Written-price honesty
Every colour appointment carries a written total before any bowl is mixed, with no hidden toner, “bond add-on” or blow-dry charges at the desk.
About · How we work
A calm studio built for consistency, not crowds.
We started Meadowlark for people who care about their hair and its health and wanted an alternative to rushed walk-in chains and double-booked chairs.
The room
Quiet enough to take your time.
Many salons book far more clients than the chairs can hold and count on stylists working two at once. Meadowlark books one client per stylist at a time, so the basin, the chair and the stylist stay yours for the whole visit, because we want you to relax.
Stylists keep a written card in which each colour builds on the last in tone, depth or brightness, rather than starting again every visit. Your consultation is with a working stylist, not a commissioned salesperson, and ends with the simplest service that fits your hair and your budget.
Three promises
What stays consistent
No hidden extras, no surprise toner fees and no pressure to book on the day.
Well-kept tools
Shears are sharpened, brushes and combs disinfected, basins scrubbed between clients and chairs reupholstered before they wear through.
Every hair type welcome
Clients aged 6 to 86 sit in these chairs, from tight coils and fine silver hair to first-time colour and long-time balayage regulars.
The consultation route
Four steps to a first visit
A stylist handles each step, from the first visit to the colour review.
01
Consult
A free 20-minute look in daylight, goal chat and strand test with a senior stylist.
02
Choose
Pick a precision cut, balayage, foil highlights or a smoothing or scalp treatment.
03
Plan
Colour clients receive a written formula and price built around their hair history, upkeep and budget.
04
Review
Note how the colour wears week by week and review tone and condition with your stylist at every visit.
Studio policies
Rescheduling, patch tests and what we leave to your doctor.
Appointments can be moved without charge with 24 hours’ notice by phone or email, and any cut can be refined free within seven days if it is not quite right. Stylists carry out patch tests but do not diagnose scalp or skin conditions, so please keep diagnoses and medical records out of the contact form.
