Small gifts are appreciated. Something simple that is personal means a lot.

Soap, lotion, simple card says thank you in big ways. The appreciation of acknowledging the work that goes into hosting a gathering is not a small thing. The cost of hosting an event, the planning of the event, the choosing of foods, the experience of the people attending all are important. Like Thanksgiving or Christmas we look forward to the smells, the traditional plates and accessories that all show up at the holidays.

Traditional gifting with small gifts of appreciation is expected.

Best birthday gift for your teen! Acne facial treatment
acne skin

acne, cysts on her shoulders and back

AFTER facail treatments

AFTER back facial treatments 3 months of specific acneic treatments. 6 months

Imagine how your teen feels when they look in the mirror and see this? Suffering from acne, cysts, blackheads, boils under the skin? Most teens have been youtube guided into how to take care of their skin. Even of they were by mom and dad, they probably wouldn’t take their advice right?

Next option is to the dermatologist for a solution to rid their teen’s skin of acne. They take the medications the Dr. prescribes but without results. I’m not saying all of the teens but we are seeing at the salon. Some teenagers have seen good results from seeing their Docs.  Many teenagers haven’t gotten a result.  Year over year, the skin gets worse. See my teen client. 

They would love nothing more than to rid themselves of the pimples, acne, cysts that plague their young skin. They are embarrassed that someone will see them and look at their shoulders in their tank tops. Their faces are cluttered with clogged pores yet the medication they take from their Dr isn’t working any longer. Mom and dad are concerned about the negative health concerns with the medications that are prescribed for the skin over the years. Liver damage anyone? We are talking 6 years of taking medication that would dry out the skin but wouldn’t take care of the acne or the cysts underneath that no matter what this teen did, they were were not going away.

What do you do when Dr’s advice isn’t getting a result any longer?

We have found a solution to help with the acneic, cysteic skin problems that are usually plaguing teens. They touch their faces at school, in the morning, on the bus, the school books, whatever they have touched during the day has compounded bacteria that transfers from one human being to another. Cysts are underneath the skin that are somewhat trapped. They fill up with fluid that is bacterial and can get hard under the skin that causes pain for our host (teen). These cysts aren’t just plaguing the teenagers, they can also become a problem for adults with acne prone skin. The picture of before and after demonstrates that after 3 months of rigorous cleansing, chemical peels and toning, this client go great results. These results are getting  better to the point the acne is now better managed plus we are working on the scarring of her back.

Our teenager says:

“I have been going to my Dermatologist since I was 10 years old. I have been taking medication since then but I don’t see a difference with my skin until I started going to Indulge Salon, York, Pa. She looked at my skin and asked me a lot of questions about how I care for my skin at home. After I told her, she explained a lot about different types of cleansers, how I could manage my skin at home to kill the bacteria and what we would do together as a team to clear up my skin. I could see a difference right away with how my skin felt clean. The other thing is that I used this certain Beta Green Tea lotion that I used at school during the day so that I didn’t feel greasy. I also stopped letting other friends touch my shoulders because I was taking better care of my skin. I love what my treatments do for me. Now that the cysts under my skin are going away, we are working on the scarring.” Private client of Kimberly’s, York, Pa 

How long does it take to clear up acne, cysts or clogged pores?

As long as it takes for your teenager to adopt to new habits in skin care such as cleansing with the correct cleanser. I can’t tell you how many times as a teenager I was using the same cleanser my grandmother was using. We customize the cleanser that will actually give you the clean feeling that you love to have. The next item is what we call a toner lotion. This will keep the skin clean from bacteria day while at school, sports, or at home. Can be used as often as they think about it. We have lotions that will brighten and lighten for darker color tones, hyper-pigmented skin, beta green tea that helps soften those harden pores that will eventually release those toxins.

We may use skin peels or called chemical peels to help remove excess build up of skin cells that are loaded with bacteria. I know that the sound of a chemical peel may sound scary however; when your teen has the type of skin that is bumpy and ugly. A chemical peel actually has the ability to add skin strengthening vitamins, proteins, calming agents to calm down the inflammation of the skin. For more information please read more here. 

