HAIR COLOR
We recommend that you refrain from coloring your hair for at least one year after having your locs established. Semi-permanents and rinses are considered hair color.
If you are a new client, please note the following : - Vibrant colors require your hair to be BLEACHED first. - Dark to light colors should be done in stages. - Color needs to be refreshed every 10 weeks. -Blonds and platinums can be retouched every THREE MONTHS.
Colors on Locs require a 3-4 hour service and 3-4x the amount of color.
MARIJUANA
If you smoke marijuana please shampoo your hair weekly and use a citrus base or apple cider vinegar shampoo to remove the odor.
To protect stylists and patrons from exposure to harmful secondhand tobacco smoke and vaping aerosols, please do not vape inside of the salon.
MICROBLADING & SMP
MICROBLADING is a cosmetic tattooing procedure that fills in thin eyebrow areas to make them look fuller. Unlike a traditional tattoo, which is permanent, the coloring from microblading may last for up to 3 years. This is because microblading uses different tools and a smaller amount of pigment.
PREPARATION : Avoid caffeine beverages or alcohol on the day of the procedure.Tinting brows before the appointment.No tanning or sunbathing for 3 days before the appointment.No waxing or plucking eyebrows within 2 days beforehand.No chemical peels and other intense facial treatments for at least 2 to 3 weeks before the procedure.Wash and style hair before the procedure, as the brows must not come into contact with water for at least 7 days.
PROCEDURE :The process involves using a hand-held microblade tool with needles. Microblading involves breaking into the epidermis layer of the skin.
AFTERCARE: Gently wash over the eyebrows with a fingertip, using antibacterial soap and water for about 10 seconds, rinsing, and then patting dry.Use a minimal amount of moisturizing ointment.Keep the brows away from water for 7–10 days, which includes not taking long showers or swimming.Avoid putting makeup on the brow area while it is actively healing to keep the area as clean as possible.Not picking at the scabs.Avoid direct sunlight or tanning for at least 4 weeks after the procedure. Don't use facial scrubs or peels for at least 4 weeks after the procedure.
BEFORE & AFTER PHOTOGRAPHS Microblading artists will photograph their work before and after the treatment for many reasons including client records, insurance purposes, and social media. Before photographs are also necessary to assess the healed results during the perfecting session. We recognize the importance of protecting our client’s privacy and edit the photos to display only the treated area.
RESULTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED Healed results will vary with each individual client. The final shape is completely your decision, and the treatment will not begin until you approve the shape. While strictly adhering to the aftercare instructions is crucial, we have no control over the healing process and make NO GUARANTEES of how the healed results will look. The average two treatments is enough to obtain a natural result, but using a pencil or powder may still be necessary to achieve your desired brow. Individuals who are looking for a more intense result, must understand that it may require additional sessions (charged accordingly).
N/A
LASER HAIR REMOVAL
The goal of laser hair removal as with any cosmetic procedure is improvement, not perfection.Clinical results may vary depending on individual factors, including medical history, skin and hair type,patient compliance with pre/post treatment instructions, and individual response to treatment
I understand there is a possibility of short-term side effects such as reddening, blistering, scabbing,temporary bruising and temporary skin discoloration of the skin in the areas treated. Blisters/scabs/crusting may occur with laser hair removal. If this occurs, contact our office immediately and keep the blistered area moist by applying Aquaphor ointment. Blisters may take 4-10 days to heal.
If you have cold sores, you may have an outbreak with laser hair removal.
I understand there is a possibility of skin discoloration such as lightening (hypopigmentation) or darkening(hyperpigmentation) on the treated area. Pigmentation changes can develop even after several treatments and may last many months. Hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation can be permanent but is rare.Patients with darker skin can be more prone to pigmentation change
