After a wax, your hair follicles are open for the first 24 hours. It’s important to follow the rules below to prevent any bacteria from getting in your hair follicles, this will ensure the smoothest results possible. It is normal to have a little redness or tenderness after waxing.

For those prone to ingrown hairs, we recommend exfoliating with a and using one of our ingrown hair treatments daily.

As a consistent waxer, your hair will become noticeably softer, finer, and over time sparser. Book your next wax 5-6 weeks after your appointment for smoothest results. You’re welcome to come in sooner, but due to hair cycles you may be left with unwanted stubble.

To give you the smoothest results possible, your hair should be at least ¼ of an inch long. That’s usually at least two weeks since shaving or 4-6 weeks since waxing. If your hair is too short the wax may not adhere.

For the best results, exfoliate your skin 1 day before your appointment to get rid of dead skin and prepare your hair follicles for removal.

Loose clothing lets your skin breathe. Ditch your party clothes for your sweats!

Steer clear of stimulants such as alcohol or caffeine before your wax which can make your skin more sensitive. Everyone’s pain tolerance is different. If you’re worried, some clients choose to take a Tylenol or Advil 30 minutes before their appointment to take the edge off.

Schedule your wax 3-4 days before a big event to give your skin time to chill. If you’re a waxing newbie and want to go bare for a special event (like your wedding) we recommend waxing 2-3 times before your big day.

There are many benefits to waxing when compared to other hair removal methods. Using creams or shaving only removes the hair on the surface of the skin and your hair will grow back within a couple of days. Re-growth can cause ingrown hairs and itchiness. Shaving can lead to nicks and cuts on the skin, particularly in difficult to shave areas such as the knees or underarm. Harsh chemicals used in hair removal creams can damage sensitive skin, and create mixed results. Waxing is a long-term hair removal method. Hair that is waxed is removed from the roots and will not grow back for 2 to 4 weeks depending on your hair growth.

Prepare by carefully trimming your hair to about 1/2 inch or less (leave enough hair for the wax to hold onto, no less than 1/4 inch). When preparing for your Bikini, Brazilian or Thong wax, gently loofah or exfoliate your bikini line the night before. This helps with ingrown hairs and aids in a speedy removal. Waxing dry skin can be painful! Keep your skin moisturized. If you have a numbing cream you can apply it 45 minutes before the appointment to assure the area being waxed is numb. Taking Advil 30 minutes prior to your appointment can be helpful in relieving pain.

It's always best to ask your doctor if you have any questions. Skip the wax if you are on an oral acne medication such as Accutane or have used it in the past 6 months. If you use prescribed creams such as Differin, Retin-A or any Retinoids, the surrounding area cannot be waxed within 7 days of product application. Waxing on these medications can cause your skin to lift.
