Coming back from a set back

Due to the circumstances of Covid 19, the spa industry has been impacted tremendously. The cost and access of supplies, disinfectants and tools have gone up 3x the price and can be difficult to obtain. The time allotted  for appointments is longer due to sanitizing and multiple services at the same time are no longer offered.  The impact of social distancing measures that affect business operations are at half capacity even though the business expenses are the same or greater. Due to this we have raised our prices by 10% and charge a covid fee of $2 per client per visit.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you however we are working very hard through this pandemic to continue servicing you. We thank you for your continued support and strive to over come this by carefully navigating through the next couple of months. We recommend you pre book your appointments to prevent disappointment, kindly reschedule if needed for other patrons and follow protocols while in our beauty bar so we all feel safe. We appreciate and ask for your patience during this time. Stay safe and see you soon
