What is Waxing?
Waxing is a popular hair removal method that involves applying warm wax to the skin and then quickly removing it, pulling out hair from the root. This technique leaves skin smooth and can last for several weeks, making it an attractive option for looking for longer-lasting results compared to shaving.
Does waxing hurt?
Waxing can be an uncomfortable for some people. Initially, you may feel a quick sting after the hair is pulled from the root. However, this sensation usually subsides quickly.
All waxing treatment areas are soothed with oils and lotions post treatment
Hair growth stages and timeframes...
The hair cycle consists of four main phases: anagen, catagen, telogen and finally Exogen. During the anagen phase, hair is actively growing and is the best time for waxing, as the hair is firmly rooted. The catagen phase is a transitional period where hair stops growing and detaches from the follicle. In the telogen phase, hair rests and eventually sheds, making it less effective for waxing. Finally the Exogen stage is when the hair is shed and precedes back to the anagen stage. Understanding and having regular waxing sessions can help you obtain the best results.
Frequency of needing a wax service can vary depending on individual hair growth and personal preference. Generally, it's recommended to get waxed every 4 to 6 weeks for optimal results. This allows the hair grow to the right length for effective removal while minimizing discomfort. Listen to your body, keep and eye on your hair growth and adjust the timing as needed to find what works best for you.

Aftercare Advice...
After your waxing appointment, it’s important to take care of your skin to ensure a smooth recovery. The waxed area will be cleaned
(All effort is made to avoid clothing/ underwear, but please don't wear your best items just incase of any wax residue transfer.)
Avoid heat, sunlight, saunas, swimming, intense workouts, self tanning for at least 24 hours to prevent irritation. Keep the area moisturized with a gentle lotion and also avoid any harsh products or exfoliants. If you experience any redness or discomfort, a cold compress and loose clothing can help soothe the skin.
