BOOKING, PAYMENTS, CARD AUTHORIZATION & CANCELLATION POLICY

By booking an appointment with EK.BEBEAUTY, you confirm that you have read and agree to the following booking, payment, cancellation, and no-show terms.

1. Deposits & Booking Payments

A deposit may be required to secure your appointment.

Current deposit amounts vary by service and may include:

  • CA$100 — Permanent Makeup procedures
  • CA$50 — Touch-ups and other applicable services
  • CA$20 — Brow & Lash services where applicable

The exact deposit required for your appointment will be shown during the booking process.

Deposits:

  • Are applied toward the final cost of your service
  • Reserve your appointment time
  • Are non-refundable once the appointment is booked, except where required by law
  • May be transferred once to a rescheduled appointment when the rescheduling requirements below are met

Applicable taxes are calculated based on the appointment location.


2. Card Verification & Card on File

For selected appointment types, including certain consultations, EKBEBEAUTY may require a valid credit or debit card to be entered when booking even when no regular deposit is collected.

When your card is entered, your payment processor may place a small temporary pre-authorization, typically around CA$1, to verify that the card is valid.

This temporary authorization:

  • Is not a service fee
  • Is not a deposit
  • Is not payment for your appointment
  • Is automatically reversed after the card has been successfully verified by the payment processor

Depending on your bank or card issuer, it may take some time for the temporary authorization to disappear from your account.

Your card information is processed securely by our payment processor. EKBEBEAUTY does not store your full card number directly.

Where card-on-file authorization is required, your payment method may be securely saved for charges that are permitted under this booking policy, including an applicable late cancellation or no-show charge.

By completing the booking and providing your payment information, you authorize the payment processor to securely save the payment method and authorize EK.BEBEAUTY to charge an applicable cancellation or no-show fee where the conditions described below are met.


3. Cancellation & Rescheduling

We require at least 48 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment.

With at least 48 hours’ notice:

  • One reschedule is permitted
  • An eligible deposit may be transferred to the new appointment
  • The new appointment remains subject to availability

If an appointment is rescheduled more than once, a new deposit may be required.

Less than 48 hours’ notice

If you cancel or request to reschedule less than 48 hours before your appointment:

  • Your existing deposit may be forfeited
  • An applicable late-cancellation fee may be charged to the authorized card on file where the appointment was booked using card-on-file authorization
  • A new deposit or payment authorization may be required before another appointment can be booked

4. No-Shows

An appointment is considered a no-show when a client does not attend the scheduled appointment and does not provide the required cancellation notice.

In the event of a no-show:

  • Any existing deposit is forfeited
  • If a valid payment method was saved when booking, EKBEBEAUTY may charge the applicable no-show fee to the authorized card on file
  • A new deposit, card authorization, or prepayment may be required before another appointment is accepted

The temporary card verification authorization described above is separate from any no-show charge.

A temporary CA$1 verification does not represent the no-show fee and does not limit the amount of an applicable no-show charge.


5. Same-Day & Short-Notice Bookings

Appointments booked within the normal cancellation window are considered short-notice bookings.

Because the appointment time has been reserved specifically for you:

  • The booking may be final
  • Deposits remain non-refundable
  • Standard cancellation and no-show conditions continue to apply

6. Late Arrivals

Please contact EKBEBEAUTY as soon as possible if you expect to be late.

Use the contact information provided in your appointment confirmation or reminder for your appointment location.

Late arrivals may result in:

  • A shortened appointment
  • Modification of the scheduled service
  • Rescheduling or cancellation when there is not enough time to safely complete the service

Arrivals of 20 minutes or more may be treated as a missed appointment depending on the service and schedule.

The full applicable service amount and/or booking policy may still apply.


7. Payments, Taxes & Processing

Prices displayed during booking are subject to applicable taxes based on the location where the service is performed.

No separate card-processing surcharge is added by EKBEBEAUTY unless it is specifically disclosed before payment.

Any balance remaining after a deposit will be due according to the payment instructions for your appointment.


8. No Refund Policy

Completed services and booking deposits are non-refundable except where otherwise required by law.

Permanent makeup, brow, lash, removal, and other beauty-treatment results can vary based on factors including:

  • Skin type and condition
  • Previous work or pigment
  • Healing response
  • Lifestyle
  • Individual anatomy
  • Preparation and aftercare compliance

By booking a service, you acknowledge that individual results cannot be guaranteed.

Dissatisfaction with a subjective aesthetic result does not automatically qualify for a refund.


GIFT CERTIFICATE POLICY

9. Gift Certificates

Gift certificates:

  • Are non-refundable
  • Cannot be redeemed for cash
  • Are valid only for eligible EKBEBEAUTY services
  • Must be presented or applied when booking/payment is completed

Unless otherwise stated, gift certificates are valid for 12 months from the purchase date.

Expired certificates may, at EKBEBEAUTY’s discretion, be applied toward a service at the current service price.

Booking with a gift certificate does not automatically waive booking, cancellation, card-authorization, or no-show requirements.

Missed appointments or late cancellations may result in an applicable amount being deducted from the certificate or another authorized payment method.

Promotional certificates may have additional restrictions and cannot be combined with other promotions unless specifically stated.
