Massage

In the first 24 hours:

• Drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins released during the massage.

• Avoid caffeine and alcohol for a few hours post-treatment.

• Allow your body to rest and absorb the effects of the massage.

• Avoid strenuous exercise or intense activity for the rest of the day if possible.

• Have a light meal if you're hungry, but avoid heavy or greasy food immediately after.

• Note how your body responds over the next 24–48 hours. Inform me if you experienced discomfort or any unusual reactions.

In the next week:

• Some mild soreness is normal, especially after deep tissue massage.

• Apply a warm compress to relax sore areas, or a cold compress if there’s swelling.

• Light stretching can help maintain flexibility and prevent tightness from returning. Avoid overstretching or high-intensity movement.

• Incorporate regular movement like walking or gentle yoga to maintain mobility and muscle function.

• Consistency helps maintain the benefits, I may recommend a frequency based on your needs (e.g., weekly, biweekly, monthly).

Manicure/ Pedicure

In the first 24 hours:

• Wait at least 2 hours before bathing, swimming, or washing dishes; water can weaken the bond and lead to early chipping.

• Avoid heavy hand or foot activity right after your appointment.

• Don’t use nails as tools (e.g., for opening cans).

• Use cuticle oil and hand/foot cream daily to keep skin and nails hydrated.

• Dry skin can lead to cracked cuticles or calluses returning quickly.

• For at least 12 hours, avoid hot baths, saunas, or heat treatments.

• When washing dishes or using cleaning products, wear rubber gloves to protect nails and polish.

In the next few weeks:

• Use cuticle oil as it keeps cuticles healthy and helps prevent hangnails and dryness and promotes healthy nail growth.

• Don’t peel or pick: This damages the nail plate, contact me for professional removal.

• Book regular appointments: For ongoing care, book every 3–6 weeks, depending on your nail growth and lifestyle.

Waxing

In the first 24 hours:

• Avoid heat: No hot baths, showers, saunas, steam rooms, or sunbeds for 24–48 hours. Heat can irritate the freshly waxed skin and open pores.

• Avoid sweating: No intense exercise or activities that cause sweating. Sweat can cause bacteria to enter open follicles, leading to irritation or spots.

• Avoid touching the waxed area to reduce risk of infection.

• Don’t scratch, even if the area feels itchy.

• Wear loose clothing: Tight clothes (especially on bikini or leg areas) can cause friction and irritation. Choose breathable fabrics like cotton.

• Don’t apply perfumed lotions, deodorants, tanning products, or makeup to the waxed area for 24 hours.

In the next few weeks:

• Start light exfoliation 2–3 days after waxing. Do it 2–3 times a week to prevent ingrown hairs (use a gentle scrub, exfoliating mitt, or chemical exfoliant like salicylic acid).

• Moisturise: Use a fragrance-free, soothing lotion to keep skin soft and hydrated. Dry skin increases risk of hair breakage and ingrown hairs.

• Avoid sun exposure: Waxed skin is more sensitive—avoid tanning (natural or fake) for at least 24–48 hours. Always apply SPF if area is exposed to sun.

• No shaving: Let the hair grow to at least ¼ inch (6mm) before your next wax. Shaving can disrupt the growth cycle and make waxing less effective.

Tinting/ Enhancements

In the first 24 hours:

• Do not get lashes or brows wet for at least 24 hours. This includes steam, swimming, sweating, or washing your face directly over the eyes.

• Avoid touching or rubbing to avoid irritation or weakening of the lift/tint.

• Avoid applying mascara, eyeliner, or brow products for 24 hours to allow the tint and/or perm to set fully.

• No hot showers, saunas, or steam rooms for 24 hours. Heat and humidity can interfere with the tint or weaken the lash lift.

• Avoid oils and creams around the eye area: Oil-based products can break down tint and weaken the effects of a lash lift. Stick to oil-free makeup removers and cleansers.

In the next few weeks:

• Hydrate lashes and brows with a nourishing serum or conditioner (especially after a lift) to keep them strong and healthy.

• Be gentle when removing makeup: Use gentle, non-oily products. Pat dry instead of rubbing the area.

• Avoid waterproof mascara (for Lash Lift).

• Brush lashes daily: Use a clean spoolie brush to gently comb your lashes/ brows into place, especially after sleeping.

• Avoid excessive sun or chlorine exposure: Sun and chlorine can cause tint to fade more quickly.
