  • Do you offer walk-ins or same-day appointments?
    Due to demand and the way we structure our appointments, we are unable to accomodate walk-in appointments and are rarely able to offer same-day appointments. If you are looking for a last-minute opening, we recommend following us on Instagram where we post all of our last-minute openings for each stylist on a regular basis!
  • I need to cancel/reschedule my appointment! How do I do so?
    We ask that you give us 48 hours notice for any and all cancellations. We understand that emergencies do happen, but out of respect for your stylist please give us the time to fill your appointment. ​ You may cancel your appointment through any of the following methods: - Text or call us at 919-884-5740 (don’t forget to leave a message if you get our voicemail!) - Online through our Vagaro booking link - By emailing us at info@pricklypearsalon.com
  • What are your pricing policies? Why is there an Environmental fee?
    Pricing varies among stylists and color sessions, as our pricing is based on expertise, time, and product used. Our Environmental Fee ($1 for cut services / $2 for color services) allows us to be a sustainable salon through SalonCycle. The Environmental Fee helps to offset the cost of recycling materials such as hair clippings, foils, excess color, and snack wrappers that our local recycling center cannot accept.
