Shaving before a waxing appointment defeats the purpose of getting the service in the first place. Allowing your hair to grow and not shaving for at least two weeks before your visit will ensure that we remove the majority of your hair.

For effective waxing results and ensuring that your hair is completely removed from its root, your hair needs to be at least a quarter of an inch long or around the size of a grain of rice.

Contrary to popular belief, waxing does not affect hair growth or thickness. It can, however, help to reduce hair volume.

Exfoliating is one of the few things you can do before your waxing appointment to get better results. It is good for your skin and helps remove dead skin cells before waxing, allowing hair to break through the surface. Additionally, moisturizing should be an essential part of your daily regimen, particularly in the days preceding your visit.

It’s a good idea to avoid alcohol, coffee, and exercise before your waxing session because these things boost blood circulation, making the treatment more painful and uncomfortable.

You can take a pain reliever 45 minutes before your appointment, but only on your doctor’s recommendation. Advil and Aleve are good options, but avoid Aspirin as it induces blood flow.
