FAQ About Waxing

FAQ About Waxing

What are the benefits of waxing?

  • Slow hair regrowth compared to shaving and depilatory creams, plus, the more often you have it done the slower the hairs regrow between every treatment. (Hair regrowth starts to show after two weeks when you first begin having waxing, but after a year the regrowth may be 6-8 weeks).

  • No shadowy black spots on the skin were the hair is starting to regrow

  • Smooth and soft finish.

  • Fast removal.

  • Hairs grow back finer the more you have the treatment.

  • No more cutting yourself and getting scabs!

Before Getting Waxed

Before getting waxed:

  • For body waxing, it is highly recommended that the hair be ¼ inch long. Approximately 3 weeks worth of growth. You will have the most effective wax if you wait this long because every hair is in different growth stages. From there, depending on hair growth rate, 4-6 weeks is recommended for your following wax.

  • 2-3 weeks is the most effective facial waxing span of time. (But everyone is different.)

  • Lightly exfoliate skin a day before waxing.

  • On day of waxing, refrain from using lotion or greasy oils from areas that you want waxed.

  • Some clients take ibuprofen to reduce sensitivity and inflammation 30 min before their appointment.

After Getting Waxed

  • Avoid sun exposure or beds for 24 hours.

  • If you tend to be really sensitive avoid chlorinated water. Chlorine will dry out and irritate skin.

  • 48 hrs after waxing, start lightly exfoliating area. Waxing pulls hair out by the root so when it grows back it grows in finer and if you have dead skin blocking hair and it will cause ingrown.

  • Moisturize area, stay away from scented lotions.

  • If you are still feeling irritated later in the day, apply hydrocortisone to area.
