Hair should be about 1/4 inch (6 mm) long for effective waxing. If longer, we may trim briefly; if shorter, waxing might be less effective. Your technician will assess and advise to ensure optimal results and comfort.

Some discomfort is normal, but our estheticians use quick strips and soothing techniques to minimize pain. Pre-treatment exfoliation, avoiding caffeine, and breathing techniques can help. We also apply calming post-wax oils to reduce redness and sensitivity.

Most clients enjoy smoothness for three to six weeks, depending on individual hair growth rates and hormonal factors. Regular waxing can lengthen cycles and reduce density. Follow-up appointments every 4–6 weeks help maintain a consistently smooth midsection.

Yes—sensitive skin can be waxed with precautions. We use gentle waxes, patch tests, and calming products. Inform your technician of allergies, medications, or skin conditions. Post-care includes soothing creams and avoiding heat or exfoliation for 24-48 hours.

Avoid hot baths, heavy exercise, sun exposure, and tight clothing for 24-48 hours. Apply soothing aloe or antibacterial lotion, gently exfoliate after 48 hours to prevent ingrown hairs, and moisturize regularly. Contact us for persistent irritation.

Certain conditions like active skin infections, open wounds, recent surgery, severe varicose veins, or certain medications (e.g., isotretinoin) may contraindicate waxing. Disclose medications and medical history during booking so we can advise or offer alternative hair-removal options.
