ONGOING ELECTROYOGI ELECTROLYSIS PROTOCOLS AND INFORMATION DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. OMICRON VARIANT EDITION, 1.17.22
***JANUARY 17th, 2022***
Buongiorno once again to all you beautiful, kind, patient and resilient humans. Here I am on the popup, again to inform you of our protocols and processes here at ElectroYogi Electrolysis, as now the highly contagious Omicron and lingering Delta variants of this COVID-19 pandemic surge on, affecting us all in dramatic ways. Safety for ourselves and you is our #1 priority, and we continue to take every precaution, at all stages of this pandemic. What we ask of you? Get Vaccinated! Get Boosted! Keep wearing your masks all the time… a high quality N95 or KN95 at that! Socially distance. This thing is not over, and lives continue to be on the line. I know how hard it is, but together, being mindful of each other’s safety, we will get to the other side of this pandemic sooner than later.
As you may know by now, this pandemic has shrunk our pre-pandemic team by what is now 80%, which means we are only able to serve a fraction of the clients we used to with 4 team members. 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, we are at maximum capacity. For this reason, we have closed our books to new clients at this time. Our 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, we need to have space on the schedule for people to get treated regularly. At this moment, my wonderful colleague Vanessa is pursuing some of her many other careers and has reduced her schedule with us to only one day per week. I am booked solid for so far out that I am continuing to hold off on new client appointments, so that I may best serve my current clients with the frequency of visits and care they deserve. For now, please be patient with us, and know that the journey of permanent hair removal may be long, but it is so worth it… YOU ARE WORTH IT!
Please email us at contact@electroyogi.com to get on our 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 us, as we are very busy seeing our existing clients. From the waitlist, we go in order of emails received, and we save every one of them.
For our beloved returning clients, please email us at nicole@electroyogi.com to get access to our booking link.
We send all our love and wishes for your health, safety, and peace during this challenging time, as we ride out the many waves of this pandemic together. 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.

ELECTROYOGI PANDEMIC APPOINTMENT UPDATES, PROTOCOLS, AND PROCEDURES
- We 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, we are still limiting chatting 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.
- Your electrologist 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, your electrologist will sanitize every possible touched surface, all cords, machinery, handles, bathroom fixtures, and more. 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 our consultations are now via Facetime and/or Zoom. We will continue to go above and beyond for your protection and ours during this ever-changing time…. because we love you and want you to be safe!
- As of July 2021 and beyond, we are only seeing clients who can provide proof of complete vaccination status. We also 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. We appreciate all of you 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 we are following their recommendations fully and completely.
