Cuidado y tratamiento de la piel y el cuerpo
Cuidado previo al tratamiento de la piel
Come in bare-faced - coming in with a makeup-free face will allow us to spend more time to work on your skin. Any eye makeup will not be removed by your esthetician to avoid irritations so please be sure to remove all makeup yourself prior to coming in. If you know you will have makeup on prior to your appointment, it may be a good idea to bring a makeup remover or wipe.
-
Know your products - know what products you are currently using. If you have a skin concern, we want to know what products you are using. Chances are something isn't agreeing with your skin. Make a list if needed.
-
Beware of big events - we recommend that you schedule your appointment accordingly. We suggest that you do not book a facial the day of or the day before a major event such as your wedding. Most likely your skin will be fine but let’s not chance trying something new before your big day. You are probably already stressed enough.
-
No waxing or shaving - No waxing or shaving 24 to 48 hours before or after a facial. Before will allow for a very uncomfortable experience that could include tingling or stinging. Afterwards could cause breakouts or worse, tearing the skin. Give your skin a few days to enjoy the fresh clean feeling before inflicting pain on it.
-
Beware of medication - we recommend that you discontinue the use of any products that will thin your skin such as Tretinoin and Accutane at least three months before getting a facial. These medications that thin your skin, can make way for some serious damage if a facial is performed before the skin has had time to rebuild to its natural state.
-
No sun bathing - Avoid sun bathing or tanning beds at least a week before a facial. A sunburn will make for a very unpleasant experience as well as defeat the purpose of getting a facial. Sun damage is the number one culprit behind aging so avoid sun worshipping and tanning beds altogether and wear sunscreen every day.
-
Exfoliate - Will you break out after a facial? Most likely, no, but there is always a small possibility a breakout may occur. Depending on the condition of your skin, if you aren’t used to exfoliating, any excess oil will be released after a facial. This may result in a breakout but don’t fret, it will be gone in a few days and your skin will still be glowing. On that note, continue exfoliating at home to keep the skin glowing and the excess oil from building up again.
-
Communicate with your Esthetician - Let them know what your concerns are and what you are looking to get out of the treatment. It's their job to give you the treatment you want but they also need to let you know what is achievable in the amount of time you have and how to continue working on this goal at home. It’s like going to the gym, a trainer can make you sweat in an hour but you have to continue going to the gym daily to get the results.
-
Be open minded - Be open minded and willing to make changes. You have chosen to have a facial for a reason and estheticians are there to help. If a product isn’t working for you, it's their job to tell you what will work best for your skin type. Estheticians are well trained in skin care and have great skin for a reason. They are there to share their knowledge, offer advice and make sure you continue to glow long after you have left the facial appointment.

Cuidado de las pestaΓ±as
Cuidado previo a las extensiones de pestaΓ±as y al lifting de pestaΓ±as
Con unas sencillas instrucciones de cuidado, podrΓ‘s disfrutar de unas pestaΓ±as nuevas y exuberantes. Para prolongar su duraciΓ³n, se recomienda evitar los productos grasos y tocarlas lo menos posible.
Si usas mΓ‘scara de pestaΓ±as resistente al agua, evita usarla 2 o 3 dΓas antes de tu primera cita. La pelΓcula que deja en las pestaΓ±as puede impedir que las extensiones se adhieran correctamente.
Acude a tu cita con las pestaΓ±as secas y limpias, y los ojos sin maquillaje.
QuΓtese las lentes de contacto antes de su cita y traiga sus gafas.
Evite la cafeΓna, ya que puede provocar temblores y espasmos en los ojos, lo que podrΓa causar ardor y molestias por el adhesivo.
PrepΓ‘rese para permanecer acostado con los ojos muy quietos durante 2 o 3 horas en la primera cita.
Las sensibilidades y alergias cutΓ‘neas son extremadamente raras, y su seguridad y bienestar son mi mΓ‘xima prioridad. Utilizamos productos de la mΓ‘s alta calidad y las tΓ©cnicas y protocolos de higiene mΓ‘s avanzados del sector. Sin embargo, Ash's Lashes Etc. no se responsabiliza de las reacciones adversas causadas por nuestros productos. Si le preocupa alguna reacciΓ³n, le recomiendo realizar una prueba de sensibilidad varios dΓas antes de su cita.
