Hydrafacials are out ~ a calm central nervous system is in

✨5 things you need to know before booking a facial with me ✨

1.) My #1 facial is the custom healing facial. When you hear the words healing and holistic most people think new age, crystals etc…. That is not who I am. I believe in Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The only “healing” that may come from my facials is from Jesus and Jesus alone. Every day I start work, I pray over my room. I asked for God to surround every corner with angels and for Him to use my hands for His glory. If that doesn’t align with you, then I’m probably not the right esthetician for you.

2.) Please don’t come for your healing facial with clean hair or hair you want me to protect from getting dirty or messy. Most of the time in this facial, I don’t use headbands. I feel I can give a better scalp and neck and shoulder massage without having to worry about keeping your hair clean. If that doesn’t work for you schedule, the mini facial.

3.) Please don’t wear perfume. I am highly sensitive to artificial fragrances. Being a Holistic Esthetician means that I use things that are only scented by natural sources, such as plants, flowers, and essential oils. Wearing perfume to your facial is highly distracting to me and to you. It takes away from the experience and the beautiful aroma of the product products that I will be applying to your skin.

4.) If you can, please take your jewelry off before you come. If you don’t have time to do that, you will have to take it all off before we begin. I know a lot of people have permanently jewelry and that is fine, I can work around it but any other jewelry needs to be removed if possible. You will have a much better massage experience without it.

5.) Please don’t ever apologize for not having shaved your legs, needing a pedicure or having makeup on. I do not care. Taking your makeup off is the first step of the facial and it is never an inconvenience for me. Please do not feel like you have to wash your face before you come in like brushing your teeth before the dentist, it’s not the same.😉

✨5 things not to do after a facial ✨

1.) Don’t sunbathe - your skin is going to be more sensitive than normal after exfoliating. If you do have to be in the sun, wear a non -chemical spf , and a hat.

2.) No hot yoga, sauna or sweating. Give your skin time to absorb all of the beautiful products after your facial, the goal would be to not have to wash your face that night before you go to bed. Also, sweating and extreme heat can be quite stimulating to the skin. It’s important to be very gentle with your skin after a facial for at least 24 hours.

3.) Avoid alcohol if possible. Alcohol can stimulate your capillaries and create redness in the skin. Try to keep your skin in a calm state.

4.) Drink lots of water. Massage stimulates your lymphatic system and your body will be eliminating toxins after your facial. It is important to drink a lot of water to flush the toxins out.

5.) Plan your facial after work or on your day off. Your nervous system is going to be completely calm after your facial. Don’t rush off to any stressful events that will take you out of this state of mind. Plan to go home, make some hot tea, read a book and have some quiet time. Your nervous system will tha thank you.
