Salon Policies

Due to last-minute cancellations and No Show’s, we have updated our cancellation policy as follows.

If you cancel your appointment within 24 hours of the booking or do not attend a booked appointment you will now be required to pay a deposit for any future appointments.

The deposit amount will depend on the services booked however, a guide amount is £20 for a cut and finishing service and £50 for a colour service

This deposit is secured in your account with us and is redeemable against all products and services within the salon.

All deposits are non-refundable, unless you request a refund by giving 24 hours notice and do not have an upcoming booking.

You can then choose to redeem this at your next appointment or rather than paying another deposit when booking in future, we can keep it in your account as a rolling deposit. (Any deposits held for longer than 11 months without you making a booking or using the credit will be forfeited)

If you cancel or move your appointment within 24 hours of the booked appointment, or do not attend your appointment (No Show) the deposit will be taken as a ‘fee’ towards the loss of earnings of the stylist and the business. You will then be required to re-pay a deposit for any future bookings.

We understand that genuine and unpreventable situations may occur, therefore In exceptional circumstances if you need to move or cancel your appointment within 24 hours of your appointment time, you will be able to do this only once.

If you choose to move the booking a second time within 24 hours prior to that appointment or do not attend for your appointment, your deposit will be taken as a ‘fee’ towards the loss of earnings of the stylist and the business and you will then be required to re-pay a deposit for your future booking.

3. Consultation & Allergy Testing

All new clients and clients returning after 6 months or more will be invited into the salon for a consultation and allergy test. This is where a stylist can discuss your needs and make sure that you are allergy tested with the correct products that will be used during your colouring service.

An allergy test at Sharp & Owen Hair Salon MUST be carried out at least 48 hours prior to your colour appointment. Please note that you may need testing for more than one product range depending on your requirements, which will need to be done 48 hours apart, with the last test being 48 hours before your colour appointment. There are no exceptions to this rule.

A  consultation is £20.00 whether you decide to book in for a  subsequent service or not. Your service appointment must be booked and attended within 4 weeks from the date of the consultation. The £20.00 consultation fee will be taken off your subsequent bill if you complete the service within the 4 week period. Please note some colour services may require a £50.00 payment  (£30.00 deposit and £20.00 consultation fee) to secure the booking. If you later decide not to go ahead with the service you may request a refund in line with the cancellation policy less the £20.00 charge for the consultation.
