FAQs - Waxing
Q: Does waxing hurt?
Answer: Waxing can be uncomfortable, but the level of pain varies from person to person. Regular
waxing sessions tend to become less painful over time as hair becomes finer

Answer: Hair should ideally be about a quarter of an inch long (roughly the length of a grain of rice) for
effective waxing. This allows the wax to grip the hair properly
Q: How often should I get waxed?
Answer: It depends on the individual’s hair growth rate, but most people get waxed every 3 to 6 weeks. Regular waxing helps to weaken hair follicles over time, resulting in finer and slower re growth.

Answer: After waxing, it’s important to avoid sun exposure, hot baths, and tight clothing for a day or two.
Exfoliating the skin a few days after waxing can help prevent ingrown hairs.
Q: Can everyone get waxed?
Answer: Waxing is generally safe for most people, but individuals with certain skin conditions,
sensitivities, or medical conditions should consult a dermatologist or doctor before waxing.

Answer: While the estimated age to start waxing changes from one location to the next, in most cases people start booking appointments after they turn 18 or in their early twenties. Most underage clients are between 13-15 years old and be waxed with parents consent

FAQs - Lash Extensions
​
Q: What are eyelash extensions?
A: Lash extensions are synthetic fibers that we attach to each of your natural lashes. They feel like a normal eyelashes but enhance what you have, giving you a fuller and longer look.
Q: How long will a set of eyelash extensions last?
A: The natural growth cycle of your own eyelashes directly influences the longevity of your eyelash extensions. Refills should be required every 2 to 3 weeks but this does depending on your daily facial cleansing routine and physical activity.
Q: Is mascara still required?
A: Augmenting your natural lashes with extensions elevates your lashes to a point that mascara is generally longer necessary. However, a water-based mascara can be used for those that would still like to add a touch more lift.
Q: Do I have to stop exercising once I have eyelash extensions?
A: The first 48 hours after having eyelash extensions are the most important. We ask that you avoid sports and recreation activities that cause you to sweat, and especially those taking place in humid conditions. Examples include but are not limited to swimming, showering, visits to spas and saunas, tanning. After the initial 48 hours you can return to your regular routine as the lash adhesive will be fully secure. It is still advised however to steer clear of high temperature and humidity saunas as they can loosen the adhesive bond premature.
Q: When can I wash my face after having eyelash extensions?
A: The ideal time to wait before washing your face and wetting your eyelash extensions is 48 hours. The lash adhesive needs that time to bond securely.
Q: How long are your eyelash extension appointments?
A: Full Set appointments take 1.5 to 3 hours depending on your chosen style. Bi-weekly refills take 60 minutes every 2-3 weeks.
How should I prepare for my visit to the salon?
Q: What causes adhesive reactions?
A: Allergic reactions to lash extensions is caused by an allergy to the main ingredient in the eyelash extension glue called cyancrylate. It is in every eyelash extension adhesive and it’s actually a reaction to the fumes released by the glue, not the glue touching your skin (because at good lash salons the glue should never touch your skin).
Q: Can you do a Lash Test to see if I will react?
A: Yes we can certainly try, however some clients will not show any reaction to the patch test but once the extensions are applied they can still react once a full set of lashes have been applied.
Q: What is the minimum age you will provide services too?
A: Should the parent agree and be present, we can provide lash extensions to guest 16 yrs old and above.
