What's the best way to prepare for a waxing?

Hair should have 3-4 weeks of outgrowth. Longer is acceptable, but nothing shorter is recommended. For optimal results, make sure your skin is clean and dry. Avoid using lotions, oils, or creams on the day of your appointment but exfoliate the area a day or two before—the sooner you start this process the better as it will help release dead skin and loosen ingrown hair. Discontinue retinol-based products for two weeks before wax treatment. Accutane users typically pause medication approximately one month before waxing but please consult with your dermatologist prior.

How long does a facial service last?

Our facials last 50 minutes and address your unique skincare needs–providing a relaxing and restorative experience. When warranted, facials will include a deep cleanse to nourish the skin along with steam treatments, extractions, and nutrient-rich mask. All facials include a light neck and shoulder massage to relieve stress.

What is a Vajacial?

You read that right. It's a facial for your lady parts! This treatment is highly recommended for both new and frequent waxers to help prevent ingrown hairs and eliminate waxing bumps. When necessary, steam will be used to further extract ingrown hairs—allowing for enhanced product absorption. In addition, this service will target dark spots, hyperpigmentation, decrease redness, and help clear your skin of any impurities.

How long does waxing last?

For best results, we recommend waxing every 4-6 weeks to maintain smooth, hair-free skin. Waxing damages the hair follicle causing your hair to grow back thinner and softer than before. Hair will also grow back slower than shaving—no more prickles! Depending on your hair growth and the area being waxed, typical results will last for 3-6 weeks.

Can I wax if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, waxing is suitable for most skin types including sensitive skin. Our gentle waxing techniques and hypoallergenic hard wax products are designed to minimize irritation. If you have concerns about sensitivity, please let our staff know and they can provide additional guidance.

How long does my hair need to be to get waxed?

Hair should have 3-4 weeks of outgrowth or about size of a grain of rice, which is approximately a quarter inch in length. Longer is acceptable, but nothing shorter is recommended. If your hair is not long enough, the service will need to be rescheduled because the wax will not be able to remove the follicle from the root. This will cause the hair to break and grow back faster. When in doubt, please reach out prior to your appointment.

What products do you use for waxing?

We exclusively use hypoallergenic hard wax designed to minimize discomfort and irritation. Hard wax is thicker than soft wax and works by adhering only to hair, not your skin. Once it cures, you can remove it with your hands so there's no need for waxing strips. This makes the process a lot less painful and more effective.
