Expert Tips To Help You Prepare For Your Wax
Best experience possible
Relax, You Got This
If you are a waxing newbie or a wax fanatic, you can relax, your goodies are in good hands. We want you to have the smoothest, most ouch-less experience possible and we love what we do. All bodies, all hair, all genders welcome.
Hair Length
To give you the smoothest results possible, your hair should be at least ¼ of an inch long. That’s usually at least two weeks since shaving or 4-6 weeks since waxing. If your hair is too short the wax may not adhere.
Exfoliate
For the best results, exfoliate your skin 1 day before your appointment to get rid of dead skin and prepare your hair follicles for removal.
Comfy Clothes are a Must
Loose clothing lets your skin breathe. Ditch your party clothes for your sweats!
Minimize the Ouch
Steer clear of stimulants such as alcohol or caffeine before your wax which can make your skin more sensitive. Everyone’s pain tolerance is different. If you’re worried, some clients choose to take a Tylenol or Advil 30 minutes before their appointment to take the edge off.
Schedule Strategically
Schedule your wax 3-4 days before a big event to give your skin time to chill. If you’re a waxing newbie and want to go bare for a special event (like your wedding) we recommend waxing 2-3 times before your big day.
Safety first
Skin Sensitive Medications
It's always best to ask your doctor if you have any questions. Skip the wax if you are on an oral acne medication such as Accutane or have used it in the past 6 months. If you use prescribed creams such as Differin, Retin-A or any Retinoids, the surrounding area cannot be waxed within 7 days of product application. Waxing on these medications can cause your skin to lift.
Tanning / Sunburn
We recommend you lay off tanning the area you want waxed for 24-48 before your appointment as we cannot perform services on sunburnt or irritated skin.
Keep Us Posted
We want to accommodate your needs so let us know if this is your first-time waxing. If you’re pregnant, if it’s that time of the month, or if you’ve ever had any negative reactions to waxing, we want the scoop.
Strip wax / Hard wax
What's The Difference?
Strip Wax
This is our standard wax but it is anything but ordinary. Our preferred zinc-oxide strip wax is made in Italy, has a low melting point, and protects against irritation, inflammation, and is specifically formulated for blemish prone skin.
Hard Wax
Our go-to choice for sensitive skin or anyone who is prone to bumps or ingrown hairs. We use hard wax for all face waxing as it is gentle on the skin and adheres to only the hair and offer it as an add-on to our intimate waxing services like the bikini, french, or brazilian.
Waxing Aftercare
Take Care Down There
For The First 24 Hours
After a wax, your hair follicles are open for the first 24 hours. It’s important to follow the rules below to prevent any bacteria from getting in your hair follicles, this will ensure the smoothest results possible. It is normal to have a little redness or tenderness after waxing.
- No touching
- No exercise/sweating
- No tanning
- No swimming, steam rooms or saunas
- No sexual contact
Until Your Next Wax
Shaving
Put down the razor. It may be tempting, but don’t do it. Shaving between waxes can leave you with undesirable results.
Take Care Down There
To keep your skin silky smooth, we recommend a daily regime of exfoliating and moisturizing.
Fend Off Ingrowns
For those prone to ingrown hairs, we recommend exfoliating with our sisal dry bikini brush and using one of our ingrown hair treatments daily.
- Cutebox Exotic Bikini Balm
- Finipil
- PFB Vanish
Your Next Booking
As a consistent waxer, your hair will become noticeably softer, finer, and over time sparser. Book your next wax 5-6 weeks after your appointment for smoothest results. You’re welcome to come in sooner, but due to hair cycles you may be left with unwanted stubble.
