As summer approaches, clients are looking to feel confident from head to toe - and as beauty professionals, you are in the perfect position to guide them through a routine that’s equal parts pampering and practical. Whether it’s preparing skin for a flawless wax, opting for lashes that last through holidays and sunny days, or making feet beach-ready, summer beauty is all about the prep. With wax:one, LASHUS, and Footlogix® in your salon, here’s how to help your clients achieve their smoothest, most confident season yet.

The Secret to Silky Skin Starts Before the Wax

A great summer wax doesn’t start on the treatment bed - it starts with the right prep. Encourage your clients to exfoliate gently between appointments to remove dead skin cells and help prevent ingrown hairs. Remind them that hair length matters too: for the smoothest results, it should be about the length of a grain of rice. In the 24 hours leading up to their wax, it’s best to avoid extra heat like saunas, steam rooms, sunbeds, gyms, or prolonged sun exposure.

Smooth summer skin doesn’t end when your client leaves the salon, it continues with the right aftercare. Educate your clients on the golden 24-hour rule: no sunbathing, swimming, sweating, steam rooms, or saunas. They should also avoid touching or scratching the waxed area and skip rich body butters or oils that could clog pores.

Then one day after waxing, encourage them to soothe their skin with an anti-inflammatory treatment like wax:one care, to help prevent and treat ingrown hairs. It’s the perfect way to support healthy skin between appointments. Smooth summer skin isn’t just about the wax, it’s about the whole routine.

Low-Maintenance Lashes That Last

When it comes to summer lashes, holidays, hot weather, and dips in the pool can make lash extensions a little high maintenance. A lash lift is a game-changer for clients looking for natural, low-effort beauty perfect for the season. LASHUS is designed to be kind to the natural lash, with a gentle formula that lifts and defines with reduced risk of overexposure.

To keep lifted lashes looking full and healthy, recommend the LASHUS Lash & Brow Elixir - a nourishing daily treatment that promotes hair strength and conditions, making it an easy retail add-on that genuinely enhances results.

Feet Fit for Flip-Flops

As clients dig out their sandals and book holidays, it’s time to remind them that foot care is just as important as a fresh manicure. Many clients only think about their feet when something goes wrong, but summer is the perfect moment to shift that mindset toward prevention and regular care. A professional pedicure using Footlogix® can transform even the driest heels. With medical-grade, results-driven formulations, the focus isn’t just on beauty, it’s on restoring true foot health.

For at-home maintenance, suggest the Footlogix® Ultimate "At Home" Foot Care Combo, which allows clients to extend the benefits of their in-salon treatments. If they’re worried about the look of nails, recommend the Footlogix® Toe Nail Tincture Spray to keep unsightly or discoloured nails in check - especially handy before heading off to barefoot beaches. To boost your salons retail offerings, recommend Footlogix® Foot Fresh and Shoe Fresh for clients to keep both feet and footwear clean and odour-free on hot Summer days.

Glow From Head to Toe

Helping clients get summer-ready isn’t about last-minute fixes, it’s about setting them up with smart, effective routines they can rely on. With wax:one, LASHUS, and Footlogix®, you can offer a full-circle approach that helps your clients look and feel their best long after they leave your chair. So whether they’re jetting off to sunnier climates or just embracing bare-skin season at home, you’ve got the expertise (and the product) to help them step into summer with confidence.
