FAQ
Do we take walk-ins?
Yes, although we are appointment based, but sometimes we have availability the same day! We do recommend giving us a call prior to coming in!
Why can't I find salon hours?
We operate without fixed working hours, opting for flexibility to accommodate varying levels of activity throughout the year. This approach is particularly advantageous for our appointment-based system, allowing us to adapt to busier and slower periods. Our stylists each follow unique schedules that suit their preferences, providing a wide range of options for booking on different days and times. For detailed information on appointment availability, please refer to our online booking system, as weekly schedules may vary slightly.
Why can't I get exact pricing?
Our stylists have varying prices based on experience and education, making it challenging to quote over the phone. Use our online booking to see starting prices, which may be adjusted for factors like color or time. For budget-conscious clients, book a free consultation to discuss estimated costs and service details. Explore our stylists page to find the right fit for you.
How do I secure a reservation?
The quickest way to book if you're a returning client is through our Vagaro booking system that is available 24/7! You can also request information from our booking page on our website, by emailing artofalchemyinc@gmail.com or by texting or calling us at 778-598-4247.
Just For Laughs
About Us:
At Art of Alchemy, we're not just a salon; we're a community of enthusiasts with a passion for making people look and feel fabulous. Owned by Cyprys, who dared to venture into the world of entrepreneurship at the ripe age of 19. Because why wait for a midlife crisis when you can have it early, right?
Fast forward to the peak of the pandemic, where Cyprys thought, "Why not open a salon now?" We like to do things differently. Needless to say, Art of Alchemy was born, proving that even during a global crisis, good hair is non-negotiable.
