Policies

Service Guarantee

We use the absolute best products in the industry when providing services to our guests and are confident in the life and longevity of the service. However, we always recommend our guests continue to use professional products at home. Doing so will help ensure the longevity of your highlights, color and/or other services performed.

All hair design, color and texture services are guaranteed within one week of service. When used with recommended, accompanying products purchased at Z Studio, all hair services may be guaranteed for an additional period. Z Studio Artists will always discuss available products with each guest during their visit.

If, for any reason, a guest is unhappy with a service provided, we ask to be notified immediately. We rarely receive complaints on services, but if we do, we will make every effort to correct the issue to the satisfaction of our guest.

After services are performed, we strongly recommend that guests pre-book their next appointment. Doing so will ensure that you see the same Artist at your return visit, ensuring continuity of service. In between visits, we provide bang trims and neck clean-ups at no additional charge. No appointment is necessary, though you may experience a short wait as a walk-in.

Appointment Confirmations

As a courtesy to all of our guests, we offer e-mail and text message appointment confirmations. We may also contact guests by phone up to 24 hours prior to the scheduled appointment time for confirmation; however, we do encourage guests to provide a cell number and/or e-mail address at the time of appointment reservation for participation in our confirmation system.

Squeeze-Ins

We do have a daily “squeeze in” list. Similar to standby status on an airline, our “squeeze-in” list allows guests to wait for a same-day appointment in the event of a cancellation by another guest (when appointment space is otherwise unavailable or limited).

Cancellations

We understand that life happens and plans change. In consideration of other guests and of our stylists’ time, we kindly ask you to alert us at least 24-hours prior to your service. In many cases, our Artists are working from a waiting or “squeeze-in” list; proper cancellation allows us the opportunity to fill the empty appointment and ultimately makes the rescheduling process easier. Any cancellations made the day prior to your scheduled service will be charged at 50%, and same-day cancellations will be charged 100% of the service cost.

New guests to Z Studio may be asked to provide a credit card at the time of booking.

Late Arrivals

At Z Studio, we promise our guests on-time appointments, and we schedule appointments based on estimated time windows for each service provided. We believe in the value of every guest’s time and make every effort to keep all appointments running on time.

We appreciate when guests are able to notify us that they are running late, and we will make every effort to accommodate guests in those circumstances. Unfortunately, if guests are more than 15 minutes late, rescheduling may sometimes unavoidable (depending on the Artist’s schedule).

Missed Appointments

Guests who miss three appointments without prior cancellation may be unable to schedule future appointments and may be considered for service only as a walk-in guest, based on availability.

Credit Cards

We accept MasterCard, Visa and Discover. Unfortunately, we are unable to accept American Express at this time.

Gratuity

Our Artists gratefully accept gratuities. Industry average is 15 to 25 percent of service cost, but should be estimated by our guests based on his/her level of satisfaction with the Artist who performed services.

Returned Checks

In addition to the original amount of the check, a returned check will result in a $25.00 service charge. Guests with a return check on file must be paid in full prior to new services being provided.

Gift Cards

Gift cards are available for purchase and are non-refundable. Available gift card balances should not be applied as gratuity; balances are to be used for services or retail products. Some gift cards obtained by guests through a promotion, giveaway, non-profit organization or community effort may be designated as redeemable only for salon services and not for retail products.

Product Returns

Unopened retail products may be returned within 30 days. We do not provide refunds on retail products; if you’re unhappy with the results of a retail product purchased from Z Studio, we will gladly allow you to exchange (with accompanying receipt) and we will express your dissatisfaction directly with the manufacturer and/or distributor.

Attire

Guests are welcome in any attire, so please come as you are. We provide gowns and capes for your comfort.

Children

We welcome children at Z Studio. As a courtesy to other salon guests, we do ask that children be supervised at all times while in the salon. We do our best to create a professional and relaxed atmosphere and kindly ask that children be supervised and well behaved.
