Breathe Rejuvenation Studio

Retirement Announcement

Dear Breathe Clients,

First I want to start by saying thank you for all of your messages of love and support while I have been off with this back issue. I am doing much better and I’m continuing to heal each day.

After a lot of reflection and many back and forth discussions with my family, I have made the decision to officially retire from aesthetics. With my back issue and the fact that I will be 55 this year, it feels like the right time. 34 years in this industry and 15 years with my own business. It’s been a hard decision because I absolutely love what I do. It is bittersweet for me.

A friend this week said to me “it’s bittersweet because you didn’t get to go out on your own terms, and there is grief in that”… and that is exactly what I feel. I cannot even begin to tell you how much your support all of these years has meant to me and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I have loved every minute of working on my clients. Laughing, crying and going through all of life’s ups and downs together. It was an honour to serve each and everyone of you and I thank you for entrusting me with your services. I will miss you.

A big shift is taking place in this next phase of my life, and although I feel sad I am looking forward to what’s to come 😊

Love Jen ❤️

It’s been an interesting last part of the year for me, but I am happy to say I am doing so much better! Thank you for all who reached out and for the well wishes. It meant so much. I will be in touch soon when I am officially back to work.

Wishing you and your loved ones a very Merry Christmas! May 2024 be happy, healthy and full of love ❤️

A reminder to take advantage of my Yonka skincare winter sale. 25% off all Yonka products. Orders to be in by Nov 14th!

Announcement and Update from Jen ❤️
(Please read to the end)

As some of you already know I have been off the last 5 weeks with a severe pinched nerve in my back. I am still suffering quite a bit with this major nerve problem. Along with this are so many other factors, like not sleeping because of pain a major one.
I have been getting treatments and adjustments from my Physio place, taking nerve and pain medication, lots of baths and heating pads. We bought a lazy boy recliner and hopefully I will be able to get some sleep in it.

Dr and chiropractor say that this WILL get better (although at the moment it doesn’t feel like it) but pinched nerves can take some time and need rest and therapy. I’m pretty down and completely exhausted. Truthfully it’s been awful but I’m so lucky to have Joe and my family.

Considering where I am in this pinched nerve journey and after careful thought, talking with the drs and Joe, I’ve decided that there is no way I can work right now, it just isn’t physically feasible and even once it’s starts to get better(🤞) I have to strengthen it and let it heal.

***So I’ve decided to take the rest of this year off to heal and focus on getting myself better. ***

They believe that 34 years of doing pedicures and leaning to that side is what has finally caused this break down. And my body said “that’s enough”.

***So it saddens me to let you know that after deliberating back and forth and much careful consideration, I am officially done doing Pedicures and Manicures. 🥲***

This decision makes me very sad because of losing these clients who have been with me for so long and are much more to me than just clients. We’ve become friends. It’s been such a joy and an honour to have worked on you and to have shared our lives with each other. ❤️

I hope in the new year to be back and doing JUST Facials, Waxings and Tinting. If you are interested in me contacting you when I am back up and at it, let me know and I will put you on my list to contact.

I totally understand if you find a new place but if come the new year and I’m back at it and you’d like to rebook I’d be so happy to see you again. No pressure and I completely understanding you do what you need to do.

I will still be doing a Yonka Skincare Product Sale at 25% OFF in November. Please email me your preorders by November 15th and I will be in touch to arrange pickup.

🎉Also in some exciting and fun news my daughter Stephanie Fonte is now a certified Lash Technician and will be offering lash extensions here starting in December. She and a friend will also be available to come to you to do “Lash Parties”. If you are interested let me know and I will get you her contact info. 🎉

I want to thank you for everything. I’m pretty emotional about this decision and I know it got a bit wordy above but I wanted to explain my decisions and my plans going forward.
I hope to see you in the New Year for your Facial, Waxing and Tinting!

Love Jen ❤️

I’ve been an esthetician 33 years this month. 33 years! A few more grey hairs and wrinkles but I’m still here…even if I’ve slowed down some. I’ve met some amazing people who are now wonderful friends, I’ve seen some amazing things and heard some incredible stories lol (these walls don’t talk ;) I’ve witnessed my industry grow and completely change, but the one thing that has been a constant is my love of people, my clients. Talking to, experiencing life with, touching, healing and helping them feel their very best in their own skin ❤️ I am fortunate to have loved what I do for 33 years 🥰

Facial Promo Season is fast approaching!! For the months of March and April receive 15% OFF the Classic Breathe Facial (reg price $95) Sale price $80.75 tax included AND Brightening Renewal Anti Age Facial (reg $130) Sale price $110.50 tax included!

NEW YEAR ANNOUNCEMENTS

Happy 2023! With the new year comes some announcements for me and my small business.

•First off this year I will be celebrating 33 years in this wonderful profession, AND 15 years of having my own small business in Breathe Rejuvenation Studio! I cannot thank you enough for all of your support over the years ❤️

This said, and as many of you may have noticed, I have slowed down some so that I am able to continue doing what I love and provide quality services.

My available hours this coming year are Wednesdays and Thursdays 7:30am-6:30pm and every other Friday 7:30am-5pm.

Please be aware with all of my wonderful regular clients that I do book up very quickly, so booking in advance is strongly suggested.

•Second Announcement

IF you have an outstanding Gift Certificate for Breathe Rejuvenation Studio it MUST be booked AND used by December 1st 2023.

I have not sold Gift Certificates since 2019 and when the pandemic hit and the unsureness that time caused for businesses such as mine, I decided it was time to finish them.

So this is my notice to you or anyone you may have given a gift certificate to have the opportunity to use them before December. After that they can no longer be redeemed.

*Physical Copy of Gift Certificate MUST be given to me at your appointment to be redeemed”.

I feel almost a years notice is quite fair to use up old certificates that may still be laying around. I know you will appreciate and understand me wanting to clear these up.

Here is a link to the Ontario Consumer Protection for you:

With the logistics out of the way I look forward to seeing you this year for your services and I want to wish you and your loved ones a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year! 🥳🎉
