**Appointment Policy Update** Effective as of January 1, 2024
1. Each customer is required to have a debit or credit card on file.
Same Day Cancellation/No Show In case of a cancellation, we do require a 24-hour notice to avoid losing your appointment. Same day Cancellations and no shows will result in a $25-100 fee depending on services requested at the time of booking. If for some reason the card on file cannot be charged or does not process, a deposit will be required to reschedule ANY future appointments. After two no-show incidents, your account will be notated, and you will be required to walk in for your appointments or pay 50% of your service total in advance. All walk-in appointments are on a first come, first served basis.
2. We run a very tight schedule; therefore, you will only have a 5-to-8-minute grace period.
3. NO SHAVING for 15 days prior to your scheduled appointment. If you book an appointment and you do not have an adequate amount of hair to safely wax, you will still be responsible to pay a consultation fee and you will have to reschedule.
4. NO SHOWS= No Future Bookings, unless you fully prepay for your next service
5. All services that are longer than 1 hour, requires a deposit that goes towards your service.
“If you are unsure of your own availability, we recommend that you wait until you are able to officially land an appointment that you can honor.
We are here for you when you are ready.
Let’s keep it classy ladies and respect each other times by being aware that we run a very tight schedule.”
