Bravata

Bravata describes itself as a lifestyle brand and collective of creators working across art, beauty, fashion and experiences. The business is green circle certified and describes itself as cruelty-free, vegan and holistic.

Its founder and owner, Paloma, leads the business, education and multimedia work. The business places ethical, sustainable and mindful practices ahead of profit, and it curates organic, non-toxic products that are sustainably and ethically made. Clients can also take education classes, demonstrations and hands-on sessions, and the business offers consulting, design work such as logo, web, interior and menu design, and business coaching in strategy, marketing and management.

Hair appointments are booked through the concierge by calling or texting, with replies taking 48 hours or more. A card on file is needed to reserve a spot, and some services require a deposit. Gratuity is not included in service prices, and 15 to 20 percent is customary. Appointments are confirmed by text three days ahead, but clients are responsible for remembering them. Arriving more than 15 minutes late without notice, or not arriving, may incur a charge equal to 100 percent of the booked services. Clients who cannot get a preferred time can join an artist's cancellation list. Changes and cancellations follow each artist's own policies. Purchases can be returned or exchanged within 7 days, except haircare tools and accessories such as brushes and clips.

Bar Bravata is open to visitors without an appointment and serves espresso drinks, cocktails, tea, house-made sodas, beer, wine, cider and champagne. Drinks can be ordered to go at the walk-up window. The bar is described as 100% organic, local and sustainable, which is the business's own claim. Children and well-behaved service animals are welcome, with parents or owners responsible for supervising them.

Focuses on ethical, sustainable and mindful business practices, with an emphasis on organic, non-toxic products. The business aims to help clients feel confident and builds lasting relationships through professionalism, dependability and customer experience.
