Common Q&A’s

Q: Does waxing hurt?
A: A lil' sting, but super quick. You’ll be fine, babe!

Q: How long should my hair be?
A: At least 1/4 inch — no baby stubble, please!

Q: Can I wax on my period?
A: Yes! Just wear a tampon or cup.

Q: How do I prep for my wax?
A: Exfoliate the day before, skip shaving, wear comfy clothes.

Q: What should I avoid after waxing?
A: Heat, sweat, tight clothes, and touching the area for 24 hrs.

Q: Can I work out after?
A: Nope — wait at least 24 hours to avoid irritation.

Q: How often should I come back?
A: Every 4–5 weeks for smoothest results.

Q: What if I’m nervous or embarrassed?
A: Totally normal — but trust us, there’s zero judgment here. You’re safe!

Q: What’s the difference between brow tint and lamination? A: Tinting colors the brow hairs (and sometimes lightly stains the skin) for more definition. Lamination lifts and sets the brows in place, making them look fuller and more even.
