Seven-step treatment explained
The Facial follows a seven-step sequence: hot steam, cleanse, exfoliation, gel mask, brush cleansing, toner, and a moisturizing massage. Each step is performed in the order described to move from opening pores and removing surface debris to restoring moisture, keeping the process straightforward and repeatable within a single session.
Hot steam softens skin and helps loosen trapped oils; cleansing and exfoliation then remove dead cells and surface impurities. The gel mask and brush cleansing soothe and clarify the skin's surface, while toner balances the skin and the final moisturizing massage helps redistribute hydration without relying on aggressive procedures.
What to expect physically
During the Facial you may notice gentle warmth from the steam and a feeling of pressure during brush cleansing; sensations vary with skin sensitivity. The gel mask often feels cool as it settles. If you have known sensitivities or recent skin treatments, telling the barber before we start helps adjust pressure and product choices.
The seven-step protocol is delivered within a focused 40 MINUTES appointment, so timing is tight and transitions are intentional. This compact schedule is a trade-off: you get a full sequence covering opening, cleansing, and moisturizing, but the treatment is designed for efficiency rather than extended, multi-hour pampering.
Preparation and aftercare
Before your appointment, let the barber know about recent product use, active topical prescriptions, or any procedures you’ve had. That information doesn't limit service, but it allows adjustments in pressure, product choice, or timing. Clear communication helps avoid irritation and makes the session safer for sensitive or recently treated skin.
Aftercare is simple: we recommend continuing gentle cleansing and daily moisturization appropriate to your skin. If you want tailored product suggestions, ask the barber at the end of your session. Specific follow-up intervals or home regimens are personal choices best decided together rather than prescribed universally.
