What we assess about your hair
In a focused visit your stylist examines hair condition and asks about recent treatments, daily routine and maintenance priorities. Expect a practical inspection of texture, length, visible damage and styling habits so the stylist can identify immediate needs. This is an assessment, not a full service, designed to surface the most important factors shaping your next appointment.
Because the consultation is brief, we prioritize information that changes recommendations: breakage patterns, styling time, and long-term goals. The stylist will record constraints such as commute schedules and product preferences to shape realistic options, then suggest services or follow-up appointments that address the highest-impact issues first.
Mapping your styling goals
You’ll talk through the look you want and the trade-offs involved—lower-maintenance cuts vs. frequent color refreshes, or dramatic change vs. gradual updates. In Fort Greene and nearby neighborhoods many clients juggle transit commutes to Manhattan, so stylist recommendations factor in upkeep and realistic at-home care that fits your lifestyle.
From that conversation the stylist creates a personalized plan that lists recommended services, suggested timing and maintenance steps. The plan highlights priorities and sequencing rather than promising a single immediate outcome, so you can weigh time, budget and seasonality before booking the next service.
Timing, price, and seasonality
The Hair Consultation is priced at $45 and takes 15 MINUTES, a compact slot intended for decision-making and planning. Expect a concise, targeted meeting that yields tailored guidance and a recommended next step. If you have limited time before or after commuting through Atlantic Avenue–Barclays Center, the consultation is designed to be efficient.
We see increased demand in January, April and September—people schedule New Year refreshes, spring updates and post-summer recovery. Local events at Fort Greene Park and BAM can also increase walk-ins, so booking ahead is advised in those months and for evening or weekend appointments that suit busy professionals and parents.
