Should I have electrolysis or laser hair removal?
This is something we will evaluate together. The answer will depend on your wishes, how you removed your hair before, your medical history, budget and the amount of time you can commit.
Do you treat clients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) or other hormone imbalances?
Yes, I am experienced in treating PCOS-caused hair growth. It is possible to get your unwanted hair under control so that you don’t have to shave every day. I will create a customized plan to help reduce and eventually control the hair growth caused by the imbalance of hormones.
Do you treat clients planning on having GAS/GCS?
Yes! We will discuss which hair-removal method is best for you depending on the date of and extent of your planned surgery. There are two critical requirements to get ready for your surgery: 1) enough time to complete the hair removal 2) a guide from your surgeon that outlines the areas to be rendered hair-free.
What should I do between appointments?
Shave or trim your hair. Do NOT pluck, tweeze, wax, sugar, or thread your hairs between appointments. I know it’s hard! Wear sunscreen and stick to your treatment plan and you’ll be silky smooth before you know it!
Do you take insurance?
At this time, I do not take insurance but I can provide you with a coded invoice so you can submit it to your carrier. Just ask!
Do you accept tips?
Tips are included in my rates. If you want to do something extra, refer your friends and family to me. I also appreciate a positive review
What training have you had?
I graduated from the New England Electrology Institute with a degree in Electrolysis, Laser and IPL hair removal. I trained for a year in electrolysis and laser hair removal before opening Beauty and the Beas. Prior to working in hair removal, I worked in the fashion industry.
Do men get electrolysis?
Men also suffer from unwanted hair! I can treat your ear hair, nose hair, back or shoulder hair, hairline or shape your beard, knuckle hair, the unibrow–anywhere you don’t want your hair! Call me and we’ll discuss your needs and set up a discreet treatment plan.
Can you remove hair in a tattoo?
It depends on the tattoo. See Laura to determine if your tattoo is eligible for safe hair removal using electrolysis..
What is your cancellation policy?
We require 48 hours notice if you need to cancel your appointment. A cancellation of less than 48 hours will trigger full payment for the service.
What if I am late for my treatment?
Hey, stuff happens. If you are late for your appointment we will try to accommodate your full time slot. If we cannot, your appointment will be shortened accordingly and we must charge the price of your full appointment.
