Curious about waxing but have questions? You’re not alone! We’ve gathered some of the most commonly asked questions to help you feel confident and informed about your experience. Let’s debunk the myths and make waxing as smooth as your skin!
Am I in the Hands of an Expert?
Absolutely! Elizabeth is a licensed cosmetologist with extensive training from a top wax chain. With three years of experience under her belt, you’re in skilled hands!
How Long Will My Wax Last?
Your wax results typically last 2-4 weeks or longer! This depends on your hair regrowth rate, previous hair removal methods, and your waxing journey. With the right aftercare and products, you can extend those divine results even further.
Hair Removal Other Than Waxing?
Why can’t I use other hair removal methods while waxing?
Mixing hair removal methods can disrupt your hair growth cycles, leading to more discomfort in the future. Sticking to waxing helps keep your progress on track and achieve smoother results over time.
What If I Take Retinol?
Can I get waxed if I take retinol, steroids, or blood thinners?
It’s best to consult your doctor if you’re on any of these medications and considering waxing. We recommend pausing any of these medications for 6 months to a year before waxing. Please keep in mind, proceeding with these medications can tear skin where wax is applied.
Why Wait 4 Weeks for Hair Regrowth?
Hair grows in three cycles, and waiting four weeks allows your hair cycle growth to sync as closely as possible. Expect 3-5 wax sessions to achieve longer-lasting results!
Why Do I Have to Exfoliate?
Exfoliation removes dead skin cells, sweat, and bacteria, leading to a smoother waxing experience. It helps brighten your skin and balances oil production; it also reduces body odor!
Can I Wax If I’m Pregnant?
Yes, mama! Waxing is generally safe during pregnancy, but always check with your doctor first. It’s crucial to stay hydrated and moisturized. Remember, hormonal changes can cause increased sensitivity.
