This may seem like we coincidentally matched our today but secretly Sierra checked our security cameras before coming in 👀
Matching with your work bestie is serious work, maybe as serious as taking this selfie was (which we sat on the floor to get the right lighting - see our story for the Telus chronicles 😅)
Have a safe & Happy Halloween from all of us at BE 🎃
The two of us have always been big fans of Halloween & LOVE any excuse to play dress up. Now that we’ve expanded and have staff, this year was even more fun with a big group costume (we’re SO fetch). And trust us when we say, we are already planning for next year 😅
Tell us some of your favourite group costumes in the comments below 👇🏼
“Hey everyone! 👋 My name is Pagan & I’m the new sugar hair removal expert at BE. I am 30 years old & I completed my aesthetics training 11 years ago at St. Lawrence College in Kingston and have been sugaring for the past 5 years 🧖🏼♀️. I am married with two fur babies, a rabbit and a horse. I’m a Leo ♌️ and my favourite colours are yellow and purple. My favourite food is anything Mexican 🌮 & I’m addicted to the season Fall 🍂.

Behind everything we do - even our Instagram posts - is someone cheering us on & supporting us 🎉
Swipe to see our dadager (dad/manager) in action 😅📸
If you saw our recent reel we were obviously kidding. If there’s a chance to match our we are ALWAYS going to take it 🦄🦄
Sadly our FIGS didn’t arrive before launch day but we figure it’s better late than never to share how beautiful the new Lilac Dawn & Deep Reef colours are.
We took these pics to show the difference between the new dark harbour & navy … but really we used it as an excuse to go get lunch. Now that’s what we call a business write-off 😂
Who else feels like the only times they can catch up with their work bestie is the 5 minutes in between patients when you’re cleaning the room 😅
Also codes are back! Use AshleighCFIRSTFIGS and SierraHFIRSTFIGS for a discount on your first order 🎉
It’s almost been one month since we got home from our amazing time at the retreat in Ojai, California. We know so many of you have been asking about it and for us to share more about it... but we are truly still recovering from the awesomeness of it all. But we thought we'd share a glimpse today (much more to come).
We always dreamed that we could become ambassadors but never imagined an opportunity like this. Travelling after 2 years of so much stress and isolation was weird but never once did we feel like our health and safety wasn't a priority.
We wore masks throughout travelling and upon arrival FIGS took us to an amazing testing centre where they had food, drinks (where we joked that we would have been happy enough just staying there the whole retreat) & we got to meet many of the we'd connected with since becoming ambassadors IN PERSON!!!!
Over the next several days we had the chance to laugh, cry, dance, sing, do yoga, craft and eat amazing food. Oh, and Ashleigh rode a bike for the first time in years! Honestly, we can't get over the incredible feelings of being recharged and reconnected after this Adult Summer Camp a.k.a
Thank you to community leaders who worked tirelessly to put this amazing event on:
.hash
& THANK YOU to our fellow Canadian 🇨🇦 for leading us in one of the most beautiful experiences we've ever had.
So much gratitude goes to & .spear for envisioning a truly one of a kind, incredible company that is so much more than scrubs.
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of the & we miss you all so much already.
And to all our fellow FIGS ambassador friends (especially the Canadian crew). We are so honoured to call you our family.

