About

Color by Cat is run from a salon in Schererville, in the Northwest Indiana area, and offers color, haircuts, makeup, bridal hair and makeup, makeup lessons and waxing. The menu runs from quick toner refreshes and root retouches through all-over color, custom highlights and vivid color transformations, with haircuts and everyday styling alongside.

Each package covers a detailed bridal trial, a timeline for the morning of the wedding, and written preparation instructions for the bridal party. Services can take place at the salon, at a location the bride chooses, or as a full buy-out of the salon on the wedding day. Travel to a location starts at $100 for the first 30 minutes measured from the Schererville salon, then adds $50 for each further 30 minutes. Brides who get ready at the salon pay no travel fee. Salon buy-outs require a deposit. Each additional stylist costs a $150 booking fee, paid as a deposit to hold the date. According to the salon, it can realistically handle one bride and up to 10 bridal party services in a single day.

Makeup lessons suit clients who want to learn their own routine. Everyday Glam 101 is a customized everyday makeup session with a one-on-one lesson, hands-on practice, tool guidance and a list of recommended products. The Ultimate Makeup Confidence Workshop goes further, with extra practice, a mini tool kit, a sample product kit and personalized notes.

The salon is open Tuesday from 10:00 am to 7:00 pm, Wednesday and Thursday from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm, Friday from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm and Saturday from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, and is closed Sunday and Monday.

The business focuses on color, bridal work and personalized makeup, with each appointment built around the client's goals.

The salon describes its space as cozy, welcoming and judgment-free.
