how to prepare

  • we advise all clients to refrain from exfoliating or using any topical prescription products 1 week out from their appointment.

    to have a successful session, we recommend not wearing any clothing, accessories or hairstyles that may interfere with the service. for example, bangs, turtlenecks, large earrings, etc.

  • we advise all clients to exfoliate the skin the day before their wax. this diminishes the chance of ingrown hairs and makes for a smoother wax. if the hair is longer than a grain of rice, we recommend trimming it to that length. if the hair is shorter than a grain of rice, the esthetician will not be able to perform the service.