Hand towels for acneic

Clean white hand towels

When your teenager feels like their face is on fire, we can calm that down daily with the corrective home maintenance along with your teen’s ability to manage the home care properly. We will be coaching them to wash their sheets 2x per week, their pillow cases every other day (mom buy more please to make your life easier), clean bath towel and wash towel daily. We will show your teen how to wash their face, how to cleanse properly and use the products we recommend. We are your back up support. You and I both know our teens never listen to their parents. We got your back mom and dad.

While your teenager is learning to cleanse their skin day and night while using the lotion, we will teach your teen to follow up in the a.m. with a blemish control lotion that fights off bad bacteria yet protecting the skin with a slight barrier. Lastly, we highly recommend using a spf of 15 – 30 to protect skin from UVA and UVB rays daily.

At night we will recommend a thorough cleansing before going to bed, toning lotion and utilizing advamced skin care such as Rhonda Allison skin care. We can add additional growth serum to help those cells turnover quicker which helps the older cells slough off quicker getting to the fresh cells. WE also recommend a creamy exfoliator to assist in removing the dead cells that block pores. All of the skin care is customized for the situation we are treating that day. We check back on our teenagers to see how much progress is being made.

Try one of facial treatments for the face, back, chest the month of July and August. They are only $65 for 35 minutes. These facials are power packed with this cool cleansing procedure we do to rid the face/back, of all bacteria. then we use a lotion, chemical peel or enzymes to input vitamins into the skin while it’s in its digestive state. Meaning our cells are like couch potatoes. We have to get those cells up and moving about to get to the surface of the skin making the skin look so much better.

About Hydra clean Facial treatment for Acneic, Cysteic or want pores to be cleaned out.

facial for acne type skins

facial treatment for acneic and cystic skin

Hydraclean is a 30-minute deep cleansing treatment.

Benefits

  • Deep cleansing
  • Deep hydration
  • Increases radiance
  • works on the T-Zone area with the electrode concentration
  • Kills topical bacteria

Secrets Behind The Treatment

Patented Thermoclean Electrode
An alternative to steam, this adjustable heated electrode allows the specific cleansing gels to penetrate deep into the skin. Can be used on the face, shoulders, neck and decollete. The electrode warms the skin at 119 degrees to soften the clogged pores. These clogged pores can be black heads, white heads (comedones) or just dirt and environmental dirt.

We will use a combination of cleansing processes to start the initial treatment followed by enzymes, masking then putting vitamins back into the skin. Lastly, our job will be to educate to protect the skin. We have a variety of treatments that range from gentle for the sensitive acneic types to the intensive thick coarse congested skin that may require a stronger remedy to break through that tough barrier of overgrown cells.

After we complete the specific facial treatment for acneic, we will prescribe the best cleanser, toner that kills bacteria throughout the day, lotion to make the skin feel clean and Daytime Defense with SPF 30 to protect the teens skin. We will schedule a second treatment in a month to come back to increase the strength of the treatments for a better result which is to get those cells moving from under the skin to the top of the skin. This gives the skin that “cleared up” look.

If your teen has scarring from years of picking and scratching and digging at the pimples, this process will require monthly treatments and at home care which our teens have seemed to embrace.

Deep cleansing gels
The Universal All Skin Type and Purifying cleansing gels are soap-free, and provide antimicrobial and hydrating benefits that are excellent for acne and cysts under the skin.

We will talk to your teenager about their skin and what “they can do to help themselves” on this journey of new skin. We have a few ideas that will help your teen get on board with their own skin. since they would love to have clear skin, they will do whatever it takes to see a result. This is not an overnight sensation however; results will compound once your teenager starts showing interest in their skin, interest in their surroundings at home. We can talk on that later.

Contact us for your teenager to have a Teenager Facial treatments customized for their skin. Ask for the Tuscany, Tahiti or Maui facial treatment. Call 717.846.4424 or schedule online here.

Ingrown hairs can get infected. Are yours?

At Indulge Salon, York, Pa, we have waxed many clients that have received ingrown hairs from other salons, shaving situations and infected follicles from improper shaving or improper at home waxing techniques.

