Stripped’s ICONIC Cream Wax has a low melting temperature so it’s super safe and gentle on the skin. It removes hair quickly with the use of cotton strips.Hardwax is applied and removed after it has hardened and shrink-wrapped around the hair shaft. It’s recommended for sensitive skin and/or coarse hair and can only be applied to smaller, delicate areas such as the face or bikini area.

We designed the First-Time Brazilian service just for you! No need to be nervous. Just tell your Waxer it's your first time and they'll walk you through the entire process step by step.

Keep in mind, since it's your first time waxing, your hair follicles will be deeply rooted which can often take up to 2-3 waxing cycles for super smooth results.

Not at all. All of our services simply require you to lay on either your front or back.

Absolutely. Keep in mind getting waxed right before or during your period may be more uncomfortable than usual as your hormones and sensitivities are kicking in. The best time for down-there waxing is mid-cycle.

If you are visiting our Wax Bars for a service, we ask that you please wear a fresh tampon.

In order to keep our pricing consistent, we charge by the service area instead of the amount of hair.

If it’s your first time waxing, you may notice more irritation than usual due to the hair being deeply rooted. You may also not see super smooth results until your 2nd or 3rd consistent wax.

It’s normal to experience some redness after waxing. This typically subsides within 24–48 hours. If it’s your first time waxing or you have coarse hair, you may notice a bit more irritation — this is due to the hair being deeply rooted. To help soothe the area, try our Calm Down Rescue Cream.

Wear loose, breathable clothing to avoid friction and irritation on freshly waxed skin.

Keep your freshly waxed pores clean for at least 24 hours. Avoid activities that could introduce bacteria (ie. hot yoga, intense workouts, steam rooms, tanning, swimming in chlorinated pools, foot soaks after lower leg waxes).

Avoid shaving or trimming between appointments. We know it’s tempting, but regular, consistent waxing helps weaken the hair follicles over time, leading to slower, finer regrowth.

Book your appointment every 4–6 weeks. Sticking to a consistent waxing schedule allows the hair to grow in fully and evenly, resulting in smoother, longer-lasting results.

Prevent ingrown hairs by exfoliating regularly! Exfoliation removes dead skin buildup that can clog pores and trap new hair beneath the surface. Start exfoliating 2 days after your wax and continue daily.

For a gentle and effective exfoliation option, try our Buff Stuff Exfoliating Cloth — perfect for everyday use. For stubborn ingrown hairs and bumps, use a targeted spot treatment that deeply exfoliates and clears the pores. We recommend our Smooth Roller Ingrown Hair Treatment for fast and effective relief. 

Don’t forget to moisturize daily. Hydrated skin stays soft, making it easier for new hair to grow through without getting trapped.

For best results, hair should be at least 1/4" long (3 weeks since last wax or 4 weeks since last shave). Hair that’s too short may cause breakage, leaving you with unwanted stubble.

We recommend waxing every 5-6 weeks. Hair grows in different cycles, so it’s best to allow enough time for the hair to fully grow out before waxing again. This will ultimately lead to smoother results, for longer.

We don't recommend trimming before a wax. Trimming may result in the hair being too short. It also encourages more hair growth, the opposite of what we want!

The recommended time to wax before any big event (ie. wedding, anniversary, vacation) is 2-3 days. This will allow any redness or irritation to pass.

However, if this is your first time waxing, we strongly recommend completing at least 1 full waxing cycle to assess skin sensitivity, hair type and possible skin reactions. We would hate to see you head to your big day with irritated skin.

We don't recommend waxing on skin that has been exposed to heat and/or sun for at least 24 hours. We don't want to add any irritation to already irritated skin (especially sunburnt skin!).

It’s best to avoid friction and/or excessive sweat immediately after waxing as it may cause irritation and adverse reactions to your freshly waxed pores.
