What Is a Special Occasion Hair Service?
A special occasion hair service is a dedicated styling appointment — updo, refined blowout, or finished set — built around a single event rather than a maintenance schedule. At Mint on the Avenue, the service begins with a conversation about your hair history, the event’s dress code, and how long the style needs to hold. Every appointment uses Aveda plant-based, cruelty-free formulas; the team draws on lines like Brilliant for shine work, Smooth Infusion for frizz management, and Botanical Repair where structural support is needed. Services start at $50 and take approximately 60 minutes in the chair — final pricing depends on artist level, hair length, and the complexity of the finish, and is always confirmed before work begins.
