Today, the skincare legend, Pamela Springer, joins us for a second time and takes us on a deep dive into chemical peels for skin of color.
In today’s episode, Pamela discusses how different skin colors and types react to chemical peels and why an esthetician must investigate each skin to take care of it properly.
She emphasizes that, in caring for a client, an esthetician shouldn’t make assumptions by relying only on skin color but should dig deeper into the client’s genealogy to develop the appropriate skincare for the individual based on their DNA.
She shares how estheticians can investigate a client’s skin, how to prep various skins for chemical peels, how to prevent burns, the intensity of chemical peels needed for skin of color, and the role of PH levels in chemical peels generally.
On the business side, she also discusses tips on how estheticians should select their product line offerings to be able to cater to various skin types, her inside process of applying chemical peels, what estheticians can do to make more sales, and how to go about getting certified with her courses concerning taking excellent care of skin of color, and loads more!
