Before Your Visit

• For best results, your hair should be approximately 1/4" long, which is typically 2-3 weeks of growth.
• For the first time, it's better that you trim the hair slightly.  This will help to make the waxing treatment less painful.
• Please let us know, if you have had any problems with your waxing treatments in the past.
• Avoid the sun and/or tanning beds 2 days before and after your waxing treatment.
• Exfoliate the are that is going to be waxed, preferably with a dry loofah or exfoliating gloves 1 day before your appointment (excluding the face).  When exfoliating, use circular movements going against the hair growth.  This can help revent ingrown hairs and make the waxing treatment more effective.
• Take Ibuprofen or Advil 1 hour before your waxing treatment to help reduce pain.
• Do not drink caffeine the day of your waxing treatment.
• Do not apply moisturixer prior to your waxing treatment.
• Do not wax after a Laser Resurfacing or Chemical Peel.
• If you are prone to have Gastridious Heart Burn (Gastric Acid).  This can change the skin PH level to be more acidic; sometimes resulting in a burn or causing the skin to lift during the waxing process.  We recommend that you take an anti-acid 45 minutes prior to your wax treatment to help prevent any side effects.
• No waxing service can be performed if ou are using:  Accutane (no wax for at least 6 months after using), Retin-A, Retinal, Glycolic Acid, Renova, Salicylic Acid, Avage, Apricot Scrub, Neutrogena Scrub, Avita, Strivectin, Tazorac, ProActive, Benzoyl Peroxide. 

What to Expect

• Waxing Treatment can last any where from 5 minutes to 30 minutes, depending on the area being waxed.  A Brazilian can be done in 15 minutes, but if it's your first time it can take longer.
• It can discomfort more the first time than any other time because you are pulling out 100% of the hair.  Your nerves are on edge, and you don't know what to expect, but it's a quick sting that stops hurting almost immediately after.
• If you are getting a Bikini wax, we provide a disposable thong to wear, unless you prefer to wear your undergarment.
• If you are getting a Brazilian wax, we provide a modest drape prior to treatment if needed.
• If you are doing underarms or legs, we will require you to remove any garments that maybe in the way, but we will give you a smock if needed.

After Your Visit

• Always use sunblock.
• Don't apply deodorant to newly waxed underarms.
• Don't use products containing alcohol or perfume.
• Don't exercise for 24 hours after a bikini, brazilian, chest or back wax.
• Don't wear anything tight on any area just waxed.
• Don't shower or bate with very hot water for 24 hours or until the redness subsides.
• Waiting at least 48 hours before exfoliating areas that have been waxed.

Your Next Visit

• Rebooking for your next visit!
• Keeping a regular waxing schedule helps maintain your hair growth and reduces some of the pain that can involved with your first waxing.
• If you're planning a special occasion with your significant other, be sure to leave plenty of time after your waxing to allow for any unforseen circumstances (breakouts, redness, swelling, etc.)
• If your skin is sensitive prior to and during your menstrual cycle, you may want to avoid waxing.  However, if you don't mind, we don't either.
• Hair grows in 3 stages and it can take up to 4 waxing treatments before all of the hair is on the same growth cycle.  Waxing may last from 1-6 weeks.  The more you wax the longer it may last.  However, if you last hair removal was shaving, your first wax post shaving will not last as long.  Please don't shave in between waxing.
• Your rate of hair growth is unique to you, can be anywhere from 10 days to 3 weeks.
• We recommend waxing every 4-5 weeks.  In order to keep the hair coming in at a reduced rate, it's best not to go past 6 weeks before your next wax.
