Mica/The chairs

Wren Ostberg

Cutting, first colour

Newest chair here, which means I have room this week. I do a lot of first appointments and a lot of people who have not liked a haircut in a while.

Taking new clients
Yes
Books out
About a week
Wren Ostberg at her chair at Mica Hair Studio

The levels she works in

  • 3Dark brown
  • 4Medium brown
  • 5Light brown
  • 6Dark blonde
  • 7Medium blonde
  • 8Light blonde

Outside this range you want a different chair, and we would rather say so than take the booking.

01/Her calendar

When she is actually free.

No phone call, no direct message, no waiting until she is between clients. Colour days run in long blocks because processing cannot be interleaved with cuts.

Her week

  • Tue

    Not in

  • Wed

    9:00 to 19:30

  • Thu

    9:00 to 19:30

    colour day

  • Fri

    9:00 to 19:30

  • Sat

    9:00 to 19:30

She books about a week, and is taking new clients. Her actual open times load on this page; if they have not, phone 250 555 0148 and someone will read them to you.

02/The proof

Straight off her chair.

Every one of these came off Wren’s chair. Shot at the window, unstyled the next morning where we could, because that is what it looks like when you live in it.

  • A short clipper fade photographed close at the back of the head, the gradient running from near skin at the neck into longer hair with no visible step

    Clipper work and fades

  • A soft mid length cut seen from behind, long invisible layers falling into each other so the ends move as one shape

    Cuts, all lengths

  • A root retouch seen from directly behind, the parting clean and the colour even from scalp through lengths with no band or darker strip

    Root retouch

03/The boundary

What she does.

  • Cuts, all lengths
  • Clipper work and fades
  • First-time colour
  • Root retouch

What she does not.

  • Colour correction
  • Extensions

Every one of these is a boundary she chose. Practising on your head is how people end up needing a correction, and a correction costs more than the service that caused it.