Por favor, asegΓΊrese de revisar nuestras polΓticas, que puede encontrar aquΓ.
Cuidados posteriores a las extensiones y el lifting de pestaΓ±as
Ahora que tienes las MEJORES pestaΓ±as de la ciudad, toma nota de estos consejos para mantenerlas y cuidarlas. Β‘Con el cuidado adecuado y los retoques necesarios, tus pestaΓ±as pueden durar semanas!
PARA LEVANTAR Y TINTAR LAS PESTAΓAS: evite los aceites y mojar las pestaΓ±as durante 24 horas. DespuΓ©s de 24 horas, Β‘las pestaΓ±as ya no requieren mantenimiento! Puede aplicar rΓmel y maquillaje como desee.
No utilice spa, sauna ni piscina durante las primeras 24 horas. Las extensiones necesitan ese tiempo para adherirse correctamente.
Evite frotarse o tirar de los ojos.
Β‘Evita dormir boca abajo!
No utilice rizadores de pestaΓ±as con sus extensiones.
Utilice ΓNICAMENTE un desmaquillante sin aceite.
Si tus pestaΓ±as estΓ‘n enredadas o cruzadas, usa el cepillo que te dieron durante tu cita para peinarlas suavemente y alisarlas. Β‘TΓΊ tienes el control!
Una higiene adecuada es fundamental. Por favor, mantΓ©n tus pestaΓ±as limpias con una limpieza regular. Tenemos un limpiador espumoso especial para pestaΓ±as disponible para la venta en el estudio. Β‘Con una pequeΓ±a cantidad es suficiente y te durarΓ‘ meses!
DespuΓ©s de ducharte, evita frotar las pestaΓ±as. Lo mejor es secarlas suavemente con una toalla y dejarlas secar al aire. Β‘Luego, pΓ©inalas para darles forma! TambiΓ©n puedes secarlas con un secador de pelo en la posiciΓ³n de aire frΓo, secΓ‘ndolas desde abajo. Β‘Esto ayuda a que recuperen su volumen!
Ten cuidado al aplicar cremas faciales y para el contorno de ojos, evitando la lΓnea de las pestaΓ±as. Usa protectores solares e hidratantes sin aceite. El uso excesivo de productos a base de aceite puede debilitar el adhesivo.
Recomendamos realizar retoques cada dos o tres semanas para mantener tus nuevas extensiones de pestaΓ±as.

Cuidados posteriores al peeling quΓmico
Immediately Post Peel
After receiving your peel do not use any skincare products that have not been approved by your licensed esthetician or physician. Your treatment was finished with GLYMED products that are safe to be left on your skin for the evening. You may start your Post Treatment Regimen (prescribed by your esthetician) the next morning or as recommended by your practitioner.
β
IT IS CRUCIAL TO THE HEALTH OF YOUR SKIN AND THE SUCCESS OF YOUR PEEL THAT THESE GUIDELINES BE FOLLOWED FOR THE NEXT 5-7 DAYS:
1. Do not do anything that will cause your body to become heated or to perspire. This may lead to inflammation and/or breakout (Exercise, sauna, hot tubs, hot showers, etc.)
2. Always use warm water on your face and do not scrub. Avoid chlorine.
3. You may or may not experience some visual flaking or shedding of the skin approximately 2-4 days post peel. The amount of visual flaking is not indicative of your end results. If heavier shedding is present, do not under any circumstances, pick or manually peel the skin.
4. You must take precautions to avoid sun exposure in order to protect your skin as well as to get the full benefit of the peel. Peels increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Exposure to UV rays can cause hyper-pigmentation, freckling and sun damage. We recommend that you stay indoors as much as possible and use your GLYMED Photo-Age Environmental Protection Gel (Broad Spectrum Sunscreen) SPF 30 daily and reapply every two hours.
5. We suggest if you choose to apply makeup after your peel that you apply minimal makeup and/or use a mineral-based powder instead of liquid foundation.
