  2. For balayage, extensions or a major colour change, send reference images and ask how the salon would approach the transformation in stages.
  3. If you want a cut such as a wolf cut, curtain bangs or layered style, discuss how it will grow out and how much daily styling it requires.
  4. Check whether the salon accepts walk-ins or requires an appointment, especially if you need a spontaneous visit.
  5. For evening availability, confirm the current schedule directly; one central salon advertises late Thursday appointments, while other hours may vary.
  6. Before travelling, confirm the exact service, consultation requirements, address and appointment time through the salon’s current contact channel.
