Yes. Professional waxing removes both coarse and fine hairs by extracting follicles from the root. Results are more complete than shaving, though very light vellus hairs may be less visible. Multiple sessions improve thoroughness and hair texture over time.

Some stinging is normal, but trained technicians minimize pain with proper technique and calming products. Take ibuprofen beforehand if needed, avoid caffeine, and breathe steadily. Skin becomes less sensitive with regular waxing as hair thins and treatments become quicker.

Ensure hair is at least a quarter-inch long; exfoliate gently two days prior and moisturize lightly. Avoid sun exposure, tanning, and retinoids before your appointment. Arrive with clean, product-free skin to help the wax adhere and reduce complications.

Avoid hot baths, saunas, and heavy exercise for 24 hours. Apply a soothing, alcohol-free lotion and avoid exfoliation for 48 hours. Use sunscreen if exposed to sunlight and follow our staff’s product recommendations to prevent irritation and ingrown hairs.

Generally waxing is safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but skin sensitivity increases. Inform your technician about pregnancy or medications; they may adjust technique and products. If you have specific medical concerns, consult your healthcare provider before booking to ensure safety.
