RESERVATIONS:
In order to ensure that you obtain your desired appointments, I recommend scheduling your appointment as far in advance as possible to ensure availability. All first-time clients must book online. To accommodate your desired appointment a credit card is required at the time of booking to guarantee your reservation. I hold this information as part of my cancellation policy and only make necessary charges to your account on the date of your scheduled service. Details of my cancellation policy are provided below.
*Please notify me of any allergies or sensitivities to aromas or ingredients when you schedule your appointment.
CANCELLATION POLICIES AND FEES:
Your treatments are reserved especially for you. I value your business and ask that you respect my scheduling policies. Should you need to cancel or reschedule, please notify me at least 24 hours in advance. By booking, you authorize this business to charge your credit card a no-show fee of up to 100% of the scheduled value, should you miss your visit without proper notification. Late cancellation (less than 24 hrs notice) will result in a $50 fee. I recognize the time of my clients and mine is valuable and have implemented this policy for this reason. When you schedule your appointment with me, you are agreeing to these policies. All services require a credit card to guarantee a reservation so please have your credit card ready when booking. You will not be billed unless there is a cancellation or no show. Upon checkout, you may choose your method of payment. Please arrive on time. If you are going to be 10 minutes late I will need to make changes to your service to accommodate the time we have left in your appointment. At 15 minutes late we will need to reschedule your appointment. The full amount of your treatment will be charged as it is then considered a missed appointment. This applies to all facial and waxing treatments.
In the case of a pre-paid series of appointments, the missed appointment is forfeited.

Post Peel Help
It is super important to avoid all forms of heat, steam, or even friction against freshly peeled skin. As you can see here in the before picture below a lot of redness and inflammation showed up on her neck after washing her face at night.
My client used water that was a little too warm on her freshly peeled skin so I just had her use a cold wash cloth compress and had her lightly press it into the skin to take the heat out. This reaction on her neck is why you want to avoid all exercise or anything that can warm up your skin after a professional skin peel.
Post peel homecare will play a huge part in your results. So until all peeling is done with and there is no more itching, redness or sensitivity, you want to avoid exercise, keep hair off the face, use only clean pillow cases, stay away from hot foods, refrain from cooking over hot stove and avoid hot steamy showers. Wash your face with cool to cold water only and re-apply zinc-based SPF throughout the day.
Peeling is not the most fun, but the results you will get after it’s over will be well worth the wait.
Is Double Cleaning Necessary??
Is it really important to double cleanse my face morning and night?
Okay, I’m going to keep it real with you, I don’t always double cleanse my face in the morning but it’s super important to do it at night. I recommend starting out with an oil-based cleanser because your face gets dirty throughout the day. How many dirty things can you think of that you touch throughout the day and then maybe touched your face? Everything that you may have touched is now on your face and will build up alongside any pollution from the air plus your sweat, makeup, sunscreens and oil production, and our dead skin cell accumulation. All of this is occurring right alongside everyone else’s dead skin cells that they are shedding off throughout the day; 90% of household dust is dead skin cells!
Its best to start out with Dermalogica’s pre cleanse oil in order to cut through the layer of natural silt that collects on your skin throughout the day. Finish the job with the prescribed cleanser for your skin type.
Not only is this going give you really good, clean, healthy skin which will aid in the absorption of all the amazing ingredients from your night time skin products while you sleep, but it will also help stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage. You will feel less puffy in the morning because you have stimulated circulation, essential for nutrient absorption and waste detoxification.
If you have really oily skin I would recommend doing a double cleanse in the morning. User your recommended cleanser, with or without a pre cleanse
If you are only able to get a cleanse in in the morning, that’s okay!
