Arrive with clean, dry skin free of lotions. Trim longer hair if needed to about quarter-inch. Avoid caffeine and heavy exercise before the appointment. We’ll discuss allergies, recent treatments, and any sensitivities to ensure a safe, comfortable service.

Some discomfort is normal, especially on sensitive areas, but our expert technique and topical numbing options minimize pain. Pain typically lessens with regular waxing as hair thins. We provide aftercare to soothe skin and reduce irritation post-treatment.

Most clients enjoy smoothness for three to six weeks depending on hair growth cycles and individual hormones. With consistent waxing, regrowth often becomes finer and slower, extending time between appointments.

Pregnancy is generally safe for waxing, though sensitivity and circulation change. Inform your esthetician about pregnancy or breastfeeding; we may avoid numbing agents. Some clients experience increased discomfort, so we adapt technique and offer extra care for safety and comfort.

Before: exfoliate gently a day or two prior, avoid retinoids, and don’t tan. After: avoid hot baths, tight clothing, sun exposure, and exfoliate gently after 48 hours. Use recommended soothing products and follow our aftercare instructions to prevent irritation and ingrown hairs.

Book appointments every 3 to 6 weeks based on your natural growth rate. Establishing a routine allows hair to weaken over time, reduces pain, and often leads to longer-lasting smoothness. Our staff helps personalize the schedule for optimal outcomes.
