What to Expect as a new guest

What to book

From the moment you walk through our doors (or meet with us virtually), you can expect to be heard, cared for, and supported like never before.

At Haus of Pretty, we’re more than your salon, we’re your personal beauty team.

Every session begins with a thorough consultation to understand your goals, preferences and hair history so we can craft a custom plan that puts the health of your hair first.

Our signature techniques are designed to preserve the integrity of your hair during processing, using only the highest quality products and proven methods that promote stronger, healthier hair with each visit.

Achieving your dream color may and usually takes more than one session.

Typically, corrective color work is needed, and we’ll guide you every step of the way. Most if not all clients that come see us have previous color work that needs adjusting. The road to your healthiest hair takes patience and commitment to regular maintenance sessions and following home care instructions.

You’re welcome to book a virtual consultation in advance, or you can schedule time in person to walk through your vision.

We kindly ask new guests to bring 1–2 inspiration photos (No Ai images, please) and complete our detailed intake form in the studio before your appointment so we can make sure you're comfortable and confident throughout your session.

As a first time color client, you should book the New Client Color Session. If you are booking a cut or other styling service, book that directly with the stylist of your choice.

All of our stylists on staff have more than 5 years experience, and have gone through apprenticeship training with Kelsey.
