Why Try Waxing in Zachary?
Less Skin Irritation
Other forms of hair removal, like shaving or depilatory can irritate sensitive skin, so even when you’re hair-free, you might have unsightly bumps. Waxing is much less irritating on your skin.
Longer-Lasting Results
Since waxing removes hair at the root instead of just the outer surface of the skin, the results are much longer lasting.
Slower Hair Growth
If you routinely receive waxing services, your hair will grow back slower and finer over time.
WHAT TO EXPECT The Waxing Treatment Process
Consultation If Desired
If it helps you feel more comfortable, you are more than welcome to book a consultation for waxing services. We can see the density and thickness of your hair type and answer any questions you may have about the waxing process. Then, we can book your waxing appointment.
Waxing Treatment
We’ll prepare the area, ensure you are comfortable, and begin the treatment. Our waxing professionals work quickly and effectively to minimize pain while delivering outstanding results.
Next Steps
After your appointment, your provider will go over any aftercare instructions. Most patients experience skin sensitivity for a 1-3 days following treatment. Make sure to avoid excess sun exposure or other irritants during that window. Then, we can book your next waxing appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions
We recommend regular waxing appointments every 3 to 4 weeks to accommodate the stages of hair growth. This timeframe may vary for each individual and their hair type.
For most people, waxing is better than shaving or plucking because it requires much less maintenance, slows hair growth over time, and causes less irritation.
Pain tolerance varies a lot from person to person. In general, the treatment area often dictates how painful the waxing may be. Our waxing specialists work hard to be quick without sacrificing quality service to keep you as comfortable as possible throughout. You can also take an over-the-counter pain medication before your appointment if needed.
