POLICIES
Thank you for taking the time to be informed of some of the business policies that Z.C. For Hair has in place! These policies are implemented to make sure we all stay on schedule with our busy lives. To respect everyone's time, a deposit must be paid at the time of scheduling for all appointments each time.

Deposits, Re-schedule & Cancellations
​
  • When a service is chosen by a customer on the booking site, it is received as a request for an appointment. All service requests are accompanied by a deposit prepayment that is "pending" until the request is either accepted or declined. You will receive an automated email stating that your request is being reviewed. When the appointment request has been accepted, you will receive an email with confirmation that the appointment was accepted and your card, then your card is actually charged the prepayment (and no longer "pending"). When an appointment request has been declined, you will receive an automated email with a message that the appointment was declined. The deposit prepayment is then released out of escrow back in to your account (the pending charge comes off your account). If you haven't received an automated email stating your appointment was accepted or declined in approximately 3 business days, check your email or square messaging inbox to see if we needed additional information from you.
  • Deposit prepayments will go towards the service cost. If you requested an appointment directly with Zarinah or the administrator, an invoice will be sent to you to collect payment of the deposit. Payment must be collected as soon as possible to avoid losing the desired spot.
  • If for some reason you can't make it to your appointment, inform Zarinah within 48-hours before the beginning of the appointment and the deposit/prepayment will go towards a 1-time opportunity to reschedule.
  • Only 1 reschedule attempt will be made before a deposit/prepayment will automatically forfeit. The new rescheduled slot must be booked within 2 weeks of the original appointment in order to avoid losing the deposit. However, please keep in mind, that about 75% of all appointments are pre-booked 1-3 months in advance by new and established clientele on a regular basis. Therefore, there is no guarantee that there will be a slot available for rescheduling during this 2 week window.
  • Failure to reschedule 48-hours before the beginning of the original appointment will forfeit the deposit prepayment and an additional 50% charge of the total service cost will incur to the client.
  • Failure to cancel 48-hours before the beginning of the original appointment will forfeit the deposit prepayment and an additional 50% charge of the total service cost will incur to the client.
  • If you must cancel before 48-hours of the original appointment rather than reschedule, the deposit/prepayment will automatically forfeit.
  • If you requested the wrong service (that was accepted), but you show up requesting a different service that isn't equivalent in pricing and duration, you will be charged a 50% cancellation fee in addition to the actual service.
  • If you show up for your scheduled appointment but ask to cancel the service, you will be charged 100% of the total service cost as a cancellation fee.
  • We are not responsible for cancellation requests attempted but not made, requests texted, messaged on social media or requests sent to the wrong email address.
  • No-Show will be charged 100% of the total service cost.
  • All policies are applicable to video appointments as well.
  • Failure to arrive to your appointment without following pre-service guidelines (i.e. detox, e.tc.) may result in cancellation of your appointment, a cancellation fee, and forfeiture of your deposit prepayment.
  • Excessive scheduling changes, payment collection issues, or failure to follow at-home, pre and post-service guidelines will result in termination of the business-client relationship and future bookings will be declined. We reserve the right to refuse service.
  • If Zarinah has a rare need to cancel your appointment, a serious effort will be made to reschedule your appointment to the soonest available date possible.
  • Deposits/prepayments are NON-REFUNDABLE once an appointment request has been actually accepted.

Payments and Service Costs

  • Credit/debit card must be entered on the booking site to prepay the deposit or prepay for a service appointment while choosing your appointment online. The remaining balance is due at the time of your appointment.
  • Cash and card payments are acceptable forms of payment. However, contactless payments are taking priority due to covid-19.
  • Card payments may incur a minimum of 2.80% fee.
  • ​​Sorry, personal checks are not accepted at this time.
  • ​Please allow approximately 72 business hours for a follow-up email or text with the status of your appointment request. Additional information may be needed from you through email or the Square online messaging feature (text) before your request is accepted. If the additional information is not received in a timely manner, the service may be declined and the pre-payment will release out of "escrow" back into your bank account. ​

Running Late?
  • ​Life happens! So if you're running late, please contact Zarinah so that she knows to still expect you. However, if your arrival time will significantly interfere with other appointments, then your appointment may: (a.) transfer into a "walk-in" service to avoid other appointments from running behind schedule. or (b.) need to be rescheduled for a different date accompanied by a new deposit payment in addition to a late fee (the original deposit will forfeit as well).
  • In case you're wondering, Here's what we are doing during the pandemic.

Service Satisfaction, Safety, e.t.c.
  • ​Please note that if a cosmetology appointment needs an adjustment to fully satisfy our guests, we give you a 3-day opportunity to do so at no additional cost. We do not give refunds.​
  • ​PLEASE NO ADDITIONAL GUESTS INTO THE SALON. Seating is only available for guests receiving services and for staff.
  • Do not bring children to your appointment. If children arrive with any guest, the appointment will be cancelled and charged a cancellation fee.
  • For Health and Safety standards, we are unable to use outside products; unless prescribed by your doctor.
  • Please follow all CDC recommendations during the pandemic in order to limit exposure.
