Repost from @oliver.jamessalon COVID has no chill. So neither can we. We are EXCITED to announce we will be reopening Thursday May 21st! ... But there are a few things we’d like to make very clear. . . Oliver+james is a warm, welcoming space built on close relationships. And we intend to keep it that way. A positive experience for our guests has always been our priority. And we intend to keep it that way. . . We are feeling all the emotions as we approach our reopening. Which is why we will do so slowly, with caution and respect to the many different levels of anxiety surrounding this ongoing situation. Your patience, understanding and continued support is appreciated beyond words. . . MOST IMPORTANTLY Follow our link in bio, visit our website or check your inbox for our newsletter to read ALL information regarding our plan to reopen as well as guidelines + practices to expect from us and what we are kindly asking of you. But some key points to know . . * WE will contact YOU to get rescheduled from closure. * WE will contact YOU about confirming upcoming appointments. .* We will start contacting guests in the coming days. Be patient, this takes some time. .* If you don’t feel comfortable yet, NO WORRIES! We will schedule you for a later date. .* The safety of our team and community is our first priority and we are taking all necessary steps to resume responsibly. FOLLOW LINKS mentioned above to know what those are. . . All craziness aside - we can’t wait to see you, catch up + tame those manes! See more

Repost from @oliver.jamessalon R E A L T A L K We know this is a time of excruciating patience for all our clients. No one is more frustrated or unnerved by the uncertainty of these circumstances than us. This is our livelihood. This is our income. But we must comply with the current mandates, including social distancing. ... We will not be making house calls. We will not be providing color kits. For many professional reasons and liability concerns, not to mention it puts our license in jeopardy. Best way you can support us? Be there when we can finally open our doors again. Be there. Three inch regrowth, unkempt ends and all. Be there with the understanding that even when we open again, we will need to ask for just a bit more patience before we can see you. We have hundreds of appointments to reschedule and guests to accommodate. So be there. Because we will need you as much as you need us. We can’t express enough the gratitude we have for the love and support you’ve shown us thus far. We are here for you in all the same capacity with product purchases, gift cards and all your burning hair questions. We will cry in excitement the day we can finally run our hands through your beautiful manes again and catch up on all the cool shit you did in quarantine Your favorite seat will be waiting for you. So until then, STAY HOME and STAY HEALTHY. We heart you, DSM. See more
