Most clients enjoy smooth, hair-free results for three to six weeks depending on hair growth cycles. Regular appointments can extend time between sessions; avoid exfoliating or waxing sooner than two weeks to allow hair to reach ideal length for removal.

You may feel brief discomfort as hair is removed, but skilled technicians use quick technique and calming pre- and post-wax care to minimize pain. We apply soothing serums and advise cold compresses and avoiding heat treatments for 24 hours to reduce irritation.

Ensure hair is about a quarter inch long; avoid exfoliating, bleaching, or retinoid products for 48–72 hours prior. Arrive with clean, makeup-free brows and lip area. Mention sensitive skin so we can tailor products and technique for comfort.

Yes—when performed with appropriate products and care. We conduct consultations, perform patch tests if needed, and use soothing, antiseptic aftercare to reduce breakouts. If you have active outbreaks or recent facial peels, we may recommend postponing until skin has healed.

Plan for a 20–30 minute appointment to allow consultation, careful waxing, and soothing aftercare. First-time clients may need slightly more time. Arrive a few minutes early to complete intake forms and discuss any concerns with your technician.