Indulge Salon is the go-to place to have the those ingrown hairs go away

What makes Indulge Salon a special place to have your brazilian waxing done or full body waxing done? We take the time to discuss the types of wax we use for different textures of hair. Sometimes it will be appropriate to use a soft hard wax for sensitive skin. Other times will warrant the blue metallica wax akin to getting rid of the  those short stubby hairs that don’t want to leave really need a hard wax that is superior to the soft waxes. The hard wax will take hold of the shorter hairs that can be stubborn.

Before we even get into the waxing treatment room, we will have  discussion on what you are looking for as a result of your waxing session. We take a look at the areas that are being discussed and the maintenance. We talk about beauty budget because if someone is not quite sure they want to have it done, cost may be a factor if they grow hair quickly.

Our technicians always sanitize the hands before we start on the areas that need waxed such as brazilian. You know that you like to touch and we won’t give bacteria a chance while we are in charge of your waxing session. We will evaluate the areas in question to get our game plan down because of the direction of the hairs and the type of wax used, we need to ensure we are removing your hair the best way possible to prevent ingrown hairs.

You see, ingrown hairs come from the hair growing out, turning around and could go back inside the hair follicle. Some of those hairs may become infected if they are not treated with care. Here are some suggestions to prevent ingrown hairs:

  1. wear clean panties daily. If you have cysts or pimples or ingrown hairs in the pubic area, wear white undies that are bleached and clean. The more frequent changes the better. the thongs could irritate a freshly waxed area. Colored dies in the panties could irritate the skin.
  2. no “indoor sports” after a waxing session, especially brazilian or the full undercarriage area. Prevents disease being spread and bacteria from all fluids Just save this for the next day.
  3. Use our Indulge Pure Originals Almond Milk and Honey Oatmeal Soap. This almond milk and honey oatmeal bar will gently exfoliate daily without feeling
    Almond milk and honey oatmeal  soap for ingrown hairs

    https://indulgepureoriginals.com/almond-milk-honey/

    like you are tearing up the skin, or causing abrasions from over cleansing Over cleansing the skin will happen if you are trying to keep pimples or cysts at bay. Scrub in circles with the soap which help assist in lifting the individual hairs away from the original follicle.

  4. Use the dry brush before you step into the shower. The dry brush bristles are gentle enough to lift the hairs away from the follicle preventing the hair from growing back inside the hair follicle.
  5. The biggest prevention we have experienced with our clients is to use our Indulge Pure Originals Body Butter Bar. Basically it is a moisturizing lotion bar that will moisturize and soften the skin and the hairs therefore preventing them from ingrown hair status. We can say with certainty that when a client comes in with several ingrown hairs, we can get that reduced to zero usually but 1-2 from the first appointment to second appointment. We are happy for our clients that achieve these types of results.

Want to try waxing your baby belly but not sure? Read on..
After result of armpit waxing

After armpit waxing 1st time

Not sure about waxing your baby belly mom-to-be? Want to have a brazilian “down” there but not sure? We have the solutions to give you confidence “down there” and protect your baby belly while being sanitary for a safe entry for your baby.

Many mom’s-to-be want to have their entire body waxed prior to 28 weeks because they are uncomfortable moving around to shave or to reach their private bits. Armpits, legs, brazilian, bikini, facial hair can be daunting when pregnant because the hormones are leveled high in testosterone. Where to go? Indulge Salon York Pa of course.

Is waxing my baby belly safe for baby?

We have been waxing for years with the best waxing products available on the market along with the best techniques. Not all baby belly’s are created equal meaning not every mom-to-be has zero hair on their belly. Many women of ethnic backgrounds have more testosterone during pregnancy. The hair grows crazy over the belly down the mother’s line and of course “down there”. We have specialists that wax baby belly’s that are sanitary and comfortable for moms-to-be. Baby is not affected, the wax is not hot but comfortable and soothing. We aren’t pushing hard on the baby belly, we are gently moving and gliding the wax or strip in the direction is has to go.  Sort of fun if you can imagine it that way. We apply with a spatula type of stick then let it cool and peel off. Other types for those pesky hairs that don’t want to be removed because they are textured and coarse will have to be removed with a strip wax. The strip wax is applied and not cooled but a waxing strip is applied then peeled off. This is brisker but the baby might like all that activity. the baby belly may move around as we work the baby belly. Afterwards we massage your baby belly which feels really good and relaxing. It’s not a long massage however; we remove the excess wax if there is any and just relax you and baby.

