Most clients report mild to moderate discomfort, brief and manageable. We use numbing techniques when necessary, and experienced estheticians apply quick, efficient strips to reduce pain and irritation for a comfortable session.

Results typically last two to six weeks depending on individual hair cycle, skin type, and aftercare. Regular waxing can extend intervals between treatments by weakening follicles over time.

You don't need to shave; hair should be about 3–6 mm long. Arrive with clean, dry skin, free of lotions, oils, or heavy fragrances to ensure wax adheres and gives optimal results.

Avoid shaving between waxing sessions; shaving cuts hair at the surface and can speed regrowth. Instead, maintain scheduled wax appointments to preserve longer, smoother results and reduce irritation.

Minor redness, bumps or sensitivity are common immediately after waxing and usually subside within 24–48 hours. Use calming gels or cool compresses; contact us if severe swelling or persistent irritation occurs.

Avoid hot baths, sun exposure, heavy sweating and harsh products for 24–48 hours. Keep skin hydrated, exfoliate gently after 48 hours, and follow our recommended products to extend smoothness. If you have sensitive skin, we can recommend specialized soothing balms.
