Choose Your Pathway

Booking Guide

Booking is the first part of the journey and it should feel intentional, grounded, and aligned with your hair journey. This is not about choosing quickly. It’s about choosing with clarity and care.

When you’re ready, you’ll be guided to our booking page in a new tab. Take your time here first so your selection feels supported, not rushed.

Once you’re redirected, choose one of two options in the “category” dropdown:

  • New Guest Rituals

  • Returning Guest Rituals

Each option supports you where you are now.

New Guest Rituals

For first-time guests or those returning after time away (12 weeks or more since last visit).

This pathway includes foundational care, scalp assessment, restorative treatment work, and styling to understand your hair in its current state.

If you’re unsure what to choose, start with:

New Guest Consultation Ritual

This allows us to assess your hair in real time and guide your care moving forward.

Begin First Visit

Returning Guest Rituals

These services are designed for upkeep, refinement, and continued progress.


Because your hair has already been supported, these sessions focus on maintaining results rather than rebuilding.

Continue Your Care

Loc’d Guest Rituals

Loc services are booked within both New Guest and Returning Guest Rituals.

You will select your service based on:

  • Loc count

  • Length

  • Maintenance needs (retwist or interloc)

*Starter Locs can be booked after your NEW CLIENT CONSULTATION RITUAL to ensure you are starting your journey with wellness for longevity.

If You’re Unsure…

If you feel uncertain about what to book, that is a valid place to begin.

Start with a Consultation Ritual or reach out to me.

From there, your next steps will become clear.

Frequently Asked Questions *

  • No. If you’re unsure, that’s completely okay.

    Start with a New Guest Consultation Ritual or a Scalp Facial Ritual. From there, your care path will become clearer and you’ll be guided into the right services moving forward.

  • You are a New Guest if:

    • This is your first visit

    • Or you haven’t been seen by professional in 3+ months (12 weeks or more)

    You are a Returning Guest if:

    • You’ve already completed a New Guest appointment and are maintaining your hair regularly

    If you’re unsure, choose ‘New Guest’ your appointment will be adjusted if needed.

  • Root + Honey is not a high-volume salon experience.

    Each session is intentionally paced, sensory-aware, and rooted in scalp health, textured hair expertise, and ritual-based care.

    Instead of rushing through services, time is structured to support the condition of your hair, your scalp, and your overall experience in the chair.

    This means your appointment is not just about styling, it’s about maintaining the integrity of your hair over time while creating a grounded, restorative environment for you as a whole person.

  • Arrive with clean intentions and open energy.


    No additional preparation is required unless specifically noted in your booking confirmation.

  • Cancellations or reschedules must be made at least 24 hours in advance (depending on your specific booking confirmation).

    Late cancellations or no-shows will likely result in full service fee, as this time is reserved specifically for you.

  • Approved options include:

    • Human hair
    •     Slayyy Braiding Hair
    •     REBUNDLE plant-based braiding hair
    • Other brands that can demonstrate that their products are hypoallergenic, scalp-conscious, and free from concerning toxic materials.

    Sensitivity varies from person to person. Slayyy and REBUNDLE were developed with comfort and scalp-conscious wear in mind, but no extension product can guarantee that every person will be free from irritation.

    ** Please contact Root + Honey before purchasing or bringing the hair so the brand and product information can be reviewed.

  • No. All appointments are scheduled in advance to preserve the intentional pace and quality of each session.

  • No stress, you will not be turned away.

    Your service may be adjusted in real time based on your hair’s needs, timing, and maintenance requirements. If necessary, we will agree on a different time/date to accomadate.

  • This depends on your hair type and service:

    • Loose natural styles: typically every 2–4 weeks

    • Twist styles: 2–6 weeks

    • Loc maintenance: 4–8 weeks

    Your personal rhythm will be refined over time during your visits.

  • To maintain a calm and focused environment, additional guests are not permitted unless previously discussed.

  • Yes. Root + Honey is a space that honors the connection between hair, body, and spirit.

    Your presence, nervous system state, and overall energy are part of the care experience. This is not about performance or perfection, it is about showing up as you are so your hair and scalp care can be fully supported.

    Nothing is required of you beyond presence and openness to receive care.
