What should I prepare for my virtual Consultation?

Before your consultation, gather recent photos (natural light, unstyled), a list of past color services and products, and examples of desired looks. Jot down questions and concerns so we can address them efficiently and create an accurate plan during the session.

How long does a Virtual Consultation typically last?

Most virtual consultations run 15–30 minutes depending on complexity. Simple color refreshes are shorter; corrective plans or multi-step blonding strategies may require more time. If additional follow-up is needed, we’ll schedule supplemental sessions or an in-salon appointment.

Will I receive a color plan and cost estimate?

Yes. After assessing your photos and goals, we provide a personalized color roadmap and a ballpark estimate of sessions and costs. Final pricing may vary after an in-salon evaluation, but the consultation sets clear expectations and next steps.

Can virtual Consultations fix past color mistakes remotely?

Virtual consultations can diagnose past color issues and outline corrective strategies, but corrections often require in-salon services. We’ll explain realistic results, necessary steps, and timelines so you understand what to expect before booking the corrective appointment.

Is there a fee for Virtual Consultation sessions?

Consultation fees vary by service and complexity. Fees are disclosed at booking and may be credited toward your first service if you book within a specified timeframe. We also outline cancellation and rescheduling policies when you reserve your appointment.

How do I book a Virtual Consultation appointment?

Book online through our appointment page or contact the salon directly. Choose Virtual Consultation, select a time, and upload photos and hair history if requested. We’ll confirm details and send a video link before your scheduled session.

Raul is a genius, a whiz with color, shape, cut and overall gorgeousness! My kids have curly hair, and I don’t trust anyone else to maintain their coiffs!...more

Raul really goes the extra mile to not only give you an amazing haircut but make sure that you understand your hair and how to maintain the beautiful styling at home. As someone with curly hair, it’s been hard to find a cut that maintains my curls looking weightless and crisp and tail did an excellent job. With a background in high fashion styling hair in NYC fashion week etc, we are lucky to have someone of Raul’s caliber in the neighborhood- get in for a beautiful cut before there starts to be a months long wait!...more

I received a consultation with Raul today and I genuinely couldn't be happier with my experience. Even after just a few minutes of chatting with him, I already knew that this was someone who cares about his client's vision. I felt heard and understood when I showed him pictures of the haircut and how I was feeling, and he gave me his honest feedback, thoughts, and recommendations. So glad to have found Raul in SF after being unable to find a stylist here in Chicago who made me feel comfortable with him from the get-go and also has the mastery and experience to work with me in bringing to life the vibe I'm going for....more

From the start Raul was very attentive and valued his work - he made sure I was clear on our goal for color and via a consultation and recommendation he was able to bring to life the outcome. I truly appreciated the conversation but also his professionalism. If you’re looking for a high quality stylist and care please give him a visit

I came on 6 August started at 2pm and finished around 645pm...more
