Frequently Asked Questions
What hair length is appropriate for waxing?
Hair should be at least ¼ inch long (about the length of a grain of rice) for effective waxing. Ideally, hair can be up to ½ inch long. This length allows the wax to properly grip the hair and remove it from the follicle.
What should I know about Brazilian waxing, especially if it’s my first time?
Brazilian waxing removes most or all hair from the bikini area. If it’s your first time, proper preparation and knowing what to expect can help make the experience more comfortable. We’re happy to walk you through the process and answer any questions before your appointment.
How often should I return for waxing?
For best results, waxing should be done regularly every 3 to 5 weeks, depending on your hair growth and skin type. Hair should be at least 2 mm long at the time of your appointment.
What should I avoid before waxing?
Please avoid:
Tanning or sun exposure
Shaving
Trimming the hair too short
These can make waxing less effective or irritate the skin.
What should I avoid after waxing?
For 24 to 48 hours after your wax:
Keep the area clean
Avoid heat, friction, sweating, and tight clothing
Skip hot baths, saunas, and intense workouts
This helps prevent irritation and ingrown hairs.
What are the benefits of waxing?
Waxing removes hair from the root, resulting in smoother skin that lasts longer than shaving. It’s suitable for all skin types and skin tones and can lead to finer regrowth over time.
Are there areas that should not be waxed?
Yes. Waxing should be avoided on skin that is:
Irritated or inflamed
Cut or broken
Sunburned
If you’re unsure, please ask before your appointment.
Should I wax or tan first?
Always wax first, then tan.
How long should I wait to tan after waxing?
Wait at least 24 hours after waxing before tanning to avoid irritation and uneven results.
How long should I stay out of the sun after waxing?
Avoid sun exposure on waxed areas for 24 to 48 hours to allow the skin to heal properly.
How long does a wax last?
Results vary depending on your hair growth cycle and consistency, but most clients enjoy smooth skin for 3 to 5 weeks.
