Vibe & Co. Salon

Vibe & Co. Salon operates as a collective of independent stylists at Honeygo Boulevard in Nottingham, Maryland. The salon describes the space as welcoming and elevated, somewhere to relax. It calls its stylists Vibe Babes and describes them as talented and well educated, a claim the salon makes about itself.

There is no front desk or receptionist. Each stylist manages their own calendar, bookings and prices, so clients contact the stylist they want directly, either through that stylist's booking link or on Instagram. Hours are handled by appointment.

New clients begin with a virtual consultation by direct message on the chosen stylist's Instagram. To prepare, clients send their full name, phone number, email, photos of their current hair and inspiration photos, a short history of past hair color, and when they are generally available.

Booking terms are set out clearly. Cancellations should be reported to the stylist at least 48 hours before the appointment to avoid a cancellation fee. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may mean the appointment is changed or rescheduled. Clients who are unhappy with their results should contact their stylist within 72 hours.

Gift cards are available as eGift cards, bought through the chosen stylist's website and delivered by email within 10 to 15 minutes.

Stylists work independently, each handling their own schedule, bookings and pricing, with new clients starting from a virtual consultation.
