Frequently Asked Questions and Policies
I Don't Need a "Full Deva Cut". Can I Book a Trim Only?
The same personalized technique is used when cutting any amount off of your hair.
Do You Offer Any Styles Other Than a "Wash and Go"?
No, our stylist do not perform any twist-outs, protective styles, blowouts, or flat ironing following a Kurl Cut.
We prefer to see the natural shape of the hair to ensure that we cut and shaped your curls appropiately. If we were to manipulate your curl pattern in the salon and then cut it, we would risk cutting too much hair off.
Are Curly Cuts Transferable to Straight Hair Styles?
Because the Kurly Cut is a dry cut for your natural curl pattern, we do not guarantee that your hair will translate into a straight hairstyle. For the most part, your cut will run incredibly close. Please do not forget, you have different curl patterns all over your head that will read completely differently when it is in an altered state.
Can You Repair Damaged Hair?
Unfortuantely, depending on the extent of the damage, sometimes the only way to deal with damaged hair is to cut it off. However, we will come up with a plan Hair Cut Plan to gradually cut your damaged ends off at a pace that you are comfortable with while allowing us to see and manage the progress that your hair is making.
What Curl Patterns Do You Work With?
We work with all curl types!
Is There Parking?
There are plenty of street parking options:
