QUICK WINS
"Permanent jewelry, (also referred to as permanent bracelets, forever bracelets or welded jewelry) is to me, an option to celebrate, signify, commemorate events, show a bond with someone you love - a bestie, mom, daughter, sister, friend, anyone! - memorialize, honor events, treat yourself - for a moment in your life, similar to a tattoo or piercing. And while it is technically called "permanent" - it can be removed should you need or desire to remove it.
I knew I wanted to offer high-quality pieces - something that truly could be worn and lived in. After all, this is Weld(ed) - jewelry for a life well lived."

How do I book an appointment with you?You can book via the online booking system by clicking here, by calling 612-656-9298 It may take time for us to get back to you, as we don't check the phone when we are with clients, so the easiest and quickest way for you to manage bookings is to book online. If you are uncomfortable booking online or having trouble finding a time that works for you, I will be happy to assist you in booking your appointment.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule an appointment?Effective January 1, 2017, we will be implementing a new cancellation policy. I understand that 'Life' happens, but I make a great effort to be prepared for your appointment - when that doesn't happen, I lose valuable time that could have been given to someone else, and in turn, is a loss of income. As I am respectful of all of my clients and their time, I simply ask the same in return. If you need to cancel or reschedule for any reason, it must be done 24 hours or more in advance or cancellation fees will be incurred by the client. Fees are as follows: Cancellations or rescheduled appointments made without 24+ hours notice will be charged 50% of the total service price. Missed/"no show" appointments will be charged 100% of the total service price. Fees assessed will need to be paid prior to booking your next appointment. Thank you for your consideration of others, I greatly appreciate your help!

How long does my hair need to be for waxing?1/4" - 1/2" (about the length of a grain of rice) - any longer than that and we run the risk of hairs getting tangled or crossed, and the wax won't be as effective, and may be more painful for you.
-
How do I prepare for a body wax (bikini, brazilian, etc)"The day before the wax, gently exfoliate the area. Do not wear any body lotion, oil or perfume in the area to be waxed on the day of your appointment.
-
I'm scheduled for a bikini/brazilian/french bikini wax, and I'm on my period....what do I do?"It's entirely up to you if you'd like to still have your wax service. Most women experience a bit more sensitivity around their periods. If you do decide to go ahead with the wax, please wear a tampon, and let me know that you're on your period when you arrive. If you'd like to reschedule for after your period, that's okay too, just do so at least 24 hours ahead of time so I can open that appointment time for other clients.
-
Pre and Post care for all wax services-do not tan for a week prior to waxing -no lotion, oil, or perfume in the area to be waxed -stay out of the sun for 24 hours prior to waxing -post wax, stay out of the sun for 24 hours, and wear spf when you do go out in the sun -avoid tight clothing for the first few hours post wax for comfort -do not pick at ingrown hairs. If you have trouble with ingrown hairs, please let Amber know so we can discuss options for treatment -all waxing should be done on a regular basis for best results. Hair will grow back more fine, there is less chance of ingrown hairs, and it's less painful if you get on a regular wax schedule. We recommend 3-5 weeks, depending on how fast your hair grows.

The photos can be on facebook, instagram, pinterest, a magazine- anywhere really, it just gives us a good jumping off point for what we want to work towards - that's it! I recommend arriving makeup free if possible so I can prep your skin appropriately.
