The essentials

At M BRUSH, in Lausanne, every texture is welcome: straight, wavy, curly, coily or afro hair. There is no texture supplement: the price depends only on length and on the treatment chosen. Manel welcomes you in her private studio, by appointment.

Finding a hairdresser who welcomes your texture without surprises or extra charges is not always easy. At M BRUSH, in Lausanne, the rule is written in black and white: every texture is welcome.

Here is what that means in practice: what changes the price, what does not, which treatments you can choose, and how to prepare for your visit.

What the House says

Manel welcomes you at her home in Lausanne, in a private space devoted to your hair. She welcomes straight, wavy, curly, coily and afro hair, with no texture supplement.

The price depends on two things only: the length of your hair and the treatment you choose. Your texture plays no part in the calculation. This rule applies to every treatment in the House: the blow-dry, natural curls, the smoothing treatment and the hair botox care.

Texture does not change the price: only length counts.

Which treatment, for which wish?

M BRUSH offers four bars. The durations and steps below are those of the House's own page.

  • The blow-dry: 30 to 60 minutes depending on length, with the sleek, soft and volume finishes included. Details on the blow-dry bar page.
  • Natural curls: for wavy or curly hair, we work with your natural texture, all included. Details on the natural curls bar page.
  • The smoothing treatment: 4 to 6 hours depending on length, diagnosis, blow-dry and irons included. Details on the smoothing bar page.
  • The deep Botox care: a hydrating treatment distinct from the smoothing treatment, around 2 to 2.5 hours, blow-dry included. Details on the hair care bar page.

Iron curls are an option of the blow-dry. To choose between the smoothing treatment and hair botox, our article on choosing between smoothing and hair botox sets the two side by side.

The blow-dry on curly or coily hair

A blow-dry temporarily changes the shape of your hair: it smooths it, relaxes it or gives it volume. It disappears with the next wash. For curly or coily hair, it is therefore a way to change your look for an occasion, then find your curls again at the next shampoo.

Our article on the blow-dry for curly and coily hair details what changes depending on the finish chosen. And if you want to keep your curls instead, that is the role of the natural curls bar, described in the article on the natural curls bar.

Preparing for your visit

The instruction is simple, and the same for everyone: come with clean, well-rinsed hair, dry or damp, with no product added after washing. No serum, no oil, no mousse, no gel.

You can also add the shampoo + care on site as an option. For a smoothing treatment or a hair botox, any preparation is a question to ask Manel when you book: she knows the protocol for each session.

For length, the markers are those of the House: the nape and the top of the shoulders for short, from the shoulders to just above the bottom of the ribs for mid-length and long, the bottom of the ribs and beyond for extra-long.

Not sure? Send a photo of your hair from behind: Manel confirms the right category before your visit.

A few questions to prepare

Before booking, three simple questions can save time, and you can write them in the booking note:

  • Which treatment best suits what I want right now?
  • Which length category am I in?
  • Is there anything Manel should know about my hair before the session?

She replies before the appointment. So you arrive with your answers, without having to explain everything on site.

Why at home

Manel welcomes you in a private space, at her home, by appointment. The slot you are given is yours: you do not wait, nobody goes ahead of you. For hair that asks for attention, it is a calm setting, designed for a moment to yourself.

Booking and coming

Booking is done online, with a genuinely free slot. Manel confirms the slot, with no deposit: everything is settled on the day of the appointment. The address is Avenue d'Yverdon 4, 1004 Lausanne, and the email confirmation gives you the directions.

Something unexpected? The appointment can be cancelled or postponed by giving at least 24 hours' notice. Clients from Pully, Lutry, Renens, Prilly and the whole canton of Vaud are welcome in Lausanne.

To choose straight away: Book a blow-dry, natural curls or a smoothing treatment.
