Policies

NEW MONKEYS: Upon booking your first appointment, you will be asked for a valid credit card to hold your appointment.  Your card will NOT be charged unless you cancel less than 24 hours before your scheduled time or fail to show for your appointment (See RUDE MONKEY below). Arrive 5-10 mins before your appointment.  This allows time to check and to use the restroom.

EARLY MONKEY: Arrive 5-10 mins before your appointment.  Who knows, you might get in early.

LATE MONKEY: If you’re late, we may have to reschedule. We run a pretty tight ship and one client running behind throws off the entire day and it is unfair to inconvenience an on-time client. 

HAIRY MONKEY: Please allow a minimum of 10-14 days of hair growth. We want to give you the best wax possible and if the hair is too short, we may ask you to reschedule.

RUDE MONKEY: If you are unable to make your appointment, please call to let us know. We understand that life can sometimes get in the way but cancelling your appointment with less than 24 hours’ notice or not showing is just rude and takes up a time slot that someone else might have enjoyed. If you are consistently a rude monkey, we will request a valid credit card to book future appointments. You will be charged a non-refundable fee of 100% of scheduled services for appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice or missed appointments. SEE UPDATED CANCELLATION / NO SHOW POLICY

NAKED MONKEY: If you find some missed hairs, we will clean them up at our expense.  Just let us know within 48 hours of your appointment.

NO MENAGE A MONKEY: We can appreciate that the first-time waxer might be nervous and would like a friend in the room for support or encouragement, but it is our policy that only the person receiving the service can be in the room. Our rooms are small and having a third person in the room interferes with efficiency and quality of the service. The ONLY exception is the parent / guardian of a minor being waxed

MINOR MONKEY: You MUST be 18 years old or have a parent/ guardian present at time of appointment. Also, we reserve the right to refuse to perform any waxing service, based on our professional opinion, as to the appropriateness of the service.

GIFT MONKEY: Our Service Packages & Gift Certificates non-refundable.

PAY THE MONKEY: The Monkey accepts Cash, Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express. The Monkey no longer accepts personal checks because of too many bouncy Monkeys.

FICKLE MONKEY: All prices subject to change without notice; although we have only raised our prices once in the 16 years we have been in operation. Actually, there are more ways to save now than ever.

MONKEY LOVE: Finally, we come in different shapes, sizes and personalities.  No hurt feelings if you want to change estheticians.  We work as a team or really more like a tribe.

SICK MONKEY:  Because our business is being up in yours, we appreciate your understanding.

  • Masks are appreciated when entering The Monkey. 
  • If you feel sick, with cold, flu or any other symptoms, please reschedule your appointment.
  • We reserve the right to decline services for any client that exhibits signs of illness.
  • We have always taken sanitation seriously, but we will be stepping up all procedures, including disinfecting reception counter, door handles, bathroom touch surfaces, writing implements, iPads, and POS systems after client use.
