Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Shoulders.

Arrive with clean, dry skin and at least 1/4 inch of regrowth. Avoid heavy sun exposure, self-tanners, and exfoliants 24–48 hours prior. Hydrate and avoid retinoids three days before. Communicate any sensitivities so we can tailor the treatment.

You may feel quick discomfort during strips, but sessions are brief and manageable. Sensitivity usually decreases after a few sessions. Results commonly last three to six weeks depending on hair growth and care—regular appointments extend smoothness and reduce regrowth density.

Active sunburns, open wounds, severe eczema, psoriasis flares, or recent chemical peels may prevent waxing. Inform us about medications like Accutane or topical retinoids. We'll assess skin and recommend alternatives or wait periods to ensure safety and best results.

Ideal hair length is about 1/4 to 1/2 inch so the wax grips hairs effectively. If hair is too short we may ask you to wait; if too long we'll trim slightly for a cleaner, more comfortable service.

Avoid hot showers, heavy exercise, saunas, and tanning for 24–48 hours. Wear breathable clothing and avoid tight straps. Exfoliate gently after 48 hours and apply a soothing, fragrance-free moisturizer to reduce irritation and lower ingrown hair risk.

Yes. We can often combine shoulders with back, chest, or neck waxing for efficient results. Allow more appointment time and disclose skin sensitivities. Booking combined services may save time and help coordinate aftercare to ensure optimal comfort and healing.
