About

Curly Designs centers on curly and textured hair, and the salon describes itself as a place where all hair types are valued. Owner stylist Macalia leads the work. The salon is open Monday afternoons, Tuesday through Friday with Tuesday and Friday evenings until 8pm, and closed Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.

New clients usually begin with a 45-minute curly consult for $25. It covers hair history and goals, current product use and recommendations, a styling plan, and take-home product samples, and a product review follows at the next appointment. Consultations are also required before new client transformation packages unless the stylist approves otherwise.

Every appointment requires a deposit. Most deposits are $25 or $50 and go toward the service price, and they are non-refundable. Clients have a 15-minute grace period unless told otherwise when booking. Arrivals 15 or more minutes late may be rebooked, or the price may be reduced to the time received. A no-call, no-show gives the guest 48 hours to get in touch; the deposit is not applied to future services, and two no-call, no-shows lead to being blocked from booking.

Each new client starts with a consultation to learn the hair history and set a plan before any decisions are made, and products are explained along with their purpose.
