If you are required to change or cancel an appointment, please contact the salon as soon as possible.
We sometimes are required to amend appointments to ensure you receive the correct timing for your service. We will contact you if we need to amend appointments.
If on the day your therapist is not available to perform the service (e.g. sick) we will endeavour to contact you as soon as possible. We will try to offer another individual or reschedule your appointment.
Late Arrivals & No Shows
You should aim to arrive at the salon ready for your appointment time. We understand that you may run late and we ask that you contact the salon to notify us if you are going to be late. We may be required to amend or shorten the time of your appointment to avoid inconvenience to other clients.
If after 15 mins of your scheduled appointment time you fail to show, without notification from yourself, we will mark the appointment as a ‘No-Show’. This will be marked upon your file. If you accumulate more than 3 no shows, we reserve the right to ask for a deposit or full payment in advance of booking future appointments.
Prices
Prices on our price list and on our website act as a guide. They do not include pre-agreed prices, offers or packaged deals. Final prices will be agreed on consultation.
Skin Test Policy
You must have a skin test carried out if:
You are a client receiving an eyelash tint and/or eyebrow tint service for the first time at Tranquility or an existing client who hasn’t received an eyelash tint and/or eyebrow tint service in the last 6 months. Skin tests for an eyelash tint and/or eyebrow tint must be performed at least 48 hours prior to the technical service.
We may require further tests to be performed if you or the salon is changing brand of product that is used, if you have had any lifestyle changes that could impact on your safety or to test the suitability of the products on you. This is not an exhaustive list.
No exceptions are made to the above rules and failure to adhere to the policy may result in your service being changed or cancelled. Under no circumstances do we accept waivers or disclaimers.

We don’t take responsibility for lost or damaged items. You should keep your valuables with you at all times and ensure you have everything before you leave the salon. We ask that you don’t bring in with you any items that could potentially be damaged because of activity in the salon. If you are requested to remove jewellery or other items for your service, ensure that you store them somewhere safe.

Complaints
Our priority is for you to be completely satisfied with the service you receive from us. We run a professional business, so we aim for the highest standards in everything we do. We take all complaints seriously, so we have a complaints policy and process we follow to make sure things are put right when needed and we learn from your feedback.
Process
Tell someone you’re not happy with the service you received, either whilst in the salon or as soon as possible after leaving.
We will listen to your feedback and ask questions as necessary to understand why you are making a complaint. We aim to resolve complaints within 8 weeks,
Where we think your complaint is reasonable, we will redo the part or all or the service or treatment as soon as possible. The work can be done by an alternative beauty therapist if you prefer, although this may not be possible if the individual is self-employed.
If we can’t fix the problem, we may offer a partial or full refund depending on how reasonable we consider your complaint to be.
If, after following our complaints policy we still can’t agree on how to resolve the complaint to your satisfaction, as required by the Consumer Rights Act 2015, we will refer you to a certified alternative dispute resolution provider, Small Claims Mediation Ltd. They are mediators, an independent third party which listens to both sides and helps us both work towards a fair and reasonable compromise which, if agreed, becomes legally binding. It is a cheaper alternative for you than taking legal action.
We will participate in a one hour session at a mutually agreed time with Small Claims Mediation Ltd. Please note there is a charge of £50+VAT for the salon and £50+VAT for you as the client.
