The Ultimate Hair Appointment Prep Guide: Because Great Hair Starts Before You Sit Down

Got a hair appointment coming up at Hush Salon and Spa? Yay—we're so excited for you! Whether you're visiting us for a fresh cut, a bold new colour, a curly shape-up, or a total transformation, showing up a little prepared can really make a difference. Think of it as setting the stage for your best hair day ever.

Here’s your friendly little guide to making the most of your salon visit at one of the most trusted hair destinations in Guelph.

✂️ Haircuts: The Basics

• Come with Clean Hair: Try to arrive with clean, dry hair—washed either the night before or the morning of your appointment at Hush Salon and Spa. This helps your stylist see how your hair naturally falls, making shaping and cutting more accurate. Greasy or product-heavy hair can make the process trickier.
• Bring Inspiration Photos: Got a Pinterest board full of dreamy haircut inspo? Show us! Whether you're visiting our team in Guelph for a classic bob or a
  trendy wolf cut, a few photos help your stylist at Hush get your vibe just right.
• Be Honest About Your Routine: If you’re a wash-and-go person or only style your hair on weekends, let us know. We’ll design a look that fits your lifestyle.
• Wear Your Go-To Look: Style your hair how you normally wear it. Whether that’s naturally air-dried or curled with love, your stylist at Hush Salon and Spa will appreciate seeing your day-to-day style.

💁♀️ Curly Haircuts: Embrace Your Texture

• Come As You Are: At Hush Salon and Spa, we love curls. Show up with your curls styled as you normally wear them—ideally dry and lightlystyled so we can see your true texture.
• Tangles, Be Gone: Gently detangle before your visit. This helps your stylist focus on shaping your curls instead of fighting knots.
• Talk Texture Goals: More volume? Less bulk? Super defined shape? Tell us everything. Our curly hair specialists in Guelph are here to make your curls feel amazing.
• Expect a Dry Cut: Many curly cuts (especially the Deva-inspired or curl-by-curl methods) are done dry. Trust us—it works magic.

Let’s start your curl journey! Check out some of our experts at Hush!

🌈 Vivid Colours & Transformations: Get Ready for a Bold Change

• Block Off Time: Big changes need space. Vivid colour and full transformations can take several hours—especially for lightening. Keep yourday open, and bring your charger or a good book. It’s your self-care moment at Hush Salon and Spa.
• Pack Snacks & Hydrate: Yes, seriously. We’ll have tea and coffee, but bringing your fave snacks is always a good idea during long services.
• Be Patient With the Process: Dream transformations (especially involving bleach or vivid colour layering) may take multiple sessions. But don’t worry—we’ll guide you every step of the way using pro-level techniques trusted by our clients in Guelph.
