Your First Visit
A little nervous? That's completely normal.
If you've never been waxed before—or you're simply trying a new esthetician—you probably have questions. I’m here to make you feel comfortable, respected, and confident throughout your entire service.
I’ll explain everything step-by-step, guide you through positioning, and check in with you throughout the appointment. You never have to feel embarrassed or apologize- I’ve truly seen it all!
If you need a moment, have a question, or want me to slow down, just let me know. Commuincation is always welcome.
My goal is for you to leave feeling comfortable, cared for, and confident in your skin.
Here's exactly what you can expect at Bare & Beauty.
Before your appointment…
LET YOUR HAIR GROW OUT!
Let your hair grow out before your appointment. We want ¼ inch, about 3-4 weeks of hair growth. Don’t worry if you think your hair is too long, the longer, the better!
Exfoliate
Gently exfoliate the area. I recommend some sort of scrub, exfoliating mitt, or dry brush.
AVOID…
Tanning, sunburn, or irritating skincare products.
Skin Care Products:
Stop using products containing retinoids, strong acids, or other exfoliants 5-7 days before your appointment, they can make the skin more vulnerable to lifting or irritation.
Day of Your Appointment…
Arrive with clean skin
Don’t apply lotions, body oil, or heavy creams.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing and breathable underwear and bottoms afterward.
When You Arrive…
Text or call me when you arrive so I can let you in. Please note that there is no waiting area.
You can use the restroom beforehand. Intimate wipes and tampons are available for you!
During Your Appointment…
Now it’s time to start your journey to smooth skin!
You don't need to "know how to pose." I will guide you through everything, one step at a time.
During your service, I’ll walk you through everything you need to know—from understanding your hair growth and the waxing process to proper aftercare. If you have any questions or concerns along the way, I’m always happy to answer them and make sure you feel comfortable and confident throughout your experience.
After Your Wax…
Excessive sweating
Sun exposure/ tanning
Hot showers/ baths
Heavy workouts
Swimming
Hot tubs
AVOID
Your skin is freshly waxed, so treat it gently for the next 24–48 hours. Give the area some breathing room, avoid heat and friction, and start gentle exfoliation after 48 hours to keep your skin smooth and help prevent ingrowns.
For 24-48 hours
After 24-48 hours…
Exfoliate 2-3 times a week
Moisturize everyday
DONT pick, squeeze, or scratch bumps or ingrown hairs
You don’t have to know what you’re doing. That’s my job.
