Waxing

PLEASE INFORM YOUR ESTHETICIAN, PRIOR TO SERVICE, OF:

• Any medications you are taking, even over-the-counter.
  Examples: Tazorac, Differen, Alphahydroxies, anti-aging products or creams, Retinals, Vitamin-A peels, blood pressure medication, blood thinners, antibiotics, Tomoxifin
• Any medical or physical conditions that affect you currently or recently.
  Examples: menstruation or pregnancy, yeast, fungal or vaginal infection, Lupus, Rosacea, auto-immune deficiencies, allergies, STIs or cancers

We have successfully provided services for many with any of the above health conditions. With proper notification, we can use methods to prevent any irritation or tearing of the skin. If irritation or damage occurs, we recommend using our BEE RELIEVED, BEE CALM, and BEE COOL products, as well as vitamin E oil, on the area for a 3 to 4 day healing process.

If your skin is sensitive, your bikini/Brazilian or body wax may cause the temporary enlargement of the hair follicles, allowing bacteria residing on the skin to cause skin infections. If an infection is noted, it should be evaluated and treated by a doctor as soon as possible.

Hygiene suggestions for optimal waxing results:

Please bathe and or freshen up before your Brazilian, bikini or body wax treatment. Do not apply lotion.

Hair growth should be ¼ inch long (2-3 weeks of hair growth if you shaved or clipped).

Daily for two days before your waxing appointment, gently exfoliate with our bikini loofah brush and one of our signature natural, organic and hypo-allergenic scrub products:

BEE SUGARED is a natural sugar-based exfoliant containing cane sugar, comfrey root extract, and sweet almond oil. It is used to assist with hydration and the removal of dead skin build up, preventing ingrown hairs, acne and uneven skin tone.

BEE SCRUBBED is a mild foaming formula made of volcanic pumice stone and kukui nut.  It contains fruit enzymes that help improve the texture of uneven skin and fade out hyper pigmentation or dark spots.

We recommend a natural brush for the skin with soft or medium jute/sisal bristles (replace your bikini brush 4 times a year).

Please refrain from tanning salons, sunburns and excess sun exposure for two days before service.

Sensitivity may be experienced in the waxed area for 24 to 48 hours following a bikini or body waxing.

During that time, keep the area clean and avoid heat or friction. This means no hot baths or showers (use cool to lukewarm water only); no saunas, hot tubs or steam treatments; no tanning, sunbathing, sunbeds or spray tans. Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools.

Wear clean, loose fitting clothing to prevent irritation. Cotton-lined panties are recommended during the day and it is advisable to sleep without underwear, in loose-fitting pajamas. Change out of sweaty clothes and use our scrub, baby wipes or a mild soap to clean bikini area as soon after exercise as possible.

Follow up with a cold compress if you experience sensitivity. Always wash your hands before applying any products. We do not recommend you apply deodorants, body sprays, powders, lotions, or other products to the area, except the BWC signature after-care skin treatments, which can be used daily.

Our BEE WAXED COSMETICS power TRIO KIT does wonders to prevent all kinds of skin issues (can be used individually):

Step 1 – BEE CLEAR is a spot serum that contains salicylic acid, an active substance that helps exfoliate dead skin cell buildup, preventing ingrown hairs, bumps, and acne.

Step 2 – BEE CALM is an anti-inflammatory serum that contains 15% arnica, a natural healing agent known for the improvement of capillary tissue function and normalizing blood circulation, reducing swelling, redness and damage from chafing or bruising.

Step 3 – BEE COOL is a recovery cream for itching, swelling, and redness. It is a natural alternative to cortisone and Benadryl that relieves rashes, eczema and hives. It helps heal torn, irritated or chafed skin and relieves sensitive or dry skin.

Starting a few days after your appointment, gently scrub the skin daily in the bath or shower using our bikini brush loofah to prevent ingrown hairs. Use our BWC exfoliants every day to keep the skin supple and help new hairs grow through normally.

BEE SUGARED is for dead skin removal and hydration, and BEE SCRUBBED helps with stubborn pigmentation or uneven textured skin. Dry brush the waxed area with a natural soft or medium bristle brush for improved circulation and exfoliation effects.

You may notice a small amount of regrowth after a week or so. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives best results. Hair needs to be at least ¼ inch long before it can be successfully removed by waxing; please do not shave or clip between your appointments. To maintain your smooth appearance, we recommend regular waxing every 4-6 weeks.

Please be advised that there is a 24-hour requirement for cancellations of any service. If you fail to cancel your appointment 24 hours in advance, you will be charged 20% of the service cost.

This applies to any to our appointment based services: Facials, Brazilian Waxing, and Lashes.
