At Escape Skin and Body, we believe in supporting our clients through every step of their beauty and wellness journey. Knowing when to visit the salon isn’t just about staying polished, it’s about maintaining balance, nourishing your body, and honouring self-care. While each person’s needs are unique, understanding the natural rhythms of your skin, hair and body can help you make empowered choices. This guide offers gentle guidance on how often to schedule different treatments, with your whole self in mind.
How Often Should You Get a Facial?
Facials are more than just skincare, they’re a space for your skin to reset, your mind to pause, and your body to breathe. For most skin types, a monthly facial supports the natural renewal cycle, helping to maintain clarity, hydration and radiance. We tailor each facial to your individual needs, whether it’s soothing inflammation, treating breakouts, or replenishing moisture. For those navigating hormonal imbalances or chronic conditions, we may recommend different rhythms based on your skin’s response. Supporting your skin from within is equally important. Many of our clients benefit from including the Bestow Collagen Boost Powder in their daily rituals, promoting skin elasticity and hydration through gut nourishment.
Ideal Schedule for Haircuts and Colour Treatments
Your hair reflects the health of your body, your environment, and even your emotional state. Whether you’re embracing a low-maintenance look or vibrant colour, the timing of your appointments can support both your outer confidence and inner calm.
As a gentle guide:
- Haircuts every 6–8 weeks help maintain shape and vitality.
- Root colour maintenance may be needed every 4–6 weeks, depending on your natural regrowth and chosen shade.
- Highlights or balayage can often stretch to 8–12 weeks, with toning in between to keep the look fresh.
If you’re on a journey to grow or restore your hair, we’ll work with you to create a rhythm that honours your goals and hair health.
How Frequently Should You Book Waxing or Hair Removal Services?
Waxing can be a deeply empowering self-care practice when timed in harmony with your natural hair cycle. For best results, we recommend:
- Legs and underarms: every 3–4 weeks
- Bikini area: every 4–6 weeks
- Facial areas: every 2–4 weeks, depending on sensitivity and regrowth
Exfoliation between visits supports smoother results. Our Tasmanian Sand Scrub is a gentle, locally inspired blend that helps prep and care for the skin in between appointments.
How Often Should You Get Your Nails Done?
Nail care is an expression of both beauty and mindfulness. Taking time to care for your hands and feet connects you back to yourself in the simplest way.
We often guide clients toward the following schedule:
- Regular polish: weekly to 10 days
- Gel or shellac manicures: every 2–3 weeks
- Acrylics or overlays: refilled every 2–3 weeks
If your routine includes lash treatments as well, our Purely Lashes Lash Rescue Oil is a beautiful way to support lash health between appointments, especially when paired with nail and eye services.
Are Monthly Visits Enough to Maintain Your Beauty Routine?
A monthly visit to the salon can become a sacred space in your calendar, a pause for breath, reconnection, and beauty. Many of our clients choose to combine treatments like facials, waxing, and nail care in one nurturing session. Our Pick Me Up – 1.5 hrs package is a lovely way to embrace this all-in-one experience, allowing time to rest and restore while supporting your skin and body with intention.
Factors Influence Your Ideal Salon Schedule
There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to self-care. Your age, lifestyle, emotional wellbeing and even the seasons influence how often your body craves professional support.
Here are a few guiding reflections:
- Are you navigating a life transition or hormonal change?
- Has your skin shifted with the season?
- Do you feel nourished, or depleted, when looking in the mirror?
Listening to these cues can help you determine when it’s time to return to the treatment room.
Best Way to Plan a Beauty Treatment Schedule
Creating a regular beauty ritual is one of the most grounding acts of self-kindness. Our team is here to help you create a schedule that’s not only practical, but meaningful.
We recommend:
- Booking regular treatments ahead of time, especially around seasonal changes
- Using intuitive tools like journals or phone reminders to stay consistent
- Exploring nourishing additions like Bestow gut health powders to support skin from within
We offer consultations to help you understand your skin’s rhythm and curate a treatment plan tailored to your unique journey.
