Most clients feel a brief, sharp sensation during removal, but it’s quick. Results typically last four to six weeks depending on individual hair growth. Regular waxing often reduces discomfort over time as regrowth becomes finer and softer.

Come with clean, dry skin free of makeup and lip products. Hair should be roughly 1/4 inch for best results. Avoid aggressive exfoliants or retinol several days beforehand, and inform your technician of any sensitivities or medications.

You may experience mild redness, tenderness, or tiny bumps for a few hours to a day. Apply soothing gel or aloe for comfort. Avoid sun exposure, hot showers, and heavy makeup immediately afterward to reduce irritation and infection risk.

Many prescription treatments like retinoids, acids, or acne medications increase sensitivity and can cause tearing. Please discontinue such products as advised by your dermatologist before waxing, and notify your technician to determine a safe timeline.

Most clients return every four to six weeks as hair regrowth varies. With consistent waxing, hair often grows back finer and sparser, which can extend intervals. Your technician will recommend a personalized schedule based on your growth pattern.

Avoid sun, exfoliation, and heavy makeup for 24–48 hours. Use a gentle, fragrance-free soothing gel or aloe to calm skin. If bumps or ingrown hairs appear, apply a warm compress and consult your technician for safe treatments.
