Short / Clipper Cut
45–60 min. Ideal for clipper work, short crops, and barbering. Tight shape, clean lines, and a quick consult on how to wear it between appointments.
Every service starts with a real conversation and ends with you knowing exactly how to wear it. Cuts, color, perms, extensions, gender-affirming styles, and nourishing treatments — tailored to your texture, your features, and your version of yourself.
Reference photos, a vague idea, or no idea at all — we start by listening. Your stylist looks at your texture, growth patterns, head shape, and lifestyle before they pick up a single tool.
Every service is shaped around what works for you specifically. Timing, pricing, and maintenance get set up front by the stylist who owns their chair — so there are no surprises at the wash bowl.
Every cut finishes with a full style (blowout or diffuse) and a quick how-to. You leave knowing how to wear it on a Tuesday morning, not just on the day you walked out of the salon.
What you'll get: consultation, cleanse, tailored cut, and a full style finish so you leave knowing how to wear it. Choose your window below — pricing varies by stylist.
45–60 min. Ideal for clipper work, short crops, and barbering. Tight shape, clean lines, and a quick consult on how to wear it between appointments.
60–75 min. The right window for most bobs, lobs, and medium lengths. Built for the cuts that live or die by how they're sectioned and how the ends move.
75–105 min. For big shape changes, long hair, or very thick and curly textures. The window where chops, regrows, and total identity shifts actually have room to breathe.
Soft, lived-in layers with face-framing pieces. Built around your growth patterns so it grows out as well as it sits the day you walk out.
A softer, more textural finish than scissor work alone. Great for movement, broken ends, and that effortless undone look.
The chaotic cousin of the shag. Heavier weight up top, tapered through the ends — engineered for hair that wants to do something.
Clipper work, fades, line-ups, and detail finishing. Booked into the short / clipper window with stylists who specialize in the craft.
Cuts built around how you actually want to be seen. Our Capitol Hill team in particular works with this every day — bring photos, bring questions, bring nothing at all.
A full style finish — blowout or diffuse — comes standard with every cut service. We don't believe in handing you wet hair and a hope.
Every Lady Neptune stylist is well-versed in a range of techniques — but here's a rough guide based on where each one's heart is.
Every color appointment is a formula built around your hair history, your texture, and how much maintenance you actually want to commit to. Stylists set timing and pricing up front so a balayage doesn't quietly turn into a five-hour day.
A single-process refresh on your existing color. Roots, tone correction, and gloss — the appointment that keeps everything looking intentional between bigger sessions.
Foiled highlights placed for depth and dimension — soft contrast, lived-in roots, and a finish that grows out as gracefully as it goes in.
Hand-painted color that sits like sun on your hair — soft at the root, brighter through the ends. Built for a longer grow-out cycle so you're not on a six-week leash to the salon.
Pinks, blues, copper, lavender, green — full vivid placements or peekaboo accents. We'll talk you through lift requirements, maintenance, and the realistic timeline before any color hits the bowl.
Box-dye gone sideways. A bleach job that turned brassy. A green pool moment. Correction work is its own discipline — we'll build a multi-session plan that gets you to your goal without frying your hair off.
The in-between appointment that keeps tone honest, brass at bay, and shine on the surface where it belongs. Often added onto a refresh or balayage finish.
Not your aunt's '80s perm. Today's perm chemistry — paired with a rod choice and pattern designed for your hair — builds soft body, bouncy curls, or full-on coils that air-dry beautifully and stretch your time between appointments.
Length, density, or a specific look that your natural hair won't get to on its timeline. We'll walk through method options, matching, maintenance, and what an honest year of extensions actually looks like before you commit.
Bond-building, hydration, scalp-focused — treatments that actually move the needle, using lines that don't punish the planet on the way out the door. Add onto any cut or color, or book as a stand-alone reset.
You book and consult directly with your pro, and they set clear expectations around timing, pricing, and maintenance based on your goals. Independence gives you choice and specialization. Inside the salon we still operate as a community — sharing education, comparing formulas, and collaborating across chairs — so you get the brain trust of a team with the care of a dedicated owner-operator.
