Preparation for Your Appointment

• *NJ State regulations require a copy of “government issued photographic identification”, so please bring this with you to your first appointment. A VALID driver’s license is perfect! It is REQUIRED that a photocopy of this record be kept with client files per NJ State Sanitary Code 8:27-4.1, (c)1. 
   

• Please DO NOT bring anyone else into the studio with you. 

​

• If you drink coffee, please only have ONE cup the morning of your appointment.

​

• Do not take aspirin, ibuprofen or other NSAIDs for 48 hours before your appointment UNLESS IT IS PRESCRIBED BY A PHYSICIAN.

​

• DO NOT CONSUME ALCOHOL THE NIGHT BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT!
   

• DO NOT exercise the morning of your appointment.  

​

• If you have a joint or valve replacement and need to pre-medicate for dental procedures, it is advised to pre-medicate for this appointment as you would for a dental cleaning. Check with your physician if unsure.
   

• BROW CLIENTS: Please GENTLY exfoliate your brow area the night before and morning of your appointment. A Buf-Puf works best for this but an old washcloth works fine if you don’t have an exfoliating pad. **This preparation is VERY important.** If you dye your eyebrows, this must be done 2 weeks before your appointment. Do not tweeze, wax, or thread for a week before the appointment.
   

• EYELINER CLIENTS: Do NOT wear contacts the day of your appointment. Lash extensions and false eyelashes must be removed 3 weeks prior to your appointment. Lash growth serums (Latisse, Grande Lash, etc.) must be stopped 8 MONTHS before an eyeliner appointment. STOP using ALL waterproof eye pencils, eyeliner, and mascara 2 WEEKS before the appointment. Eyelash adhesives/false eyelashes must NOT be used for 3 weeks before your eyeliner appointment. ​​​

​

• ALL CLIENTS: PLEASE drink 2 large glasses of water the morning of your appointment. Hydrated skin makes the procedure go smoother! ​​​​​​
   

• It is recommended to take an antihistamine before your procedure and 3 days afterward if you can tolerate them. This is especially important for EYELINER! Any antihistamine will do. 

​

• STOP USING ALL anti-aging and other products that contain retinol, retinoids, any acids (HLA, glycolic, etc) TWO WEEKS before your appointment.
   

• DO not wear makeup on the area to be worked on.
   

• BRING a sweatshirt or sweater, a BLANKET, and a bottle of water. 

​

• Plan to be here approximately 3 hours; longer if a double service.​​

​

• Please DO NOT arrive more than 10 minutes before your appointment time.

​

• *Do NOT park in the lot next to the building.*

​

• There is ample street parking adjacent to the building on Route 29 or on Wilson Street.
