Deposits and cancellation policies.

Chalk Hair Salon understands that sometimes schedules change and therefore requests 48 hours notice when cancelling or rescheduling your appointment. A credit/debit card deposit is required to hold your appointment for all bookings. Appointments cancelled with 48 hours or more notice will receive a full refund or can also be rescheduled, moving the deposit paid to the new date and time. Appointments cancelled within 24 hours will incur a charge of 50%. “A No Show” will be charged 100% of the service amount.

We do understand that accidents and emergencies happen that prevent 24 hour notice for cancelling or rescheduling your appointment. Please in this case contact us directly to speak to us.

A valid allergy alert test is required before any colour service. Please book this in at least 48 hours prior to your appointment. These need to be carried out every 6 months unless you are changing hair shade.

We also offer colourstart. Colourstart is a one-time only patch test you do at home, at your leisure, then share the results with us. This means no trips to the salon for a blob behind your ear every 6 months! Want to know more? Read our blog about colourstart here
