By accepting the benefits of our membership services, you hereby agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, then you may not use our membership services. Your acceptance of these Terms shall include any additional terms, conditions, hyperlinks or policies referenced herein. 

2. PARTIES TO THE AGREEMENT

These Terms, together with the information contained in your membership receipt (if you are a Member) and/or Liability Waiver (if you are a Member or a Guest), constitute your “Agreement” with Honey Skincare Studio, “HSS’, “we,” “us” or “our”. Your Agreement is with the HSS Studio. By receiving Services, you acknowledge that HSS, and its past, present and future affiliates and subsidiaries, and their respective officers, directors, incorporators, members, partners, owners, agents, management, controlling parties, entities under common control, vendors, service providers, attorneys, employees or representatives (collectively, the “HSS Entities”) shall have no obligation to provide you with Services and further shall have no liability under your Agreement with HSS, including without limitation, these Terms. 

3. CHANGES & CORRECTIONS

You can always review the most recent version of these Terms on the Site. We reserve the right to update, change or replace any part of these Terms by posting updates to the Site or sending you email notice of any such change. It is your responsibility to check the Site periodically for any changes to the Terms. Your continued access to the Site or use of Services following the posting of any such change constitutes your acceptance of the changes. There may be information on the Site or App that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions that may relate to Services, including descriptions, pricing, availability and other information. We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update the information on the Site or App at any time, without prior notice. 

4. SERVICES 

We strive to offer a variety of modern and state-of-the-art med-spa corrective and enhancing treatments. A list of Services is posted at our website and HSS app. We reserve the right to change or discontinue Services at any time or adjust the price for Services. Services, once used, are non-refundable. Services may be sold a-la-carte, as a prepaid package, or through a membership plan. Certain Services may be subject to additional terms and conditions.  

5. MINORS

We do not offer or provide Services to anyone under the age of 16, unless direct supervision and/or specific written consent by a parent or legal guardian is given. If you are an individual aged 16 or below, then you may be eligible to receive Services provided your parent or legal guardian co-signs your Agreement (and consents to these Terms), takes primarily responsibility for all billing matters related to your account, and remains physically present in the HSS location at all times while you are receiving Services. You must be 18 years or older to be eligible for injectables and (IV) therapy. 

6. MEMBERS & GUESTS

We make Services available to both Members and Guests. We consider you a “Member” if you purchase Services through a membership plan. We consider you a “Guest” if you purchase Services outside of a membership plan, which could include being a walk-in or purchasing Services on an a-la-carte or prepaid package basis. Whether you are a Member or Guest, these Terms will apply to your receipt of Services. Members, however, will be subject to the additional terms and conditions for Memberships described below.  

7. APPOINTMENT BOOKINGS 

Although we accept walk-ins for Services on a first-come-first-serve basis, you are strongly encouraged to book an appointment for Services. It is your responsibility to book appointments for Services through the channels provided, which include in-person (at the HSS Studio location), by phone, through the App or through the Site. Once you have booked your appointment for Services, you will be considered “locked in” to the appointment. If you must cancel or reschedule your booked appointment, you must do so as soon as possible. 

As a courtesy to other Members and Guests, we will begin and end all booked appointments at their scheduled times. We will not extend the time if you show up late for a booked appointment. To maximize your benefits, we recommend that you arrive early to get checked in and prepare for receiving Services. 

Cancellation policy: HSS upholds a cancellation policy requiring 48 hours before the cancellation of your treatment. If you do not cancel 48 hours in advance of your appointment or do not show for your appointment, you will be charged a late cancel / no show fee of $150 to the credit card on file.

You agree that the late cancel and no-show fees are reasonable, and you authorize us to charge you, where applicable, to the payment method on file. If you have a membership service scheduled and you are subject to paying a late cancel or no-show fee, you will not lose a credit in addition to paying the late cancel or no-show fee. 

8. STUDIO RULES

Honey Skincare Studio Rules are subject to change, at our sole discretion. Services offered, hours of operation, rules for proper attire, and other rules related to your receipt of Services or access to HSS are subject to change and will be set by HSS.

Purchasing a gift card is not the same thing as purchasing a membership or a prepaid package for Services. Gift cards are subject to their own terms and conditions, as may be posted on the gift card itself.  Your use of Services purchased through a gift card will still be subject to these Terms.  

Member discounts are not applicable to gift card purchases. Gift Cards cannot be used towards membership payments.
