FAQ's

For optimal waxing results, it is essential to have hair between 1/8 and 1/4 inch long, typically achieved with two to three weeks of growth after shaving or four to six weeks after the last waxing session.

To prepare for your appointment, keep your skin well-moisturized in the weeks leading up to it. However, on the day of your appointment, refrain from applying lotions, oils, or creams.

The day before your waxing session, enhance the skin's readiness by using a gentle exfoliant to eliminate dead skin cells. Avoid exfoliating within 24 hours of your appointment to prevent additional skin irritation.

Ensure that you have at least 1/8 to 1/4 inch of hair for the wax to grip effectively. Maintain well-moisturized skin in the weeks before your appointment and refrain from applying any oils, creams, or lotions on the day of the appointment.

Additionally, consult with your doctor before scheduling waxing appointments, as certain medications may make your skin too sensitive for waxing services.

EXPECTED OUTCOMES

Anticipate experiencing stubble in the initial waxes following changes in waxing providers or technicians, after shaving, or when resuming waxing after a considerable hiatus.

HANDS OFF

Refrain from touching the treated area for 24-48 hours to prevent potential germ transfer from hands. Avoid engaging in sexual activity during this period.

EMBRACE EXFOLIATION

Be an exfoliation enthusiast. Incorporating regular exfoliation not only eliminates dead skin cells but also enhances circulation, promotes skin turnover, facilitates proper absorption of moisturizers and serums, reduces the likelihood of ingrown hairs, and minimizes stubble. Use gloves unless directed otherwise.

PLAN AHEAD

Avoid swimming, including pools, beaches, lakes, or rivers for 3 days post-waxing. If planning a trip to water-related destinations, schedule your waxing appointment at least 72 hours before to protect sensitive, open pores.

LET YOUR SKIN BREATHE

Avoid tight clothing to prevent friction and irritation, which can lead to bumps, ingrown hairs, and redness. Opt for loose-fitting attire for comfort.

COOL IT DOWN

Refrain from tanning, sunbathing, sunbeds, spray tanning, hot showers, bubble baths, saunas, hot tubs, massages, or steam treatments.

SENSITIVE SKIN

Expect common reactions such as redness, histamine reactions, or folliculitis, especially during initial waxing sessions or changes in waxers. Take it easy post-service, and use aloe vera and recommended moisturizers to soothe irritation.

GLOW UP

Prioritize moisturizing your skin to counteract moisture loss caused by waxing, exfoliation, hot showers, body wash ingredients, chafing, and friction from clothes. Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water is crucial.

CHECK THE LENGTH

Wait 2-3 weeks after shaving, trimming, or using creams before booking a waxing appointment. Ideally, hair should be 1/4 inch in length, equivalent to the size of a rice grain, to avoid skin lifting and excessive stubble.

HYDRATE WITH H2O

Increase water intake, as it significantly aids in the hair removal process. Avoid consuming coffee, alcohol, pre-workout supplements, and other caffeine products before waxing to minimize sensitivity and hair resistance during the service.
