Does My Hair Have to be a Certain Length Before My Waxing Service in San Rafael?

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?

At European Wax Center - San Rafael - Montecito Plaza, our waxing services are all about giving you touchable, smooth skin that leaves you feeling gorgeous. To ensure your utmost comfort during your wax service, we recommend avoiding tanning, drinking significant amounts of caffeine, and consuming alcohol prior to your reservation. These items can cause your pores to tighten, cause discomfort, and make your waxing session feel less than luxurious. Please let your wax specialist know if you’re on any medications to ensure that you are safe during your wax service.

Can I Wax During My Time of the Month?

Absolutely! You are more than welcome to come in for a wax service during your time of the month. Just remember, your skin will be more sensitive, and you may experience more discomfort than usual.

Brazilian Wax: What to Expect During Your Wax Service

First time getting a Brazilian wax? Don’t worry! We’re here to walk you through the entire process, so you know what to expect. First, our wax specialists cleanse the bikini area to ensure optimal wax adhesion. A gentle pre-wax oil is then applied to protect and soothe your skin. This creates a barrier between the wax and your skin. Next, our Comfort Wax®, is precisely applied to your skin. Unlike traditional waxing methods, our specialists remove the wax without the need for a cloth strip, in order to minimize discomfort. Finally, we pamper your skin by applying our after-wax products that leave your skin feeling refreshed and revitalized.

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

Our signature Comfort Wax®, a hard wax, is then applied to your skin and removed without the use of a cloth strip.
