Save yourself

It happens to everyone. You start to notice that it is maybe time to get your hair done....then BAM! One morning it just goes too far. Your cut is too grown out to function and your color has completely deflated. You want your hair done NOW. So you call...and there are no openings NOW. So what do you do?

Do you go to someone else? Do you walk in a random corner salon you have never been to? Do you color your hair yourself? Or do you actually tough it out until you can get in? How about none of the above.

You can save yourself all these potential disasters by simply re-booking at every appointment. It is so simple. When you are checking out just go ahead and make your next appointment right then and there. This is fabulous for so many reasons.

• Be re-booking in advance you are guaranteed a spot when you need it.
• A lot of people say they don't want to rebook because they don't know their schedule that far in advance. This is understandable, but it often works to schedule around your pre made hair appointment and if it gets close and you realize it really won't work, you can call and reschedule. You would have had to call anyways.
• How long should you go between appointments? The standard recommendation is 6-8 weeks. If you have a short, high maintenance cut or a color dramatically different than your natural, you might want to go fewer weeks. If you are lower maintenance you might be able to stretch it a bit further.
• Desperate times call for desperate measures, and the things people do to their own hair when desperate are often frightening. It is so much easier to be patient or pre-book than to have to go through a cut or color correction to fix what you did while desperate. So save yourself the pain.

It is a very easy concept that will potentially save you a lot of stress. And hey, it will give you something to look forward to.
