WAXING
-
You'll get the best results if you let the hair grow to about ¼ inch so the wax can fully grab the hair and ensure that the hair is removed from the root.
-
No need! We will take care of everything. We just kindly request that you arrive on time.
-
We ask that you wear a mask in your session to keep yourself and our team as safe as possible!
-
Of course! We can definitely wax you during that time of the month. Please note, that the area will be more sensitive and you may experience more discomfort than usual. For a smooth and successful service, you will need to wear a tampon.

Item descriptionWaxing is the process of hair removal. We use hard wax to effectively remove the hair from the root. Hard wax is thicker than soft wax and works by hardening on your skin.
Waxing lasts longer and will leave you smoother longer as unwanted hairs become thinner and in some cases don't grow back at all.
-
It depends on your tolerance for discomfort. Waxing involves removing hair right from the root. Don’t fret! Our licensed Wax Specialist will always make sure you're as comfortable as possible.
-
First, congratulations to you on your bundle of joy! Secondly, yes, you can still wax. However, you may experience more skin sensitivity due to the hormonal changes your body's going through.
We will always work to make you as comfortable as possible. If you're in the last two months of pregnancy, we recommend checking with your doctor first
-
You can still wax if you received a basic facial (cleanse, steam, exfoliation and mask)
If you received a specialty facial that includes, but is not limited to, an alpha (AHA) or beta (BHA) hydroxy peel, microdermabrasion or any other deep exfoliation treatment, then you must wait at least 7 days to receive a wax service.
Also, check with your doctor to ensure it's ok for you to wax after having any medical-grade facial treatment.
-
We recommend waiting at least 24–48 hours between waxing and tanning due increased skin sensitivity. Waxing exfoliates the skin by removing the top layer of dead surface skin cells. You may experience sunburn.
**And, friendly reminder: If you are going to go in the sun within 48 hours of waxing, we recommend wearing a sunscreen with an SPF 30+.
-
So sorry! We won't perform services on sunburned skin or skin that's irritated or unhealthy. When your skin has healed, we'd love to have you back!
-
It's best to refer to your doctor if you have any questions in regards to medication.
For prescribed creams like Retin-A or Differin, we advise that you stop use 7 days prior to your wax reservation and to not resume use until 7 days post your wax service.
**Note: We will not wax you if you're on Accutane. It's very dangerous to wax while on Accutane and a doctor's note will be needed to receive services.
FACIALS & WRAPS
-
The first step in a simple facial is to determine the skin’s form and condition. Steam, soft brushes, and hot towels are then used to thoroughly cleanse the face, hair, and shoulders. It removes dirt from the deepest layers of the skin without causing irritation.
Following shaving, the skin is toned with fine toners, and a facial masque tailored to the individual’s skin type is added. The final step is to add a hydrating moisturizer and make recommendations for skincare.
-
It is recommended that those who adopt a facial regimen get a suitable facial once a month for optimum results and a glowing complexion. The frequency is normally higher for beginners. Newbies can get at least two to four facials a week at first, then every ten to fifteen days as prescribed. A lot depends on the client’s age, skin type, sun exposure, and overall skin health.
-
Facials are the most effective therapies for deep skin cleansing. With the aid of a facial vacuum, some estheticians use essential oils to remove follicular debris.
-
As soon as possible. When your facial is done, you will find smaller, almost invisible pores, an even smoother and more radiant skin tone, and supple, hydrated, younger-looking skin.
-
Yes, it is true! Facials have the benefit of energizing tired skin into performing its functions. The massage and cleaning technique in a facial will cause your skin to target and heal certain areas if a congested pore needs to be purged.
A light breakout is still possible if you haven’t had treatment before or haven’t had one in a long time. An allergic reaction to our skincare products, which may appear as a breakout, does not occur in your facial. A rash will occur when you try a new product and a strong ingredient in it does not agree with your skin. Our therapists are well trained to recognize possible causes in your skin that could lead to either of these forms of breakouts, and we only use reputable products. Facials are intended to benefit the skin rather than damage it.
-
Since one size does not suit everything, there would be separate lines. If your skin responds to fragrances (even essential oils), you should use products that are free of fragrances and other harsh ingredients that have been linked to skin sensitivity. During your appointment, the expert will answer all of your questions and provide you a facial treatment that really suits your needs.
-
Depends! Some facials are painful, but they don’t have to be. You’re either someone who enjoys being pampered and letting everything feed you well, or you want us to “get in there” and clean out your pores. You tell your specialist what you want and plan, and they will tailor your care to meet your requirements. Even if it differs from one visit to the next!
-
Yeah, indeed. The aesthetician should make you fill out paperwork before performing any facial. The questionnaire will tell the aesthetician about your current drugs, skincare products, recent facial procedures (e.g. injections, peels, laser) and your main skin concern. The aesthetician will discuss the details you have.
Before beginning the facial, the aesthetician will conduct a skin exam to assess your skin type. Following the determination of your skin type (dry, oily, sensitive, mature, or dehydrated), the products used in your facial would be suitable for your skin type.
