FAQ's ABOUT MASSAGE THERAPY

How often should I have a massage?
Some people believe that one treatment is enough; however, massage therapy is most beneficial in acute conditions when used over a series of treatments and then followed up with maintenance or preventive treatments. I always advice after massage session to wait and see how you feel and how your body responds to the massage. If there are some really tight muscles that require more then one massage session, then I would recommend more frequent sessions at that time to loosen up those tight muscles progressively. I believe that anyone should get a massage at least once a month. Massage is great for the mind and the body and I believe it is a wonderful way to relax.

  • FAQ's ABOUT EYELASH EXTENSIONS

    Are Lashes safe?
    Lashes only use pharmaceutical grade adhesive which never come in contact with your skin. Synthetic eyelashes are adhered about 1mm away from your skin.

    How long do Lashes last?
    Eyelash extensions last through the length of your natural growth cycle of each lash, which is between 60 to 100 days. Touch-ups are recommended every 2-4 weeks to replace lashes which have fallen off due to the life cycle of natural lashes.

    Can I wear mascara on Lashes?
    The great thing about Eyelash extensions is that you won't need any mascara or eyeliner! Water-proof mascara is DEFINITELY not recommended.

    How do I prepare for the service?
    You should thoroughly clean your lashes with a mild cleanser. Do NOT use oily makeup remover to clean your lashes prior to the application. Lashes should not be curled or permed (unless directed otherwise by your technician) and all mascara should be removed. As the service is approximately 2 hours long, you can bring your own iPod or your favorite CD to listen to during the procedure.

    Can I receive eyelash extensions if my eyelashes are tinted or dyed?
    Yes, it is safe to receive eyelash extensions on tinted or dyed eyelashes. However, it is not recommended to tint, dye, or perm lashes while you have eyelash extensions applied.

    How do you remove eyelash extensions?
    Extensions need to be professionally removed with a special remover. Please do not attempt to remove them yourself as the glue is very strong. You don't want to pull out your own eyelashes while removing extensions.
