Your first visit
A first visit takes about 90 minutes. Here is what happens, in order.
- 01
Step 1: Book your visit
Choose the first visit on the booking page. A deposit holds your time and goes toward your service. If you'd rather talk first, book the 30-minute consultation on its own.
Book online or call the studio
Tell us at booking if you take a skin medicine from a doctor

Step 2: What to bring
Everything you use on your face at home, or photos of it, so Shantel can go through it with you.

Step 3: When you arrive
Park in the lot behind 310 West Franklin Street and use the courtyard door. Suite 6 is the first door on the left. Arrive 10 minutes early to fill in a short form.
The form is on the booking page too, if you'd like to fill it in at home

Step 4: What to expect
You start with 30 minutes of talking and looking under the lamp. Then the facial: cleansing, steam, extractions where your skin allows, a mask and a rest.
Shantel tells you what she is doing before she does it
You can ask her to stop at any point

Step 5: Afterward
You leave with a written note of what she saw, what she did and what to do at home until your next visit. Book that visit on the way out, or later online.
Results vary, and your skin may feel tender for a day or two
Good to know
Before you arrive
Come as you are
Wear what you like. Shantel covers your clothes and tucks a band round your hair.
Tell us what's new
A medicine from a doctor, a new product or a strong one used this week: say so at booking.
It is one room
Suite 6 has one room and no waiting area, so please come on your own.