β
6. Do not use any glycolic, retinol, or Retinol-A for 5-7 days or until your skin is back to normal. This is the reason you are to invest in your home-care regimen prior or at the time of your peel appointment as your esthetician will give you a step by step routine to follow post peel.
7. For men, do not shave for at least 48 hours post peel.
β
SLIGHT REDNESS OR SWELLING MIGHT OCCUR IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE PEEL. THIS USUALLY GOES AWAY WITHIN 24 HOURS. SOME CLIENTS EXPERIENCE TEMPORARY SKIN DISCOLORATION. YOU MAY HAVE AN AREA OF SCABBING OR CRUSTING IN CASES OF SEVERE SENSITIVITY, THIS IS VERY RARE. IF IT IS BOTHERSOME YOU MAY APPLY AQUAFOR (FOUND AT YOUR LOCAL DRUGSTORE) TO THE AFFECTED AREA. CALL YOUR ESTHETICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF ANY OF THESE CONDITIONS DO NOT RESOLVE WITHIN 24 HOURS.
β
For best results, a series of 6-8 peels at 2-4 week intervals is suggested. Using the correct at home care regimen to keep the results and corrections on going is also suggested. Your esthetician will help you decide which program works best for you, as they vary based on skin conditions.
Cuidado del bronceado sin sol
Cuidados previos al bronceado sin sol (bronceado en spray)
THE NIGHT BEFORE YOUR TAN
-
Please shave a minimum of 24 hours prior to your spray tan appointment. All waxing should be done at least 2-3 days prior.
-
Exfoliate THOROUGHLY for optimal spray tan results – this is mandatory! This will remove dead skin and provide a new, smooth surface for your tan. Exfoliating helps to promote even coverage and lengthens the duration of the tan. Use a dry brush, exfoliating gloves and or a natural scrub sponge.
-
DO NOT USE DOVE PRODUCTS! Dove products leave a film on the skin that can prevent the spray tan solution from even and clean application. Opt for natural cleansing products that don't contain oils.
-
Moisturize any dry patches your skin may be experiencing after your shower but do not apply moisturizer to your entire body – this will create a barrier against the spray tan solution.
THE DAY OF YOUR TAN
-
Remove make-up, moisturizer, perfume and deodorant before you arrive to your appointment.
-
It is recommended that you wear dark, loose fitting clothing, such as a simple dress. Solution washes out of most clothing very easily but tends to stain nylon and Lycra materials
-
Decide how you'd like to tan. Many guests prefer to tan nude to prevent tan lines, however, those who do not typically wear a thong or G-string. If the latter is your preference, dark colored underwear and swimwear is recommended. *Pro tip: opt for a bandeau bikini top to avoid tan lines if you're going to wear your bikini during your spray tan!
-
A woman’s tan can be directly affected by her hormones. Considering her cycle, it can cause blotchiness or the color not to develop as dark as normally. It’s not common, but it can happen.
-
Bring a hair clip or hair tie to your appointment to hold up your hair.
-
If rain is in the forecast, bring an umbrella and be sure to wear a loose fitted long sleeve top or jacket, long loose fitted bottoms (such as sweats), and loose close-toed shoes (think Uggs, slip on shoes like Birkenstock Clogs, sneakers or Crocs with loos socks).
Cuidados posteriores al bronceado sin sol (bronceado en spray)
IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOUR SPRAY TAN
-
For REGULAR tan solution – keep the tan solution on for 8 hours to fully develop. Rinse off at 8 hours. For best results t's best to not keep it on any longer than 8 hours.
-
For RAPID tan solution – keep the tan solution on for 2 hours for a light tan, 3 hours for a medium tan, 4 hours for a dark tan and up to 5 hours for a deep/"ultra" dark tan. Our personal fave is keeping this solution on for 4-5 hours. The tan develops in real time so you're able to rinse off once your desired tan shade is achieved. DO NOT keep this tan solution on for more than 5 hours – doing so will result in change of violet tones that cancel out any orange hues. Beware!
-
Avoid wearing socks or shoes after your tanning session in order to allow the tan to develop properly on your feet.
-
Avoid wearing tight clothing; it's best to wear the dark, loose-fitting clothing you wore to your spray tan for the remainder of its processing time until you rinse off. If that is not feasible, at the very least avoid wearing tight clothing for at least 5 hours. This includes tighter-fitting jeans, bras, spandex, tight blouses and shoes/socks.
