Does the hair grow back thicker after waxing?
No, contrary to common misconceptions, hair does not grow back thicker after waxing. In fact, regular waxing can slow down the cycle of hair growth, making the hair sparser and less visible.
What can I do to reduce discomfort during the procedure?
We recommend that you avoid caffeine and alcohol before the appointment as these can make your skin more sensitive. An over-the-counter pain reliever like Paracetamol taken an hour before treatment can also help manage any discomfort.
What happens during the waxing procedure?
The process begins with skin preparation to protect your skin and improve wax efficiency. The wax is applied in the direction of hair growth for maximum extraction and pain reduction. Post-wax, a soothing lotion is applied to calm the skin.
Can this treatment cause skin irritation or inflammation?
Some people may experience slight redness immediately after treatment. However, we apply an aloe-based lotion post-wax to prevent and soothe any inflammation.
How often should I get this waxing treatment?
Typically, we advise clients to schedule their waxing appointments every 4 to 6 weeks. Though, it may vary depending on your individual hair growth.
Can I shave between waxing appointments?
We generally recommend against shaving between waxing appointments. Shaving disrupts the hair growth cycle and could make your next waxing appointment less effective.
Should I exfoliate before or after the treatment?
It is beneficial to exfoliate the skin prior to your appointment to remove any dead skin cells, ensuring a more effective waxing process. Avoid exfoliation immediately after wax treatment, as your skin will be more sensitive.
