Get answers to common questions about Brazilian Tea Tree Wax.

For best results bring hair about a quarter to half an inch long, roughly two to three weeks of growth depending on your cycle. This length allows the wax to securely grip hairs for complete removal without excessive discomfort.

Tea tree oil reduces bacteria and soothes follicles, which can lower infection-related bumps. Proper exfoliation and aftercare are still important to prevent ingrown hairs; our technician will advise on routines and recommend products to keep hair growing outward and minimize ingrowns.

Many clients can safely receive waxing during pregnancy, but we recommend checking with your healthcare provider first. Technicians can modify techniques for comfort; due to increased sensitivity and possible contraindications, disclose pregnancy stage so we can ensure appropriate care and safety.

Results usually last three to six weeks depending on individual hair growth cycles and maintenance. Regular waxing can slow regrowth and make hair finer; scheduling every four to six weeks helps maintain smoothness and reduces discomfort over time.

Avoid heavy exfoliation, sunburn, tanning, or using retinol/alpha hydroxy products for at least 48 hours before your appointment. Arrive clean and avoid lotions or oils in the treatment area so the wax can adhere properly for optimal hair removal.

Proper aftercare calms skin and prevents infection: apply recommended tea tree after-gel, avoid hot baths and tight clothing for 24 hours, and exfoliate gently after 72 hours. These steps minimize inflammation, speed healing, and reduce chances of bumps or ingrown hairs.
