Smooth Talk: From Nervous to Hairless—We’ve Got You

For the best results, I always recommend waiting at least 3 weeks after your last shave before coming in for your first Brazilian. If you can hold off for 4 weeks—even better! The longer the hair, the smoother and cleaner your wax will be. Trust me, your skin will thank you!  


Gently exfoliate the night before your appointment using a mild body scrub. This helps remove dead skin cells, prevents ingrown hairs, and allows the wax to grip the hair more effectively. On the day of, skip lotions or oils so the area is clean and ready to go! 


Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but the first time is usually the most intense—don’t worry, it gets easier! Just try to go in with the mindset that you'll feel a bit of mild discomfort for a short time, and the results will absolutely be worth it. Deep breathing, skipping caffeine that day, and trusting your esthetician’s technique  (which is also crucial!) all help make the experience smoother. 


Comfy is key! Opt for loose-fitting clothing and breathable fabrics. This helps avoid friction and keeps the area feeling calm and happy after your wax. 


It’s best to wait 24 hours before hitting the gym or doing any intense physical activity. Your skin is a bit sensitive after waxing, and sweating can irritate the freshly waxed area or even cause ingrown hairs. If you really can't wait to work out, just make sure to shower afterward and wear breathable, loose clothing to avoid any friction or buildup. 


No problem at all! When you’re ready to book, just let us know it’s your first Brazilian wax by calling or texting our number 858-232-9356. This way, we can make sure to schedule extra time, if needed, and take a moment to walk you through the process beforehand so you feel totally comfortable. We’re here to help make your first experience a great one! 


Your skin will stay smooth for about 1.5 to 2 weeks. After that, you may start to notice some regrowth. With regular waxing, the hair grows back finer and softer, and the results last longer each time. Everyone's hair growth is different, but that 1.5 to 2-week window is typical for most! 


Great question! To help prevent ingrown hairs after your wax, we recommend gently exfoliating the area 2-3 times a week. Also, try to avoid wearing anything too tight for a day or so after your wax—tight clothing can cause friction, which can lead to ingrowns. If you're concerned about ingrowns, let us know, and we will use a wax that lessens the chances of you developing them.
