How do I request the Need more time upgrade?

Add a note when booking online or tell the front desk when you call. Clear instructions in your booking notes help us reserve the additional time requested before your arrival.

What does the upgrade cost and how long is it?

The Need more time Crown Care Service Upgrade is listed at $88 and scheduled as 60 MINUTES. Include this request in your appointment notes so staff can reserve the longer block.

Can I use the extra time for a longer scalp massage?

Yes. When you request more time, you may designate it for a longer scalp massage. Specify this in your notes so your stylist or practitioner can allocate the minutes accordingly.

Will adding time change my existing service price?

The upgrade is a separate service charge. It provides additional appointment time but does not alter the price of other booked services unless you add or change them at check-in.

Do I need to arrive earlier for extended appointments?

Arriving a few minutes early helps us start on time and makes the most of the extra minutes. If you expect traffic on Highway 71, allow extra travel time to avoid shortening your extended service.

Can I combine the upgrade with other Crown Care offerings?

Yes. Need more time functions as an upgrade to extend any booked Crown Care service. Indicate how you want the time used so we can coordinate the schedule and staff attention.

How Need more time works at Awaken Bastrop in Bastrop

$$MultiPurposeText$$

Learn how a 30 MINUTES upgrade customizes styling, energy work, and longer scalp massage at our Bastrop salon.

What the upgrade includes

Need more time is a service upgrade you add when booking: tell us in your notes that you'd like extra time for a blowout or extended styling, more energy work, or a longer scalp massage. This upgrade applies to an existing appointment and is priced at $44 for 30 MINUTES, added on to your scheduled service.

When you request Need more time, your stylist plans the extra minutes into the flow of the appointment — whether that's finishing an intricate blowout, spacing energy work, or extending a scalp massage. Downtown Bastrop clients often book after work along Highway 71; the upgrade makes evening appointments more restorative for commuters and visitors to Bastrop State Park.

How extra time shapes results

Extra time changes what your stylist can do within a single visit. Thirty additional minutes allow for careful drying and shaping, more time for layered styling, or a longer, focused scalp massage. Because Bastrop's climate can affect hold and texture, your stylist may use the added minutes to adapt technique for heat and humidity.

There are trade-offs: adding Need more time shifts appointment flow and may reduce availability during busy downtown events or peak hours. If you have courthouse business or a park outing, plan your booking accordingly. Your stylist will prioritize what matters most within the added 30 MINUTES so the service remains balanced.

Booking and arrival tips

To add Need more time, include that request in the notes when you book online or tell our front desk when you call. Walk-in and event-driven visitors to Downtown Bastrop often notify us the same day; for commuters traveling on Highway 71, saving the note during booking helps us plan your after-work slot.

Arrive on time so your stylist can use the full 30 MINUTES without rushing. Bring reference photos or clearly communicate pressure and timing preferences for energy work or scalp massage. If plans change because of festival traffic or park events, call ahead and we’ll work to reallocate time while keeping your core service intact.

If you love your salon experience and want more time for styling, energy work, or a longer scalp massage, add Need more time when you book. The upgrade is $44 for 30 MINUTES and is applied on top of your scheduled service, so your stylist can plan accordingly.

When you arrive, your stylist will confirm where to spend the extra minutes and adjust pressure or technique for comfort. If plans change because of Bastrop events or traffic, call ahead and we’ll do our best to reorganize your time around your primary service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I honestly cannot say enough good things about my experience at Awaken! 🥹 I have been to SO many different salons over the years, both expensive and inexpensive, and it has been incredibly difficult to find someone who truly understands what I want and can actually get it right.

I originally had an appointment somewhere else yesterday that fell through, so I called Awaken and Bennu, the owner, actually squeezed me in AFTER HOURS when they were normally closed. That alone meant so much to me! 🩷

From the moment I walked in, Bennu was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. He took his time, listened to exactly what I wanted, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. We had so much in common that we talked the entire time, and it honestly felt so comfortable and natural.

And the haircut itself? The best haircut I have had in YEARS. 😭🙌🏼 I walked out genuinely happy with my hair and finally felt like someone actually understood what I was asking for.

Finding someone who is talented, takes pride in what they do, listens to their clients, and makes you feel comfortable is not easy. I am SO happy I found Awaken and Bennu! 🥹🩷

If you are in Bastrop or the surrounding area and looking for someone who truly knows what they are doing, I cannot recommend Bennu and Awaken enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️...more

Christopher is just amazing at what he does!!! The most honest, humble and patience person I've have ever met and I’m just forever grateful for meeting Christopher!
Being a deaf client of his, this is the most amazing experience I have ever had! The communication is so clear whereas I struggled with the past salons I've been to. He listened to every concerns I had and he addressed what needs to be done! So if you get a chance to go, you will not be disappointed and leaving there feeling beautiful! This is the most inclusive place I’ve ever been too!...more

Loved the chill space, felt very down to earth and relaxing. My haircut by Rachel was amazing, she really understood my hair and she gave me a very precise cut that left me with bouncy hair. The shampoo wash with scalp massage was my favorite. Loved it!...more

I always have the best experience when i go to Awaken! My most recent appointment i went all out and we dyed my hair 2 tones pink and red and im so in love!!!! My hair still feels shiny soft and fresh even after being lightened in the fronts, no damage!! It’s been 2 weeks and my pink color is still vibrant and going strong!
Besides their amazing skill sets and ability to use safe healthy hair care products, you also get to know some amazing down to earth people that love to care!
PLUS The head massages and sound bowl healing during the deep conditioning will leave you so calm.
I’m so glad I finally found a salon i feel comfortable and relaxed in with people who provide so much positivity!

I could go on and on and on so you should go find out for yourself!! <3
Book the appointment, you’ll have no regrets!!...more

Best hair appointment since I moved from Houston! I have yet to find an hair stylist I can trust…until I met Chris. The whole experience is top tier. He is personable, kind, and communicative. He takes the time to make sure you have an excellent experience from the moment you step in the salon. On my second visit I decided to chop off what felt like 10 inches and I absolutely love it! Chris is truly an artist and has the ability to connect to a clients energy so they leave happy, refreshed, and better version of themselves.

Also, definitely do the hair detox when getting your hair washed. My crown chakra felt so cleansed and I was beaming :)
Thank you Chris and your team! Your have such a gem in Bastrop and I’ll keep visiting you from ATX...more
