Tips For Proper Etiquette For A Hair Salon Appointment

By Sharon Weeks


It is essential for a woman to be pampered. This is the reason why spas and salons exist. These are the professional places where people can relieve the body of the stress from work. When you book an appointment for hairstyling, then you better remember proper etiquette for it. Here are great tips for you to follow when going to a salon.

First, you must make sure to never go there late. If you arrive at the hair salon a few minutes late of your reservation, then you should not be offended if ever you get a short shrift. You might end up losing your appointment altogether. Being late is your blunder and you have to take the responsibility for it. When being late is unavoidable, then call up the stylist to let them know about it.

You have a number of hairstyles you can choose from nowadays. They are most likely published in magazines geared toward fashion and beauty. Once you find something you like, bring a picture of these styles to your stylist. You can then discuss with him or her what is the most suitable one to have for your own.

Styling usually takes up a lot of time out of your daily routine. That is why you must make sure to inform your stylist about how much time you want to spend for the said task each day. At most, you have to spend ten minutes for the said task. You should never ask for a hairstyle that will take longer than that to style.

The cost of a service must be taken into account as well. This is mainly because you got to be aware exactly how much you have to pay when the service ends. Never wait when the service is all over. Moreover, never make an estimate of what the cost is according to what price you know other spas are charging with. Otherwise, you might be shocked with your final bill.

Speaking out is something you should not hesitate. However, speaking out does not mean you should be discourteous toward the spa's staff members or your stylist. Better speak out but in a courteous manner. Show some graciousness when calling out a professional regarding something you need.

When you have taken a shine to the services offered to you by an expert, you better remember to leave a tip. Your normal gratuity rate for those working in a salon is around ten to twenty percent. Basically, this is customary. By tipping generously, you should be able to enjoy future benefits.

You might already have become a regular for a certain stylist. However, even when you have already shared its and pieces of your private life with that professional, never think that you are already close friends. Leave the relationship in a professional level with someone you only receive services from.

During the styling, you better avoid using your phone. You should only use the cell phone when it is extremely necessary, even if you do not want to chat with your stylist. It is actually rude of you to spend your time on your phone, especially if the text, call, or email, can actually wait.
