I don't know what services I need but I am ready to
schedule an appointment. What should I book?
I understand the choices can be overwhelming so, I want to ensure you select the best service option. Let's chat about it during a consultation. That way, I can carve out a special time just for you to have my undivided attention for your hair goals.
I have natural and curly hair, but I like to wear it straight sometimes.
Would a curl cut be right for me?
Both a Curl Cut and Rëzo Cut is recommend for people who wear their natural curls at least 90% of the time. If you're unsure, I recommend booking a consultation to receive a more personalized recommendation.
Do you charge a detangle fee?
I know detangling seems like a sport for some! It does take some skill and patience to master. However, It's best to arrive to your appointment with completely detangled hair to avoid delays. If it is discovered that your hair is very tangled during your session, a detangle fee charged per half-hour will be applied to your final service cost.
Will I get a 7-day wash-n-go?
It's possible! However, it's really based on many factors for each individual client:
- How well they do their wash n go and how it's maintained
- Their activity level (sweaty, vigorous exercises, outdoor activity, etc.)
- Overall texture, hydration level, needs and lifestyle
- Traveling between different climates through out the Bay Area, different states, etc.
I'm interested in becoming a new client. I'm already on a water-soluble regimen,
and my last curly cut was done recently by a natural/curly hair specialist.
What should I book?
Thank you for considering me as your new hairstylist! As of January 2023, I am only accepting new clients who was referred or has completed a successful consultation and application process. If you would like to explore a partnership opportunity but wasn't referred, please request a consultation and fill out the application that follows.
I want to chemically straighten my hair.
Can I schedule an appointment?
Sorry, I'm no longer accepting new clients for "Japanese Straightening". This service is phasing out; but I could give you a referral.
My hair is thinning. Can you examine my scalp at the
time of my hair appointment?
I'm sorry to hear about your hair concerns. You can schedule a Trichological Discovery Meeting with me separately. Once we have mutually decided to partner with each other on getting to the source of your hair and scalp maladies, you will be instructed on how to proceed.
Can I schedule a color appointment?
You have to first become an "established client" for hair services with me before receiving color services. Currently, I only provide color to established clientele that are a good candidate for color.
What is considered an "established" or "existing" client?
A client who was referred and has completed the on-boarding process (Consultation and application) and has continued to receive regular hair appointments with me a minnimum of every 3-4 months. Any requested service that goes beyond that time frame (without being maintained by me), will be charged a higher price/new client service.
Do you take children?
I'm only taking new clients ages 18 and up at this time. However, emails will go out to subscribers when new adolescent clients can begin their journey at Z.C. For Hair!
What is the best way to contact you?
Email is the best way to reach me. I respond typically within 3 business days. However, my availability varies. More details can be referenced here: Contact Info
