Visits begin online, where booking is open at any hour and no phone call is needed. Guests choose a service, then a stylist and pricing level, then an available time. Appointments take place in private rooms rather than on an open floor. Each guest receives a personal consultation, recommendations based on their goals and lifestyle, and guidance on keeping the look up at home. Parking is complimentary for salon guests.
Hair services include dimensional color such as traditional highlights and balayage, precision cuts, blowouts and styling, keratin treatments, and everyday maintenance. Extensions can add length, thickness or volume, and the extension specialists are certified in k-tip, hand-tied and tape-in methods, according to the salon. Brow services begin with mapping and measuring before shaping.
Beyond hair, the salon offers makeup applications, lash services, body waxing, skin care and airbrush spray tans, which are applied by hand using solutions chosen for each client's skin tone. Dermaplaning is one of the salon's most popular services. Hair and makeup classes, including personal shopping sessions, take place in a private suite at the Paoli salon and are shaped around each client's needs.
For weddings, the bridal team provides both hair and makeup so a couple works with one vendor, and the team will also work alongside other beauty vendors. Bookings start with an inquiry, followed by questions by email or phone, an electronic contract and an in-person consultation. A signed contract and a non-refundable $500 retainer hold a date, and most brides book about a year ahead, with some booking up to two years out. The business also offers Signature Timeline Coordination, which builds the morning schedule around the photographer's timing and works with the couple's other vendors. Travel is complimentary within 25 miles of Paoli, with a per-mile fee per artist beyond that. The team also works with clients from outside the Philadelphia area and abroad, planning by email.
The bridal team customizes each look around the bride's preferences, dislikes and lifestyle rather than a trend, aiming for elevated natural beauty that still looks like the client. According to the business, team members are chosen for talent, style and personality.
Appointments take place in private rooms rather than on an open floor.
