Frequently Asked Questions
Hudson Hawk Barber & Shop requires all guests to provide a valid credit card to reserve appointments. Rest assured, our phone and reservation systems are PCI compliant, safeguarding your information. Cancellations must be made at least two hours prior to avoid a charge. Any cancellations made less than two hours before the appointment will result in a charge of 50% of the total service cost. A no-show will incur a charge for 100% of the total service cost.
No, we do not accept cash payments for services. All major credit cards and electronic forms of payment are accepted. No cash is kept in shops.
At Hudson / Hawk Barber & Shop we understand that schedule conflicts and last-minute changes are necessary at times. We respectfully ask that you reschedule or cancel at least 2 hours before the beginning of your appointment. Any appointment canceled within 2 hours of the scheduled time will result in a charge of 50% of the original service fee to be charged to your credit card or gift card on file.
A no-show means you did not show up for the full duration of the appointment without notice or cancellation. All no-shows will be charged 100% of the scheduled service cost to your credit card or gift card on file. We provide courtesy email and/or text messages 24 to 48 hours in advance to ensure your appointment still fits within your schedule. Ultimately, it remains our guest’s responsibility to keep their appointment times and update us if there are schedule conflicts with your existing appointment.
Group appointment services are offered for 4 or more people and required for groups of 6 or more. Shop rental may be available for private parties. For group availability, a two-week notice and a 50% non-refundable deposit is required to reserve group services and shop rentals. No appointment changes can be made after the deposit has been paid. To book your group appointment or request more information, please see our contact page.
At Hudson / Hawk Barber & Shop we are committed to excellence and the satisfaction of our clients without exception. If a service is performed and you feel unsatisfied with your experience, we will invite you back to the shop of your choice to redo or correct the service to ensure your satisfaction. All retail sales of grooming products are final. No returns or exchanges can be made after the product leaves the shop.
Barbershops are different than facilities designed specifically for children because there are barbers performing face and neck shaves on clients. For the child’s safety and comfort, and the safety and comfort of all clients, we ask that children can sit still for several minutes at a time and not attempt to get out of their chair.
When a child is ready for the barbershop, Hudson / Hawk barbers provide the same service on the ‘little guys’ as we do the ‘big guys,’ including hair washouts, hot towels, and massages (select services) so our pricing is the same by service, rather than by age.
As a general guideline, children aged four and older may be ready for the barbershop while younger children may be more comfortable in a setting designed for their needs.
If a gift card is lost or stolen, no worries. We keep your information and gift card amount on file. Be sure to notify the shop you plan to visit beforehand to ensure there aren’t any issues.
Services are charged as reserved and include all components of the service. We do not offer a discounted price if a client chooses to opt-out of a portion of their service. (Ex. wash, or vibrating massage)
Your time is valuable. We make every attempt to stay on schedule, but sometimes circumstances keep our barbers from beginning their next appointment on time. If your barber is finishing with a client into your scheduled appointment time, your barber will let you know how much time to expect for the delayed start. We’ll make every attempt not to let that delay affect your service or appointment end time.
If your barber is running behind for your appointment and another barber is available, you’ll have the option to see the other barber for your service.
The Clean-Up service is a quick option to Stay Sharp between full-service haircuts and is a clipper service that begins at the temples and moves down and around the perimeter of the hairline to trim the base of the hair. The Clean-Up service does not include cutting the full sides and back, trimming the top of the head, wash-out, or massage. To keep scheduled appointment times with your full-service barber available for those days when you need a complete cut and service, the Clean-Up service is a walk-in service only.
