What to Expect at Your Waxing Appointment
First time? No worries. Waxing is straightforward, and we'll guide you through every step. Here's what to know before and during your visit.
Before You Arrive
Two things matter most before you come in:
- Hair length. Wait until hair is roughly a quarter-inch long, about the length of a grain of rice, before waxing. Shorter hair won't grip the wax cleanly, which leads to patchy results and unnecessary irritation. If you've been shaving, allow at least two to three weeks of growth.
- Skin prep. Come with clean, dry skin and skip heavy lotions or oils on the day of your appointment. Avoid sun exposure or tanning beds for 24 hours beforehand, and let your technician know if you're using any retinol or exfoliating skincare products, as these can make skin more sensitive.
During Your Visit
When you arrive at Nails Time, your technician will walk you through the treatment before starting, no surprises. Here's what the visit looks like:
- Your technician cleanses the area to remove any residue.
- Warm wax is applied in the direction of hair growth and removed swiftly against it.
- Any stray hairs are tidied with precision tweezers.
- A soothing post-wax lotion is applied to calm the skin.
The whole process is efficient and thorough. Most facial waxing takes just 10–15 minutes, and even a full leg wax is done before you know it. You're in good hands.
Waxing Aftercare: Keep Your Skin Smooth Longer
What you do in the 24–48 hours after your wax matters as much as the treatment itself. Follow these steps and your results will last longer with less irritation.
The first 24–48 hours:
- Avoid heat. Skip hot showers, saunas, steam rooms, and sunbeds. Heat opens pores and increases the risk of irritation or breakouts.
- Skip tight clothing. For body waxing areas like legs or bikini, wear loose, breathable fabrics to reduce friction on freshly waxed skin.
- Moisturise gently. Use a fragrance-free moisturiser to keep skin hydrated. Avoid anything with heavy fragrance or active acids.
- No gym sessions. Sweat can irritate freshly waxed skin, give yourself a day off.
Longer-term care:
- Exfoliate regularly. Starting about 48 hours after your wax, exfoliating two to three times a week helps prevent ingrown hairs by removing dead skin cells that can trap new hair growth beneath the surface.
- Moisturise daily. Consistent hydration keeps skin soft between appointments.
- Book your next visit. Regular waxing over time can lead to finer, sparser regrowth, making each appointment easier than the last.
