Appointments
All services are by appointment only.
Same-day and after-hours appointments are available with an additional fee.
Travel services must be approved prior to booking to ensure availability.
New & Transfer Clients
All new or transfer clients must complete a consultation formbefore booking.
An in-person consultation is still required, even if the form has been submitted.
Same-day consultations may be available if time allows, but must be scheduled in advance.
This process helps us understand your hair history, goals, and any special care needs.

Most forms of tipping are accepted (cash or app-based).
No current discounts are offered for students or seniors.
Deposit & High-Demand Policy
Depoists are rquired for all appointments and are non-refundable
During peak times, first-time clients may see a 10% price increase on services.
High-demand days vary—please contact ahead for confirmation.
⸻
Cancellations, No-Shows & Overlapping Appointments
Timeliness
15-minute grace period is given for late arrivals. Traffic can be a bit intense due to the downtown location, so this grace period works both ways.
After 15 minutes, your appointment is marked as a no-show, and a fee will apply. See policy about stylist cancellations for more information.
Same-day rescheduling is treated as a late cancellation.
Failure to pay late/no-show fees may result in being blocked from booking.
No-Call / No-Show Policy
One no-call/no-show will result in being blocked from future bookings.
Communication is appreciated and helps maintain a respectful schedule.
Overlapping Appointments
Sometimes, services run over due to unexpected client needs. Your patience is appreciated.
You may: Be rescheduled later the same day or the next day, depending on availability, or asked to wait up to 15 minutes inside the building but outside the suite.
To maintain flow and space, you may also be asked to step aside so the next client can begin.
This is due to limited space, and late cancellations due to overlaps will still incur a fee.
Stylist Cancellations
At Nice Locs, we deeply respect your time and are committed to maintaining reliable scheduling. However, in the rare event that the stylist must cancel an appointment:
Cancellations only occur due to medical or personal emergencies.
In such cases, the appointment will be rescheduled to a later date based on mutual availability.
If the client chooses not to reschedule and cancels the service altogether, a cancellation fee will apply to account for the reserved time.
We appreciate your understanding when life happens. These policies ensure fairness for both client and stylist in every situation.
