This was the deciding factor for me to have a second skin peel about 6-8 weeks apart. My daughter is getting married and I must look good for the photos because the last forever. I just had the second chemical peel done and it was as strong as the first one because I wanted to get rid of the wrinkles around my eyes and mouth. Wow, I didn’t feel the stinging as much as the first one and of course nothing happened as far as peeling the second day but the third day. Yowza! I was at work (I never recommend doing this during the work week if you work, save it for a Thursday or Friday and make it a Lifetime weekend and order in) and my staff looked at me and said you started peeling. I run to the rest room to check my skin around the eyes and mouth and sure enough I started to peel.
Chin, cheeks and neck were more sensitive this time. The rest of the forehead and nose and upper cheeks were peeled off in a day with no sensitivity.
As you can see in the photos of my cheek, eye area, and chin that its a bit rid. Of course I wasn’t a good listener to the professional skin care therapist and used another type of moisturizer. BE A GOOD LISTENER and use what she tells you to use. What happened was my skin was dry and tight like she said it would be and I needed to feel relief as I was peeling the dry skin off which was supposed to happen. Anyway, my skin felt like it was on fire so don’t do what I did. I endured that feeling the rest of the day and came home to rinse it with cool water. I applied what she told me to apply which is a Post Balm Lubricating Ointment that you can only get in our salon with the treatment. It felt like someone threw on cool water onto a flaming fire. Aah!!
It’s worth it! On day four of the second peel, my skin peel has been worth it and I will keep you posted on how amazing I will look by next week. Close ups taken with my phone..
I’m on a roll tonight. It’s 12:00 a.m. and my son is asleep. Everything is quiet and I was thinking about the hair fiascos that happen on a plane when one travels. I always look at hair when I travel and think about how I could transform someone with a new hair color or a haircut that would better suit their features. In York, PA at Indulge salon we have come across some pretty interesting mullets, short bangs with all one length (it’s not the cute kind) and other assemblies of hair creations. So my fave is the person that leans back has a little perspiration working in the back of their neck and of course somebody’s got the air blowing from the top of the aircraft onto your face which means that now you are going to freeze and so is your hair! hee hee. I just had to chuckle because you know whats coming! Yep, when they wake up from their groggy sleep, the haircut no longer looks like a work of art. it looks like a squirrel got roused up and was running around in circles at the back of the head in the nape area. Some hair laid tight to the head, some sticking straight up looking distorted. I can hardly keep it together here describing this. I have met some pretty dynamic people on my flights but I can assure you each trip is interesting. I always get the guy that has nervous gas. I want to throw up every flight. Although the last flight I was on was more pleasant than most. Professional, clean, and pleasant to sit next to. So the next time you are traveling give yourself a little fluff with the hand in the back of your head to unruffle the hair. Check out my video by clicking on the link here describing the salon and so you can see a picture of me. Video of me explaining the salon and what we do. Check out the long blonde hair model.
Butternut blonde with multi-dimensional tones throughout the hair tones
Look I can really appreciate trying to save a buck or two. Lately, we have had this huge influx of banana, orange, stripey hair that has graced our doors to be fixed into this lovely multi-dimensional hair color goddess. Truly, it is a gift that so many people trust us from their box color dilema to beautiful tresses flowing down their backs. It is not easy trying to dissect the type of box color used to how much to where they put it on and then their arm got tired of holding up the bottle and the applicator splattered everywhere leaving a trail for us to fix. Ugh! Hard for them and hard for us but we love fixing bad color jobs. This is a transformational opportunity for us to take somone that tried to be a blonde and they did their best “god bless their soul”. That saying is from our Salon Manager, Shane Parrish, in Greensboro Ga. He always says that when he knows that our lovely clients really need help. Here in the north we just chuckle and say that’s Shane for you. Then we get to work figuring out how to help our new blonde friend. Doing your own hair can be costly emotionally and financially. It is worth spending the money up front to get a great result rather than trying to do your own thing because in the end you will end up spending more money to get it fixed and then swear you will never do that again. I promise. It happens all of the time. So if you are thinking about it, just put the box down. I know the girl looks cute and her hair looks adorable and sexy and all that on the box but that doesn’t mean that when you put that color from the bottle that you are going to look like the girl on the box. The research and developers have stylists that work in a back room experimenting on different shades and different multiple processes with the box color. Most of these box colors are made with fabric dye. Yep! are you gasping yet? Also, made with metallic dyes which means its hard to get out. I can tell from my own experience that when I was a working girl in one of the those hamburger joints with the big W, I tried different hair colors such as black which I thought would wash out. Who knew that I would have cat black hair for 6 – 8 weeks and it didn’t wash out. I had regrowth of inches before it was slightly fading. Horrible. I felt like a tramp and not cute at all. I tried to play it up with darker makeup and then my dad would say you look like a raccoon. I cried. So girls, I understand when you have box color blunders. Since I’ve attended beauty school and attended many advanced training centers all over the world, I do not recommend the emotional toll it takes on you. However; when you get a beautiful color on your face that matches your skin and it glows, it’s worth it. Share your story with me at https://www.indulgesalon.com an hit the contact button.
