A few weeks ago, I sucked up the courage and finally tried something I’ve been wanting to do for years… HAIR WAXING. Let me preface this by saying I am the world’s biggest baby when it comes to pain, so this was a huge deal for me. I’ve always wanted to see what all the hype was about, and share my experience with you guys. If you didn’t catch it, I shared some stories which you can find on my “Beauty” highlight tab on my Instagram.
Today I’ll be answering all of your questions about my experience at Waxing the City and if I think it’s worth it or not!
What exactly is hair waxing?
Waxing is a form of hair removal that removes the entire hair from the hair follicle. Warm wax is applied to the skin and adheres to the hair. When removed, the hair is pulled from the root.
How long does your hair have to be to get it waxed?
Your hair needs to be at least ¼” to ½” for effective waxing. For most people this means waiting 2-4 weeks (minimum of 2 weeks) from the last time you shaved. The longer you wait, the better the results!
What else do you need to do to prepare for your hair waxing appointment?
They recommend that you exfoliate the area several days prior to your appointment!
Does hair waxing hurt?
Not going to lie, yes. Obviously everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but I would say no matter who you are, you will experience a short, stinging sensation. The good thing is it only lasts about 15 seconds, and you really don’t even have time to worry about it because they’re already working on the next strip. The more you wax, the less it hurts!
What can help with hair waxing pain?
Take an ibuprofen or aspirin about 30 minutes before your appointment and that should help a bit!
Where did you go to get your hair waxing done?
I went to Waxing The City in Sugar Land and I honestly could not have had a better experience. The staff was SO sweet, knowledgeable and made me feel incredibly comfortable throughout the entire experience. I was really nervous when I got there and asked a million questions, yet they were so patient and sweet with me and made me feel so at home. Their salon is immaculately clean, and you can tell each staff member is just so passionate about what they do. I would highly recommend them if you are looking to get a waxing service done!
If you don’t have a Waxing The City near you, do your research! Make sure it’s clean and you feel comfortable in there and that they are licensed.
What kind of wax does Waxing the City use?
They use 2 different types of wax – hard wax (used on more sensitive areas of the body) and soft wax (used on larger body areas such as legs, arms, chest, and back and it is removed by using a cloth strip).
What Waxing the City service did you get done?
I actually got my legs waxed, believe it or not. In my mind, I thought that would be one of the easiest, least-painful area. Not sure I was right about that, haha. I forgot how much area your legs cover. But man was it nice to not have to shave my legs for awhile!
How long does hair waxing at Waxing the City last?
Mine lasted for a good 2 weeks, which was amazing because I was able to go on two different trips and didn’t have to shave once!
Would you go back to Waxing the City and do it again?
To be honest, I only think I would wax my legs again if I had a big event coming up (honeymoon, vacation, etc.). I think it’s AMAZING to not have to worry about shaving while you’re on a trip, and just enjoying your smooth legs. But for an ongoing service, I’m not sure it’s right for me. Something I do want to try and can actually see being a monthly service would be a bikini wax! That is something I think is 100% worth it, no matter what you have going on!
How often do you get waxed at Waxing the City?
There are several factors that help determine this such as your specific hair type, the area you’re getting waxed and how fast your hair grows, but on average say every 4 weeks.
How much does hair waxing at Waxing the City cost?
This all depends on the service you get and where you go, but you can view the pricing for Waxing The City here. If it’s your first time visiting them, just mention that and they will give you 50% off your service (no matter what you get done)!
