Smooth Perfection:
Waxing Services at Waterfall Spa

What areas of the body can be waxed?

• Waxing can be performed on various parts of the body, including the eyebrows, upper lip, chin, cheeks, underarms, arms, legs, bikini area, back, and chest.

How long does the hair need to be for waxing?

• For best results, hair should be at least 1/4 to 1/2 inch long (about the length of a grain of rice) before waxing. If the hair is too short, the wax may not effectively grip the hair, resulting in incomplete hair removal.

How often should I schedule waxing appointments?

• The frequency of waxing appointments depends on the individual's hair growth cycle and personal preference. Generally, waxing is recommended every 4-6 weeks to maintain smooth skin.

Is waxing painful?

• Waxing may cause some discomfort, particularly during the hair removal process. However, most clients find that the sensation diminishes with regular waxing, and the results outweigh any temporary discomfort.

How long do waxing results last?

• Waxing typically provides smooth skin for 3-6 weeks, depending on individual hair growth rates. Over time, with regular waxing, hair may grow back finer and lighter, resulting in longer-lasting results.

Can I wax if I have sensitive skin?

• Yes, waxing is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin. However, individuals with sensitive skin may experience temporary redness or irritation after waxing. It's essential to communicate any skin sensitivities or allergies to your esthetician before your appointment.

Are there any contraindications to waxing?

• Certain medical conditions or medications may contraindicate waxing, such as sunburn, recent chemical peels or laser treatments, use of certain medications (e.g., retinoids or blood-thinning medications), or skin conditions (e.g., eczema or psoriasis). It's important to consult with your esthetician or healthcare provider before waxing if you have any concerns.

How should I prepare for a waxing appointment?

• Before your waxing appointment, it's recommended to exfoliate the skin gently and avoid moisturizing on the day of your appointment. Wear loose-fitting clothing to your appointment to avoid irritation after waxing, and communicate any specific preferences or concerns with your esthetician.

Can I wax if I'm pregnant?

• Yes, waxing is generally safe during pregnancy. However, hormonal changes during pregnancy may make the skin more sensitive, so it's essential to communicate any pregnancy-related concerns with your esthetician before your appointment.

How should I care for my skin after waxing?

• After waxing, it's important to avoid sun exposure, hot showers, and harsh chemicals for 24-48 hours to prevent irritation or ingrown hairs. Moisturize the skin regularly to keep it hydrated and soothe any redness or irritation.
