ONGOING (and ongoing, and ongoing x 73 popups in two years and 3 months) ELECTROYOGI ELECTROLYSIS PROTOCOLS AND INFORMATION DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. OMICRON BA2.ETC EDITION, MAY 21, 2022
***MAY 22ND, 2022***
Dearest existing and prospective ElectroYogi Electrolysis clients. Buongiorno! Here I am on the popup, again (and again) to inform you beautiful, kind, patient, and resilient humans of the protocols and processes here at ElectroYogi Electrolysis, and to report major yet exciting changes.
Pandemic notes first: as the highly contagious Omicron (phase BA2.12?) surges on, affecting us all in dramatic ways, your safety and mine are the #1 priority. I continue to take every precaution, at all stages of this pandemic, for you and for me and my family’s health. All I ask of you is that you are vaccinated, boosted, and that you take great care of yourself and your loved ones. We’ll evolve past this ever-challenging pandemic, sooner or later. As we all know, change is the only constant. May it get better soon, and may we retain some peace and grace as we enter year 3 of this darned thing. My heart is with you all!
Secondly, and as you may know by now, this pandemic literally decimated the ElectroYogi team, that was once four incredible women, and has shrunk more than I could have ever imagined. This is heartbreaking for me as a business owner, and as an electrologist who so wants to help everyone with their unwanted hair. But unfortunately, due to all this, I am at maximum capacity. For this reason, I’ve closed my personal books to new clients at this time. My priority is to serve each and every one of our returning customers, and any new ones, with all the time and attention, love and compassion they deserve, and to do that, there needs to be space on the schedule for people to get treated regularly.
BUT, during the 5-week period of June 13-July 15th, 2022, I have an exciting opportunity for NEW CLIENTS. One of my wonderful electroyogi electrologist who left during the pandemic for her home town of Denver will be in town to work in my place for 4-5 weeks. She will be taking almost exclusively new clients. This is a rare opportunity to get on my electrologist Erin’s schedule, then stay on my schedule for one visit per month thereafter starting August 2022 until you are completely hair free. While Erin is here, you can book with her as much as once per week (if you have that much hair), and she will be honored to serve you here at the studio. Here is the booking link. If you book with Nicole prior to August 2022, you will not be able to keep your appointment, so please book with Erin only. https://square.site/book/YX2YT3XYY42MR/electroyogi-electrolysis-los-angeles-ca
I am incredibly grateful for Erin’s return to Los Angeles, where she will work in my stead while I celebrate my (gasp!!) 50th birthday in Europe, and then return with renewed joy to serve you. For now, please be patient with me, and know that the journey of permanent hair removal may be long, but it is so worth it… YOU ARE WORTH IT!
Please email electroyogiwest@gmail.com to get on my new client wait list, or to ask any questions you might have. Please also know that it may take up to a week to hear from me, as I’m busy seeing our existing clients and making sure they have the best care possible, as I would intend for any of you. From the waitlist, I go in order of emails received, and I save every one of them. If you book with Erin during June-July, you’ll be automatically booked, and you will hear from Erin directly with directions to the studio prior to your first visit.
For all our beloved returning clients, please email nicole@electroyogi.com or electroyogiwest@gmail.com to get access to our online booking link.
As we ride out the many waves of this pandemic together, I send all my love and wishes for your health, safety, and peace during this challenging time. Thinking of each and every one of you, with love, and hope to see you sooner than later, and to help you lovingly and compassionately become hair free permanently.
~nicole, your electrolysis goddess

ELECTROYOGI PANDEMIC APPOINTMENT UPDATES, PROTOCOLS, AND PROCEDURES
- I kindly request that you continue to be healthy and masked when you come for your appointment, and notify us >24 hours in advance should you need to update or change your appointment, per our full charge cancellation policy.
- Upon arrival, please text your electrologist and wait in the beautiful outside seating area, rather than inside the office waiting room.
- Immediately upon arrival, please wash your hands or use our readily available hand sanitizer.
- Unfortunately, chatting is still limited during appointments on the face, due to evidence that coronavirus droplets from conversations alone can linger in the air for hours after someone has departed, and new evidence that the Delta variant can spread even from vaccinated people as easily as chicken pox, and Omicron is even more spreadable.
- When it comes time to check out, we have a completely contactless payment system, so you will not have to sign or touch anything as part of your payment process.
- I will manually set up your next appointment at the end of the session, or provide you access to our online booking system.
- Prior to and after your appointment, every possible touched surface, all cords, machinery, handles, bathroom fixtures, and more, is sanitized. Every sanitation protocol we have already been known for will continue, in addition to us wearing our protective masks, possibly face shields, fresh towels and sheets for each client, and as always, new gloves for your visit, new gloves for cleaning, then again new gloves for the client that follows you.
- For your safety and ours, though the County has eased this protocol, we continue to have no overlap of clients in the studio and no additional guests. Additionally, all consultations are now via Facetime and/or Zoom. I will continue to go above and beyond for your protection and ours during this ever-changing time…. because I love you and want you to be safe!
- As of July 2021 and beyond, I am only seeing clients who can provide proof of complete vaccination status. We also strongly recommend a COVID Booster, if you are eligible. It is our deepest wish to be part of the solution to this pandemic, and ending the hospitalizations and deaths can only be done through vaccination, ongoing masking, and social distancing. Thank you all for making choices to support the greater good of society in the face of this global pandemic.
Please review the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health guidance for further information, and know that I am following their recommendations fully and completely.
