Client Communication & Third-Party Coordination Policy
Should the Client request, permit, or require direct communication, coordination, or decision-making involvement with any third party (including but not limited to wedding planners, coordinators, family members, bridal parties, or vendors), such involvement introduces additional administrative time, communication layers, and workflow management outside the standard scope of services.
In such cases, a Third-Party Coordination Administrative Fee will apply. This fee is assessed to account for additional correspondence, revisions, scheduling adjustments, and extended management time required to maintain service accuracy and execution standards.
- Fee: $100 per hour
- Applies per additional point of contact beyond the Bride
- Must be approved and paid prior to extended coordination being provided
The Artist reserves the right to limit communication and coordination to the Bride only in order to maintain clarity, consistency, and execution quality.
I went to A Touch Of Color for the first time as a pre-trial to get an updo for my engagement party and Ashleigh was the absolute BEST! I wanted to try it out before the big day and I was so pleased with the service, the salon, my hair.. everything. I would highly recommend going there for any special occasion. I scheduled my next appt right away!
