FAQ
Just wash with your normal soap and water, limit lotions to only what your skin can readily absorb. Do not use scrubs or exfoliants the day of your wax.
The waxing industry definition varies, but for us, it’s everything from front to back! If we remove hair from the vulva or scrotum, it’s a Brazilian wax regardless of what you leave or don’t leave in the front—be it a landing strip, a triangle, or nothing at all. The Brazilian waxing process is usually less than 20 minutes for people with a vulva, a little longer for people with a penis and/or testicles.
Waxing can last up to six weeks, but most people find their perfect waxing schedule is every four weeks. The more you get waxed, the longer it will last.
We recommend absolutely NO SHAVING between waxes. Shaving traumatizes the hair follicle, creates redness and ingrown hairs. We offer a discount if you book your Brazilian maintenance wax within six weeks of initial and continued services. Your waxer will know all about the re-booking process.
For maintenance, we recommend anywhere from three to six weeks or when the hair is between 1/4 and 1/2 inch long.
We recommend that you do not tan at least 24 hours before or after your appointment. Also, don’t spray tan because the wax will take your tan right off! So if you’re planning to spritz on a bit of color before that big event, you’ll want wax then tan.
Depends on the waxing service:
- Facial waxing? Stay dressed! Maybe take that hoodie off for your own comfort, but it’s really up to you.
- Body waxing? You need to remove only enough clothing for the waxer to do their job. Your waxer can help you figure out what that is depending on what you are wearing the day of your appointment.
- Bikini waxing? You can keep your undies on if you like, but we are getting real here…those panties aren’t hiding much and it’s easier for the waxer if there is nothing in the way. If you are not comfortable with all that breeze, don’t worry… your waxer will always work within your boundaries.
- Brazilian waxing? Let’s be honest here. There is no modesty when it comes to getting a Brazilian wax. So chuck those panties aside and be your natural self.
Yes, but not as bad as you think! Clients constantly tell us it wasn’t as bad as they thought it would be.
Many clients find the following tips make the service easier: avoid caffeine prior to their visit, take ibuprofen 30-45 minutes before their service, and scheduling their waxing appointment just after menstruation.
