  • How long should my hair be before waxing?
    Hair should ideally be about a quarter of an inch long for effective waxing, roughly the length of a grain of rice.
  • Is it ok to wax during my menstrual cycle?
    While it's safe to wax during your menstrual cycle, some people may experience increased sensitivity, so it's best to communicate this to your waxing professional.
  • How often should I schedule my waxing appointments?
    Plan your waxing appointments every 4 to 6 weeks for best results, as this aligns with the hair growth cycle and allows for smoother, longer-lasting results.
  • What should I do to prepare for my waxing appointment?
    Before your waxing appointment, make sure your skin is clean and free from lotions or oils, and gently exfoliate to help prevent ingrown hairs.
  • Does waxing hurt?
    Waxing may cause some discomfort, but it's generally tolerable and becomes easier with regular sessions.
  • Is it safe to wax during pregnancy?
    Due to increased skin sensitivity during pregnancy, consult your healthcare provider before waxing.
  • What is a contraindication for waxing?
    Retinoids: Such as Retin-A, Renova, and Differin can thin the skin, making it more prone to lifting and irritation during waxing. It's advisable to stop using retinoids at least 7-10 days before a waxing appointment. Accutane (Isotretinoin): Oral retinoids like Accutane can increase skin sensitivity and the risk of skin damage during waxing. Ideally, wait for at least 6 months after discontinuation of Accutane before waxing. Acne Medications: Discontinue the use of acne medications like Accutane for face and body waxing or Adapalene and Retin-A for face waxing at least three months before waxing to prevent skin sensitivity
  • Can I wax if I have sensitive skin?
    Yes, you can wax with sensitive skin, but it's crucial to communicate your concerns with your waxing professional to ensure they use suitable products.
  • How many sessions do I need to see results from a facial peel?
    Results from facial peels can vary, but you may notice improvements in skin texture and tone after just one session. For optimal results, a series of peels may be recommended.
  • Are there any side effects of facial peels?
    Side effects of facial peels can include redness, peeling, and temporary sensitivity. These effects are typically mild and subside as your skin heals.
  • How should I care for my skin post-facial peel?
    After a facial peel, follow your skincare professional's advice, which may include using gentle products, avoiding sun exposure, and staying hydrated.

    The frequency of facial peels depends on the type of peel used and your skin's reaction. Your skincare professional can recommend the best schedule for optimal results while ensuring your skin's health and safety.
  • Do facial peels hurt?
    You may experience a slight tingling or stinging sensation during a facial peel, but discomfort levels are generally manageable and temporary.
  • What should I expect during a facial?
    During a facial, you can expect cleansing, exfoliation, extraction (if needed), a mask, and moisturization. After a facial, maintain your skin by being gentle, staying hydrated, and protecting it from the sun. Avoid harsh products and touching your face to keep that post-facial glow.
  • How do I maintain my skin after a facial?
    Keep your skin happy post-facial by avoiding harsh products, skipping exfoliation for a few days, and staying hydrated. Protect your skin from the sun, and resist the urge to touch or pick at it – let it bask in the glow of the facial for best results.
  • What are the benefits of getting a facial?
    Facials can help even out your skin tone, making it look more radiant. They also provide a calming experience that can reduce stress levels. Additionally, facials can hydrate your skin, leaving it looking plump and healthy, as well as boosting blood circulation for that natural glow. Moreover, most facials include special treatments for the delicate under-eye area, reducing puffiness and dark circles.
  • Do facials help with acne?
    Absolutely! Facials can help with acne by deep-cleaning pores, reducing inflammation, and removing excess oil. Some facials also use specialized products to target acne, promoting clearer, healthier skin.
  • Can facial peels help with acne scars?
    Certain types of facial peels, like chemical peels, can help reduce the appearance of acne scars by promoting skin regeneration and evening out skin tone.
  • How often should I get a facial?
    You should aim to get a facial every 4-6 weeks to keep your skin in top shape. Consistency is key for long-term benefits, but always listen to your skin – oily or acne-prone skin may benefit from more frequent facials, while drier skin may need them less often.
  • Can I wear makeup after a facial?
    After a facial, it's best to skip makeup for a few hours to let your skin breathe and absorb the benefits of the facial. If you must wear makeup, opt for lightweight, non-comedogenic formulas to avoid clogging your pores.
