FAQ'S
Depending on the facial you could get one done as often as every week, but the generally recommended time frame would be every 3-4 weeks for maximum results.
A facial cleanses, exfoliates, hydrates & nourishes the skin by using specialized skincare products & esthetic techniques to help target your skin’s particular needs.
If possible come without makeup on, wear some comfy clothes, & get ready to relax. You don’t need to do anything special, including exfoliation before your facial, I’ll take care of all of that! We will assess your skincare needs together and go through a systematic application of revitalizing skincare products using the most advanced techniques to make your skin look and feel amazing. All you have to do is close your eyes & feel the magic happen. Do feel free to take a picture of the products you use and we can discuss how they may be supporting or detracting from your desired skincare outcomes.
Relax! Take your time getting up and getting dressed. When your facial is complete you’ll be relaxed and your skin will be rejuvenated. Based on what I discover during your facial, I may make recommendations for products that will support your skin type and desired outcomes. Do not exfoliate for 3-5 days after your facial as your facial will include deep cleansing and exfoliation, excessive exfoliation following your facial may cause skin sensitivity. Do not apply any at home chemicals or products for 12-24 hours after your facial, allow the products we used during your facial to achieve maximum effectiveness before applying at home products. Also, try to limit your time in the sun for the first 24 hours after your facial. Be sure to drink plenty of water after your facial to hydrate all of you!
My own acne was the reason I got interested in skin care and that has led to this career. Just a few of the treatments I offer that would best treat acne include The High Frequency Blemish Facial, The LED-Light Anti Acne Facial, & The Microneedling Facial. Many people also find deep cleansing facials useful to remove excess oil and impurities from the skin.
The best anti-aging treatments I offer would be The Blueberry Enzyme Facial, The Super Youth Restore Facial, The Microneedling Facial, The LED Light Anti-Aging Mask Facial, & The Gua Sha Facial. I’ll also customize a facial based on your desired outcome.
Yes! I use all natural and organic products and where possible, I use small batch specialty products that achieve exceptional results based on your skincare needs. I love using local products as well whenever possible, I’m a strong believer in supporting the local community and economy.
Depending on the area you are waxing, removal of hair by waxing can be uncomfortable but not unbearably so. Most people find that they adjust to the experience easily. I use a gentle,caring technique that minimizes discomfort. If you have a low pain tolerance, you may find taking ibuprofen about 30 minutes before waxing can help. Also, avoid caffeine prior to waxing as it can make your skin more sensitive.
Allow your hair to grow to about ¼ inch, about the length of your lower eyelash. You can exfoliate for a couple of days in advance to help reduce ingrown hairs. Ideally wear non restrictive clothing on the areas you’ll be waxing. You can wax if you are having your period, increased blood flow may make areas more sensitive. If you are getting a brazilian or bikini wax, please change your tampon before entering the room for your appointment.
I use both styles of wax depending on your skin and the area being waxed. If you have a preference, you can also let me know.
We ask that you please reschedule or cancel at least 24 hours before the beginning of your appointment or you may be charged a cancellation fee of 25% the price of your scheduled appointment.
If you are a new client, at least 15 minutes in advance of your appointment time to complete all paperwork unless you filled everything out online in advance. If you’ve done it all online or are an existing client, please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment.
It depends on the service, it is best to schedule additional services in advance so we can have enough time to complete all services. However, if there isn’t someone booked right after your appointment I can often add services at the time of your appointment. Also, I have a number of facial add-on treatments that you can add at the time of your appointment. If you are curious, just call or text me and I’ll be happy to discuss your needs or questions. Also, be sure to sign up for my newsletter and text messages, when I have unexpected openings, I’ll let you know there and sometimes those also include special discounts.
Generally no, because of the number of people who schedule with me walk-ins are not reliably available. I do have plenty of appointments available and can accommodate almost any schedule.
You can definitely call! If I’m in session I’ll phone you back as soon as I’m done. Booking online is very easy too. I understand that sometimes you need hours that are not listed or want to do something special, so just give me a call!
I accept credit and debit cards, cash, and Venmo. We also offer gift certificates if you’d like to give someone a gift.
