FAQ

  • WHY WAX?

    Waxing is one of the best ways to temporarily remove unwanted hair. It is more effective than shaving because it removes hair from the roots, not just from the skin’s surface. Over time, hair in waxed areas regrows lighter and more sparse, or not at all.

    Even fine hair shadows the face, distorting and aging your features.

  • HOW LONG DOES MY HAIR NEED TO BE?

    Hair needs to be 1/4 inch long. If it is too short, the hair will be difficult to remove. It is always easier to remove longer hair than shorter. If you typically shave please allow 7-10 days between shaving and waxing.

  • HOW LONG WILL THE RESULTS LAST?

    Appointments are usually scheduled every 4 weeks. If this is your first waxing experience you can reasonably expect your results to lastbetween 3 and 6 weeks with minimal growth in the days and weeks following your appointment, depending on how quickly your particular hair grows. Hair regrowth patterns are cyclical andyou will notice an improvement in regard to the longevity of your results as you become regular with your waxing services.

  • DOES BODY WAXING CAUSE HAIR TO RE-GROW THICKER?

    No. This is a complete myth. Waxing, in fact, is know to actually stop hair growth all together in some cases. It is important to keep in mind though that waxing should be used as a temporary hair removal method as the slowing or stopping of hair growth takes many years of consistent waxing.

  • IS WAXING SAFE FOR THOSE WITH SENSITIVE SKIN?

    If done properly, waxing can be a great benefit to people with sensitive skin. It is much more gentle on the skin than many other methods of hair removal, IE. shaving and at home depilatories. It is impossible to predict who will have a reaction to the wax or any product used. If you have sensitive skin it is very important to follow the instructions in the pre-waxing guide as well as the post-waxing guide.
