Wax Your Way To A Smooth Summer

Let’s be honest – for women, when it comes to removing unwanted hair from your face, the best option is probably waxing. Shaving is not even an option, and unless you’re willing to invest a lot of time and money into laser treatments, they’re probably not great choices either. Fortunately, pro waxing services are quick and easy, and very cost effective.

If you’re already a veteran waxer, you know how this all works. For the newbies out there, waxing is a great way to not only remove unwanted hair already showing on your face but also to dramatically slow down the regrowth of that hair after it’s been removed. Waxing removes the entire hair, follicle and all, which means that it will take a long time to regrow. And with continued waxing, over time that regrowth will slow down even more and in some cases stop altogether. That’s why it’s important to work with your waxing technician to make a waxing plan and stick with it.

The best way to get in sync for facial waxing is to stop any other removal strategies you’ve been using for at least a few weeks prior to your appointment. Your hair needs to be at least one-quarter inch long for the wax to properly adhere to it. On the morning of your waxing appointment, exfoliate the areas that will be waxed – eyebrows, upper lip, chin, wherever – but don’t apply your usual moisturizer. This can make it difficult for the wax to properly adhere to the unwanted hair. But don’t worry; your technician will apply a hydrating lotion as soon as the procedure is complete. If it’s your first wax or you have a low tolerance for discomfort, pop an over-the-counter pain reliever about an hour before your appointment. Then just sit back and relax.
