Pain levels can vary from person to person and also depend on the area being waxed. Generally, waxing involves some level of discomfort as the hair is removed from the root. However, many people find that the sensation lessens over time as they become accustomed to the process and as hair grows back finer. Additionally, using techniques like breathing exercises or taking over-the-counter pain relievers before waxing can help minimize discomfort. Choosing an experienced esthetician and opting for high-quality wax can also contribute to a more comfortable experience.

To prepare for a waxing appointment, follow these steps:

Ensure your hair is at the optimal length: Hair should be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch long for best results. Avoid shaving or trimming the area for at least two weeks prior to your appointment.

Exfoliate: Gently exfoliate the area a day or two before your appointment to remove dead skin cells. This can help prevent ingrown hairs and ensure a smoother waxing experience.

Cleanse the skin: On the day of your appointment, cleanse the area thoroughly with a gentle, non-comedogenic cleanser to remove any oils, sweat, or lotions. Avoid applying any creams or lotions immediately before waxing, as they can interfere with the wax adhering to the hair.

Manage pain: If you're concerned about discomfort, consider taking an over-the-counter pain reliever about 30 minutes before your appointment. Additionally, practicing deep breathing or other relaxation techniques during the waxing process can help minimize discomfort.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing: Choose clothing that won't rub against the waxed area after your appointment to avoid irritation. Loose-fitting clothing can also help prevent friction and allow your skin to breathe.

Communicate with your esthetician: Be sure to communicate any concerns or preferences with your esthetician before the waxing begins. They can provide guidance and ensure you have the best possible experience.

By following these steps, you can help ensure a successful waxing appointment with minimal discomfort.

The duration of results from a waxing session can vary depending on factors such as your hair growth cycle, the area being waxed, and your individual hair growth rate. In general:

Facial areas: Results typically last around 2-4 weeks before hair starts to regrow noticeably.

Body areas: Results can last anywhere from 3-6 weeks before hair regrowth becomes noticeable.

It's important to note that with regular waxing over time, hair can grow back finer and sparser, which may extend the time between waxing sessions. Additionally, factors like hormonal changes, medications, and genetics can influence hair growth patterns.

Maintaining a regular waxing schedule can help prolong the time between sessions and ensure smoother, longer-lasting results.

We use Satin Smooth products for all our waxing services.

We use both hard wax and soft was for waxing services. Each wax is used from different types of waxing services.

Hard Wax:

Application: Hard wax is applied in a thick layer directly onto the skin and allowed to cool and harden before being removed without the use of cloth strips.

Ideal for: Hard wax is typically preferred for sensitive areas or areas with coarse hair, such as the bikini area, underarms, and face. It adheres mainly to the hair, making it less painful than soft wax when removing hair from sensitive areas.

Less Irritation: Hard wax is less likely to cause irritation or damage to the skin because it adheres only to the hair and not the skin.

Soft Wax:

Application: Soft wax is applied in a thin layer onto the skin and removed using cloth strips. It adheres to both the hair and the skin.

Ideal for: Soft wax is commonly used for larger areas of the body such as the legs, arms, and back, where hair is finer and less dense.

Efficiency: Soft wax is often preferred for larger areas because it can remove hair more quickly than hard wax.

Our estheticians may also use a combination of both types of wax for different areas during a single waxing session to achieve the best results.

Yes, you can still get waxed while on your period. However, it's essential to communicate this to your esthetician beforehand.

If you're comfortable with it, our estheticians are trained to perform waxing services during menstruation. They'll ensure that you're appropriately covered and provide you with any necessary accommodations to make you feel comfortable during the procedure.

Additionally, keep in mind that some people may be more sensitive to pain during their menstrual cycle, so you may want to take this into consideration when scheduling your waxing appointment.

Ensure your hair is at the optimal length: Hair should be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch long for best results. Avoid shaving or trimming the area for at least two weeks prior to your appointment.

We require all waxing clients be at least 18 years of age for waxing services.
