Frequently Asked Questions

 

CAN I BRING A FRIEND IN THE ROOM WITH ME FOR SUPPORT WHILE I'M BEING WAXED?

At The Beauty Strip, you are in the best possible hands! Our insurance policy states no one except the person receiving the service is allowed in the waxing room.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENT BETWEEN A BIKINI, BIKINI PLUS & A BRAZILIAN?

Our Bikini wax is considered underwear or swimsuit friendly. Our Bikini Plus is a Bikini that tucks it in a little bit more and includes the backside. Our Brazilian is everything front and back, or you may leave a triangle or landing strip. Our advice? If you’re gonna do it, wax it all!

WHAT SHOULD I DO TO PREPARE FOR A WAXING APPOINTMENT

Out of consideration to your wax technician, come freshly showered. If you are used to shaving, make sure your hair is at least 1/4 an inch long.

SHOUD I TRIM BEFORE I COME IN?

No! More often than not, people trim too much .If your hair is too short, the wax won’t adhere very well and some hair may be left behind. Leave the trimming to us!

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET WAXED?

For most people, the ideal time frame is every four weeks.

IS IT TRUE THE MORE CONSISTENT I AM WITH WAXING THE LIGHTER THE HAIR RE-GROWTH IS?

From our experience, this is true. Especially when you are maintaining a regular four-week waxing schedule. Over time hair follicles adapt to not having hair and growth slows down. However, once you stop waxing on a regular basis, the follicles adapt again and you will revert back to your pre-waxing growth cycle.

WHAT SHOULD I DO FOR POST WAX CARE?

Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate! We carry a line of affordable skincare products and loofahs to help keep those pesky ingrown hairs away.
