Terms & Policies

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE BOOKING

Here are some guidelines to make sure that you and others enjoy the best possible experience when visiting The Berkshire Hair Hub.

In consideration for other guests we request that all phones, iPads and other electronic devices be kept silent.

All new guests must have an initial style consultation and allergy test at least 24 hours before they are able to book a colour service.

In order to maintain a calm and relaxing atmosphere, we respectfully ask that you arrive promptly for your appointment to avoid changes/shortening of your service.

LATE POLICY

We will always try our best to accommodate you if you’re running behind, stuck in traffic, etc. It happens, we know! However, your tardiness can affect the remainder of our teams’ day by delaying them for their clients who come in on time. For this reason, we have set a few general ground rules for such situations. Clients will generally be allowed a 10 minute grace period. After that time, we will call to check in on you. If you are able to make it in time for your entire service to be completed, great! If not, you may have to forgo parts of the service in order to keep it in the time allotted for you. Please, always call if you even think you might be late; we’d rather know as early as possible so we can do our best to fit you in without upsetting the flow of our day! Again, please remember that your appointments are reserved for you & only you. These policies allow us the opportunity to alert our standby clients of any openings, therefore allowing us to provide the best service possible. We very much appreciate your business and compliance with our policies.
