Eyebrow Hair Removal

Waxing Services

Waxing is a hair removal service that uses a warm, resin-like substance to remove hair by the root. It's a semi-permanent hair removal method that can provide long-lasting results. Waxing can be a good alternative to shaving because it can:

  • Prevent cuts, nicks, razor burn, and skin discoloration

  • Reduce the risk of ingrown hairs

  • Make hair grow back slower and finer

  • Provide smoother results

Pre and Post Care Instructions for Waxing

​Pre-Care Instructions:

  • Exfoliate: Gently exfoliate the area a day or two before your appointment to remove dead skin cells and help prevent ingrown hairs.

  • Hair Length: Ensure your hair is at least 1/4 inch long (about the length of a grain of rice) for effective waxing. Or about three weeks of hair growth

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and tanning beds for at least 48 hours before waxing to minimize skin sensitivity.

  • No Lotions or Oils: On the day of your appointment, avoid applying lotions, oils, or creams to the area being waxed, as they can interfere with wax adhesion.

  • Consult Your Practitioner: If you’re taking any medications (like retinoids or blood thinners) or have any skin conditions, inform your waxing professional beforehand.

  • Must be off isotretinoin for at least 6 months prior to service

  • Pain Management: If you’re concerned about discomfort, consider taking an over-the-counter pain reliever about 30 minutes before your appointment.

  • Avoid getting waxed while you are menstruating or near menstruation date as that can increase your pain level​

​

Post-Care Instructions:

  • Avoid Touching: Refrain from touching the waxed area to prevent irritation and bacteria which could cause infections.

  • Keep it Clean: Gently cleanse the area with a mild soap and water to remove any residual wax or irritation.

  • Moisturize: Apply a soothing, fragrance-free moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and reduce irritation.

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight and tanning beds for at least 48 hours to minimize the risk of irritation and pigmentation.

  • No Sweating: Avoid vigorous exercise, saunas, or hot baths for 24 hours to prevent excess sweating and irritation.

  • Skip Exfoliation: Avoid exfoliating the area for at least 3 days to allow the skin to heal.

  • Watch for Reactions: Monitor the area for any unusual reactions, such as redness or bumps. If irritation persists, consult a professional.
