We’re Here To Listen 

If You Have Sensitive Skin Or Any Concerns, Just Let Your Esthetician Know. We’ll Customize The Experience To Suit Your Needs And Ensure Your Comfort.

Length Matters  

Make Sure Your Hair Is About ¼ Inch Long. If It’s Too Short, Waxing May Not Be As Effective, But If It’s Too Long, It Might Be A Bit More Uncomfortable. 

Don’t Skip The Scrub 

Gently Exfoliate The Area 24 To 48 Hours Before Your Appointment To Remove Dead Skin Cells And Help Prevent Ingrown Hairs. 

Let Your Skin Breathe 

Skip The Lotions, Oils, Or Creams On The Day Of Your Appointment. These Can Get In The Way Of The Wax Sticking Properly. 

Protect Your Skin, Say No To The Sun 

Try To Avoid Tanning Or Sun Exposure For 48 Hours Before Your Appointment, As These Can Make Your Skin More Sensitive. 

Prioritize Comfort 

If You’re Worried About Discomfort, It Might Help To Take An Over-The-Counter Pain Reliever About 30 Minutes Before Your Session. 

Hydration = Skin Perfection 

Drink Plenty Of Water Before Your Appointment. Well-Hydrated Skin Is Happier Skin! 

How Long Does Waxing Take? 

Waxing Services Typically Range From 10 Minutes To 60 Minutes, Depending On The Area Being Treated. Smaller Areas, Such As The Eyebrows, May Take As Little As 10 Minutes, While Full-Body Waxing Services Are The Longest, Typically Taking 60 Minutes. For Specific Time Estimates For All Our Services, Please Visit Our Booking Page, Where The Expected Duration For Each Service Is Outlined. 

Your Comfort, Our Priority 

Your Comfort Is Our Top Concern. Please Let Us Know If You Have Any Concerns Or Discomfort Before Or During Your Appointment So We Can Adjust Accordingly. 

Pre-Wax Comfort 

If You’re Concerned About Discomfort, We Recommend Taking An Over-The-Counter Pain Reliever (Such As Ibuprofen) About 30 Minutes Before Your Appointment, Unless Advised Otherwise By Your Doctor. This Can Help Reduce Sensitivity And Make The Experience More Comfortable. 

Timing Matters 

While You’re Always Welcome To Schedule Your Waxing Session During Your Menstrual Cycle, We Recommend Doing So When You’re Feeling Most At Ease, As Skin Can Sometimes Be More Sensitive During This Time. Regardless, We’re Here To Make Sure Your Experience Is As Comfortable As Possible. 

Relax, We’ve Got This 

Tension Can Make Waxing Feel More Uncomfortable, But Don’t Worry – We’ve Got You Covered. Take A Few Deep Breaths, And Let Us Handle The Rest. The More Relaxed You Are, The Easier The Process Will Be. We’ll Guide You Every Step Of The Way In A Calm And Supportive Atmosphere To Help You Feel At Ease Throughout Your Treatment. 

The Ideal Frequency For Waxing Appointments Depends On Your Body’s Natural Hair Growth Cycle And Your Personal Goals. Typically, We Recommend Scheduling Your Sessions Every 4 To 6 Weeks To Achieve The Best Results.  

During The First Few Appointments, You May Notice That Hair Regrows At Different Rates, So Spacing Your Appointments Within This Timeframe Helps To Maintain Consistent Smoothness. As You Continue With Regular Waxing, The Hair Growth Will Become Finer And Slower, Which May Allow For More Flexibility In The Timing Of Future Appointments. 

Your Provider Can Offer Personalized Recommendations Based On Your Hair Growth Pattern, The Area Being Waxed, And Your Preferences.

ingrown Hairs Can Sometimes Occur After Waxing, But With The Right Care, You Can Significantly Reduce Your Chances Of Developing Them. Here’s How To Keep Your Skin Smooth And Healthy: 

Exfoliate Regularly 

Gently Exfoliate The Waxed Area 2-3 Times A Week, Starting 48-72 Hours After Your Session. Use A Mild Exfoliant Or Soft Brush To Remove Dead Skin Cells And Help Free Any Hairs Trapped Under The Skin. 

Keep Skin Hydrated 

Moisturize The Waxed Area Daily With A Gentle, Fragrance-Free Lotion Or Oil. Hydrated Skin Is More Elastic And Less Prone To Irritation Or Bumps. 

Avoid Tight Clothing 

For At Least 48 Hours After Waxing, Wear Loose-Fitting Clothing To Reduce Friction And Prevent Irritation. Tight Fabrics Can Trap Sweat, Causing Friction That Increases The Risk Of Ingrown Hairs. 

