Underarm waxing causes brief stinging rather than prolonged pain; sensitivity varies by person. Our experienced estheticians use proper technique and soothing products to reduce discomfort. Numbing creams are rarely necessary, and repeat waxing usually becomes less painful.

Trim hair to about a quarter inch for best results and arrive with clean, deodorant-free underarms. Avoid heavy exfoliation or retinoids within a few days prior. Communicate sensitivities so we can select the right wax and technique.

Keep the area clean and avoid deodorant or harsh products for 24 hours. Skip hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise for the first day. Apply a soothing aloe gel and exfoliate gently after 48–72 hours to prevent ingrowns.
