Appointments typically last 60–90 minutes depending on hair length, density and desired curl complexity. We allocate extra time for consultations, deep treatments or special finishing, ensuring your cut and hot curl are crafted with care.

Arrive with clean, dry or lightly damp hair unless advised otherwise. Bring inspiration photos and inform your stylist about recent chemical services or sensitivities. Avoid heavy oils or styling products so we can evaluate natural texture for the best cut and curl placement.

Yes, often we can, but we’ll evaluate porosity and previous treatments first. Some chemical services may require a lower heat setting, bond-repair treatments, or a modified technique to protect hair integrity while achieving desired curl results.

Lightweight curl creams, heat protectants, and flexible-hold sprays help preserve shape without weighing hair down. Use sulfate-free shampoos and occasional protein/moisture treatments. Our stylists will personalize product picks to your hair's needs and provide sample sizes to try at home.
