you, your hair goals, and creating a look you love.
*Are you accepting new clients?
Yes! I welcome new clients who are looking for a personalized approach to their hair. Whether you’re ready for a color refresh, looking for consistent gray coverage, or wanting to completely rethink your look, we’ll start with a conversation about your hair history, lifestyle, and goals to determine the best approach.
*Do you offer consultations before booking?
Absolutely. I believe the best results start with a thorough consultation. For new clients, an in-person consultation allows us to discuss your hair history, current condition, inspiration photos, maintenance expectations, and desired results. This also gives me the opportunity to create a realistic service plan and provide pricing before moving forward.
*What services do you specialize in?
I specialize in customized hair color, dimensional color, and gray coverage. My approach is centered around creating beautiful, wearable color that complements you, your lifestyle, and your personal style. I believe great hair should feel effortless, look beautiful, and be maintainable between appointments.
*How do I know which color service to book?
Choosing the right service can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re new to the salon or considering a color change. That’s why I recommend reaching out before booking if you’re unsure. We’ll discuss your current hair, your desired outcome, and the best service to get you there. Every color journey is different, and your appointment should reflect that.
*How much do your services cost?
Because every head of hair and color goal is different, pricing depends on the service, time involved, and amount of product needed. I prefer to discuss your goals and hair history before providing a quote so there are no surprises. My priority is creating a personalized plan that aligns with your expectations and maintenance preferences.
*How often should I schedule my color appointments?
That depends on your color service, natural hair growth, and how much maintenance you’re comfortable with. Some guests prefer more frequent appointments to maintain consistent gray coverage, while others prefer a softer, lower-maintenance color that allows for more time between visits. We’ll create a maintenance schedule that works for your hair and lifestyle.
*Can I bring someone with me to my appointment?
My private studio is designed to provide a calm, one-on-one experience. I encourage guests to enjoy their appointment as personal time to relax and recharge. Please reach out before your appointment if you have a special circumstance or need to bring someone along.
*What is your cancellation policy?
I value your time, and I ask that you respect mine as well. Because my studio operates by appointment only, your reserved time is dedicated exclusively to you. A minimum of 48 hours’ notice is required for cancellations or rescheduling. Late cancellations and missed appointments may be subject to a charge of 100% of the scheduled service total.
*How do I maintain my color between appointments?
Beautiful color doesn’t end when you leave the salon. Using professional haircare products, following a personalized home-care routine, and staying consistent with your recommended maintenance appointments all play an important role in keeping your color looking its best. I’ll help you understand what your hair needs and recommend products and routines that support your results between visits.
