Silent appointment? What is that?
Have you ever avoided going to salons because you don’t want to be forced into small talk? Or maybe you’ve had a rough day and you really just need some peace and quiet - whatever the case may be, silent appointments give your stylist the cue that they don’t have to perform that way. Aaand they give you non-judgmental permission to just chill.
Need a little extra sensory support? We have fidget toys and disposable ear plugs at the ready.