Our private room is designed for private conversations around brazilian waxing which I am a fan of because we have to talk about private areas and how the different type of waxes work and how we wax you and your baby belly. We have a variety that are smooth and conditioning, we have other types of waxes that are hard wax that peels off by itself yet it won’t pull on the skin just the hair pulling those stubborn hairs out that need to come out. If you know how you feel with hair that is running rampant over your body then you know what I’m talking about. Your skin is stretched so far out in front with your baby belly you can’t see to shave with the razor any longer and the field has been left go. We have to pull those wild weeds to make it safe for your baby to enter this world. Safely.

Can you wax other parts of my body like my nipples that are hairy?

This is Kimberly, owner of Indulge Salons York, Pa. I have been waxing moms-to-be to help them feel safe and cleaned up before going into delivery with their babies. These moms-to-be do not like being bedraggled with un-groomed hairs that need to have managed. We can wax your underarms, your chest, nipples, baby belly, buttocks, legs, arms, back neck and face. Did I miss anything? Hair free mom-to-be! This process may take a few hours depending on how much you need done but rest assured you can potty any time you like and we will keep you hydrated during the process.

You see, the razor causes small hairline cuts into the skin therefore; could cause intestinal problems, ingrown hairs, unsanitary problems for the baby if the razor was old and sitting in the shower. I have many Dr’s that are clients in our salon that talk about many of the issues that we just talked about here. Ladies and moms-to-be, be so careful before you deliver your baby. No need to take the chance of giving your baby a bacterial infection when this can be prevented. We can do a brazilian  1 – 2 weeks before you deliver giving you a clean under carriage from front to back. Moms-to-be don’t have worry about the nurse attending shaving you, you don’t have to worry about bacteria or hairline cuts on the labia and you can feel confident you are good to go for about 4 weeks till you need to go back in for maintenance again. Believe me, we would love to see your baby and you healthy.

Think about this the next time you shave with that old razor. We also have vegan Oatmeal soap that is made with goats milk and is more of a gentler soap preferred over harsh chemicals in the soaps bought in grocery or drug stores. We know what is in our soaps and lotions bars that are healthy, prevent ingrown hairs and moisturize the skin.

If your skin has gotten so much dryer during your pregnancy, try the Indulge Pure Originals lotion bar that is designed for a woman’s hand to glide over her baby belly. 

Use in the shower after washing with the Indulge Pure Originals soap, apply while wet (in the shower) hold under the warm water and glide over your baby belly. You will love the feeling and this lotion bar can be used on your entire body. Remember to pat dry not rub off your lotion that you just applied. Turn off the water and be careful stepping out of the shower mom-to-be. If interested go here.

We have a fabulous new magazine that we launched for 2018 called Lathered, scubbed, rinse you can read here

You can learn so many ideas about your health and contributors that are interested in your health and well being overall from vitamins, exercise, energy, etc. Enjoy its free!

Tired of shaving every single day? Try underarm waxing.
AFTER underarm waxing

AFTER underarm waxing

If you have been shaving for 20 years, yes, one more day is to much. You might not be able to see as well as you once have so save time and money by being waxed by a professional.  Give underarm waxing a try. It’s quick, not painless but after the initial peeling off of the wax, it is so worth it. Haven’t shaved for 3 weeks and still looks great.

Yes, you say, then book here. 10 minutes and done over lunch.

Underarm waxing BEFORE

BEFORE underarm waxing

I decided to go native for a few months to prepare for my underarm waxing for the first time in my life.  Native meaning not shaving for a few months. Growing up we were taught hygiene habits of shaving every day although I didn’t enjoy shaving every day my hair doesn’t grow quickly. By looking at the photo it certainly looks like a furry animal!

I have to be honest, I was getting  uncomfortable with the length of my underarm hairs. I was cautious to not lift my arms up to far for fear that the longer hairs would dart out beneath the short sleeves of my shirt at work.

