GOOD TO KNOW

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your appointment, from preparing for your wax to caring for your skin afterward.

Before Your Appointment

How long should my hair be?

For the best results, allow your hair to grow to at least ¼ inch long (about 2–3 weeks of growth) so the wax can properly grip the hair. Avoid shaving for at least 2 weeks beforehand, or ideally 3–4 weeks if possible

Should I exfoliate before my appointment?

Yes! Gently exfoliate 1–2 days before your appointment, but skip exfoliation the day of your wax. On the day of your appointment, arrive with clean skin and avoid applying lotions, oils, or other products to the area. Wear loose, comfortable clothing to minimize friction afterward.

What should I avoid beforehand?

On the day of your appointment, arrive with clean skin and avoid applying lotions, oils, or other products to the area. Wear loose, comfortable clothing to minimize friction afterward. If possible, limit caffeine and alcohol before your appointment, as they may increase sensitivity for some clients.

During Your Appointment

What should I expect?

We’ll start with a quick consultation, and I’ll walk you through the process. I’ll check in with you throughout your service to help keep you comfortable!

Will a Brazilian wax hurt?

Everyone is different! Some discomfort is normal, especially for your first wax, but consistency can help make future appointments more manageable. I recommend taking Tylenol about 30 min before your appointment to help ease discomfort.

What if I feel nervous or uncomfortable

No worries at all. You can ask questions, request a break, or let me know what you need at any time. This is a judgment-free space!

After Your Appointment

What should I avoid afterwards?

For the first 24–48 hours, avoid hot baths, saunas, swimming, intense workouts, and excessive sweating. Loose, comfy clothing is your best friend!

When should I exfoliate again?

Wait at least 48 hours, then gently exfoliate 2–3 times a week to help prevent ingrown hairs. Skip exfoliation if your skin is still irritated.

How often should I book my next Brazilian

Every 4–6 weeks is ideal for maintaining your results. Everyone’s hair growth is different, so we can find a schedule that works best for you!
