**Saturday openings are completely booked until October/November!!**

•Before // After•

✨Happy Saturday!!!✨

In just a FEW days I’ll be back in the salon, doing what I love the most and I CANT WAIT!! We have done a lot of work behind the scenes to freshen up our space, make it as inviting and clean as possible- and to ensure all salon reopening guidelines are met! We are doing our part, so PLEASE do yours when you come in for your appointment!

I believe I have reached out to everyone on my priority list for rescheduled appointments- however if I have not reached out to you and you were expecting me to, I apologize, please reach out to me ASAP! I really tried my best to keep my list as organized as possible!

✨Also I am now opening up my appointment book for further scheduling! Please keep in mind that I am completely booked until mid July!!! I understand that is over a month out, however I did have to reschedule about 75 people with limited spacing, so please be understanding! If you would like to schedule an appointment you can PM or text 331-999-2656!✨

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!!!

Clients PLEASE READ!!! I’m sorry it’s long but it’s important!!

🚨Regulations have been released!!🚨
For Phase 3 here is what is to be expected -

✨First and MOST IMPORTANT RULE- if you are not feeling well, live with someone who is not feeling well, or have been in close contact with anyone who isnt feeling well, RESCHEDULE. IF you have had close contact with ANYONE who has tested positive for Covid 19, symptomatic or not, IF you have had a fever in the last 72 hours, If you are awaiting the results of a Covid 19 test, IF you are supposed to be quarantined, IF you are coughing and sneezing and think its just allergies, RESCHEDULE. I absolutely reserve the right of refusal of a service to anyone. A release of liability waiver will be provided for you to sign. You are receiving a service AT YOUR OWN RISK****

✨Temps will be taken BEFORE entering the salon!

✨Masks MUST be worn for our entire visit!

••LONG post alert however clients PLEASE read!••

Let’s talk about how rescheduling will work out because with the unforeseen and uncontrollable circumstances that have occurred due to the coronavirus, I find myself in a slight predicament in regard to rescheduling/scheduling my clients. I don’t want to sound harsh at all but I DO want to be as open and clear about what this kind of looks like moving forward- so bare with me as this post is somewhat information overload!
All of you are special and like family to me and although I would like to reschedule you all for the week I reopen, it will be literally impossible to do so. Upon looking through my list of clients, I am afraid it could •potentially• take me up to 4-5ish weeks after I get the go ahead to reopen to fit everyone back into my schedule and return to normal booking. This includes clients who were either on my schedule before the shutdown began and those that have contacted me since to be put on an appointment list. I currently have over 55 people wanting to be scheduled which totals to roughly 140-160 hours of appointments (and this list is growing daily!) Please remember that I will not be allowed to double book at all (meaning 1 client at a time, and some color appointments can take up to 3ish hours to provide)- I will also have to have a good amount of time in between each appointment to do the proper extensive sanitation!
I realized when I had to start cancelling appointments that the only *fair* way to resume scheduling once I reopened was to keep a list of client’s original appointment times. If you had an appointment already scheduled during the stay-at-home order, I immediately put you on the reschedule list in the same order that appointments were canceled! Additionally, if you messaged/called /commented on a previous post to make an appointment after the shutdown began and didn’t already have an appointment scheduled between March 22nd through the end of May, I placed you on the list after those individuals who already had scheduled appointments. As soon as I know the CONFIRMED date that I can reopen the salon, I will contact everyone on the list to start scheduling appointments. PLEASE wait for me to contact you with a rescheduled appointment time so I can keep this process as organized and as fair as possible. Also, once I contact you please respond back to me as soon as possible so I can move on to rescheduling the next person on my contact list! Once I have my original list of clients rescheduled I will make it aware that my book is now open for other appointments!
Please know that it breaks my heart to have to make anyone wait for an appointment. I trust that you will be understanding and as patient as possible as I work through the list to get all of you scheduled.

