Results generally last three to six weeks depending on individual hair growth. Regular waxing can weaken follicles over time, producing finer regrowth. Avoid exfoliating and sun exposure immediately after treatment, and follow our aftercare tips to prolong smoothness and reduce irritation.

Most clients describe mild to moderate discomfort, briefly during strips. We use warm, high-quality wax and trained techniques to minimize pain. Exfoliating the area beforehand, taking ibuprofen if suitable, and relaxing during the service can greatly reduce sensitivity.

Trim only if hair is excessively long; aim for roughly quarter-inch length. Avoid heavy creams or oils on the day, exfoliate gently 24–48 hours beforehand, and skip tanning or aggressive skin treatments for at least a week to reduce sensitivity and ensure better wax adhesion.

Yes in many cases, but please disclose any skin conditions, medications, or recent treatments. We offer patch tests and choose gentler waxes for sensitive skin. Active sunburn, open wounds, or recent retinoid use may require postponing the service for your safety.

Plan for a 25–35 minute appointment including consultation, waxing, and aftercare. First-time clients may take a bit longer. Arrive with clean, dry skin to keep the service efficient and allow time for any questions or post-wax care instructions.

Avoid hot baths, saunas, swimming, and intense exercise for 24–48 hours. Keep skin clean and apply soothing moisturizer or aloe. Wait 48 hours before exfoliating, and protect treated skin from direct sun to prevent irritation and prolong smooth results.
