Ideally hair should be about a quarter inch (around 6 mm) long so the wax can grip. If it’s shorter, wait 10–14 days; if longer, a light trim before the appointment helps comfort and results.

No. Waxing pulls hair from the root, which generally leads to finer, sparser regrowth over time. Hormones affect results, but waxing does not make hair darker or permanently thicker.

Most clients return every 4–6 weeks depending on individual growth cycles. Regular waxing creates more consistent, softer regrowth and makes maintenance easier; your esthetician will recommend a personalized schedule.

Some discomfort is normal, especially on the first appointment, but our technicians use quick techniques, soothing waxes, and calming aftercare to minimize pain. Breathing and relaxation also help during the service.

Avoid waxing on sunburned, irritated, or broken skin. For sensitive skin, inform your technician so we can perform a patch test and use gentle products or recommend an alternative if needed.

Keep the area clean and avoid hot baths, heavy exercise, tanning, and exfoliation for 24–48 hours. Use a soothing lotion or aloe as recommended and exfoliate gently after 48 hours to prevent ingrown hairs.
