Waxing

Imagine having beautiful, smooth, totally hair-free skin. No more cuts and nicks, and with regular waxing appointments, your hair will grow back thinner and lighter. Some consider waxing the best way to remove leg hair, and you’ll soon see why. Wax is applied at just the right temperature for both your comfort and maximum effectiveness.

Benefits of Waxing

● Results typically last longer than shaving – up to 3 weeks.

● Hair grows back finer and lighter in color without sharp,
unsightly stubble.

● No daily maintenance routine to worry about.

● Great before a trip or vacation. No need to pack a razor or worry
about having to shave.

● More precise shaping/targeted hair removal in any area.

● When done properly, there is less risk of injury and infection.

● Leaves your skin smooth and silky.

● No razor bumps.

● No prickly stubble!

Disadvantages of Shaving

●
It’s easy to nick or cut yourself, causing painful wounds that can
become infected if not treated promptly and regularly.

●
Razors may become contaminated with bacteria and viruses.

●
You must shave regularly (sometimes daily) depending on your
lifestyle, the season, and how coarse your hair is when it regrows.

●
Hair usually grows back quickly and appears darker and thicker due
to the blunt cut of the hair.

●
You can get unsightly razor bumps/burns, which is an infection of
the hair follicle. This infection can become worse and spread if not treated
adequately.

Tips for Before & After Getting Waxed

● Hair growth should be at least 1/4″.

● Exfoliate the bikini area the day before your appointment with a
body scrub and moisturize thoroughly.

● Take a mild painkiller 30 minutes before your appointment
(preferably with caffeine).

● Apply an antibiotic cream with pain relief after the waxing, as
necessary.

● Stay out of the sun for 24 hours before and after any waxing
service.

● Avoid exercise 24 hours after your waxing service.

● Discontinue retinol use 3 months before any waxing.
