Get answers to common questions about Brow Shaping & Upper Lip.

Appointments typically take 20 to 30 minutes; first-timers or clients with significant regrowth may need extra consultation and shaping. Expect a quick, comfortable service with professional guidance and clear aftercare instructions.

Most clients feel mild discomfort during waxing, but it is brief and tolerable. Experienced technicians use gentle technique and pre/post care to minimize pain, and topical numbing can be discussed for very sensitive clients.

Avoid exfoliating or strong retinol products 48 to 72 hours before your appointment, and let hair grow at least 1/4 inch for effective waxing. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin and communicate any medications or sensitivities.

Results vary by hair growth, but most clients enjoy smooth brows and lip area for two to six weeks. Regular waxing can extend intervals and improve hair texture over time.

Certain medications and topical treatments can increase sensitivity or risk, including retinoids, Accutane, and blood thinners. Inform your esthetician about prescriptions or recent procedures; we may postpone, perform a patch test, or recommend alternatives.

Avoid heat, saunas, heavy sweating, and sun exposure for 24 to 48 hours. Apply a soothing gel or aloe, keep the area clean, and avoid makeup or exfoliation until irritation subsides.
