Temporary redness or mild irritation is common after waxing but typically subsides within hours to a day. We use soothing post-wax care and gentle products to calm skin. Notify your esthetician about sensitivities so we can personalize aftercare.

Grow hair to about three to five millimeters so the wax adheres properly. Avoid exfoliating, chemical peels, or retinoids for two to three days before your appointment, and skip sun exposure. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin for best results.

Yes. Lip Waxing can be combined with eyebrow shaping, chin waxing, or other facial treatments in one appointment. Your esthetician will sequence services to reduce irritation and ensure a balanced, polished result while recommending spacing for sensitive skin.

Some discomfort is normal, but sessions are brief. Our estheticians use precise technique, temperature-controlled wax, and soothing pre- and post-wax care to minimize pain. Over-the-counter pain relievers can help if you are sensitive; ask staff for personalized comfort tips.

Do not wax if you have active cold sores, open wounds, sunburn, or severe rosacea. Also avoid waxing while using topical retinoids or certain acne medications. Always disclose medications, recent procedures, and skin conditions so your esthetician can advise suitability.
