This guide focuses on choosing the appointment for keratin smoothing consultation. Use it to prepare a specific salon conversation, then confirm the plan with the stylist who assesses your hair.
Choose the goal before the booking label
A smoothing consultation compares a desired texture change with the requirements of the proposed treatment. To book keratin smoothing consultation, explain the finished result and ask which menu item matches it. Similar labels can describe different appointment blocks, especially when a consultation, cutting or finishing is also needed.
Give the salon useful information
Describe your current length, texture and hair history, then explain what should change. Product choice, hair history and aftercare should be clear before proceeding. Ask: “What product would be used and what instructions apply afterward?” If you are deciding between keratin smoothing consultation and a temporary blowout, say so before the visit.
Select the actual studio
Craft Collective has a North Hills studio at 2014D Babcock Blvd, Pittsburgh, and a Canonsburg studio at 115 W Pike St. North Hills has online booking. Canonsburg is by appointment; call 724-514-7231 to schedule. Confirm the selected stylist, service and location rather than assuming every appointment is available at both studios.
