HAIR BY RISSA

Hair by Rissa is based at 1753 N Higley Rd in Gilbert, Arizona, and centers on color. The business describes its work as effortless, elevated and custom. Appointments are offered Tuesday and Wednesday from 10am to 7pm, every other Thursday from 10am to 6pm, and Friday and every other Saturday from 9am to 5pm.

The color menu runs from a full custom color for brunettes, brunette-blondes and blondes who want dimension added (4 to 5 hours, from $350) to a midi custom color of partial or half-head highlights or lowlights that keeps custom color looking current (3 to 4 hours, from $300). A mini custom color places foils around the face and hairline to brighten (2 to 2.5 hours, from $200). For shorter visits, a gloss refresh works on the ends or reduces brassiness (1 to 1.5 hours, from $135). The Base is a single color applied to the roots to cover gray (2 to 2.5 hours, from $165), and the Base Plus is one solid color all over (2 to 2.5 hours, from $215). All prices are starting prices and subject to change. Each service includes a haircut and blowout.

New clients submit an appointment request and receive confirmation within 24 to 48 hours. Clients who are unsure where to start can fill out a mini consultation form before booking. The studio asks for at least 48 hours notice to cancel; a cancellation with less notice is charged 50% of the service fee, and a no-show is charged the full fee, both to the card on file. A 15-minute grace period applies, and late arrivals may have their service shortened or be asked to reschedule. Services are non-refundable, but a complimentary adjustment appointment is offered if a client is unhappy, provided the issue is reported within 72 hours of the service. Major credit cards, Venmo, Zelle and cash are accepted, and Buy Now, Pay Later is available through the booking platform for bookings from $50 to $4,000, subject to approval before the appointment.

The business describes its work as effortless, elevated and custom, and calls its products and techniques premium.
