Frequently Asked Questions
Why Threading vs. Waxing?
Threading is our preference when performing hair removal on the entire face because its thorough, yet gentle. We find it to be an excellent hair removal alternative for the most sensitive skin types. We perform our Threading only using 100% cotton thread. you are at high risk for injury with waxing if you are a Retinoid user, take prescribed acne medications, get regular peels, or have compromised skin. Threading removes hair from the root, but doesn't remove the first layer of the skin as with waxing. Threading also preserves the skin's elasticity, while successfully removing hair from the root.
How Much Do Your Services Cost?
We offer Standard Services, Combo Deals and Packages. The answer will depend on what you need and the frequency of your visits. Due to our training and many years of experience, our Services are priced as ‘Specialty Rates’. Combo Deals offer some savings if you prefer to come in ‘As Needed’ but Packages are the most economical choice. To find Combo Deals, look for the Services with ‘Options’ on our Online Service Menu.

Do You Offer Microblading?
Many people confuse our work for Microblading but we stay true to our conservative methods and do not perform any type of cosmetic tattooing or invasive procedures. Many people that are interested in it, usually don't even need it! Read our Blog Post, Microblading Truths to find out if its right for you! If Microblading is something that has crossed your mind, we encourage you to try our ‘Henna Brow Tint’ service! Its an excellent way to ‘Test Drive’ a tattoo without the commitment.
What Kind of Makeup Do You Use for Services?
Our kits are always evolving with prestige makeup brands. We currently use and retail Senna Cosmetics exclusively for Brow Services. For Makeup Applications, our staple brands have been Senna Cosmetics, Glo Skin Beauty, Ben Nye, Yaby, La Femme Hollywood, Smith & Cult, NYX, MAC and Too Faced just to name a few. If you have any brand preferences that we don't have in our kit, i.e., your fave foundation, lipstick or gloss, we'd be happy to accommodate if you bring it with you! We don't offer Airbrushing but we've been deemed as one the best ‘Blenders’ by those who've witnessed our work in action!
We understand that some may be concerned with makeup sanitation during covid-19. We want to ensure you that we are reputable for our clean kits and disinfection practices. We do welcome you to bring your own makeup products if it makes you more comfortable.

What Safety Measures has your Establishment Taken for COVID-19?
As Texas Licensed Estheticians, we prove to the state we can safely and sanitarily work on a paying customer for beauty services. Our license obligates us by local laws to have hospital grade disinfectants and practice doctor-like protocols for the protection of every consumer, even during pre-covid days. Because of this, we're already accustomed to strict sanitation and disinfection practices but we're taking it a step further by also thoroughly sanitizing our entire workspace with hospital grade and board approved disinfectants, before and after every client is serviced.
Since we must make close contact to perform our services, our hands are always clean before and after every service and do follow recommended cdc guidelines at all times. We also encourage safe distancing whenever possible and wear personal protective equipment for our safety and yours. Please see our Salon Etiquette and Safety Policies (located below on this page) to see how we're taking action and doing our part to keep our community safe and healthy.
