Before & after
Prep, aftercare & policies
A little prep makes your wax faster and more comfortable. Here's everything to know before you come in.
Before your visit
How to prepare
- Let hair grow to at least ¼ inch (about two weeks of regrowth).
- Gently exfoliate the area a day before — not the day of.
- Skip lotions, oils, and deodorant on the area before your visit.
- Avoid heavy caffeine or alcohol right before; both heighten sensitivity.
- Wear comfortable, loose clothing for the trip home.
After your visit
Aftercare
- Keep the area clean and avoid heat (hot tubs, saunas, sun) for 24–48 hrs.
- No intense workouts or friction for a day to prevent irritation.
- Exfoliate lightly after 48 hrs and keep skin moisturized to avoid ingrowns.
- Rebook on a 3–4 week cycle to keep regrowth soft and waxing easy.
Studio policies
Intake form first
Please complete your intake form at least 24 hours before your appointment so we can keep your visit safe and smooth.
Hair length
Hair needs to be about ¼ inch long. Too short and the wax can't grip; we may need to reschedule.
Deposits & cancellations
Some services require a small deposit that applies to your total. Please give at least 24 hours' notice to change or cancel — late cancellations and no-shows forfeit the deposit.
