Use Tend Skin® for reducing the appearance of skin redness and next-day bumping from salon hair removal procedures.
For clients that are new to Tend Skin®, provide a sample to allow him/her to perform a patch test for skin sensitivity at home, then again after next hair removal procedure. Instruct client to allow 5 minutes for skin sensitivity reactions. Proceed with full application if no reactions occurred.
1. For clients with pre-existing ingrown hairs or razor bumps, sell a bottle of Tend Skin® for home use (see Standard Instructions). Once skin has cleared, he/she should apply several times weekly to maintain clarity.
2. Before and after waxing or electrolysis and only after laser hair removal, apply Tend Skin® to reduce the appearance of skin redness and minimize post-procedure skin bumping for the following day. There may be slight stinging when applying Tend Skin® after waxing or electrolysis, but it will pass immediately. If it does not simply apply a cool damp cloth to the area.
NOTE: It will typically take up to a week for an ingrown hair to form after these hair removal procedures and Tend Skin® will not be needed unless ingrown hairs remain. Sell your client a bottle of Tend Skin® for use at home to help maintain skin clarity. (See Standard Instructions).
3. After facial extraction or facial hair removal, apply a very thin layer to reduce the appearance of skin redness and bumping. Application of the product to the entire face can be done using one end of cotton tipped applicator.
