What To Consider When Choosing A Beauty Therapist

So you’ve decided you want a beauty treatment doing and you’re looking for a new therapist, whether it’s your nails, makeup or an aesthetic treatment. Before you choose a new beautician there are a few things that you need to consider before booking.
Where are they based
You might not be too fussed where they carry out treatments, but some people do have a preference. You might prefer the comfort of a home-based beautician or you might like the hustle and bustle of a professional salon.
Make sure they’re fully qualified
Probably one of the most important things, especially with invasive treatments like aesthetics, you must make sure that the beauty therapist you choose is qualified in the treatments they’re offering. Not only is it to ensure they carry out treatments properly, but it’s also for your own safety and for hygiene purposes.
Look at previous work and client reviews
Before booking make sure you take a look at their previous work - you can usually find photos on their social media pages - and see if there are any client reviews. Happy clients will post on their social media pages. Also see if there are any returning clients, as this will show people are happy enough to return.
Check their price-list and cancellation policy
Before you book make sure their price is within your budget. You'll also want to check their cancellation policy just in case.
