Beauty Professionals MUST be Licensed'



LISTEN UP PEOPLE: 

You need to make sure that, regardless of the beauty service you are receiving, your professional is FULLY LICENSED as per your State's requirements. This is a big deal! Miami is notorious for "garage procedures". Yes, you may be paying a heck of a lot less, HOWEVER, you are putting your health at risk!

Esthetic Laws are in place for a reason, which is to "protect the public" AS WELL AS the professional performing the service. Make-up application, Eyebrow Shaping , a Facial, Permanent Make-up, Nail Treatments and ALL beauty treatments & procedures in between (even PERSONAL TRAINING) REQUIRE a license! 

Unless the business is applying make-up to your face with the INTENT TO SELL cosmetics, they CANNOT charge you a "make-up application fee" BY LAW. The establishment can, however, charge you for the make-up PRODUCTS for which you are sampling on your face. I didn't spend countless hours and thousands of dollars in training and certifications because I had nothing better to do with my time and money. There are universal precautions that need to be exercised regardless of the treatment! Something as seemingly insignificant as an "unwashed makeup brush" can lead to MRSA. Did you know that Hepatitis-C can live on almost ANY SURFACE for days? DAYS! Educate yourselves people! Licensed professionals have YOUR best interest in mind with regard to health & safety. Knowledge is power and you get what you pay for indeed. Ask questions and ask to see a copy of their current license.
