Frequently Asked Questions

General FAQs / Business Info

  • Do I need a consultation before my first treatment?

    • Yes, we’ll assess skin type, concerns, and identify any contraindications before starting.

  • How do I book an appointment?

    • Online only via the “Book Now” buttons, which will direct you to my Vagaro site. You’ll receive a confirmation email/text with appointment details.

    • Once you’re an established client, I can rebook your next service at time of check out, over the phone or via text if you can’t book online. This is because there are online questions at time of booking for new clients they need to read and accept. We also can’t take credit card info over the phone to secure appointments.

    • There MUST be a card on file when you book your appointment or the appointment will be cancelled. This is to honor and support our cancellation policy. However, you can use any forms of payment we accept at checkout.
