Salon policy and procedures
Booking & cancellation policy
We want to ensure we can provide the best service we can, in order for us to secure your appointment we do require a 50% booking fee for all bookings.
This fee is non refundable but is transferable as long as you amend your appointment before the cancellation period. When booking with us over the phone your card details will be captured in a secure payment system, these card can not be accessed by staff but will be used if you would prefer an easier checkout or if you cancel within the cancellation policy below. You can find out more about how card details are stored here.
We do understand that sometimes life can get in the way, to protect jobs at the salon we hold a 48 hour cancellation policy, this applies to cancellations, appointment reschedules, cancelled appointments due to not attending a patch test and no shows.
If you cancel 48 hours prior you will be lose your booking fee and be charged the remaining 50% off your appointment.
If you reschedule your appointments more than 3 times within 3 days of your appointment Malvern serenity will reserve the right to not allow advance booking.
