Virtual vs. In-Person Hair Consultations: Why We Offer Both at The Press Room Salon
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience and connection are more important than ever. At The Press Room Salon in Atlanta, we understand that every client has unique needs, schedules, and comfort levels—which is why we proudly offer both virtual and in-person consultations for our services.
While in-person consults still have their place, virtual consultations have quickly become our go-to method for connecting with new clients, offering expert insight, and creating customized hair plans—all without needing to step foot in the salon.
Here’s why both options matter—and why we love virtual for ease, structure, and accessibility.
Why a Consultation Matters in the First Place
Whether you’re booking a natural part sew-in, a silk press, or a deep treatment service, a consultation ensures:
We understand your hair goals and lifestyle
You understand our process, expectations, and prep guidelines
We both feel aligned on the plan moving forward
It’s about more than logistics—it’s about setting you up for success.
The Benefits of Virtual Consultations
We’ve seen firsthand how virtual consultations empower clients with clarity, confidence, and convenience. Here’s why:
✔ Save Time, No Commute
No need to battle Atlanta traffic or rearrange your schedule just for a quick 10-minute chat. With a virtual consult, we meet via video at a time that works for you—from anywhere.
✔ Access Expert Advice from Home
Unsure if your hair is ready for a sew-in? Wondering which service is best for your goals? A virtual consult gives you the chance to ask your questions and receive professional guidance in real time.
✔ Ideal for New Clients or Travelers
Many of our clients fly in from out of state or drive from across the metro area. A virtual consultation allows you to lock in your service plan before you even arrive in Atlanta.
✔ Structured + Intentional
We don’t believe in guesswork. During your virtual consultation, we’ll review your hair’s condition, explain what to expect, and help you feel fully prepared for your appointment.
When an In-Person Consult Might Be Best
While virtual is our go-to, in-person consultations are still valuable in specific situations, such as:
Highly complex hair concerns that require physical assessment
Clients with scalp conditions that need a closer look
Those who prefer hands-on interaction before booking a full service
If that sounds like you, just let us know—we’re happy to schedule an in-salon visit instead.
