Service Description

Designed as a shorter maintenance appointment to keep your existing shape looking fresh. This service includes: A maintenance trim following your existing shape – no shape changes or restyling Cleanse and condition Curl styling and diffusing If you'd like a new shape, restyle or more significant cut, please book a Curl Transformation instead. An at-home detox should be carried out before your appointment to help ensure the best possible salon results. Treatments such as detox or hydrating masks, in-depth styling guidance and restyling/new-shape cutting are not included in the Express Curl Transformation due to the shorter appointment time. We retail many of the treatments we use in the salon for home use, with prices starting from £10. Our maintenance trim is perfect for removing dry or damaged ends while maintaining your existing shape. We'll then cleanse and condition your hair at the backwash before styling and diffusing your curls, leaving them refreshed and beautifully defined. This service is available to returning clients aged 11+. New clients aged 11+ should book a New Client Curl Transformation for their first appointment. Please allow approximately 1.5–2 hours for your appointment. Appointment time will vary depending on your hair's length and density. Please arrive on time and with your hair correctly prepared as follows: Clean, fully detangled and 100% dry Worn loose in its natural curl pattern – no bobbles, clips, buns, ponytails or twists Product-free or styled with a small amount of light curl cream or leave-in conditioner Free from gels, mousses, heavy oils and butters Not brushed or straightened If your hair has not been prepared according to our guidelines, we may not have sufficient time to complete your service. Where possible, we'll find a suitable solution; however, additional charges may apply for extra time or extensive detangling. If we are unable to proceed because the preparation requirements have not been followed, the full cost of the booked appointment will be payable. Please see our FAQs and Policies & Terms & Conditions for further information about hair preparation, booking fees, cancellations and rescheduling. If you're unsure about anything before your appointment, please contact us. A non-refundable booking fee is required to secure your appointment and will be deducted from your service total. You will receive confirmation of your appointment by email. Please add info@absolutecurls.com as a safe sender.
