The Skin Academy Indy

Honest conversations can be intimidating for many estheticians, but they’re so important. We’re often afraid to offend, push away clients or even hurt feelings, but here’s a whole lotta truth…

Just facials every couple months aren’t going to change your skin 😳

When working with ANY esthetician, here’s what you need to go in knowing.

If you’re just looking for relaxing facials, with lots of rubbing and fluff, ignore this post 😆

This is for the girlies that want to see, feel and get compliments on the major improvements that can happen when you take your skincare (and overall health 😘) seriously!

🌷A Piercing Studio for the Girls🌷

Let’s be honest…walking into a random tattoo shop can be intimidating and stressful 😵‍💫 and maybe you don’t want to get pierced by a dude 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s a little different over here 😊

Fuzzy rugs, yummy smells, chill music, private studio, feminine jewelry and a very different vibe ✌🏻

The only female owned, private piercing studio on the west side specializing in women’s piercings 💕

☀️Sun Damage☀️

Pigmentation is HARD to lighten, folks. Damage doesn’t happen overnight, it doesn’t go away overnight. It’s a slow process, often which you feel like you’re seeing no results. This is why progress pics are so important!

Working on my dear friend and client
she tans so easily and is extremely freckled, making it very hard to identify what’s a freckle and what’s sun damage 😵‍💫

This only 3 peels 😱 using Professional Vitamin A Solution!

What else did she do? 🧐
💕SPF EVERY SINGLE DAY (this is absolutely imperative if you want to decrease sun damage and pigmentation issues)
💕Professional home care- she has a regimen designed for her skin!
💕Consistency- peels every month and daily home care

Excited to see her progress after another series of peels! 😍

Want to lighten sun damage and improve your skin as a whole? It’s time to invest in professional skin treatments 😘 message me to get started!

February 9, 2019

I started my life over. Opening my very first esthetics studio in my house, my tiny extra bedroom, building a clientele from the ground up while working three other part time jobs 😂

Fast forward 👉🏻 February 2026
I’m now in my fourth, fully renovated retail space, celebrating 10 years of self employment, 15 years as a licensed esthetician and two years as a body piercer 🎉

Thank you for your trust and support. The beauty industry is very difficult to build and maintain a business in, especially in difficult economic times. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning, somewhere along the last 7 years or you’re a brand new client, thank you 🙏🏻💕

Love you guys. Cheers to another year of amazing skin and gorgeous piercings 🪩💎

XXOO,
Megan

❄️Holiday Hours❄️

Hey friends, I’ll be taking a bit of time off over the next few weeks to celebrate Christmas, my birthday and New Years with family and friends.

I’m flying down to FL to surprise my parents for Christmas, I haven’t seen them for the holidays in over 6 years 😳 my business will not be priority for obvious reasons. If you have questions about your skin or piercings, I’ll be responding on my next day back. If you have a piercing that is showing signs of infection, please see your doctor as I cannot diagnose or treat an infection.

During these closed times, my notifications will be completely off. As a one woman show, it’s incredibly hard to not respond to clients whenever I have my phone in my hand. But this year, I need the time off. I was literally responding to texts on Thanksgiving this year 😣

As always, appointments can be booked or rescheduled 24/7 online!

Thank you for your love and support in what’s been an incredibly challenging year for all of us 💕🫶🏻 Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! 🍾

💎Brand New Jewelry💎

Beginning Saturday, December 13, my brand new, very limited collection of jewelry will be available 🥰

This exclusive collection of 14k white and yellow gold is dainty, feminine, sparkly and designed to be worn for years and years! Photos don’t do these pieces justice, they’re so gorgeous in person 😍

Fun fact 👇🏻
14k gold is extremely safe for long term wear, even in brand new piercings. There are fewer alloys than 18k gold, making it a great choice especially for sensitive skin 💕

Pricing varies by piece, stop in 12/13 for $50 piercings and $10 off jewelry upgrades including these new pieces 😊

💕You never need to apologize💕

I get it. We as women often apologize for things…a lot!

But you owe me no apologies!

I’m sorry if your previous piercers have ever made you feel like you needed to apologize for any of these TOTALLY NORMAL things 🙁

Good news, you found me! The only private, female owned piercing and skincare studio on Indy’s west side 🥰

Come experience piercings done differently, you won’t ever want to go back to a sketchy tattoo shop again 🫶🏻

Grab a coffee on the way to your appointment and support a new local business! ☕️