We don’t know what’s cuter, our new patio furniture or the new colour launch in Lilac Dew or Bonsai.
Swipe to see how happy Sierra is taking pictures of Ashleigh 😂
Apparently Wednesday was “National Best Friend” day and we honestly missed it because for us… every single day is Best Friend day 😉
Also it just us or do you never have any pictures with your bestie? 😭 Enjoy a montage of our varying hairstyles throughout the years 😅
We find in creating a brave space for people to come and just BE ✌🏼🌈
Healthcare workers everywhere are tasked with creating safe, therapeutic spaces for their patients and often in the beauty industry, this gets overlooked. By marketing towards one cookie cutter demographic, the industry limits what is regarded as beautiful and our whole mission at BE is to change that.
We strive to find Beauty in Everyone by allowing you to BE you!
The physical space we have created in our clinic is meant to allow for safe and therapeutic access to ALL... today and every day (unless you’re an as***le, then byeeeee).
Today, launched their PRIDE collection & it is everythinggggg! To quote our new bestie .dvm “charcoal is back and she’s gayer than ever”!
On top of it all, will be donating $25K to an incredible organization- GLMA- whose mission is to support equality for LGBTQIA+ healthcare professionals and their patients.
What better way to celebrate earth day than the launch of F***x sustainable scrubs?! 🌎
The medical aesthetics industry isn’t known for being sustainable (hello single use EVERYTHING 💉) but it is constantly on the forefront of our minds to implement earth friendly items & sustainable practices.
One of our favourite ways to help with the reduction of waste is through our skincare bottle recycling program. If you have purchased skincare from us in the past you can return your empty bottles and we will give you 15% off your next skincare purchase! ♻️
Also is it just me or does it seem weird to post a picture of one of us without the other?!
Something we pride ourselves on is keeping it real with you. This little business is our entire livelihood and we have built our practice from the ground up. The past 2 years have been incredibly hard for small business (especially those of us in "personal care") but we are so grateful for the opportunity to stick around and continue to grow, despite intense hardships (and many many tears).
So, today is part appreciation post for all of you who support us, cheer us on, and trust us with your faces; but it's also part check-in as we've had several last minute cancellations of training/appointments and even a couple no-shows and missed appointments in recent weeks!
Every time you shop with us or choose us for your treatments, we truly do a happy dance. But the reverse is also true... every time someone cancels at the last minute or doesn't show up for an appointment, it breaks our hearts a little (and costs us money).
We put everything into this business, we try to show up as authentically as we can and we are always striving to provide you with superior care and service. We aren't sure what the solution is but we wanted to be open and honest and tell you how excited we are to keep growing but also to say.... we are people who rely on this business. We know life happens but please show us the decency of calling to let us know if you can't make it to an appointment or training!
As a result of the past couple weeks, we are re-evaluating our booking process so if you want to stay up to date on all things BE. Make sure you're signed up for our mailing list!
Thank you to all who love & support us... the feeling is mutual.

Come along as I get the clinic ready for the day to see patients ✨ Watch until the end for a special guest appearance 😍 #getreadywithme #medicalaesthetics #nurseinjector #nursesofinstagram #medicalspa #dysport #botox #xeomin #dermalfillers #smallbusinessowner #downtownbarrie #barriebusiness #cosmeticclinic #wearfigs #awesomehumans
Your drive home after seeing us for neuromodulator treatment should look a lot like this 😂😂😂 For those of you who are confused… we take your injection aftercare very seriously at BE! If you’ve been a patient of ours, you know that at the end of your appointment we give you specific instructions every time, because aftercare matters & can potentially change the outcome of the treatment (for the worse) 😭 Here are our ✨golden rules✨ post neuromodulator injections: ⚠️ Move your facial muscles for the next hour! To put it plainly & even though it may seem silly, the movement of the muscles allows for the neuromodulator to be “absorbed” in the area we inject ⚠️ Keep your head upright for at least 3 hours! We know it sounds dramatic, but we wouldn’t want gravity to pull the neuromodulator into any place we don’t intend it to be! (hello droopy eyelid 😱) ⚠️ Don’t rub/touch your face for 6 hours. See point above… we wouldn’t want you to potentially spread the neuromodulator into any unwanted area. Also, by poking your skin, we’ve created new points of entry for bacteria & infection risk is highest for the first couple of hours after injections ⚠️ Avoid blood thinning agents & exercise for 24 hours. Anything that can thin the blood (like Advil, Aspirin, alcohol, omegas, etc…) will increase your risk for bruising. Also, in theory if you bleed more, you risk the neuromodulator moving somewhere we don’t want it to go! #cosmeticinjectables #medicalaesthetics #botoxbarrie #botoxtoronto #botoxeducation #nurseinjector #barriebeauty #cosmeticnurseinjector #downtownbarriebusiness #nurseentrepreneur #ceobesties #nursememes #shoplocalbarrie #dysport #xeomin® #botox #medicalspa
