Welcome to The Nest Beauty Services

Whether you're visiting us for a relaxing facial, fresh nails, a new hairstyle, beautiful lashes, or your first spray tan, we're excited to have you!


If it's your first visit, it's completely normal to have questions. We want you to feel comfortable from the moment you arrive until you leave feeling refreshed and confident.

Here's everything you need to know before your first appointment at The Nest Beauty Services.


Before Your Appointment

Complete Any Required Forms

Some services require health history or consent forms before your appointment.

If applicable, you'll receive these electronically before your visit. Completing them in advance helps your appointment begin on time.


Follow Any Pre-Service Instructions

Certain services have preparation guidelines to help you achieve the best possible results.

Examples include:

  • Arrive with clean lashes for lash appointments.

  • Avoid shaving before certain waxing services.

  • Remove makeup before some facial treatments if possible.

  • Follow any specific instructions included in your appointment confirmation.

If you're unsure how to prepare, don't hesitate to contact us before your appointment at 801-462-6378.


Parking

Parking is available directly outside The Nest Beauty Services, making it easy to get in and out with children and strollers.

Please arrive 5–10 minutes early, especially if you'll be using our complimentary childcare services or need to complete paperwork.


Using Our Complimentary Childcare

One of the things that makes The Nest unique is our complimentary onsite childcare.

If you've requested childcare:

When You Arrive

  • Check in at the front desk.

  • Complete the childcare check-in process.

  • Our team will help your child get settled into the play area.

  • Your service provider will begin your appointment once your child is safely checked in.

If you forgot to request childcare when booking, please contact us before your appointment. We'll do our best to accommodate you based on availability.

What to Bring

Most appointments require very little!

We recommend bringing:

  • Any inspiration photos you'd like to share

  • Glasses if you normally wear them for reading or choosing colors

  • Your preferred payment method

If your appointment includes childcare, bring any items your child may need during their visit, such as a labeled water bottle, diaper bag, or comfort item.

During Your Appointment

Your service provider will:

  • Review your appointment

  • Discuss your goals and expectations

  • Answer any questions you have

  • Recommend products or services only if they genuinely benefit you

Our goal is never to rush you. We want you to leave feeling confident, relaxed, and happy with your experience.

Payment Options

Payment is due at the completion of your appointment.

We accept major credit and debit cards, as well as other accepted electronic payment methods. If you have questions about payment or gift cards, our front desk is happy to help.

Gratuity

While never required, gratuities are always appreciated by our service providers.

A common guideline is 15–20% for exceptional service, but the amount is entirely at your discretion. Gratuity may be added during checkout for your convenience.

Our Cancellation Policy

We understand that life happens and schedules change.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please provide at least 24 hours' notice. Appointments canceled with less than 24 hours' notice are subject to a 50% cancellation fee to cover the time reserved specifically for you. This policy allows us to respect our providers' time while giving other clients the opportunity to book available appointments.

After Your Appointment

Your service doesn't end when you leave our salon.

Your provider will explain any recommended aftercare instructions specific to your service.

Examples may include:

Nails

  • Apply cuticle oil daily.

  • Wear gloves when using cleaning products.

  • Avoid using your nails as tools.

Hair

  • Use professional products recommended by your stylist.

  • Follow any washing or styling instructions.

Facials

  • Wear sunscreen daily.

  • Avoid harsh exfoliants if recommended.

  • Keep skin hydrated.

Lashes

  • Avoid water and steam for the recommended time.

  • Clean lashes regularly with lash-safe cleanser.

  • Schedule fills every 2–3 weeks.

Spray Tans

  • Wait the recommended amount of time before rinsing.

  • Moisturize daily.

  • Avoid exfoliating until you're ready to remove your tan.

Following your aftercare instructions helps extend the life of your service and ensures the best possible results.


Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! Many guests choose to rebook before checking out to secure their preferred provider and appointment time.
