Question 1

Consultations

Accepted Answer

For all new guests, a Consultation is required prior to scheduling. Consults are a great way to discuss the goals you have for your hair, before committing to a full appointment. They also give your stylist a chance to see what they will be working with and a better idea of how to time, price, and schedule your appointment!

Question 2

Accessibility

Accepted Answer

Consideration is one of the highest forms of respect.
It's not enough to say, "We're inclusive!". We want you to know and feel that Parlor is a space for you. We strive to make every client's appointment a welcoming, comfortable, and enjoyable experience, no matter age, race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, class, neuro-capability, or disability.
If you'd like an appointment with us and wonder if we are able to accommodate a particular need, please ask!

Since we opened our doors in 2014, our dedication to the belief of "come as you are" has been unwavering, not only in what we've said but in what we have shown. In recent years, it has become clear that this belief, an intricate foundation of our business, has become a money-making strategy for others. That has created a disconnect, as though, if we aren't actively trying to benefit from it monetarily, it must not exist. Common decency shouldn't be for-profit.

If you:
are physically disabled
are neurodivergent
have an invisible injury/illness
have a specific belief system (the need to remove a head covering, have a partitioned appointment, etc.)
are LGBTQIA+
are BIPOC
have worries/insecurities that have prevented you from other hair experiences,

please let us know when scheduling your appointment. We always do everything within our power to make your time with us the most welcoming and safe atmosphere for you. And if you are seeking an environment that is aware of you, we would expect you to be aware of others.

While we cannot control what's happening in the world, we do control what happens in these walls.

Question 3

Confirmations and Reminders

Accepted Answer

As a courtesy, we attempt to contact you to confirm your appointment three (3) business days prior to your appointment. However, if we are unable to reach you, please understand that it is your responsibility to remember your appointment and to avoid late arrivals, missed appointments and cancellation fees.

Question 4

Parking Options

Accepted Answer

Free street parking along Main, 22nd, and other surrounding streets! Please be aware of timing signage on certain blocks.

Question 5

No-Shows + Late Cancellations

Accepted Answer

We understand that life gets hectic but so do our schedules. We book our stylists very tightly, so it is important to be on time. If you arrive 10 minutes past your scheduled appointment time, it may be necessary to reschedule.
 
A minimum of two (2) business days notice is required when canceling/rescheduling most appointments. All appointments require a Credit/Debit Card on file to secure the appointment. Late-cancellations and no-shows (not calling, not showing up) are subject to a cancellation fee.

In the event that you miss three (3) consecutive appointments (late-cancel or no-show), you will be unable to schedule future appointments. However, you may be considered for walk-in appointments.

Question 6

Payments

Accepted Answer

A Credit/Debit Card is required to reserve any appointment. We accept Visa/Mastercard, American Express, Discover.

Visa/Mastercard/American Express/Discover GIFT CARDS cannot be accepted for reservations or payment of services. 
 
For payment of services, credit card, debit card, and cash payments are accepted. If paying in cash, please make sure to have smaller bills, as we do not have change available.

Unfortunately, checks cannot be accepted at this time.

Question 7

Children Policy

Accepted Answer

Our salon is not childproof; Sharp implements, hot styling tools, chemicals, and a busy, congested area make for a potentially dangerous environment for young children. We love kids, but the salon is not a play area. We do ask that if you bring your child to an appointment that they remain quiet and occupied. While this policy helps ensure that all guests enjoy a relaxing salon experience, it is primarily in place with your child's safety in mind. If your child becomes disruptive to the salon environment, we may ask you to reschedule your appointment for another day.

Question 8

Returns and Refunds

Accepted Answer

Parlor is committed to your complete satisfaction. Should you be disappointed or dissatisfied with your hair, please contact us within five (5) days of your salon service. We will do everything within reason to ensure your happiness and meet your expectations. We do not offer refunds.

Retail products may be exchanged within ten (10) days. We do not offer refunds or apply credit toward services for returned merchandise.

Question 9

Personal Items

Accepted Answer

We are not responsible for any lost or damaged items.

Question 10

We Aren't For Everyone

Accepted Answer

Parlor is a warm, welcoming, come-as-you-are salon. We have a zero-tolerance policy with offensive or harassing language and behavior from anyone, staff or clientele. Any persons participating in such actions will be asked to leave immediately.
 
When inside the salon, we ask that you turn your cell phones to vibrate/silent. The use of speaker-phone is prohibited, as we wish to provide a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere for all guests.
