Salon Spotlight – The Lakes Beauty Room, Nottingham

Salon Spotlight Each month, we are going to bring you all a new SkinBase Therapist case study, to give you tips, advice and success stories of real people, real businesses and real SkinBase reviews… All in the form of our Salon Spotlight. This month, our spotlight is on Wendy Hemmings, owner of The Lakes Beauty Room, Nottingham. We asked the all important questions and her answers are below. How long have you been offering SkinBase treatments? I have been offering Skinbase Microdermabrasion for 8+ years now and can’t imagine my salon without it. How popular is SkinBase with your clients? This treatment is the most popular treatment at my salon. I am a home based salon so my clients range in all sorts of ages and walks of life. The treatment sells itself because of the changes in the skin after just one session. My clients tell me that this facial is addictive and I have to agree! I can’t imagine my salon without Microderm now, it is such a huge part of my treatments, my number one best selling facial out of the 9 or 10 that I offer. What skin complaint do you most commonly treat with your SkinBase machine? The biggest concerns for my clients are fine lines and wrinkles and dull/dry skin. Although I have also had some great success with acne scarring and pigmentation too. It’s the anti-ageing side of it that my ladies go for mainly. I always say to my clients, before you…

Salon Spotlight

Each month, we are going to bring you all a new SkinBase Therapist case study, to give you tips, advice and success stories of real people, real businesses and real SkinBase reviews… All in the form of our Salon Spotlight. This month, our spotlight is on Wendy Hemmings, owner of The Lakes Beauty Room, Nottingham. We asked the all important questions and her answers are below.

How long have you been offering SkinBase treatments?

I have been offering Skinbase Microdermabrasion for 8+ years now and can’t imagine my salon without it.

How popular is SkinBase with your clients?

This treatment is the most popular treatment at my salon. I am a home based salon so my clients range in all sorts of ages and walks of life. The treatment sells itself because of the changes in the skin after just one session. My clients tell me that this facial is addictive and I have to agree! I can’t imagine my salon without Microderm now, it is such a huge part of my treatments, my number one best selling facial out of the 9 or 10 that I offer.

What skin complaint do you most commonly treat with your SkinBase machine?

The biggest concerns for my clients are fine lines and wrinkles and dull/dry skin. Although I have also had some great success with acne scarring and pigmentation too. It’s the anti-ageing side of it that my ladies go for mainly. I always say to my clients, before you go for injectables and fillers, give Microdermabrasion a try. I’ve actually managed to stop some clients from having those invasive treatments by talking them into having Microdermabrasion.

If you could offer just one skincare tip to your clients what would it be?

I would say when it comes to skincare products always invest in a good moisturiser as this one product is sitting on your skin and sinking into your bloodstream. Cleansers don’t need to be overly expensive as you are pretty much putting these on and then wiping/washing them off, but a decent moisturiser is a must!  I would also suggest anyone above 25 should be wearing an eye cream too!

Wendy, we have seen on your facebook page all the fantastic makeovers you do for your Brides. What’s your top tip for achieving a great look?

A great makeup isn’t just about using the right products, it is about getting the skin underneath it in top condition. I always recommend a course of Microdermabrasion to my brides leading up to their Big Day and I can honestly say that makeup goes on completely differently on a Microdermed Bride! My most used saying to my brides-to-be at their wedding makeup trial is “your makeup will only be as good as the skin underneath it.

What makes you stand out from the crowd?

I would say the thing that makes me stand out from the crowd is my honesty and dedication to this treatment. Being the only therapist at The Lakes Beauty Room means I get to know my clients’ skin inside out. I offer them the best and true advice and will always have their interests at heart. Yes, making money is obviously a goal when you have your own business, but it’s the honesty and dedication that my clients praise me for. I always say to my clients that I will only use machinery or products that I would use on myself and they all know that my machinery and products have all been researched and tried and tested on me. They seem to like that.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
