Hey everyone

I’m so sorry that I haven’t sent out a decent news letter in a while but I hope this one makes up for it.

I can’t believe what beautiful weather we’ve been having and that it’s still so beautiful outside. Let’s hope we can have a few more days of it before the cold sets in!

So its mothers month and wow have there been a few new moms in my salon. Definitely was something in the spring winds last year

For those of you who have met my mom, she often helps with product delivery, entertaining clients while i’m still busy and helping in the background. Her name is Denise and I’m so very grateful to have her. Thank you for being easy on her, patient and helpful especially when booking treatments is involved. She often just takes the initiative and is not always 100% sure but she does a great job.

I think 2012 is definitely a Moms year and so I wish all my moms a Happy Mothers Day and Month, may you be spoilt and appreciated more than normal.

So not much news in the Salon, I have a few Annique Products that are still on Special, so don’t forget to have a look next time you in the salon.

Bio Sculpture Colours are now R40 so don’t miss out on buying some fabulous colours for winter, I have a catalogue and that you can order from, they have over 150 colours and I cannot keep all of them in stock but I can order.
Top coats are also R40 for the Month of May, normal Price R50

I am also continuing to grow my Gel colour stock so if you wish to have gel colour overlay R140 then please don’t be shy to ask what colours I have or if you keen on a specific colour then I can get for you.

GREAT WINTER ADD ON TREATMENTS

I know winter is a time that we wish to keep as much of us covered as possible but don’t forget that we shouldn’t neglect out toes, feet and hands either.

Mini Pedicure and mini Manicure are a great way to keep them soft and still looking good, and at R50 each they can be added to any treatment or done on there own.

Paraffin dip can also be added to any treatment for R40, and includes a scrub, rich cream application and the dip.

PLEASE NOTE:

I have limited space on a Saturday, as i’m not open every Saturday, and if by any chance you do need to cancel your appointment, I may not be able to help you the following Saturday, which means you may need to wait a few weeks in order to get another Saturday appointment!

Also this means that you need to book well in advance for a Saturday.

Voucher redemptions will no longer be accepted on a Saturday either.

Days that the Salon is closed:
Saturday 12 May
Sat 2 June
Tuesday 12 June
Friday 29 June
Sat 30 June
Monday 2 July

I use the Depiléve Wax system for legs and arm waxing and have also started selling their Intimate Folisan – a roll on gel that works wonders with ingrown hairs in the bikini and under arm area.

I have received great comments and happy results.

The 10ml roll-on gel is ON SPECIAL FOR R40 and needs only to be used until the hairs have started to push through the skin (roughly 10 days). As soon as the hair has appeared through the skin, stop usage until after your next wax.

Please enquire about the product when you visit.

For those extra dry and neglected skins, the ANNIQUE Miracle Tissue Oil is a great add on product for winter and any time. It’s a light oil so absorbed so quickly into the skin, leaving it feeling nourished, soft and hydrated. It’s great for uneven skin tone, stretch marks, and scars. It’s an excellent hydration product adding extra nourishment and moisture to the skin.

ON SPECIAL THIS MAY FOR R219 with a FREE 10ml Roll On

So have a super Month of May, I hope you are blessed and kept safe.
Look forward to seeing you and sharing some good laughs.
Thanks for all the support.

Love
Rowena

And so Autumn is officially here! I hope that you are making the most the beautiful evenings and gorgeous mornings that we’ve been having as soon the icy blue skies will be here.

Now is a time to start increasing that vitamin C and anti-oxidant intake to keep the bugs away. Remember green tea is one of the highest natural sources for anti-oxidants. Guavas, sweet red peppers and kiwis are high in Vitamin C.

Thank you for all who have been accommodating with my hours that have changed. It seems to be filling up the Saturdays I am open and the evenings too. Please just remember that Saturdays are now becoming fuller a lot sooner, so if you do need a Saturday appointment book way in advance.

I do only offer Bio-Sculpture gel as an artificial nail enhancement system. I do not unfortunately do acrylic or silk. Bio-Sculpture offer a whole lot of other products besides gel so it’s more versatile for me.

They do nail varnishes, base coats, top coats, files, toe separators and much more. If you wish to see there full catalogue just ask when you next visit, as they have great gifting ideas too.

I will soon be putting up a notice board in the salon, with current in-salon specials, advertising for those who run business or would like extra exposure and some news, so please take a look next time you visit and let me know what you think.

For those that have been for a facial with me, you know I use a machine called high frequency during the treatment. I just wish to talk a little bit more about it, so that you can be more aware of the effects, and reasons I use it.

High frequency has been around in the health industry for over 30 years, and was first used in the hair dressing field to treat scalp disorders.

The current of the high frequency machine moves a rate of 100,000 and 250,000 vibrations per second over the surface of the skin, thus the tingling sensation that is sometimes experienced during the treatment.

The Effects of High Frequency:

• Warms and relaxes facial tissue
• Improves skin texture and moisture balance
• Calms sensory nerves
• Produces ozone: anti-bacterial and germicidal removing the impurities on the skin
• Due to the stimulation of the fine nerve endings, an astringent effect occurs, reduces pore size and the appearance of fine lines.
• Improvement of circulation and thus the lymphatic system, reducing toxin and waste accumulation which in turn can reduce puffy, sluggish areas of the skin
• Due to increase of circulation product absorption is increased.

Reasons for High Frequency:

• Reduces oil and congestion on/in the skin
• Aids healing of the skin
• Destroys bacteria
• Stimulates rebalancing of the moisture levels
• Reduces inflammation and sluggish looking skin
• Gives the skin a radiant, clear and toned appearance

I also use the machine as it’s safe and effective with the Annique Products

I use the machine in all of my facials, except the Pressed Rose Facial in which I use my DermaLift machine, so if you haven’t already experienced it, Come give a try.

Please don’t forget to bring your loyalty cards to your treatments and if I haven’t seen you in Jan/Feb and you are a regular customer, don’t forget to get yours.

I will be closed on Wed 21 March (Human rights Day) as well as the following Saturdays so please take note and book ahead.

• Saturday 10 March and 24 March
• Friday 6 April, Saturday 7 April and Monday 9 April

Then also PLEASE PLEASE NOTE:
I did make a mistake with Sat 28 April (apologies), I will be closed but I will be open Friday 27 April (Freedom Day) from 08h00-14h00

But I look forward to seeing you this next month and please if you have any comments direct them to info@beautyspotsalon.co.za

Thanks
Keep smiling
Ro
