Your Hair Questions Answered
My hair is staticy and frizzy - how do I get smooth hair?
Combat frizz with the right treatment and products tailored to your hair type. We will find you the right in-salon hair treatment, haircut and quality hair products that will help you combat Grande Prairie’s dry climate… even on tuque days!
At The Headroom we diagnose every head of hair individually, and recommend a hair care plan diagnosed by your specific needs. Come in for a blowout and education session, and leave with smooth, manageable hair that you can maintain at home.
HOT TIP: The frizzy hair solution is not always a moisture rich shampoo! Hair strands need protein for the moisture to adhere to; we often give attention to hair integrity before addressing moisture needs.
Do you have hair stylists that specialize in short hair?
Yes, our stylists specialize in various hair types, including short hair, curly hair, fashion colours, braids, lived in looks, low maintenance colours and more.
HOT TIP: Find your ideal hair stylist by calling the salon, booking a complimentary consultation, or completing this online questionnaire today.
I LOVE my haircut! How can I share the news to support my stylist?!
Yay! Our goal, always, is to find your perfect stylist match so you can support them by returning, referring your friends, purchasing your hair care products from them, and getting the most out of your hair appointments! Your stylist would absolutely LOVE a Google or Yelp review to boost their exposure. Thank you for asking!
If you are about to hit post on a less than 5-star review drop us a line first. We would love to adjust your hair for you, and build our relationship back up!
Why does my hair always look so much better when I’m at the salon?
We use only professional hair care products and tools on you when you’re at the salon. We have a limitless supply of the tools we need to do amazing work, and would love to educate you so you have the knowledge to do the same at home!
Our list of must have hair care products includes:
- Professional Shampoo + Conditioner
- Treatments based on your needs: Protein / Moisture / Leave In Conditioner
- Heat Protection
- Professional Hair Tools
- Quality Hair Care Products [silk pillowcases/bonnets, soft scrunchies, heatless curlers etc)
Book an education session with your stylist (Blowout + Treatment) and they will ensure you are set up for success… even if you live in Fort Nelson and are only here twice a year!
What haircut is best for me?
This question gets asked all the time, and is so subjective. The best way to answer it is to look back at photos of you to see what you liked the most, account for your lifestyle [aka do you need to wear your hair up to go for your daily run], and review your technical ability and time [aka if you have 5 minutes to get ready in the morning, and can’t use a curling iron or round brush, curtain bangs may not be the best choice].
To get the best possible haircut for your face shape, skills and lifestyle, we recommend booking in for a FREE consultation with your preferred stylist. They will go through your inspiration photos, your ideas and your concerns, and you’ll leave knowing you’re in great hands for your haircut!
How do I tell my hairdresser I want to try something different?
We get it. You’ve had bangs forever, you keep thinking of growing them out, then they bug you and you come in for your regular trim and before long it’s been a year and you still have bangs! Whether you’re thinking of growing your hair out, testing out a transformation pixie cut, colouring your hair for the first time, or simply wanting to part your hair differently, we are your biggest supporters in change!
When you’re booking your appointment online there is a spot to add notes for your stylist. If you’re calling or texting us, or DM’ing your stylist on their social media, share your thoughts! Send inspo pics, talk about your goals, or simply tell them you’re thinking of something new. We will book extra time to chat, and make sure you know all the ins and outs before you commit.
How can I spend less money on my hair appointments, but still love my hair?
To risk oversimplifying this: tell your stylist. If you want hair care on a budget, tell us. We will recommend a service schedule to suit your needs [eg a tone with an apprentice between blondings to extend your colour, or ‘micro-trims’ between haircuts to avoid split ends while maintaining your length]. We will suggest specific products to help you achieve your goals at home. We may suggest a lower level hair stylist that specializes in your hair style to decrease the service price. We may suggest focusing on your part instead of highlighting your whole head.
Bottom line: there are ALWAYS ways we can adjust your appointment to keep luxury in your budget!
I HATE my haircut - what do I do?!
We want you to love your look! If you are new to the salon we ask you to call us right away, because your hairdresser wants you to be happy, and would love to have the opportunity to make things right.
Sometimes it’s just not the right fit [style, personality, expertise, etc] and again, we want to help you!
Contact us and a manager will respond within 24 hours to hear you, provide some solutions, and strive to understand what will work best for you. At The Headroom we guarantee our services, and will always work with you to find your forever stylist! With over 30 stylists in our company, there is sure to be a fit for you!
Our clients at The Headroom can expect us to thank you for telling us about your experience by:
- Confirming your wants, needs, and inspirations to explore your options.
- Scheduling an adjustment with your current stylist, a mentor, or a master stylist, depending on what’s needed. We strive to keep you with the same level stylist, but our teaching salon always has mentors available for support. If a higher-level stylist is requested, we’ll discuss any fees and options before booking.
- Following up after your adjustment to ensure you’re satisfied and ready for your next visit.
