Booking Policy

Booking Process

All bookings must be made directly by messaging me at GloywTalwrn@outlook.com or WhatsApp/ Text on 07981176408. Please do not show up without prior confirmation, as this is a home-based studio.

Privacy & Confidentiality

All personal information shared during the booking process will be kept confidential and will only be used to confirm and manage your appointment.

No Walk-ins

As I work from a home-based studio, I do not accept walk-ins. Please ensure your appointment is confirmed through direct messaging.

Changes to Booking Policy

I reserve the right to update this policy. Any changes will be communicated in advance.

If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out via WhatsApp/Text 07981 176 408 or GloywTalwrn@outlook.com 

Appointment Policy

Your Appointment

Please arrive on time or up to 10 minutes early for your appointment. Arriving late may reduce your treatment time and affect your overall experience.

I completely understand that delays can happen due to unforeseen circumstances like traffic. If you're running late, please contact me as soon as possible. I’ll always do my best to accommodate you.

If you are more than 15 minutes late, unfortunately, I won’t be able to carry out your treatment that day, and it will be considered a ‘no-show’ appointment.

As my home studio does not have a waiting area, please reach out if you arrive more than 10 minutes early, as I may still be with another client. I’m usually ready to begin around 10 minutes before your scheduled time.

When possible, please arrive without makeup if having a treatment on your face.

Payment Policy

Payment

Payment is taken after your treatment. I accept card, cash, or bank transfer—whichever is most convenient for you.

Health History & Right to Refuse Treatment

Health History

Your comfort and safety are my top priorities. Please let me know if you have any allergies, physical conditions, disabilities, or if you are pregnant. If you feel any discomfort or experience unusual symptoms during your treatment, don’t hesitate to inform me straight away.

Right to Refuse Service

Gloyw reserves the right to decline service to anyone who is intoxicated, behaving inappropriately, or whose health condition may affect the outcome or safety of the treatment.

Late Cancellation & No Show Policy

Late Cancellation & No Show

I understand that emergencies happen. If you need to cancel your appointment, please notify me of any cancellations or reschedulings at least 24 hours prior to the appointment. If the booking was made on the same day, kindly notify me at least 3 hours prior. Cancellations that break these rules will result in a 50% charge of the appointment fee.

No-shows can be really disruptive, as it takes away time that could have been used for other clients. If you miss your appointment without giving prior notice, 50% of the appointment fee will be charged. I truly appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

Children, Guests & Pet Policy

Children and Guests

At Gloyw, I am committed to providing the best experience for every client, which is why I kindly ask that children and additional guests do not accompany you to your appointment.

The space is small and designed to accommodate only the client receiving treatment. During certain services, especially when eyes are closed, it can be challenging to safely supervise children. For safety and insurance reasons, I do not offer children’s services.

Additionally, to ensure the best quality of care, extra guests can be distracting. I appreciate your understanding as I work to create a calm, professional, and relaxing environment for all.

Pets

I love animals, but to keep the pod clean, safe, and comfortable for everyone, I kindly ask that no pets are brought into the salon—except for registered assistance dogs.

Thank you for your cooperation!

 

Complaints Policy

Complaints Policy

If you have any issues, please get in touch ASAP so we can put it right for you.

You may be offered advice or a free check-up appointment to assess the issue and so we can work together to come to a resolution.

Patch Testing Policy

Patch Testing Policy

At Gloyw, your health, safety, and satisfaction are my top priorities. To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience with my services, patch testing is required for tinting, lash lifts, and brow lamination treatments and highly recommended for certain other services.

What is a Patch Test?
A patch test involves applying a small amount of product to a discreet area of your skin (typically the arm or behind the ear) to check for any potential allergic reactions or skin sensitivities.

A patch test is required at least 48 hours before your first appointment and repeated every 6 months if we haven't seen you or if there are any changes to your health.

Required for the following treatments:

  • Eyelash Tinting
  • Eyebrow Tinting
  • Lash Lifting
  • Brow Lamination

Health and Safety

Required for all tinting, lash lifts, and brow lamination treatments to ensure your safety.

May be advised for other services, particularly if you have a history of skin sensitivities or allergies.

What to Expect:

Patch tests should be performed at least 48 hours before your treatment.

If any irritation (redness, swelling, itching) occurs, please contact me immediately so I can recommend an alternative product or treatment.

If no reaction occurs within 48 hours, your treatment can proceed as planned.

At Gloyw, I am committed to providing safe, effective, and personalized beauty services while prioritizing your health and well-being. Thank you for trusting me with your care!
