To our Amazing Guests…We want to sincerely thank you for your patience during this challenging situation. The health, safety & well-being of our guests, staff and their families are most important to us. We have been working hard preparing for our reopening.
We understand that you are all eager to be rescheduled. We have had to cancel many appointments over the past 10 weeks. We will personally call each guest whose appointment was cancelled beginning March 23rd-May 30th. To be fair to all, calls will be in order of original appointments. Any new clients or referrals, will be added to our wait list and scheduled after we have accommodated our current clients. Again, we appreciate your patience as we navigate through this new challenge.