I was told by  our waxing professional at our South George Street location,  that the hair only needs to be as long as a piece of rice. Preferably 3 weeks of growth.

I visually understood that but mine was a pinch longer!  She told me that she would trim it down to the right length to make it easier to wax. The longer the hair means more painful! She makes it easy to understand and I felt totally comfortable with her approach. She analyzed my underarm hairs to see which way to start the waxing.  You have to understand the hairs have separate growth patterns that have to be handled differently. Waxing the wrong direction could cause ingrown hairs.

The type of wax used is important. She told me that hard wax is applied, left to cool, then peeled off quickly. Strip wax is wax that is softer that has to have a muslin strip applied on top then the waxed is peeled off. Take into consideration the types of waxes such as soft, hard, olive oil moisturizing, beeswax, lavender and so on. The harder waxes are generally used for coarser hair that is hard to remove.

I learned that the hair grows at different rates too. When the underarm waxing is done the first time after you have just shaved, some of the hairs will emerge after a week that were just under the skin. The 2nd underarm waxing will be more successful taking more hair out thus getting into a routine of waxing.

She sanitized, she applied the wax and gave it a rip! Wow……little more than pulling a bandaid off but truly, it was worth it. I said let’s get to the next one. I was done in less than 10 minutes. Love it and will do it again. Perfect timing for over lunch.  My recommendation is to make sure you wear something loose fitting. The underarms feel “warm” to the touch but she had a cooling agent that cooled own the fires from my first time.

I set up my appointment within 2 – 3 weeks to make sure I had my consistent appointment to prevent ingrown hairs, stay in a routine because to me, shaving was not worth it but waxing the underarms saved me time which is worth it.

Feel free to make an appointment online by clicking here  for your appointment for underarm waxing, body waxing, brazilian for both men and women, bikini and facial waxing.

As a side note before you actually wax, make sure you tell the front desk coordinator at Indulge Salon how long its been since you had been waxed in order to book you properly. If you are having your first time bikini or brazilian wax (front to back taking it all off) please tell them to allow some extra time.If you are booking onine, please book multiple waxing services.  If you decide to be brave by having your
tell them Kimberly sent you. If you have questions call 717-846-4424. Our staff is educated on waxing proceduresd.

Brazilian and Bikini Waxing

Brazilian and Bikini Waxing

Indulge salon  is booking up for brazilian waxing, bikini, full body, and facial waxing at our South George Street location. Even under the arms! I had my done for the first time. I started off with the right underarm. I was a little embarassed since this was my first time. Initially the grow out was native for me. I didn’t dare wear short sleeves until I had them waxed.  The experience was awesome. The result was zero shaving for 3 weeks. I was hooked!

This summer has been the busiest with waxing services since we opened in 1992. We have brought on some new staff to meet your body waxing needs, facials for both men and women and chemical peels.

First time brazilian/bikini waxing? No worries, we got this!

If this is your first time, we will help you get comfortable by escorting you to a private room. Wear loose fitting clothes for your comfort for afterewards. All of your bits will be covered until needed. We have a numbing agent that can help your first time be more comfortable.  We will have you lie back on your back utilizing one leg at a time, then the other then the “down there” area. Brazilian waxing means removing all of the hair in the front to the back between the cheeks. Bikini waxing is just the bikini area leaving a landing strip or V shape. We have even done heart shapes for Valentine’s day!

Removing the waxing strip can be akin to a bandaid being pulled off. After the intial strip, you know what to expect. We always recommend a product called EPIL from Guinot that helps slow down the growth of the hair for home maintenance daily.

Our support staff is happy to answer any of your questions to help make you feel comfortable with the process. It’s clean, no double dipping the applicators into the wax. We dip it one time for each application to prevent bacteria from spreading and we like being sanitary. Brazilian/bikini waxing can last about 2 – 3 weeks depending on the start of your waxing experience. The amount of growth can depend when the hair was waxed originally, thereafter you will see how long you can go between waxing services. Eventually the hair will decrease in growth over a period of time. Read more about our waxing services here.

Meet Monica. She has come on board with Indulge Salon a few months ago looking for a sense of adventure, being busy and meeting new people. She lives in Hanover with her kids.

