Booking your hair appointment just got easier and cheaper…
Hands up who forgets to book their hair appointment in advance? And, when it dawns on you that your roots are in desperate need of a cover up or you look like something the cat dragged in – you can’t get an appointment! Well, Pierre Alexandre Hair and Beauty have come up with a handy solution for anyone who needs an appointment at short notice and offers one of the best ‘cuts’ around. The salon based on King Street West in the heart of Manchester’s City Centre has launched an app that allows you to choose from a number of late availability slots which, if booked with less than 48 hours to go, gives you 40% off the original price.
We put it to the test to see exactly how it works and if you get the same service at almost half the price…
1/ Download
Type in Pierre Alexandre in the App Store and hey presto the app is there and it’s free. If you haven’t got a smart phone/tablet then you can just visit their website and access it through that.
2/ Choose
Once you’ve got it then you’ll be able to see all the dates and times still available from that day onward and for the next few days.
3/ Options
You get to choose a particular stylist from junior to senior or a particular beautician if they are available. Select a time that’s within 48 hours of booking and the price is reduced by 40%.
4/ Book
Once booked you receive an alert to let you know your appointment has been made and also get the added option to type back to the salon any notes you want to add, such as if you might be five/ten minutes late or if you need your hair finished by a certain time.
5/ Arrive
Turn up at the salon for your booking and you get the same treatment and quality service you would get if you had paid full price. Angelina looked after us and we opted for a blow dry with added Olaplex which we were told creates healthy hair from the inside out. The result was super soft hair and a great style which stayed well for a number of days.
Verdict:
The Pierre Alexandre App is a great tool for anyone who is on the go and can be flexible about when they can visit a salon. It’s perfect for those with a busy lifestyle who don’t like committing to an appointment weeks ahead. A money saving app which delivers the same service without paying full price.
