Lunar Esthetix

These last few days I have felt so incredibly overwhelmed and like life has just been out of control lately so I decided to listen to my therapist and focus my energy on things I can control — I’m not sure this is what she had in mind, lol but how are we loving the second update to the lobby? 😍🥰

The snacks are now in the baskets and we moved the fridge to more out in the open because a lot of you were unaware it was even there.

Now that my back and hips are most likely going to hurt for the next month 😂😭, I think we’re done for now remodeling but who knows with me — I may hop on here with a hot pink and leopard print bathroom!

Um, can we talk about how cute the lobby is after her little makeover? I am so so OBSESSED with the new chairs 😍 it’s so crazy how much bigger and brighter it is now. Definitely thinking about a new coffee table and updating our sip & snack bar 🤔

Don’t forget to stop and say hi to me and the girls, we’ll have some goodies for all of our beautiful brides 🤍✨

Hi loves 🤍

I just want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for being so patient, supportive and understanding while I continue making updates and changes to better your experience at Lunar — but also while I continue navigating being a business owner, learning the ins and outs of day-to-day operations, and balancing all of that with being a mother and wife.

You guys have been so amazing over this last, almost year — which is still SO crazy to say because we’re really coming up on Lunar’s 1 year anniversary 🥹🫶🏾

The constant love you’ve shown Lunar, sharing my posts, recommending me to your friends and family, leaving reviews, completing surveys and giving me your feedback so I can continue making Lunar everything you expect it to be… I notice and cherish all of it.

I don’t think I could ever fully express how grateful I am for the trust you’ve placed in me and this little business of mine. Lunar has grown, changed and learned so much in its first year, and so have I.

Thank you for growing with me, being patient with me and continuing to choose Lunar.
I truly, truly appreciate every single one of you

🤍🌙

I’ve been keeping a secret from you and I’m so excited to finally get to share it… 𝙒𝙀’𝙍𝙀 𝙈𝙊𝙑𝙄𝙉𝙂….𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘰𝘧𝘵𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘦 😂😍🫣

Everyone, welcome Mangomint Salon & Spa Software to Lunar Esthetix!

Mangomint is going to not only make our experience as your providers smoother and more seamless but it’s going to do the same for your client experience!

When I tell you, I heard you loud and clear… I mean it and when I told you I was going to make changes to ensure an easy, simple booking process, I meant that too! Here are a few examples of what you can expect:

1. No more complicated booking or going back and forth to add all your favorite treatments, services and add-ons. Now it’s literally as simple as: select your category, select your treatment or service, select your favorite add-ons, if needed add any additional treatments and services then book! If you’re a regular — once it recognizes your number it autofills your information!

2. As soon as you’ve completed booking your treatment or service — the forms button and screen comes up next. No more waiting for the text with the link or me having to scold you for not getting forms done 😂 and the best part THEY ARE ANNUAL NOW. Meaning do it once and as long as nothing detrimental changes, you won’t have to see that form again until the new year!

3. Forms are easier and very similar to the way they were in Jotform. No more gigantic paragraphs!

4. My absolute FAVORITE new feature? THE CHECK IN PROCESS! You can now check-in from your phone by clicking the link! No questions, no waiting and no more us missing the door ding because you snuck in while another client was leaving. Check-in with your provider and the app will let us know you’ve arrived. Once we’re ready, you’ll get a text and you can come back to our treatment room!

These are just my top 4 favorite things about our new software. I cannot wait for you guys to start using it and I truly hope you love it as much as we do!

The new software goes live THIS FRIDAY so if you are interested in booking, either do it before Thursday evening or wait until the software goes live.

As always THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

When I opened Lunar, I told myself I wanted to work alone. After a career that had been a little chaotic lol, I wanted a space that felt peaceful, gave me control, and left room for whatever I decided to do next. But life always manages to life. How does that saying go… “If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans”?

Kelsey had recently moved to the area after spending almost her entire career in Greene. The original plan was simply to give her a temporary space while she built a local clientele and figured out her next move. Vicky was a cosmetology student looking for hands-on experience in the esthetics and wellness side of the industry. Somewhere along the way, the three of us created this unintentionally amazing dynamic… and eventually, it just made sense.

So I am incredibly happy to officially announce the team 🤍

Three women-owned and operated businesses, under one roof.

I’m Shay of Lunar Esthetix, offering custom and corrective facials, signature brow artistry, body treatments and facial and body waxing. Kelsey of Massage Therapy by Kelsey offers massage focused on relaxation, relief, recovery and healing. And Vicky of Venus by Victoria offers custom facials, event and bridal makeup, brow enhancements and facial and body waxing.

What started as a space I created to work alone somehow became a space I genuinely love sharing with these two. We each have our own businesses, specialties and way of doing things, but somehow it all fits together. None of this was planned, and maybe that’s exactly why it works so well.

I guess Lunar had a little more room to grow than I thought it did 🤍

Hi,

With Lunan starting school full time in September, that means big changes are coming to my household — which also means big changes are coming to Lunar Esthetix too. 😮‍💨

Beginning in September, I’ll be permanently changing my schedule for a few reasons:

1. I need to be home to get Bub off the bus.
2. I want to be more present with my family.
3. I need to give myself time to rest and take care of my body too.

My new schedule will be:
Monday — 9:00-12:00
Tuesday — 10:00-2:00 & 4:00-6:00
Wednesday — 10:00-2:00 & 4:00-6:00
Thursday — Off
Friday — 10:00-4:00
Saturday — 10:00-4:00
Sunday — Off

Two late days for my late-working girlies and two weekend days for everyone who needs them. For everyone who’s already scheduled, your appointments are safe and you’ll be switching to the new schedule after.

Watching my babies grow up has really hit me lately — time is flying by, and I don’t want to miss any more of it than I have to. I want to be there for the after school activities, friends birthday parties on the weekends, family trips, sports, movie and pizza nights, and everything in between.

Making this change is scary, especially dropping an entire day from my schedule and praying it works out for us financially but I have faith this will all work out.

As always, thank you for your constant love, understanding, and support. You have no idea how much it means—not just to me, but to my family too.

🩷✨

If I was ever asked to show an example of how much I’ve progressed as a skin specialist and skincare mixologist, I’d show you this. This is trust, patience, care, love, consistency, ingredient education, pivoting, and time.

Hi loves!

I just received my email from the People’s Choice awards so I just want to hop on here and clarify a few things:

Lunar Esthetix is 𝗡𝗢𝗧 actively participating in this or any other contests or competitions currently or in the future.

And the simple, truthful fact is: contests like these bring the ugly out in people and I learned that the hard way last year. And no, this isn’t me being a sore loser lol. I am just not a competitive person, I am quite anxiety ridden actually and being in contests is literally my biggest fear and my greatest nightmare lol plus I don’t have it in me to tear down other local businesses to get ahead in the contest like what I was told occurred last year.

Simply saying: contests and competitions just do not align with Lunar Esthetix or myself in this new chapter in my life.

I am 𝗔𝗟𝗪𝗔𝗬𝗦 appreciative of the constant love and support you all have always shown me and my business, I appreciate everyone who took the time to nominate or vote for me but please this year and moving forward, use your votes to support other amazing local businesses!

Thank you
— Shay 🫶🏾💕✨
