At macleodbradley, we are proud to deliver expert-led, results-focused services tailored to each guest. To maintain the high standards we are known for, we have structured policies in place to protect both our guest experience and our teams time.
This policy outlines how we manage appointments, cancellations and deposits – with fairness and flexibility in mind.
All appointments are booked for the time you need and so we encourage you to arrive early, taking the time to relax and enjoy the experience.
If you do arrive late, we will do our best with the remaining time we have. However, because we do not want to keep anyone waiting we may have to shorten/change your appointment if your stylist has another client immediately after you.
We recommend pre-booking to secure the time, team member and service level that best suits your needs.
We understand that sometimes plans change. If you need to cancel or reschedule, we kindly ask for a minimum of 48 hrs notice. This helps us offer the time to another guest and protects the time of our team.
Email reminders are sent 48 and 24 hrs prior to every appointment sent, giving you an opportunity to confirm, reschedule or cancel with fair notice.
IF YOU CANCEL LESS THAN 48 HRS NOTICE:
Cancellation fees are calculated fairly based on the service booked. A full breakdown is available upon request.
For all services, we kindly ask for a 50% deposit at the point of booking.
This is due to services requiring time, advanced planning and product preparation. A deposit ensures that your appointment is secured and our team are fully prepared for your bespoke experience.
If you cancel with more than 48 hrs notice your deposit will be:
IF YOU CANCEL WITH LESS THAN 48 HRS NOTICE:
Following a consultation, we provide a full quote for your extension service.
Appointments require a deposit to confirm.
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
It is vital that all new Guests have skin tests before any hair colour, even if they have had colour previously. We cannot overstate the importance of skin testing for your well-being and safety.
The safety of all our Guests is paramount to us and that is why we adhere to manufacturer guidelines on skin safety testing, which means carrying out a patch test 48 hrs, or closest to, prior to your appointment.
Although it is rare, a reaction to hair colour can occur and, if severe, can be painful and distressing. At its most serious, an allergic reaction can result in hospitalisation.
Our hair colours are supplied by Original & Mineral with whom we work closely, and macleodbradley are among the first to get to work with their most up-to-date products. Even if your hair has been regularly coloured we will still only proceed with colouring your hair once we are satisfied that it is safe to do so. If it has been more than 6 months since your last colour appointment with us, for your ongoing protection, we will need to repeat the colour test.
We understand that the skin test may be inconvenient from a practical point of view, however, it is purely for our clients' safety.
We aim to make the process as practicable as possible for all concerned, and you can skin test across any of our salons.
Should you need to change or cancel an appointment, we would ask that you give us 48 hours notice. Any cancellations after this time will incur a 100% fee. If an appointment is missed without prior notification, a 100% no show fee will be incurred.
Charging by time rather than for 'off the peg' services means that we are free to create a completely individual service for every one of our guests. Our Stylists can choose the best products and treatments to suit you and you only pay for the time required rather than for lots of individual services. You will know the maximum cost before your appointment - there are no unexpected extras charges
Most of our Guests book their next one or two appointments when they leave the salon; this makes sure that you secure the time that is best for you. Dates can, of course, be changed if necessary.
Wednesday/Thursday/Friday evenings and Saturdays are the most popular times for appointments with our Stylists, so it is essential to book in advance for these particularly busy times to save any disappointment.
