A Smidge More Info for Helpfulness

Photo & Video Authorization

I often take photos & videos of my guests. I share them on my social media platforms & website to grow my business. I will not sell your photos or videos. You are not a model & there is no compensation for these photos and/or videos. At the time of taking your photos, you can request to see the photos & I will delete any photos you do not like. You can opt in to both photos & videos, just photos, just videos, or none at all. If you opt in to having your photo and/or video taken, please check either the "Do Show my face" box or the "DO NOT show my face" box. It is my goal to grow my portfolio of my work to grow my business while respecting my guests.

Color & Chemical Services

It is very important that you inform Kari if your scalp burns, itches, or you experience any kind of scalp discomfort. . It is also vital to inform me if you have EVER had any type of reaction to a color or chemical service rather it was done in a salon or at home. Even if you had a reaction 10+ years ago, it is vital that I am aware of this. Genetics, medications, hormones, & your overall life style & health play a role in your hair & results of chemical services. Previous chemical services done at a salon or at home: Coloring your hair- lighter or darker, color remover, lightner, bleach, semi color, demi color, smoothing treatments, perms, & relaxers present their own risk.

Even if the color is faded or you colored over it, it is still present in your hair until it is cut off. 

Well water, hard water, pool water, copper pipes: Minerals build up in your hair & can cause a reaction with color services. These reactions are unpredictable & can happen after multiple times of using the same product.

Product Buildup: Product buildup can prevent color from fully depositing in your hair.  It can also prevent lightener from lifting your color properly

For best color results, select "Pre-Color Detox" under the"Add Ons for Color/Blonding Packages" drop down menu when booking an appt. This Detox Treatment removes buildup for better color & lightening results. 

Other Variables: There are other unpredictable risks not mentioned above that may occur during your chemical service. 

Adjustments, Re-dos, Service Satisfaction, & Product Return

I will strive to give you the best service & results that I can.
