New here? Start with this.
A first appointment with a new stylist takes a bit of trust. Here is exactly how it works, from the first message to walking out the door.
From first message to first appointment
Send a message
Message Cassie on Instagram or by text with what you are after, a photo of your hair as it is today and a photo or two of what you like.
Get your plan and quote
She replies with what it will take to get there, how long to allow and what it will cost, so there are no surprises in the chair.
Pick a time
Choose from her open appointments. You will get the suite details and anything you need to do to prepare.
Come in and relax
Appointments are one-on-one in a private suite. It is just you and Cassie, start to finish.
Before you come in
Be honest about your hair history. Box dye, a keratin treatment two years ago, a color that went wrong: none of it is a problem, but all of it changes how your hair responds to lightener, so it is worth mentioning.
Bring photos of what you like, and photos of what you do not. The second kind is often more useful.
Blonding and extension appointments can be long. Eat first, bring a charger and get comfortable.
Policies
Cassie shares her booking, deposit and cancellation policies when you book, so you know where you stand before your appointment is confirmed.
If you need to move an appointment, let her know as early as you can. It gives someone on the waitlist a chance at the time.
Common questions
How do I book an appointment?
Message Cassie on Instagram or send a text. Tell her what you are looking for and include a photo of your hair now, and she will reply with a quote and available times.
Do I need a consultation before my first appointment?
For blonding, color changes and extensions, yes. It can usually be done over messages with photos, so you do not need to make a separate trip.
What should I send when I message?
A clear photo of your hair in natural light, one or two photos of what you like, and a quick note about any color, box dye or treatments from the last few years.
Where is the studio?
Cassie works from a private suite inside Salons by JC at 200 Central Ave in downtown Sarasota. Your appointment is one-on-one.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cassie will share her current booking and cancellation policies when you book. If something comes up, let her know as early as you can so the time can go to someone else.
