Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between bikini and Brazilian waxing?
Bikini waxing removes only hair visible outside swimsuit line. Brazilian removes all hair front to back including labia and perianal area. You can customize anywhere between these extremes—from minimal shaping to complete removal based on your preference.
How long does pubic hair waxing last?
Bikini line lasts 3-5 weeks, Brazilian lasts 4-6 weeks. With consistent waxing, hair becomes finer and sparser, and many clients can extend time between appointments by 1-2 weeks after several treatments.
Is pubic waxing safe?
Yes, when performed professionally with proper hygiene and technique. We use sterile tools, new gloves, disposable applicators, and never double-dip. The service is safe for this sensitive area when sanitation protocols are strictly followed.
Does pubic waxing hurt?
Pain varies: bikini line is moderate (5-6/10), full Brazilian is more intense (7-8/10) but brief. Hard wax is used to minimize discomfort. First session is most painful; subsequent treatments become 40-50% less uncomfortable as hair becomes finer.
When should I schedule my appointment?
Schedule during mid-menstrual cycle when pain tolerance is highest. Avoid the week before, during, or immediately after your period when sensitivity peaks. Hair should be 1/4 inch long (2-3 weeks after shaving).
Can I get waxed during my period?
Technically yes if wearing tampon or menstrual cup, but not recommended. Pain sensitivity increases significantly during menstruation. Best time is week after period ends when discomfort is minimized and healing is fastest.
How do I prevent ingrown hairs?
Begin gentle daily exfoliation 48 hours after waxing using soft washcloth, apply fragrance-free moisturizer or ingrown hair serum, wear breathable cotton underwear, avoid tight clothing, and never shave between appointments.
Is there anything I should avoid before waxing?
Do not shave for 2-3 weeks before (hair must be 1/4 inch), avoid caffeine day-of (increases sensitivity), do not apply lotions or oils to area day-of, skip sun exposure or tanning 24-48 hours before. Shower and cleanse area beforehand.
