Way of working

One person handles your appointment

Whoever advises, cuts and colours you at your first visit also does so the next time — so your hair history stays in one place and doesn't need to be retold every time.

Team alignment

Before a bigger colour change, a second person takes a look — especially with balayage and pre-coloured hair. Two pairs of eyes on the base colour and hair structure lead to a more considered decision. If someone is on holiday or ill, a colleague takes over using your notes from previous appointments, so the formula and cutting line are continued.

Ongoing training in the craft

Cutting technique, colour application and haircare knowledge remain a constant topic in the salon: we practise on mannequin heads and on models, attend seminars run by our product partners, and pass on what we've learned to the whole team in short sessions. New techniques only reach guests once the team is confident with them — not the day after the seminar.

Approach

Craftsmanship comes from repetition

Hitting the same cutting line cleanly on the third visit is harder than inventing it. That's why we note down formulas, cutting sequences and your preferences — and regularly practise the techniques behind them as a team.

  • A consultation at the start of every appointment, even for regular clients — hair changes
  • Your dedicated contact person on request for every booking, with cover only by arrangement
  • Colour formula, cutting notes and care instructions are recorded and used again next time
  • An assessment of how much care a shape needs at home, before we start
  • An honest no if a request would push your hair structure too far, with an alternative offered
  • Care recommendation at the end — without sales pressure, verbally only if preferred

Appointment request

How to book with your preferred stylist

When making your request, tell us what you need and, if you've been to us before, the name of your contact person — then we can plan the right amount of time from the start.

  1. 1

    Tell us what you need

    Cut, root colour, balayage or bridal styling — by phone on +49 40 66969105 or by email to hallo@salon-scherenwerk.invalid. Each service needs a different amount of time at the chair.

  2. 2

    Choose your contact person

    Tell us who you saw last time, or let us match you by area of expertise. For your first visit, we'll recommend the person best suited to your needs.

  3. 3

    Arrange a time

    We'll suggest appointments within our opening hours — Tuesday and Wednesday 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, Thursday and Friday 10:00 am to 8:00 pm, Saturday 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.

  4. 4

    Receive confirmation

    You'll receive written or verbal confirmation of the service, duration and time. For colour appointments, we'll let you know about a possible prior patch test.

  • Name your preferred stylist: Tuesday and Wednesday are the quietest days, Thursday and Friday after 5:00 pm are the busiest.
  • Colour appointments take longer than cuts – for balayage we allow three to four hours, so please get in touch early.
  • Bring photos of the look you want to your first appointment and please tell us which colour or tint has been in your hair over the past twelve months.
  • If you're unsure, book a short consultation beforehand, then we'll work out the technique and time needed together.