Also The coronavirus has changed the way we as a society must act when in public. Therefore, your salon visit WILL look different when you come in. Please understand that I will have to follow ALL state requirements/guidelines when I reopen! I will be posting what that will look like once the state gives me those guidelines/requirements! (I’m praying the state gives these guidelines to me sooner rather than later)

If you have any questions about any of this please do not hesitate to reach out to me!!!

Much love

Hey everyone!!
I am proud to say that I am Barbicide Certified!! ✨✨ I have taken these courses and passed the two exams to ensure my continued education in Sanitation, Infection Control and Covid-19 is up to par for the safety of myself and all of my clients!
Health, hygiene and sanitation is crucial in my salon space and my main focus these past few weeks has really been to ensure that myself and my clients can return to a safe and sterile environment when the salon doors reopen. I will continue to uphold my high standards of cleanliness and will have extra precautions being put in place to maintain these standards and to help keep my salon space a safe environment for you all to relax in. I am still waiting for the green light for when we can reopen (I understand that phase 3 in Illinois is “projected” to begin May 29th, but please understand that it is NOT a confirmed date! I will also need to wait for specific procedures, guidelines, and sanitation protocol from the Illinois state board) but I promise as soon as I get the go ahead I will start rebooking appointments and will share the new policies and procedures! Also I will kindly ask that all guests in the salon comply with these measures to ensure everyone stays safe. I also want to say THANK YOU for your continued support and I really can't wait to see you all.

I hope each and every one of you are staying safe and healthy! I hope to see you all soon,
Heather.Nicole 🖤

Hey friends/clients!!!
It’s been 33 days - and another 30 to go...😢

I MISS YOU ALL- and I MISS the salon! But I do want to spread some positivity and extreme gratitude for Every. Single. Person that has been so supportive while going through this!

🤍 Thank you to the ones that have reached out to me to just simply ask how I’m “holding up”- you have no idea how much this means to me. Thank you for thinking of me!

🤍 Thank you to the ones that have sent me funny hair memes and videos- please keep doing that, laughing through this a little is helping me keep it together!

🤍 Thank you to the ones that have sent me messages saying they will wait for me no matter how long this last- or have purchased gift cards!!Knowing I have that kind of support from my clients makes me hopeful for the future!

🤍 Thank you to the ones that have sent me “gifts”- please know you have helped restore my faith in humanity as some have been very negative- please know that your thoughtfulness has brought me happy tears on a regular basis.

🤍 Thank you to the ones that have been understanding through this all- understanding that none of us asked for this, understanding that this seems to be the safest option, understanding that it breaks my heart to cancel appointments, it breaks my heart to not be able to do my passion, it breaks my heart that it feels like a “piece of me” is missing, it breaks my heart to have to remain closed - But ultimately EVERYONES health is more important right now! Please continue to be understanding as all of us stylists are trying to figure what our “new norm” will look like the day we are allowed to open the doors again!

I’m just simply so thankful for you all! Please stay positive, stay healthy, love one another, and keep supporting each other- we will get through this together! 💕

So much love,
Hair by Heather.Nicole

A gift for tomorrow

I would love to see you in the salon when things have settled down. Your support will help make that a reality! Send a digital gift card in any amount you choose to your friends, family, or yourself!

**if you purchase a gift card I would love if you would reach out to me so I can send you a personal "thank you!"

Thank you and I can’t wait to see you again,
Heather Patarozzi

Hey friends/clients 💕
I’m sure if you have been watching our governors press conferences or scrolling Facebook you already know what’s going on- but still wanted to give an update personally about the salon!

Due to the mandate being extended until April 30, obviously the salon doors have to remain closed until further notice. I had a feeling this was coming but truthfully it still hurts my heart! I miss all of my clients and I miss being in the salon doing what I love the most!

I will be reaching out again to all of my scheduled appointments to discuss what this looks like moving forward! Please understand that everyone that was scheduled or rescheduled for the month of April has to be canceled and I will reschedule those appointments when the mandate is lifted! Please know that you can reach out to me at anytime for anything! And I simply CANT wait until I can get my hands on some hair again!

Stay safe, stay healthy, and so much love!!
Heather Patarozzi
