Let one of our licensed Wax Specialists help you remove, shape or groom your facial hair so that it suits that amazing face of yours. Benefits Types Wax Vs. The Rest 01 Reasons You'll Love Facial Waxing Because smooth is better When the hair is removed at the root instead of cut from the surface, it grows back in smoothly, meaning you'll be stubble-free. Smoother skin also makes for a more flawless makeup application. Because it won't break the bank It's affordable! Since the face is such a small surface area, less wax is needed, so it's less expensive than waxing larger parts of the body. Because you’ll grow less hair Think of it as training your hair. The more you wax, the less it grows over time. How great is that? Long lasting results You'll get about 2-3 weeks' worth of results from a facial wax—a lot longer than other removal methods. 02 Types Chin Ear Lip Sideburns & Hairline Cheek Neck Nose Eyebrows 03 What to Expect A reservation with one of our Wax Specialists will help you determine exactly where you should remove any pesky little hairs from your face. If it’s your first facial waxing, it's important to know what to expect prior to your reservation. Hair is totally normal Don’t be embarrassed. Everyone has unwanted hair or peach fuzz on their face, but if you don't like it, we can help! Our goal is for you to walk out feeling confident in your own skin. A slight ouch Although a little discomfort is completely normal during your first time facial waxing, it'll hurt less and less each time you visit. A little redness Just like any area that you wax, the surrounding skin may be a little red after your service. If you've got a big event, plan your wax about three days before (just to be safe!) Some sensitivity Because the skin on your face can be more delicate than other areas, you may notice some slight sensitivity after your service. If you feel extremely sensitive after a face wax, consult one of our Wax Specialists. 04 Facial Hair Waxing vs. The Rest When it comes to removing unwanted hair, you've got a lot of options. See how waxing compares to other hair removal techniques so that you can make an informed decision that works the best for you! Waxing vs. .... Threading Threading uses a cotton thread to remove short rows of hair from your face. Since each hair is removed individually, it can be a more painful and uncomfortable experience than face waxing. It can also be difficult on sensitive skin, particularly if you are an acne sufferer. Our trained Wax Specialists use our exclusive Comfort Wax® which can be used on even the most sensitive skin types. Tweezing Like threading, tweezing is a slower and more painful experience than waxing. Results don't last as long and it's easy to miss or break smaller hairs—pinching yourself in the process. And some women opt to use an epilator to tweeze hair from the roots more quickly, but this method is well-known for being painful. For touch-ups, manual tweezers are the best way to take care of any stray hairs and can be used in between facial waxing services to keep your face silky and smooth. Depilatory Creams Depilatory creams use chemicals to weaken the hair follicles, allowing you to wipe the hair away from your skin. These creams can be used at home but the harsh chemicals can irritate sensitive skin and many of them smell awful! Facial skin is especially delicate, so depilatories may not be a good option. With our Exclusive Comfort Wax® and trained Wax Specialists, we can wax even the most sensitive skin types. 05 Facial Wax Aftercare You'll love how smooth and flawless your new, fuzz-free face will feel when you leave one of our centers. We want you to continue to love the results for every day in between reservations, so here are some tips on how to maintain your wax results. To Keep in Mind: Avoid harsh sunlight, sunbathing and tanning beds If you must go in the sun, wear sunscreen Avoid topical face treatments Avoid swimming in chlorinated water Avoid profuse sweating Avoid touching the area How long will your face or brow wax last? Typically, your wax will last 2-3 weeks before you begin to see any regrowth, but as you wax your face more regularly, the density and amount of hair will decrease. Additional Exfoliation Benefits Exfoliating primes the skin for waxing by making it easier for hairs to slide out from their roots, which can create longer lasting results. Exfoliating helps the skin on your face better absorb your moisturizer and serums, which means they'll work more effectively. Regular exfoliation reduces your chance of ingrown hairs—great for anyone prone to ingrown hairs on their chin and neck. 06 Men's Waxing Service We offer a number of different facial waxing services that men can choose to achieve that perfectly styled look.
