Hairstyling Services
BeBlended provides a platform through which users may review and choose offered hairstyling services, pick appointment dates and times for the hairstyling service, and pay a deposit for the appointment. The hairstyling service is completed at the appointment by a third-party beauty professional (“hair stylist”). By requesting hairstyling services through our platform, you guarantee that you are above the age of 16, and that the information you provide us is accurate, complete, and current at all times. The Site, which enables users to arrange and schedule logistics and/or delivery of services and/or to purchase certain goods, including with third party providers of such services and goods (“Third Party Providers”), is made available solely for your personal, noncommercial use.
Fees and Payments
We use Stripe, Inc., a third-party payment processor ("Payment Processor"), to handle your payment for Services. BeBlended will not have access to, nor store, any of your personal financial information. For questions about the Payment Processor’s privacy and security practices, please read the privacy policy posted by the Payment Processor.
You agree to pay all fees or charges associated with the Services provided by the Stylist, thus complying to the Stylist’s fees and billing terms. If BeBlended's Payment Processor cannot charge your credit card or other payment method for any reason, BeBlended reserves the right to cancel your Service, suspend or terminate your access to future Services. You are expressly agreeing that the Payment Processor, on behalf of BeBlended, is permitted to bill you for the applicable fees, any applicable tax and any other charges you may incur in connection with your selection of Services offered through this Site, and that the fees will be billed to your credit card or other payment method designated at the time you register for a fee-based Service.
Aside from the initial non-refundable deposit fee specified by the Stylist, you will not be charged for Services until after any Services have been completed. In addition to the non-refundable deposit, you are responsible for paying the Stylist the full cost of the Service. In the event you must cancel or reschedule any booked Services, you must do so in accordance with the Stylist’s cancellation policy.
Disputes Between Clients and Stylists
Your interactions with Stylists, including the performance of any Service or purchase of any product, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with those transactions or dealings, are solely between you and the Stylist. You should take reasonable precautions and make whatever investigation or inquiries you deem necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction with any third party, including the Stylists.
You understand that deciding whether to use the Services of a Stylist, or use information contained on the Site, is your personal decision for which you alone are responsible. You understand that BeBlended uses its best efforts to vet all stylists on the Site, but cannot make representations as to the suitability of any individual you may decide to interact with through the Site and/or the accuracy or suitability of any advice, information, or recommendations made by any individual.
You agree that BeBlended will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort whatsoever incurred as the result of any Services. If there is a dispute between you and a Stylist, you agree that BeBlended is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that a dispute arises between you and a Stylist, you hereby release BeBlended, its officers, managers, members, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, and successors in rights from any claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, foreseeable or unforeseeable, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such dispute or any Service provided to you.
Your Responsibilities
As the recipient of Hairstyling Services, you agree to assume certain responsibilities. When you purchase Hairstyling Services, you agree to comply with any rules or requirements applicable to the Hairstyling Service purchased, including as part of any confirmation email (the “Requirements”). Whether or not there are Requirements, you agree to: (a) create in your home (or other space where hair stylists booked via the Site are invited to perform the Hairstyling Services) a safe, clean, and reasonably comfortable workspace that is free of conditions that would make it difficult for a hair stylist to perform the Hairstyling Service (all as determined in each hair stylist’s sole discretion); (b) provide a workspace that has access to bathroom facilities and is in close proximity to an electrical outlet and a sink with hot and cold running water; and (c) refrain from, and prevent other individuals present in your household from any speech, conduct, or personal displays that a reasonable person would find offensive, intimidating, hostile, harassing, indecent or abusive while our hair stylists are present. If you have pets, you agree to confine all of your pets to a room where our hair stylists will not be working. If you have a child or children under the age of 13, you agree that childcare (provided by someone other than you and the hair stylist) will be present. This is important as the hair stylist will have equipment that can burn a child and the hair stylist will be focused on you. In any event, you acknowledge and assume all liability for the use of any and all stylist implements including but not limited to chemicals and heated styling tools. We reserve the right to terminate or refuse Hairstyling Services to anyone at any time in the event you do not fulfill your responsibilities as set forth in this Section or if a stylist feels unsafe or uncomfortable with her in-home work environment or conditions for any reason.
COVID-19 Liability Waiver
As it relates to the ongoing threat of COVID-19, you understand that after taking all precautions and making all efforts to create a safe and sanitized working environment for both yourself and our stylists, there is still a risk of being exposed to COVID-19 and you hereby agree to release BeBlended from any liability.
Supplemental COVID-19 Cancellation Policy
To ensure the health and safety of both clients and stylists, if you are feeling any COVID-19 symptoms or have tested positive for COVID-19, you must cancel your appointment. No notice is required however the deposit for the appointment will not be refunded. You will have another opportunity to book an appointment with the same Stylist at a future date.
Because we are requiring both clients and stylists to wear proper PPE during all appointments, if you do not have a mask and/or your stylist arrives without the proper required PPE, the service will be canceled and you will have the opportunity to book an appointment at a later date.
BeBlended reserves the right to revise or update this supplemental cancellation policy at any time, including to cover other pandemics or illnesses.
