Gift Card Redemption

Staff, Services, Gift Card Redemption and Prices are subject to change without notice!
This simply means that in the event you request a specific staff member, everything will be done to accommodate your request.  In the event an unforseen event precludes this requested service provider, we are stating we may have to change your provider.  While every effort will be made to advise you prior to your service, we still maintain this right. There is always the possibility you may arrive and we have not been able to advise you beforehand. 

In the event your gift card is over 12 months from the issue date and you have not used it, it will be redeemed as "Spa Dollars."  Even if the gift card may have written on it a specific service at the time it was purchased we will convert it to the amount of Spa Dollars initially spent.  We do not however give credits in cash, check or credit card.
Gift cards may be redeemed for services, service tips or boutique items.  We do NOT refund or transfer gift cards or gift certificates for cash, credit card balance or check.  If you have received a gift card or gift certificate as a gift, you may not transfer the gift card or gift certificate.  Any gift certificate which has the name of the client, patient, customer as the recipient will be checked to insure the person attempting to use the gift certificate is the original recipient the gift certificate was purchased for.

While we make every attempt to maintain competitive prices we do occasionally have to change our prices.  We will publish these online and will advise our regular clientele of the increase.  Every attempt will be made to our regular clientele to advise them before they have booked this service.

Securing Appointments VIP INFO TO READ!

We secure all appointments with a credit card.  Unless you are receiving gift certificate redeemed services this will always be the case.  This credit card is not charged unless you do not provide a 24 hour notice of cancellation or if you no show your appointment.  In the event you do not provide a 24 hour notice or no show the appointment, your credit card will be charged the full service amount.  In the event you schedule your appointment within the 24 hour window for your service and you cancel, you will be charged the full service amount. 

Securing appointments with Dr. Joseph for consultations will also be charged at a consultation fee of $50.

This securing of appointments is not based on the price of a service - it is our policy applicable towards all appointments regardless of their price.

If you are redeeming a gift card this securing will be waived as in the case of a no show appointment or not providing 24 hour notice of cancellation.  In the event the appointment is not met the gift card will be redeemed at 100% towards the no show or lack of notice.

Waxing Procedures

Did you know...

 

...that waxing is regulated by the state and there are some things you need to know BEFORE you receive waxing services?

The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) requires that a person hold a Cosmetologist Operators License or a Facial Specialty License in order to perform waxing services.   

Before you receive waxing services, make sure that:

  • The salon and the person providing the waxing services are currently licensed by TDLR.                
  • The person performing the waxing services washes their hands prior to performing the waxing services.
  • The person performing the waxing services cleans the area to be waxed on you prior to performing the waxing services.
  • The person performing the waxing services uses a new applicator.    

The same wax cannot be used on more than one client.  There are two ways for a shop/salon to comply with this requirement:

  • The first and most common way is for the person performing the waxing services to go to a central wax container and prepare a separate and unique container of wax for use on each individual client.     
  • A second method of compliance is acceptable for a shop/salon that may only use one central wax container.  In that case, each applicator must be thrown away after it is dipped into the container and applied once to your skin.  For example, one applicator must be used for your left eyebrow and thrown away and a new applicator must be used for your right eyebrow.

Ask the person performing the waxing services to make sure that the temperature of the wax is not too hot before it is applied to you.

If you have any doubts about the cleanliness of the shop/salon or their adherence to sanitation requirements for waxing, leave and contact TDLR.
