Question 1

How long does the hair need to be for waxing?

Accepted Answer

Your hair needs to be 1/4 an inch long, length of a grain of rice or pinchable with the tip of your fingers (not your finger nails). If the hair is not long enough when you come in for your service, I can't guarentee that all the hairs will be able to be picked up by the wax.

Question 2

What do I need to do to prepare for a wax?

Accepted Answer

1. Make sure that the hair is long enough. No you do not need to trim.
2. Exfoliate, moisturize and drink plenty of water. Avoid too much caffeine the day of.
3. Take an ibuprofen if you are worried about pain. 
4. Come in with clean skin and no lotion right before your wax.

Question 3

How do I care for my wax at home?

Accepted Answer

Exfoliate every few days. I always recommend a sugar scrub or salt scrub. Apply on dry skin before getting in the shower to make it more scrubby. Avoid using loofas and old wash clothes, as they harbor bacteria and can increase your chances of ingrowns.
Beware that tight fitting clothes, such as leggings or non breathable fabrics can increase your chance of ingrowns. 
Use a moisturizer daily.
Be regular with your waxes. Every 3-5 weeks is best. 
Avoiding tanning, exercise, hot tubs and intercourse for the first 24 hours.

Question 4

How long will my wax last?

Accepted Answer

Everyone's hair grows at different rates. What I can guarantee is that it comes in fewer, sparse, and softer. You'll slowly begin to see hairs here and there grow back within the first couple of weeks. When you come back in around 4 weeks it's usually about half as much hair as your initial visit. This makes it half as painful and easier for both you and me!

Question 5

What kind of wax do you use?

Accepted Answer

I use only hard wax. It is great for all skin types and especially sensitve skin to ensure that the waxing is as painless and as comfortable as possible. Hard wax adheres only to the hairs, not the skin. I use only the best quality wax with the best ingredients on the market.

Question 6

What if I find a couple of missed hairs after my wax?

Accepted Answer

I try my best to never let this happen, but it can happen unfortunately. I offer touch ups within the 5 days after your wax appointment. Don't feel bad to ask for a touch up if needed! (No free touch ups after 5 days). It is normal to have a few hairs on occasion  pop up from under the skin. They may have been trapped under the skin prior to exfoliating with the wax or a new growth cycle is coming in.
