The Hair Blesser
Privacy Policy
Effective June 22, 2026
01Who we are
This site is operated by Jessica Argue, doing business as The Hair Blesser(“we,” “us,” “Jess”). If you have any questions about this policy or your information, contact us at thehairblesserstudio@gmail.com.
02What we collect
We only collect what you give us. We do not sell your information — ever.
- When you book an appointment: your name, email, phone number, and the service/time you select. This is handled through our scheduling provider, Acuity Scheduling.
- When you submit a destination/travel inquiry: your name, email, phone number, party size, travel dates, destination, event type, and any details you include. This is delivered to us through our form provider, Formspree.
- Automatically: basic, non-identifying technical data (e.g., device/browser type, pages visited, and where you arrived from). We use privacy-friendly, cookieless analytics to understand overall site traffic — it counts visits and traffic sources but does not track you as an individual or set advertising cookies.
03How we use it
- To schedule, confirm, and manage your appointments.
- To respond to your travel/destination inquiries and quote custom work.
- To communicate with you about your booking or service.
04Text messages (SMS)
If you provide your phone number, you may receive text messages related to your appointments and waitlist availability (such as confirmations and reminders). When you book, our scheduling provider (Acuity Scheduling) collects your explicit consent for these messages at checkout. Message frequency may vary. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP, or get help by replying HELP.
