Don’t be shy, you can ask us anything! Here are some common questions we’ve gotten about the wax experience.

How Long Does My Hair Have to be Before Scheduling a Waxing Service in Long Beach?

There isn’t an exact length that your hair has to be in order to wax; however, our experts recommend that you let your hair grow to at least ¼ inch long (the size of a sprinkle) before your wax reservation. For first time guests, we recommend you stop shaving at least two weeks prior to your visit. The extra length allows our Comfort Wax® to grip around the hair more easily.

I’m Nervous About My First Wax. How Do I Prepare?

To get your skin wax ready, we advise that you refrain from tanning, drinking significant amounts of caffeine, or consuming alcohol prior to your wax service. They can cause your pores to tighten and make your experience less than luxurious. We recommend that you refrain from these activities in order to have the most comfortable experience possible. Some prescriptions can also affect your comfort during waxing, so be sure to let your wax specialist know if you’re on any medications.

Can I Get Waxed If I’m Having My Period?

We can absolutely provide a waxing service for you when Aunt Flo’s in town! Please keep in mind that your skin will be more sensitive, so you may experience more discomfort than you have in the past.

Brazilian Wax: What to Expect During Your Wax Service

If it's your first time getting a Brazilian or bikini wax, there's no need to feel nervous. We want you to feel at ease and informed about what to expect. During your reservation, our experienced wax specialists will guide you through the process step by step. First, they will cleanse the area to ensure proper wax adhesion. To protect and soothe your skin, a pre-wax oil is then applied. Next, our Comfort Wax®, a gentle and effective hard wax, is applied to the skin and removed without the need for a cloth strip. Finally, our wax specialists use our specially formulated after-wax products, such as body lotions and serums, to nourish and revitalize your skin.

How Long Should I Wait Before My Next Bikini Wax or Brazilian Wax?

Most enjoy 3–4 weeks between bikini wax reservations; however, everyone’s hair growth cycle is a little different. The time in between your wax service may be more or less than someone else’s. If you want to keep your skin feeling smoother for longer, ask your wax specialist about using the products in our EWC Treat® collection.
