The best way to describe our Brow Lamination treatment is ‘a lash lift’ for your brows! This revolutionary new treatment involves straightening eyebrow hairs via a chemical process. This allows us to fix the hairs into a uniformed direction to create the shape and style you desire. The enemy of a Brow Lamination? WATER! (The same as with our Lash Lift treatments.)

We carry out our eyebrow and facial waxing treatments using either Hot wax or Strip Wax, (or a combination of both) depending on your skin type and needs. Proper aftercare of the waxed area is essential to keep you skin looking and feeling great, and to ensure you get the most out of your treatment.

• Avoid the temptation to over touch the waxed area after treatment. Touching can add dirt or oils to the area (from fingers/hands) and could clog the open pores, resulting in spots or irritation.


• Avoid spray tanning treatments for a minimum of 24 hours as your pores are still open.



• Do not apply make-up for at least 24 hours after your treatment.

• Avoid sun beds or exposure to direct sunlight for a minimum of 48 hours. This is so so important! After this time period, pay extra attention to the application of SPF, and we’d recommend going up a couple of factors.

• Make sure you are cleansing and moisturising the waxed areas in the morning and evenings using a sensitive skin cleanser and moisturiser.

• Do not apply Retin-A, AHA or exfoliate around the waxed area for three days either side of the treatment.

• Tweezing in between appointments is to be avoided to maintain the best long term-shape when it comes to brows.






From time to time we all need a little ‘me’ time, and our massage therapists can offer you just that! When it comes to aftercare post massage, this is something that is often overlooked. However, it shouldn’t be, As the massage process involves the release of toxins, it increases blood and lymph circulation and creates a cleansing process within the body. Here are our top tips for maximum wellness after your treatment.

• Drink water, water and more water for a minimum of 24 hours after your treatment to aid the cleansing process!

• Avoid alcohol for at least 24hrs after your treatment as massage is a detoxifying treatment and the combination of this with alcohol is not something we recommend.

• After the treatment, we recommend your first meal should be light to assist the body in it detoxification process.

• Don’t make any big plans! Get plenty of rest as you may feel tired after the treatment, this is perfectly normal!

• Gentle exercise is recommend after a massage. We recommend postural exercises to help with muscle tension as well as exercises that will assist with mobility. Yoga is a suitable and gentle option.






What exactly is Dermaplaning? We get asked this a lot! In short, it’s a procedure which involves the removal of dead skin cells from your face. Essentially, it is a form of exfoliation which removes dead skin cells, peach fuzz and unclogs pores. This results in, super glowy skin! As this treatment involves as blade directly onto your skin (don’t worry, its entirely painless) the application of the correct aftercare is super important!

• Drink water, water and more water for a minimum of 24 hours after your treatment!

• Avoid the temptation to touch the treated area after treatment. Your pores are open and any dirt transferred from your hands could cause irritation or infection.


• Avoid hot steamy showers or baths for a minimum of 48 hours. (cool to lukewarm water is fine.)


• Avoid sun beds or exposure to direct sunlight for a minimum of 72 hours. This is so so important! After this time period, pay extra attention to the application of SPF, and we’d recommend going up a couple of factors.

• Make sure you are cleansing and moisturising your face in the morning and evenings using a sensitive skin cleanser and moisturiser.

• Avoid using any products that contain Retin-A, AHA.

• Avoid overly hot baths or showers for a minimum of 24 hours, (cool to lukewarm water is fine.)

• Avoid spray tanning treatments of the waxed area for a minimum of 24 hours.

• Avoid the use of sun beds for a minimum of 24 hours as well as exposure to direct sunlight.

• To soothe and protect the skin, apply an antiseptic cream to the waxed area regularly for 3 days following your treatment.

• Moisturise every day after this to keep the skin supple and help new hairs to grow through normally.

• Exfoliate the area to ensure new hairs can grow through with ease, but please don’t be too rough as this can graze the skin and cause ingrown hairs.

• Avoid scratching or touching the treated area with unwashed hands.

• Avoid shaving the treatment area in between appointments as this can cause Ingrown hairs

• You will need at least 3-4 weeks growth of hair before it can be successfully removed by waxing. To maintain a smooth appearance, we recommend regular waxing every 4-6 weeks depending on ‘personal’ hair growth. You may notice a small amount of re growth after a week or so and this is perfectly normal. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives best results.

Please be aware that slight soreness, small bumps or redness are a common and perfectly normal, temporary reactions to waxing. This can occur after any wax but is particularly reported after your first wax. This should subside over 24 - 48 hours. If you experience persistent redness or irritation, or you feel unsure about anything, please do not hesitate to contact us.
