Waxing Services in Dearborn MI

Unwanted hair on your face can leave you feeling embarrassed. Perhaps you’ve spent a significant amount of time in front of the mirror, going at the rogue hairs with a pair of tweezers. You may be thinking, “There has to be a better way.” And, indeed, there is!

Leaving you with a smooth, hair-free face for several weeks, facial waxing is a process that involves removing unwanted facial hair at the root. Here are some things you should know about facial waxing to help you decide if it is the right option for you.

There has to be sufficient hair to wax in the first place for a waxing session to be successful. So, if you regularly pluck or do any at-home waxing, you will need to take a hiatus from your normal routine. The hairs need to be approximately ¼ to ½ inch in length or longer to give the wax enough length to hold on to and pull out. Growing out facial hair can take anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks.

If you are prone to acne, facial waxing may not be right for you. This is because your skin is likely more sensitive, and sensitive skin is more prone to complications such as tearing during the procedure. In addition to that, waxing may cause more acne breakouts after the procedure is completed.

Waxing salons and Med Spas which offer waxing services usually present a menu of waxing selections to choose from for the full body wax. While it is possible to sign up for a complete head to toe waxing, you will usually be asked to specify all the areas you want treated. Areas which can be waxed include:

● The entire stomach or just the lower stomach

● The chest

● The entire back and shoulders or just the upper back

● Arms and legs (with options for waxing just the lower half of the arms or legs)

● Buttocks

● Hands and feet

● Bikini areas (with options on complete hair removal or just specific areas)

● Areas on the face including upper lips and eyebrows.

Once you have chosen the areas you want treated, it is time to experience the full body wax. The aesthetician will use either soft or hard wax, depending on the type of hair that needs to be removed (thick or thin) and the areas the hair is covering.

If soft wax is used, the warmed wax will be applied to the treated areas. A cloth strip is pressed onto the wax, and then the strip is quickly removed in the opposite direction of hair growth. Hard, warm wax is placed directly on the skin and left to harden before it is removed from the hair.

You could see hair again in as few as a couple of days when you first get waxed. This does not necessarily mean the technician did an inadequate job, so do not panic and run to another beauty salon. While there could have been hair breakage, it is likely that some hairs simply were not yet long enough to be grasped.

Typically, it is suggested that you get waxed every two to four weeks after your first appointment. This helps to remove any hair that was growing subcutaneously during your last appointment. Proceeding this, how regularly you should get waxed depends on how visible the hair is, how much it bothers you, and your budget.
