Refusal of Service

At Collinge & Co we always strive to provide the very best service we can to our clients. There are very few instances in which we reserve the right to refuse custom if it is in the best interests of those concerned. We will always be polite but will explain our reasons honestly.

  • If a client asks for a service we don’t provide, don’t specialise in, or we aren’t comfortable in providing. e.g. the condition of the hair is not suitable for the service requested.
  • If a client repeatedly fails to show up for an appointment. We appreciate that a change of circumstances can happen to anyone, but if this is happening on a regular basis, it comes detrimental to our business and to other clients.
  • If a client is repeatedly unhappy with the service we provide, despite our best efforts, we may suggest that we are not the right people to do their hair. We want all our clients to have a good experience, and we will be honest if we feel we are unable to provide this.
  • If a client discriminates, abuses, harasses or is violent towards an employee or another client.
