Double dipping is when the technician dips the waxing stick back into the wax vat after using it on you or someone else – possibly allowing the spread of bacteria. I dip each stick into the wax only once and then throw it in the trash, so the wax being applied is always sterile. My […]
Whether you want a premarital wax or just a vacation-ready bikini line, I recommend you plan to have at least two waxes before the event. This will ensure you do not have any reactions to the wax before the big day. It also gets the first wax – which is the most uncomfortable – out […]

It certainly can!! Certain medications and products thin out the skin making it more likely for you to peel or burn during your waxing session. If you are unsure if your medication will affect your skin, please call me or the salon before you come in.

Don’t you dare shave down there!! The hair will be shorter when you come in for your next visit and the wax won’t grab as well. Also, shaving creates ingrown hairs, redness and irritation. If you have an urge to pick up the pink bic, make your appointments every three weeks instead of four or […]
No, but it will become more sparse and have a finer texture if you wax on a regular basis.