Don’t Touch Or Pick At The Area 

Avoid Touching Or Picking At The Waxed Area, Especially With Unwashed Hands. This Can Introduce Bacteria And Increase The Risk Of Infection Or Irritation, Which May Lead To Ingrown Hairs. 

Wear Sunscreen 

Always Apply Sunscreen To Exposed Areas After Waxing To Prevent Skin Damage And Hyperpigmentation. Freshly Waxed Skin Is More Sensitive To UV Rays, Which Can Cause Inflammation And Promote Ingrown Hairs. 

Stay Consistent With Appointments 

Regular Waxing Helps To Thin Out Hair Over Time, Which Can Reduce The Likelihood Of Hair Growing Back In Different Directions And Becoming Ingrown. 

No, Waxing Does Not Cause Your Hair To Grow Back Thicker Or Darker, Despite This Being A Common Misconception. When You Wax, The Hair Is Removed From The Root, Resetting The Hair Growth Cycle. As A Result, Your Regrowth May Initially Appear Finer Or Softer. 

With Consistent Waxing, Many Clients Notice Their Hair Growing Back More Sparsely, With A Finer Texture. This Is Due To Regular Waxing Weakening The Hair Follicle, Leading To Finer Regrowth Over Time. 

Hair Color And Texture Are Primarily Determined By Genetics And Hormones, So Waxing Will Not Affect These Traits. The Regrowth You Experience Will Typically Be Finer And Softer After Repeated Sessions. 

Heat Is Not Your Friend 

Avoid Hot Showers, Saunas, Tanning Beds, And Heavy Workouts For 24-48 Hours To Prevent Irritation And Excess Sweating, Which Can Clog Pores And Lead To Breakouts. 

Keep It Clean, Keep It Simple 

Gently Cleanse The Waxed Area With Mild Soap And Lukewarm Water. Avoid Scrubbing Or Exfoliating For At Least 48 Hours To Prevent Irritation And Allow The Skin To Heal. 

Post-Wax Peace Of Mind 

Experiencing Redness, Slight Swelling, Or Mild Irritation Is Normal And Should Subside Within 24-48 Hours. However, If Discomfort Persists Or Worsens, Don’t Hesitate To Reach Out. 

Touch-Free Zone 

Avoid Touching The Waxed Area, Especially With Unwashed Hands, To Prevent Introducing Bacteria. Resist The Urge To Pick At Ingrown Hairs Or Bumps, As This Can Lead To Irritation, Infection, Or Scarring. 

Comfy Is The New Chic 

Opt For Loose-Fitting, Breathable Clothing To Reduce Friction And Irritation. Avoid Tight Jeans Or Synthetic Fabrics That Can Trap Heat And Sweat. 

Moisturized Skin = Silky Smooth Skin 

Hydrate Your Skin Daily With A Gentle, Fragrance-Free Moisturizer To Lock In Moisture And Keep Your Skin Soft And Smooth. Regular Moisturizing Helps Prevent Dryness And Irritation While Promoting Healthy Skin Recovery After Waxing. 

Gentle Scrub, Stunning Results 

To Help Prevent Ingrown Hairs, Gently Exfoliate The Area 2-3 Times A Week Starting 48 Hours After Your Waxing Session. Use A Mild Exfoliant Or Soft Brush To Keep Skin Smooth. 

SPF: Your Skin’s BFF  

Apply Sunscreen To Exposed Areas To Prevent Hyperpigmentation, As Freshly Waxed Skin Can Be More Sensitive To Uv Rays. 

Remember, These Are General Aftercare Guidelines. Your Provider Will Offer Personalized Recommendations Based On Your Skin Type And The Area Waxed, So Be Sure To Follow Their Advice For The Best Results. 

Certain Medications And Skin Conditions Can Affect Your Skin’s Sensitivity, Which May Influence Your Ability To Safely Receive Waxing Treatments. 

Some Medications, Particularly Those For Acne Or Hormonal Treatments, Can Make Your Skin More Sensitive And Prone To Irritation. If You’re On Such Medications, It’s Important To Consult Your Healthcare Provider To Determine If Pausing Them Before Your Appointment Is Necessary To Minimize The Risk Of Irritation Or Other Adverse Reactions. 

If You Have A Skin Condition Like Eczema, Psoriasis, Or Rosacea, Waxing May Not Be Suitable For Those Areas, As It Could Irritate Or Worsen The Condition. 

Please Disclose Any Medications And Skin Conditions On Your Intake Forms And To Your Esthetician. This Allows Us To Recommend Any Necessary Adjustments To Ensure Your Safety And Comfort. 

If You’re Uncertain About Any Concerns, We Recommend Scheduling A Complimentary Pre-Treatment Consultation To Assess Your Specific Needs.
