SAY HELLO TO OUR SALON MEMBERSHIP PLAN
Our Salon Membership Plan makes budgeting for your hair appointments a breeze!
By signing up for a Salon Membership Plan, your year’s worth of appointments are booked in and paid via regular instalments, instead of paying upfront and on the day—much like a gym membership. This makes managing costs a breeze, means you won't miss an appointment and helps you commit to your hair routine.
