Waxing Benefits

Hair typical can regrow in 6 to 8 weeks. Waxing removes hair from below the skin at the root. When hair grows back it is softer hair. When removed at the root it takes longer to regrow. Continual waxing treatments cause the hair follicle to become weaker. The result is longer regrowth time and a reduction in hair growth.

Waxing is an efficient way to remove unwanted hair. Waxing can cause discomfort for the client. With training and practice a technician can become a "speed waxer" shortening the service time. A shorter waxing service time means minimal discomfort to the client, ultimately less pain.
