The Mane Hue Experience
so much more than gorgeous hair

Welcome! My name is Karmyn, and I am so excited for you to join me for a salon experience unlike any you have had before.
​
If you'd like to learn more about and why I've chosen to do things so differently, you can hear all about that here.
​
Otherwise, read on to find out about all the little things I do to ensure you have the best salon experience and the most incredible results.
Before We Begin...
VISIT CUSTOMIZATION Before every appointment you will get a chance to truly customize your visit. A text message conveniently allows you to choose your complimentary enhancements & have your favorite refreshments waiting for you when you walk into the door.
ONE-ON-ONE EXPERIENCE Your experience at Mane Hue Salon will always be one-on-one. There are no other stylists and no other clients during your scheduled time at Mane Hue Salon because it's only you and I in my micro space. You will always have my full attention, and every moment of your appointment is tailored to you. Located in a micro brick and motor space, you may experience the occasional passer by as the downtown patrons pass the beautiful, sun filled window, but otherwise you are completely at peace and undisturbed, making it a great environment to relax or work remotely.
ELEVATED SNACKS Whether you're in for a quick maintenance session, or a longer session, I've got you covered with a wide variety of options. Whether you're looking for something healthy or more indulgent, I've got a variety of complimentary sweet and savoury snacks and beverages on hand at all times to keep you fueled and hydrated. And of course, be sure to always keep an eye out for special seasonal treats!
THE ESSENTIALS To ensure you're always covered, I have all the necessities available in the salon for you. Whether you need a workstation for your lap so you can stay on the job while being serviced, access to WIFI, an iPad with streaming services, a wireless charger for your phone, phone sanitizer, hand sanitizer and lotion, or simply a cold place to store a packed lunch (assuming you want more than the light snacks I have available), I've got you covered.
My Unique Process
LIFESTYLE CONSULTATION At your first appointment, I will start with a Beauty & Lifestyle Consultation based on the Digital Consultation Form you submitted when you booked. We'll discuss your hair history, struggles, and goals to narrow down the plan for the day, as well as ensure the maintenance commitment is in alignment with your lifestyle. This is where IK can build your one year hair journey guide with me. It is essential that your lifestyle is considered when designing a hair look and regimen so you can feel good about your hair 365 days a year, and not just when you're in the salon with me. At maintenance  appointments, we will have a more condensed, but thorough, Re-Connection Consultation to ensure you are still happy with your hair, uncover whether you are facing any new struggles, or are seeking change, to guarantee that your hair continues to align with your goals and lifestyle.
ONE YEAR HAIR JOURNEY GUIDE To piggyback on the Beauty Lifestyle Consultation, I start all my guest with a One Year Hair Journey Guide. In this one year hair journey guide you will find the process behind my work as well as a general maintenance plan for modern lighting sessions, hair extension sessions as well as at-home hair care investment to properly care & protect your investment for the next 365 days. When you sit in my chair, I want to ensure that I am setting us both up for success.
CREATING THE LOOK My process in the way I create a custom look for my guests may be a little different than what you are use to. I always start my looks with a signature dry haircut to lay the foundation for my color work. I believe you must build the house first before you paint it. I take this same method when creating a look with extensions. I will install hair extensions first and then add in the color and haircut ensuring that you get a custom, seamless blended look.
COMPLIMENTARY EDUCATION I have many resources to share with clients on how to properly care for your hair in-between appointments. I also like to share tips and tricks for my guest to have your hair looking its best and you can find those on my client-only Facebook page. (coming soon!)
The Little Details
SHAMPOO EXPERIENCE Your shampoo experience starts with a deep cleanse to of clarifying shampoo that contains Champagne and bentonite clay to effectively work deeper to remove everything that’s holding your hair back, revealing a healthy, balanced scalp and hair that shines with renewed vitality.  Head and scalp massage to invigorate the scalp and relief tension in the temples and ending the experience with a hot towel to further add relaxation while pushing your hair conditioner further into the cuticle layer for shine and hydration.
LUXURY UPGRADES Interested in making your visit extra special? There are a variety of upgrades you can add to any package to make your experience even better. ​ From various PRO treatments with an extended scalp massage, and even a Hair and Scalp Detox, there are a number of options to choose from. These are available at time of booking, but even if you decide to treat yourself last minute, most luxury upgrades can be added on spur of the moment.
BLOWDRY STYLING All services (except standalone Split End Dusting and/or Bang Trims) include a Signature Finish, which is a complimentary blow dry style, to finish out the appointment. Not only do I want to make sure you're leaving looking and feeling your absolute best, but finishing with a blow dry allows me to ensure the color looks as intended. It also gives me the opportunity to detail your haircut to perfection. You also have the option to upgrade the complimentary Signature Finish to a Platinum Finish, which is the complimentary blow dry style, plus the addition of hot tool styling (using a flat iron or curling iron).
