Five of us, two studios, one way of working

Mary leads the Downtown studio and works Tuesday to Saturday. She is the one to ask for if you are new to facials or want a first visit that takes its time: she explains each step as she goes and writes down what she notes, so the next visit starts from the notes. Choose her for a consultation, a dermaplaning facial or a visit when you would like to talk.

Sagrario takes the early appointments at the Downtown studio, Monday to Thursday from 8 a.m., so a facial fits before the workday. She speaks English and Spanish. Choose her for an express facial, a custom facial or a regular visit you can book a month ahead and keep.

Genesis takes the late appointments at the Crossroads studio, Tuesday to Saturday until 7 p.m. Choose her for a facial after work, a deep-cleansing facial with extractions or a dermaplaning visit. She plans each visit with the skin you have that day, and she tells you what she sees before she begins.

Harpreet works Monday to Thursday at the Crossroads studio and keeps to the clock, which is why lunch-hour clients book her. She speaks English, Punjabi and Hindi. Choose her for a 30-minute express facial or a membership visit you can count on.

Willow works at Downtown on Fridays and Saturdays and at Crossroads on Mondays and Wednesdays, so she is the one to book if your week moves between the two. Choose her for a superficial peel facial, a custom facial or a visit where you would rather not talk much.
