Studio Policies & Booking Information
⸻
Your appointment time is reserved especially for you. Please review the following studio policies so we can provide the best experience for every client.
⸻
Appointments
Appointments are reserved in precise time increments to ensure an efficient and seamless experience for every guest.
All scheduling is easily accessible through the online booking system. This provides real-time availability and ensures accuracy.
Appointments may be scheduled in studio at checkout, if the client chooses too. After that, all future scheduling and appointment adjustments is completed online.
⸻
Cancellations & Rescheduling
If you need to adjust your appointment, we kindly ask that all changes be made online at least one day before your scheduled service.
⸻
Same-Day Cancellation & Rescheduling
Appointments canceled or rescheduled on the same day of your service will be subject to a 50% fee for original scheduled services. Changes made within one hour of the scheduled appointment time are considered a missed appointment and will result in a 100% fee for the original scheduled services.
This policy allows us to offer availability to other clients while honoring the time reserved for you.
⸻
Late Arrival
Appointments are reserved in specific time blocks.
Late arrivals may require adjustment or rescheduling in order to respect the next guest’s reserved time.
If you are running late, please communicate as soon as possible. Clients who arrive late, miss their appointment, or cancel without adequate notice will be charged the full service fee.
Please note that this fee still applies even if the appointment is rescheduled for later the same day, as that time was originally held for you.
We appreciate your understanding and respect for our schedule and the time of other clients.

Preferred Client Pricing
Preferred Client Pricing is reserved for guests who maintain their appointments within 4–6 weeks.
Appointments scheduled outside of this timeframe will reflect standard pricing.
The 4–6 week window is calculated from the date of your last completed appointment with Lizzy Lou’s Waxing.

Card on File
A valid credit card is required to reserve all appointments.
Cards are securely stored through the booking system and are not charged unless a late cancellation or no-show occurs.
Appointments cannot be held without a card on file.
To protect the security of our clients’ payment information, credit cards are only accepted through our secure online booking system. For this reason, we are unable to take credit card information over the phone.
If you would like to add a card to your file, it may be securely added in person during checkout.
Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the safety of your personal information.

Forms
New clients must complete the waxing consent form prior to arrival. Appointments may be delayed if required forms are incomplete.

Medications That May Prevent Waxing
Certain medications can make the skin more sensitive or fragile and may increase the risk of irritation or skin lifting during waxing. Please review the chart below and inform your provider if any apply to you.
⸻
Facial Medications
Any medications or topical treatments used on the face must be discontinued prior to facial waxing, even if they are applied to a different area than the one being waxed. Many facial medications affect the skin as a whole and may increase sensitivity or the risk of irritation during waxing.
Please discontinue any retinol products for 7–10 days.
These medications may thin or sensitize the skin and increase the risk of irritation or skin lifting during waxing.
