Our four best tips for pre-wax prep

1. The day of your appointment, your hair should be at least a ¼ inch long (the length of a rice grain). This allows the wax to grip around the hair.

2. First wax? We recommend not shaving for at least two weeks prior to your reservation.

3. After your first wax, we suggest you wax every three to four weeks.

4. Then go home and throw your razors away, because you’ll never want to shave again!

1. CLEANSING

First, we'll cleanse the area to remove any makeup, oils or lotions that would prevent the wax from properly adhering to the hair.

2. PROTECTION

Next, we protect your skin with our soothing pre-wax oil.|

3. THE SECRET IS IN THE WAX

Then we apply wax that is kept at a warm bath water temperature. Hard wax (also referred to as a strip-less wax), gets its name from the way the wax cools and hardens after it's applied to your skin. The wax is then removed without the use of a cloth strip.

4. REJUVENATION

Finally, we rejuvenate the area by applying our after-waxing products, like our hair minimizing body lotions and serums (if needed).

Our after-wax collection has targeted formulas that work to banish bumps and help prevent and clear ingrown hairs while also calming and nourishing your skin. These deluxe products are available in store for purchase.

Well, it sort of depends on your mindset, your general tolerance for discomfort, and whether or not you stay on schedule.

Everyone's different, but our clients have said waxing for hair removal is virtually painless thanks to our waxing techniques. And following your bikini wax, your Wax Specialist will provide you with some post-wax home care tips.
