Salon Lola Policies

  • We kindly ask for at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule any appointment.

    This time allows our stylists to offer your spot to another client and maintain a smooth schedule.

    Here’s how it works:

    • 48 hours before your appointment: No fee. Your deposit is applied to your service or refunded if cancelled.

    • 24-48 hours: Deposit is forfeited.

    • Less than 24 hours: You may be charged 50% of your scheduled service total.

    • No-show: You will be charged 100% of your scheduled service total.

    Emergency or unforeseen events? Reach out ASAP & we will do the same. We understand life happens & will always do our best to be flexible.

    Multiple no-shows or cancellations will result in loss of booking privileges.

  • We know things come up! As a one-time courtesy, clients with no prior late cancellations or no-shows may have their deposit reapplied to a future appointment.
    After this courtesy, all cancellations will follow the standard policy.

  • Your happiness matters to us. If something doesn’t feel right, please let us know within 5 days of your appointment.


    If the issue is related to your original service result, we’ll make adjustments at no charge.


    If you’ve changed your mind or would like a different look from what was discussed, your stylist will review options and pricing with you.


    We do not offer refunds.

Our salon policies are here to keep things fair, respectful, and enjoyable for everyone — our clients, our stylists, and our schedule. We appreciate your understanding and support!

  • To reserve your appointment, a deposit is required at booking:

    • Returning clients: 10% deposit applied to your total service.

    • New clients: 20% deposit applied to your total service.

    • Clients with prior no-shows: 50% deposit required to rebook.

    Deposits are applied to your final service total.

  • We accept all major forms of payment. Including tap-to-pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc.). We do not accept checks.

    Gratitude Over Gratuity 💌 For years, Salon Lola has been a tip-free salon, and while that’s still our heart, we now offer a Tippy kiosk for those who feel inclined to show extra appreciation.

    ✨ What means the most to us:

    • Google & Yelp reviews

    • 💬 Referring your friends & family directly to your stylist

    • 💖 Rebooking appointments to regularly support your stylist

  • We love our families, but for everyone’s safety and comfort, the salon isn’t the best place for unattended children or extra guests.

    New babies and nursing moms are always welcome. Babies in car seats or carriers are just fine during your appointment — we completely understand how important it is to find time for yourself while caring for a little one.
    We only ask that you’re mindful of hot tools and salon activity during your visit.

  • For safety and quality reasons, Salon Lola applies only salon-supplied professional products; outside or client-provided products (including color) cannot be used.

Salon Etiquette

⏰ Running Late?

We totally get it—life happens. If you’re running more than 10-15 minutes late and haven’t let your stylist know, we may need to reschedule your appointment to stay on track for the day. We’ll always do our best to accommodate you when we can! (Cancellation fee may apply)
Please text us at (937) 900-0759 as soon as you know you’ll be late. (And don’t worry—we’ll do the same if we're ever running behind.)

🖤 Be Respectful

We strive to create a calm, inclusive, and professional environment for everyone. Please be mindful of language, volume, and respect for other guests during your visit.

Disrespectful or discriminatory behavior of any kind will not be tolerated. This includes any language or actions that are derogatory, offensive, racist, homophobic, or otherwise harmful to others.

We reserve the right to not continue or cancel any service that feels out of alignment with our values of kindness, respect, and care.

Meet Jess, Founder & Curl Enthusiast!

Hi, I’m Jess Fisher, founder of Salon Lola and a curly hair specialist in Dayton, Ohio, with over 17 years in the beauty industry. My passion lies in education, mentorship, and creating a salon experience where clients and stylists alike can grow and feel supported.

When I opened Salon Lola in 2018, my goal was to build more than just a salon — I wanted a space rooted in education, inclusivity, and genuine connection. Today, we specialize in curly hair, lived-in color, and extensions for all textures and tones, proudly serving Dayton’s diverse and multicultural community.

In 2025, I was honored to be named a Finalist for the Dayton Business Journal’s Entrepreneur of the Year, and in 2026, I’m serving as a Mentor for BizWomen Mentoring Monday with the Dayton Business Journal — opportunities that reflect my commitment to growing and uplifting others in our industry.

The name “Lola” was inspired by my daughters, Londyn and Layla, whose joy and creativity shape everything we do. Around here, kindness, respect, and culture lead the way — whether you’re in the chair or behind it. Salon Lola is built on connection, care, and a whole lot of heart. I’m so glad you’re here.
