Customer Information Just prior to or during menstruation, your skin may be more sensitive than usual and respond with more irritation. Do not expose skin to the sun/indoor tanning for at least 48 hours after the waxing service. I understand that reactions from a waxing service may happen for reasons unknown to the skincare professional. Client Signature: Date: What the answers tell you
limits regarding waxing; a week is the usual wait time for waxing after esthetic-level peels. Medical-level peels should not be waxed without the permission of the physician. Of course, any skin area with redness or irritation should not be waxed. Regarding when to have a peel after waxing, esthetic peels should not be performed for 48 hours after waxing.

Many salons have a manicure table on site. Now is an opportunity to pull it out and make money from it— manicures are back and making serious money. These manicures are no longer the quickie-under-the-dryer manicures. They are a full menu of treatment-based manicures that make serious money and are services clients will reappoint. They begin at $20 and go to as high as $35 or more for a half-hour basic. The cost is based on the salon’s location and the clientele. Specialty and treatment manicures cost more and are appointed for a half hour and up. Wouldn’t it be great to have some of those empty slots