-
Avoid applying moisturizers or deodorants until after you rinse your developed tan.
-
All swimming, showering and vigorous exercise must be avoided as sweating can inhibit the development of your tan. All activities may resume after developed tan is rinsed after the designated develop time. Avoid sweating!
REMEMBER
-
As you rinse off after your spray tan develops, you will probably see some color wash off. Don’t worry. This is quite normal as it is only the color guide that the spray tan technician uses when the tan is applied. You will be left with a gorgeous tan.
-
Avoid using abrasive scrubs/scrubbers and exfoliants during your shower - this includes shaving (avoid it for at least 24 hours post tan). It's best to use your hands to apply your body wash! Pat dry or air dry your body post shower & MOISTURIZE!
-
Be mindful of your shower's temperature as very hot showers can accelerate fading of your tan.
-
If you plan to lounge, nap or sleep with your tan and you have light-colored upholstery and or bedding, be sure to lay down a dark sheet or blanket you can lay on to prevent the transfer of your tan. Spray tan solution is washable for most material but not all.
MAINTAINING YOUR TAN
-
Moisturize daily! This will aide in the longevity of your tan but also directly affects how your tan will fade! Hydrated, moisturized skin will allow for even, subtle, often unnoticeable fading of the tan. Dry skin will often appear "splotchy" as the tan fades.
-
Long hot showers, hot baths, saunas, hot tubs, swimming pools, salt water (ocean) can/will reduce your spray tan's lifespan.
-
Opt for purchasing our "Tan Extender" moisturize. It's a 2 in 1 after care product that keeps your skin moisturized and hydrated but also subtly builds color back into your fading spray tan! You'll apply it daily, or as needed, just as you would any other body moisturizer.

Cuidados posteriores a la depilaciΓ³n corporal
Para garantizar la mΓ‘xima comodidad y beneficio despuΓ©s de su tratamiento, es importante seguir estos pasos.
Evite aplicar calor a la zona depilada durante 24 horas. Esto incluye duchas calientes (el agua tibia estΓ‘ bien), baΓ±os calientes, jacuzzis, saunas, baΓ±os de vapor, etc.
Evite nadar en piscinas cloradas, rΓos, lagos, ocΓ©anos o aguas sucias durante 24 horas.
Evite tomar el sol durante al menos 48 horas. Esto incluye cualquier exposiciΓ³n intensa a la luz ultravioleta (UV) o tratamientos en camas de bronceado. TambiΓ©n incluye el uso de autobronceadores o bronceado en aerosol.
No hagas ejercicio ni realices actividades que provoquen sudoraciΓ³n excesiva (incluidas las relaciones sexuales) durante 24 horas. La transpiraciΓ³n puede irritar la piel reciΓ©n depilada.
Evite aplicar productos con fragancias intensas en las zonas depiladas. Esto incluye lociones perfumadas, antitranspirantes, cosmΓ©ticos y aerosoles de higiene femenina. Utilice ΓΊnicamente productos recomendados por su profesional, como Bush Balm Dark Spot Oil o Ingrown Hair Oil.
Evite usar productos abrasivos o exfoliantes fuertes en la zona depilada. Sin embargo, si tiene tendencia a que le salgan vellos encarnados, al dΓa siguiente de la depilaciΓ³n puede exfoliar la zona reciΓ©n depilada con una esponja vegetal o con el exfoliante Bush Balm para prevenir futuros problemas.
Un ligero enrojecimiento de la piel es normal y deberΓa desaparecer entre 6 y 8 horas despuΓ©s del tratamiento. Este leve rubor indica que el vello se eliminΓ³ de raΓz, en lugar de romperse superficialmente como con el afeitado. Por eso, la depilaciΓ³n con cera profesional dura mucho mΓ‘s que los resultados del afeitado.
Es normal sentir un poco de dolor o sensibilidad despuΓ©s de la depilaciΓ³n brasileΓ±a, y estos sΓntomas desaparecerΓ‘n en unas horas.
DespuΓ©s de la depilaciΓ³n con cera, use ropa suelta.
