Your Holiday Hair Timeline: What to Book & When

Let’s be real—the holidays are coming in hot. From last-minute events to cozy dinners and end-of-year celebrations, your calendar will fill up before you know it—and your hair appointments should, too.

At White Brick Salon in Brookfield, Wisconsin, we’re already seeing slots book up for November and December. So if you’re hoping to have your color, cut, or extensions ready before your next photo-op, now is the time to plan it out. Don’t forget we have a whole crew of asisstant stylists working closely with our team, so even if your go-to gal isn’t available, trust that someone on our highly capable team is!

Here’s your official Holiday Hair Timeline so you can stress less, slay more, and get exactly what you need to feel amazing this season.

Book Now for November Refreshes

This is the ideal time to get your first round of seasonal color updates—think deeper blondes, richer brunettes, and fresh glosses to revive your tone and shine. We also recommend brow services, add-on treatments, or scalp detoxes to prep your hair for the dry months ahead.

Pro Tip: November is often when clients begin to book their “holiday prep” appointments. Don’t wait on this—especially if you’re looking to get in before Thanksgiving week!

🦃 Thanksgiving Week → Plan for Maintenance or Add-On Appointments

If you already refreshed your hair in early November, this is a great week for toners, blowouts, or treatments. It’s also a perfect time to try a new styling service if you’re headed to a Friendsgiving or formal event.

Not sure what to book? Our front desk team (hi Bre!) can walk you through service pairings, timing, and stylist availability so you never over- or under-book for what you need.

Early December →  Color, Extensions, and Cuts

This is prime time for major services like:

  • Dimensional blonding

  • Lived-in color updates

  • Extension installations or move-ups

  • Signature haircuts

These appointments go FAST, so we recommend pre-booking before the Thanksgiving leftovers are even gone. Our stylists’ books are filling with both regular clients and new guests, and we hate having to say no when it’s too late!

Mid-to-Late December → Final Touch-Ups + Event Styling

Think of this window as your finishing phase—especially if you have Christmas photos, New Year’s Eve plans, or just want to end the year feeling fresh.

Perfect services for this stage:

  • Shine glosses

  • Root touch-ups

  • Blowouts or styling lessons

  • Brow shaping + tinting

  • Deep conditioning treatments

Bonus: Consider Booking with Our Assistants

Want to get the White Brick magic on a tighter budget or with more schedule flexibility? Booking with one of our salon assistants is the move. Every assistant is highly trained, already talented in their own right, and working under the close mentorship of our senior team. You’ll get the same warm welcome, top-tier products, and elevated salon experience—just at a more accessible rate. It’s a fantastic way to get in faster and still walk out glowing.
