Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: If you need a visit, fill out the request form linked from restoresalonservices.org/services, and expect a team member to reach out after you submit it..

Check with the group before you show up. You need to sign up first.

What to expect

A licensed stylist comes to you at a home, hospital, rehab center or care facility, and can cut, style, blow-dry, do up-dos, buzz cuts, wig styling and barber work for all hair types, starting in infancy. Caregivers and family members are also served. The site does not say how long a visit lasts or how soon one can be booked, though testimonials on the site mention private rooms and gentle handling.

Tips for your first visit

  • Expect a call or email from the team after you submit the request form, since the site does not say how soon.
  • Ask about parking or transit before a visit, because the site lists neither.
  • Use the services request form for a visit; the Circle of Care page is a donation form.
  • Helpers: the stylist form asks for the days you can work from Monday to Saturday and a short bio.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: Anyone who needs a visit can use a public request form and the page says staff will follow up, though the site does not describe volunteer training or what happens after a volunteer signs up..
