There are many benefits to allowing us to assist you with hair removal. Smoother skin is simply one benefit and the results could last 3-4 weeks depending on how quickly your hair grows. At Esthetics by P Brown, we use Stephanie Layne’s wax. This wax has an oil base versus a polymer which means it does not contain plastic. Whether we use the hard wax or soft wax depends on the coarseness of the hair. If your hair is really coarse, we’ll use the hard wax, but if your hair is fine we tend to use a soft wax. We use the low temperature wax and it’s less painful.
Hard Wax Versus Soft Wax
What is Hard Wax?
Hard wax has a thick consistency. When it’s applied, it hardens on the skin and maintains a workable consistency that doesn’t require strips to be used, the wax works as the strip. It melts at a lower temperature, so it feels comfortable to the skin.
What is Soft Wax?
Soft wax doesn’t stick to the skin, but it does stick to the hair. With this wax, strips are used to remove the hair.
What Happens When I Schedule a Wax Appointment?
When you schedule any wax appointment with the exception of some face wax appointments, you’ll receive an email that provides instructions on how you’ll need to prepare for the appointment. Instructions may vary, for example, you may be asked to exfoliate 24-48 hours prior to the appointment. You also may be asked to refrain from using any harsh chemicals on the area for approximately 48 hours. For example, if your cleanser contains retinal, and you’re scheduling a wax appointment for your face, you would want to stop using the retinal on your face 24 – 48 hours prior to your appointment. Be sure to check our wax services under Brow and Wax Bar .
