Managing Stress During the Holiday Season

March 15, 2023October 23, 2018

By the time September and October roll around, the Christmas decorations are already up in most department stores. In reality, some stores start pulling out the tinsel by August. Thus, with the holidays thrust upon us several months in advance, it’s no wonder we all seem to get swept up in the red-and-white haze of stress that is the holiday season. And, in trying to budget your seasonal bonus and strategize gifts for family and friends, you may not really stop to think about how you can give back to yourself.

But here at Hello Smooth, we want you to stay cool and have a smooth handle on the season. And what better way to do that than to pamper yourself? By taking the time to put yourself in a calm environment and indulge in some beautifying treatments, your holiday stress will slide away into a pleasant hum in the back of your mind.

Personally, we believe that there are a variety of services that are perfect for the purpose of spoiling yourself. For instance, you can wash away your stress with a HydraFacial or let good vibes soak in with a microneedling treatment. But if you’re shopping around for something that cleanses your whole body of tension, refresh yourself with a skin rejuvenation session, be the most confident in your skin with laser hair removal.

Either way, just because the temperature will soon drop, it doesn’t mean you have to.

No matter how tense you feel, don’t let the holiday stress make you say, “Bah humbug!”. Instead, be cool, be smooth, be you! Call Hello Smooth today to give yourself the gift of relaxation and get a free consultation. Plus, with $100 off for new clients, it really is the most wonderful time of the year!

Hello Smooth – Staying FIT during Winter months

March 15, 2023October 5, 2018

Winter is coming, and for some, that means it’s time to cover up and hide away under layers of clothing… But not you, not this time. No matter what time of year it is, if you’re the best version of yourself, you will feel your best and when you feel good, you look good!

Have you ever noticed that when you’re feeling fit, all your clothes look better? But when you’re not confident in how you look, nothing seems to work. That doesn’t just go for bikinis and boardies, but also the perfect fall sweater and boots./p>

Have you ever noticed that no matter how many layers you pile on, if you’re not smooth and fit underneath, you spend more time staring at your closet than putting those clothes on and getting out! For most of us, having to wear more clothes ends up making us feel even bigger. Most people tend to feel down after a long winter and holiday season, so every little bit helps when it comes to boosting our self esteem.

We believe that feeling good in your own skin is important no matter what time of year; and when winter comes around it’s no different! We look forward to seeing you! Be Smooth, Be Cool and Be YOU!

FAQ about JUVÉDERM® and RESTYLANE® dermal fillers.

February 27, 2023August 27, 2018

Our skin changes as we age, it’s just a part of growing older.. It becomes thinner, loses fat, and no longer looks as plump and smooth as it once did. Facial aging actually begins in your 20s, when skin firmness begins to decrease as a result of both internal (genetics and natural aging) and external (sun exposure, smoking, pollution, sleeping positions, etc) factors.

Thankfully, your friends here at Hello Smooth have ways of helping you fight back against these changes to help you age a little more gracefully, and on your terms. One of our most popular and effective techniques involves the proper use of dermal fillers.
