Frequently Asked Questions

How long do results last?
Most guests stay smooth for two to four weeks, depending on hair growth. Regular waxing can slow regrowth and reduce density over time.
Does half arm waxing hurt?
You may feel brief discomfort as the wax is removed. We use skilled technique and soothing products to minimise sensitivity.
What should I do before my appointment?
Let hair grow to at least 3 to 5 mm. Arrive with clean, dry skin and avoid heavy moisturiser or tanning products on the day.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, we select wax for your skin type and prepare the area gently. Tell us about any sensitivities so we can adjust products and technique.
Can I wax over sunburn or irritation?
No, we cannot wax over sunburn, broken skin or active rashes. Please wait until the area has fully healed for best results.