Monica has previously worked with Massage Envy and About Faces in Baltimore, MD. we are pleased to have her join our team. When we first met she told me that she is usually busy and you know what? she is right. She helped created our new Skincation facial services for the summer called Maui, Tahiti and Tuscany $65 each. They are 30 minutes each and can be updated with the new Hydra Clean facial electrode that heats up to 119 degress that kills bacteria. She brings a professionalism to the salon that helps you feel comfortable if this has been your first time. Her personality is focused on getting results for you. She has the ability to adapt quickly if necessary.

Monica does natural nail manicures and pedicures when she isn’t bikini, brazilian waxing or facialing someone.

We have gotten so busy that we have to hire another esthetician! So look out for the nice changes that we will be making to the spa area.

New facials we have added to our roster of our Summer Series of skincare:

Hydra clean Facial Treatment

Hydra Clean Facial Treatment for teenagers

Stop acne breakouts. Hormonal skin from pregnancy or adult acne are excellent candidates for this cleansing facial.

The Hydra Clean facial treatment is perfect with any facial although the results are more dramatic for those that have congested skin. Congested meaning blackheads and whiteheads that are clustered together in patches around the nose, the creases of the nose that are so deep they are hard to remove with your human hands. No squeezing please!

Hydra Clean can be used in combination with chemical peels before the actual peel is performed. The Hydra Clean facial treatments is superperb for teenagers that are touching their skin all throughout the day. The fingers touch multiple bacteria ridden surfaces that bring more bacteria from their hands, fingernails and in general whatever they have touched will now be transferred to their skin. If the skin is oily this is like a magnet for oily skin.

The treatment includes cleansing, massage, exfoliation, our Hydra Clean thermoclean electrode that heats up from 110 degrees – 119 degrees prompting warming of the skin to allow the dirt to be exposed and removed. The temperature can be adjusted to your level of warmth that is comfortable for you. We can assist with surface extractions manually or with a tool for those stubborn areas. With Acneic or Cystic skin, we will not attempt to extract these because they are under the skin. Please consult your dermatologist for this level of care.

Hydra Clean facial kills bacteria for a result that improves skin

We can add our Hydra Clean electrode process to any of our facial treatments to help bring blackheads or congested white heads to the surface but the underneath extractions should be done by a licensed Dermatologist in that field. Ultimately, this is a better way and more gentle on the actual skin to prevent damage or scarring from squeezing, pushing relentlessly. After extractions, masque we follow up with cooling the skin down with the appropriate skin care regime that will be recommended for at home maintenance.

The Hydra Clean facial treatment is excellent for chest and backs that have breakouts from nerves or basic acne. The cleansing gels that we use are antimicrobial, hydrating and soap free. These specific gels allow our Hydra Clean electrode to glide along the skin easily.

Need a quick cleanup facial before your wedding? Indulge Salon of York Pa suggests a week before you get married, the Hydra Clean will help the skin come to a glow, kill bacteria and hydrate the skin before saying “I do.”

Oh crap, you forgot to recognize your professional on Secretary’s Day. Well, at least you can make it up like I am.

Owners, managers, you got busy doing the day to day things and the next minute the day has slipped by until your eyes pop opden like a shot thinking how could I have forgotten these amazing people that work with me and for me. Yep, I did it too. Now we have to do clean up because it really did slip our minds. They are thinking, “I work my a.. off  and you didn’t recognize me for the amazing person I am and what I do for you to make your day easier?” Really. I did. Shame on me as a business owner.

It doesn’t matter that you have a lot going in your personal life or business life, you are the chief instigator, the CEO of your life, the CFO, the Marketing specialist,  the President of your company and believe me you may have created your world but you “ain’t” nothing without your team. I know. I appreciate the girls that I work with and don’t tell them enough. I’m one of those perfectionists that I can always find ways to improve something. So let me translate from them, “nothing I do here is good enough, she will always find something wrong” True from the horses mouth. However; if I wasn’t that way, believe me we wouldn’t be able to create the best hairstyles and the best haircuts, manicures, pedicures, waxing, and highlighting that could possibly be provided to you without this expertise attitude. I wear it with pride.
