I was looking for a new salon and I tried to book an appointment with Sergio. I was told I need to leave my credit card number with them or a cash deposit. NO WHERE EVER have I been asked to leave my payment information with a salon just to BOOK an appointment. They told me it was it was because I was booking with the owner. I've had appointments with salon owners and NEVER had to leave payment info. They told me that if I didn't show up for my appointment they would bill me 50% of the services. Why would you assume someone wouldn't show up to an appointment right off the bat??? I could understand if I was an existing unreliable client that you would require that. Some of us aren't from a ghetto and actually grew up with some tact and class and the ability to show up to an appointment and or reschedule if there is a conflict. Ridiculousness... I'll take my business elsewhere.
