Common questions for salon services…

  • Do you offer perms or permanent straightening services?

    Not at this time

  • How often should I get a haircut?

    I recommend every 4-8 weeks depending on the haircut and how fast your hair grows

  • Should my hair be dirty when getting a colour done?

    No. Please arrive with your hair freshly washed and dried. Please do not come with powders or mascaras in your hair to ensure the best colour results.

  • What colour line do you use?

    I use Redken haircolour including Shades EQ, voted best demi-permanent haircolour, and colour/cover fusion for permanent haircolour results.

Common questions from brides…

  • Do you have a team?

    I do not have a team, it's just me! I am able to accommodate bridal and event parties of 6 or less (including the bride, not including any flower girls).

  • I am interested in hiring you, what's my next step?

    First of all, that is great! I am so excited to meet you. Next, just click on the “Contact” tab and message or call me to book an appointment so we can look at our contract.

  • Do you do makeup too?

    Not at this time

  • What is a trial and should I have one?

    A trial is when your hair is styled in the way you have chosen for an event before the actual event takes place. I always recommend brides having a trial because it lets you to see what your hair will look like in the style you've chosen, and it allows for the day-of hair to run exactly as planned with any tweaks and adjustments mapped out. As an added bonus, the second time always goes even better because I've had a chance to work with your hair and learn its characteristics.

  • How should I prep my hair before I come to get my hair styled?

    Come with clean and dry hair: wash your hair the night before the event or the morning of the event, but ensure that it is fully dry or there may be an additional fee. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me!

  • When should I book the trial/consultation?

    My preferred time for the trial is between 4-8 weeks before the wedding day. That being said, sometimes brides do their trial before or after that time period.

  • What should I bring with me to the trial?

    Any hair accessories that you plan on wearing for your wedding (or event). Examples are hair jewelry, a veil or picture of the veil, extensions, fascinators, ribbons, scarves, etc.

    Pictures of hair you love for inspiration. Try and choose photos that are consistent to your own hair and facial features

    Wearing white or something light and airy is helpful for a bridal trial so that you can better envision your look on your wedding day

    Bring a button up shirt, tank top, or other shirt that is easy to take off if you plan on changing after your hair is done.

  • Do you do on-site services for weddings and events?

    Yes, I offer in-salon as well as mobile hair styling services for special events and weddings. Additional costs will apply and the price will be determined by the location. If you have a wedding outside of Greater Victoria, please contact me to discuss further.
