Your First Waxing Appointment: A Complete Prep Guide


Nervous about your first waxing appointment? Don't be! Our licensed estheticians have put together this comprehensive guide to help you prepare.


Before Your Appointment


1. Grow It Out

For best results, hair should be about 1/4 inch long (roughly 2-3 weeks of growth after shaving).


2. Exfoliate Gently

24 hours before your appointment, gently exfoliate the area to remove dead skin cells and prevent ingrown hairs.


3. Skip the Caffeine

Caffeine can make skin more sensitive, so avoid it a few hours before your appointment.


4. Hydrate

Well-hydrated skin responds better to waxing, so drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your appointment.
