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

Can I Shave Before My Waxing Service in Santa Monica?

Our waxing experts recommend that you let the hair grow to about ¼ inch long, or the length of a sprinkle. This allows our Comfort Wax® to really adhere to the hair. If it’s your first-time waxing, refrain from shaving for at least two weeks prior to your wax reservation.

What Do I Need to do to Get My Skin Wax Ready?

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.

It’s My Time of the Month. Can I Still Get a Wax?

Yes! Our wax specialists are happy to give you smooth, radiant skin when you’re on your cycle. Just keep in mind that your skin will be more sensitive, and you may experience a bit more discomfort than you have in the past.

Brazilian Wax: What to Expect During Your Visit

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 Much Time Will I Have Between Brazilian Waxing or Bikini Waxing Reservations?

While everyone’s hair growth cycle is different, the average time between bikini wax reservations is 3–4 weeks. You may need to schedule a wax service a little earlier or later. To keep that smooth glow for longer, talk with your wax specialist about the products in our EWC Treat® collection. Book your reservation for a bikini wax or Brazilian wax near you today!
