Conduct Expectations


APPEARANCE & DRESS CODE

Professionalism is paramount at Darrell Barrett Salon and Spa. Our appearance and dress code is in place to make our guests as well as yourself know you mean business. We take this very seriously and reserve the right to send a team member home to change if leadership finds the dress diverting from our standards set below.

  • Clothes must be professional and may be any variation of Black, White and Gray.

  • We allow you to accessorize in color with your shoes, jewelry, scarf and hair accessories.

  • Black and Gray denim is acceptable, however, it cannot be faded or have holes in it. Any denim resembling blue jean denim is unacceptable - i.e.  faded black or gray.

  • No athletic style leggings.

  • No sleeveless shirts allowed.

  • No shorts allowed.

  • Skirts must be a modest length.

  • No athletic shoes - (only fashion style shoes).

  • Open toe shoes are allowed, however no casual, beach style flip-flops.

  • Only fashionable hats are allowed - No beanies, bandanas or baseball caps.

  • Hair must always be styled fashionably! Casual ponytails are not acceptable. We prefer Goldwell or Aveda hair color to be used, however if another brand is used a stylist must be able to replicate the look with Goldwell or Aveda color. 

  • Aveda makeup is encouraged, but if another brand is worn, it must be in alignment with what Aveda offers. A guest must be able to be replicate the look with Aveda makeup.

  • To not overpower the Aveda aroma, we ask that over powering synthetic perfumes not be worn in the salon.
