Question 1

Do I need to do anything before I come in for my wax?

Accepted Answer

No matter what type of wax you’re getting, please ensure that the area that will be waxed is clean (hygiene is obviously very important!). We also suggest taking a bath the night before to soften the skin.

Avoid shaving for at least 3-4 weeks before your appointment to make sure there’s enough hair to work with (we need a 1/4-1/2 inch of hair)

Medications: You’re welcome to take over-the-counter pain medication like Advil if you’re particularly sensitive to wax pain. However, you cannot get a wax if you’re using any retinol products on the area that is going to be waxed, strong acne medications like Accutane, or any blood-thinning medications.

Question 2

What should I expect during the wax session?

Accepted Answer

From the beginning, we will do everything we can to make sure you’re comfortable. We cleanse and prep the area, apply the wax to the hair, and then place a strip over the wax to then quickly remove the hair.

Question 3

Will it hurt?

Accepted Answer

We do everything we can to make the experience as pain-free as possible. There will likely be some pain and discomfort, especially if it’s your first time. While the experience is different for everyone, most people agree that the first wax hurts the most and the pain gets less and less each time. The reason it hurts less is because with waxing, the hair grows back softer and finer, making it less painful to remove.

If you’re worried about pain, we recommend taking over-the-counter meds like Advil before your appointment. If you’re getting the Brazilian Wax, we highly recommend getting a soothing vajacial for afterwards. This treatment cleanses and exfoliates your skin to minimize pain and inflammation.

Question 4

What do I do after the wax session?

Accepted Answer

We recommend that you exfoliate your skin every 2-3 days and moisturizing your skin every day.

First 24 hours: No pools, working out, or sex

Question 5

When can I not get a wax?

Accepted Answer

• If you’re using any retinol products on the area that is going to be waxed
 • If you’re taking Accutane, or other strong acne medications
 • No blood-thinning medications
 • Any serious skin conditions, recent surgeries, or recently in a tanning bed. Sunburn, laser burns, or breakouts in the area that will be waxed.
 • If you have type 1 diabetes, please let us know as we may need permission from your doctor.

Question 6

Can I use numbing cream to minimize the pain from the wax?

Accepted Answer

We kindly ask you to avoid using any numbing creams or sprays. It could interfere with the application of the wax or cause an allergic reaction.

If you’re worried about pain, we recommend taking some over-the-counter meds like Advil.

Please also remember that we always do everything we can to make the experience as painless and comfortable as possible. The pain also gets less and less after each wax.
