Preparing for Your Hair Appointment
What should I wear?
We don’t care too much about what you wear, there are just certain clothing options that can make it easier on you and your stylist. We don’t recommend wearing puffer vests or hoodies unless they can be removed without going over your head. The bulkiness can make it difficult to do your hair. If you get chilly easily, it’s a good idea to bring in an extra layer just in case you get cold. Once again, avoid layers that need to go over your head or that are bulky, and instead opt for something that is easy to take on and off.
What if I don't know what I want?
We don’t expect you to be the expert, that’s our job. During your consultation, your hair stylist will talk with you about your concerns, what you’ve liked and haven’t liked, your lifestyle, and more! Our goal is to help guide you to a hairstyle that fits YOU! Inspiration pictures can help us see what you like and don’t like as well!
Do I need to come with clean hair or dirty hair?
Don’t stress. This mainly applies to color appointments, and we don’t mean wash your hair immediately before coming to your appointment. Washing your hair 24-48 hours before your appointment is recommended. You’ll want to avoid heavy oils, dry shampoo, and lots of styling products to help the color or bleach do what it needs to.
Should I be chatty? Silent? In between?
he conversation level is up to you. You can be as chatty or as quiet as you would like! Our cosmetologists do have to check in at certain times to ensure you’re comfortable and get your thoughts and opinions about certain aspects of your hair, but other than that you can read, work, sit in silence, have a full conversation, ask them questions, calmly vent, whatever works! This can also change throughout the service, it’s okay!
What if I don't want my picture taken?
Taking pictures is how cosmetologists build their portfolio for potential clients. It also helps them see the progress and growth they’ve made throughout their careers. If you don’t feel comfortable with having your picture taken, just say so! We understand not everyone wants their lives broadcast on social media, and we’ll respect that. We should always be asking permission before taking photos anyways.
After Your Hair Appointment
When should I wash my hair?
We recommend waiting 48-72 hours before washing your hair after a chemical or color service. This allows the color to fully set, your hair’s cuticles to close, helping your results last longer. After a haircut, you can wash your hair whenever it feels necessary.
What if I need something adjusted?
Most salons have a guarantee for their services. Here at the beUtofullness Way by Tami’s Salon and Spa, we guarantee our work for one week. That means if you call in within one week, we will schedule you a fix at the cost of product. If you change your mind and want to go a whole different direction, this does not apply.
What do I need to know about maintenance?
It’s important to know how long your stylist recommends before you need to come back to help maintain your results. It’s a good idea as well to ask for product recommendations to ensure your results last as long as possible. We’ll work with you to find something in your price range. At our salon, we also offer 20% off of haircare whenever you come in for a service – it’s a great way to never pay full price for a product!
What aftercare do I need to know about?
For all hair appointments, you want to maintain good habits. These include:
• Using professional products that support your hair needs.
• Deep conditioning according to your hair needs.
• Rinsing with lukewarm-cool water in the shower.
• Be gentle when brushing your hair.
• Using Heat Protectant when using hot tools.
• Protect your hair from chlorine and the sun.
• Come in for maintenance trims.

Preparing for Your Nail or Pedicure Appointment
What should I wear?
When it comes to your nail appointment, you don’t need to stress too much about what you’re wearing. Opt for a top that doesn’t restrict your arm movement and sleeves that don’t cover your fingertips. Other than that, wear what you feel good in!
What if I don't know what I want?
Whether it’s the shape of your nail, the length, color, or design, or nail techs are here to help you find a design that will help you feel confident and work with your lifestyle! This all starts at the consultation. Let your nail tech know any concerns you have, and feel free to ask any questions!

Our lash techs will do a consultation before each appointment. For your first time, they’ll talk to you about your lifestyle, and if you’d like something more natural or more dramatic, full, or fluffy.
