Facial Waxing
Facial wax works with either warm or cold variation, which hardens against the
area of skin with the unwanted hairs. It is then quickly removed in the opposite
direction of the hair growth, taking the roots along with it. If you're looking for a
cleaner look, and long-lasting smoothness, then facial waxing may be an option
worth considering.
The results of waxing generally tend to last between two to six weeks, but this
can vary from person to person depending on their individual hair growth cycle.
Waxing is most guaranteed to last longer than bleaching or shaving, where
re-growth has been found to occur relatively quickly by comparison.

Temporary Wrinkle Therapy / Filler Treatments
•
Face and lip fillers (dermal fillers)
Dermal fillers are substances injected into your face. They fill lines and wrinkles
and add volume to areas such as your lips or cheeks. Fillers are not permanent.
How long they last depend on things like the type of filler and where it's injected.
They usually last between 6 and 18 months. Most dermal fillers used in the UK
contain a natural substance called Hyaluronic Acid. Please remember, if you
have fillers, the rest of your face will continue to age as normal.
What is the procedure like? An anaesthetic cream might be used first to numb
your skin. Injections are given around the area of your face being treated, which
is then massaged.
It might feel uncomfortable but should not be painful. The treatment usually
takes between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
Afterwards the affected area may be a bit red, sore and swollen. Any swelling or
bruising should settle down in a few days. You should be advised about what to
do to help reduce the risk of side effects. This includes not wearing make-up
immediately after the procedure, and avoiding alcohol, coffee and the sun.
•
Chin & Jaw Enhancement (Non-Surgical)
An initial consultation determines both suitability, and the goals of treatment.
A local anaesthetic injection is used to ensure that the treatment is as
comfortable as possible. Dermal filler is injected into the chin/jawline to
improve the shape, profile, projection and symmetry.
•
Nasolabial Folds (Lips/smile lines) (Non-Surgical)
Nasolabial folds extend from the nose down towards the corners of the mouth
(also known as melolabial folds) and are the first indicators of the skin aging.
This can be corrected by injections of dermal fillers into the surrounding areas in
the cheek and face, adding back any lost volume, and effectively filling the smile
lines. The Dermal fillers used at Look’s are made from the naturally occurring
substance, Hyaluronic Acid. Hyaluronic acid is very safe and has been clinically
tested.
•
Dermal Filler Corrections
What is a dermal filler removal or correction?
Sometimes the client may not be happy with the outcome of a procedure where
dermal fillers have been used, or in rare cases where the treated area develops
prolonged swelling or infection. This can be remedied with Hyaluronidase.
Hyaluronidase is a prescription only medication that can help dissolve unwanted
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers. Although you may see an immediate improvement, it
can take several weeks to work fully. Only fillers that are formulated with
Hyaluronic Acid can be reversed with this enzyme.
How does it work? Injecting Hyaluronidase into the treated area dissolves the
particles of Hyaluronic Acid.
Brows
•
Henna Brow
It will appear matte and fluffier than regular tinting. Traditional hair and brow
dye will tint the hairs, whereas henna successfully grips the skin.
It is vegan friendly and free from peroxide activators, making it a suitable option
for anyone with sensitive skin (however a patch test is still required).
The results of henna brows typically last between 2-4 weeks, but it’s dependant
on your skin type. If you have a dryer complexion, henna brows will tend to last a
bit longer than they would on someone with an oily complexion.
•
Brow Lamination
A two-step eyebrow perming treatment that involves correcting the brow shape.
This is achieved by setting the hairs in place using a chemical solution. In the first
step, a cream is applied that breaks down bonds in the eyebrow hairs so they can
be manipulated into a new position. In step two, a ‘fix’ lotion or cream is applied
to rebuild these bonds and set the brows in their new position, giving a fantastic
uniform shape to the brows. There are many brands of these products, even
ones that are vegan friendly and free from peroxide activators, making them a
more suitable option for anyone with sensitive skin (however a patch test is still
required).
•
Eyebrow Threading
In threading, (epilation) a thin cotton or polyester thread is doubled, then
twisted. It is then moved over areas of unwanted hair, plucking the hair at the
follicle level. Contrast this to tweezing, where single hairs are pulled out one at a
time, threading can remove short rows of hair.
The advantages cited for eyebrow threading, include that it provides more
precise control in eyebrow shaping, and that it is more tender on the skin. A
disadvantage is that it can be painful, as several hairs are removed at once;
however, this can be minimized when done with the right pressure.
There are a few different techniques for threading. These include the hand
method, mouth method and neck method. Each technique has advantages and
disadvantages; however, the mouth holding method is the fastest and most
precise.

Eyebrow Waxing and Tinting
Our eyebrows are one of the strongest features on our face, hence why there are
so many methods used to enhance and thus make an impact. Step one to
achieving a perfect set of brows is to define your natural shape and remove all
those unwanted hairs. Waxing provides a perfect base on to create the brows
you want. Eyebrow tinting is perfect for people with fair eyebrows. It gives a
much stronger, thus more effective look. Eyebrow tinting consists of dying the
eyebrow hairs with natural tints, Look’s Beauty provides different colours to
match all skin tones and colouring.
•
Eyebrow Lift
A non-surgical cosmetic procedure, an eyebrow lift tightens and raises the skin
on the upper area of your face, concentrating specifically the forehead and
eyebrows. It can smooth out the furrows between your brows, raise up ‘drooping
eyebrows’, open up your eyes, and remove lines on your forehead.
Lashes
•
LVL Lashes
LVL Enhance is a treatment that promises to boost your lashes naturally.
LVL stands for length-volume-lift. The idea is simply to use a setting lotion/serum
to straighten natural lashes at the root. This in turn makes them look curled, and
then the lashes are tinted, creating the appearance of mascara.
•
Eyelash Extensions
Unlike gluing a strip of temporary fake lashes onto your lash line, semi-
permanent lashes are applied. The technician hand-glues the individual
extensions on top of your natural lashes. Lash extensions don’t come in a strip,
making them super customizable. That in turn means they actually look real.
With the proper aftercare, eyelash extensions can last for six to eight weeks until
they naturally fall out as your own lashes usually do.
•
Russian Full Volume
Russian full volume lashes, are ultra-fine synthetic lashes that although made
from the same fibres as classic lashes they are much thinner so the lash
technician is able to apply more than one to each natural lash.
Typically applied in a fanned shape, which adds to the 'voluminous' look
associated with Russian Full Volume.
•
Classic and Hybrid Volume
Classic lashes consist of one false lash, to one natural lash. Whilst hybrid typically
consists of a mixture of volume and classic, usually on 30 - 70 split. This
combined look creates probably the most voluminous of all the eyelash
treatments.
