FAQ

Body waxing is a hair removal method that involves applying a warm wax to the skin and then removing it quickly, along with the unwanted hair. It can be performed on various parts of the body, including the legs, arms, back, and abdomen, to achieve smooth, hair-free skin.

While everyone’s pain tolerance is different, some discomfort can be expected during bikini waxing, particularly in more sensitive areas. However, at Komachi, we use techniques to minimize discomfort, and the sensation typically diminishes quickly after the wax is removed.

Waxing typically provides smooth, hair-free skin for several weeks, as it removes hair from the root. However, individual results may vary based on factors such as hair growth cycle and hair thickness. With regular waxing sessions, many clients find that hair regrowth becomes finer and less noticeable over time.

While facial waxing can be suitable for many people with sensitive skin, it’s essential to inform your esthetician about any skin sensitivities or allergies you may have. They can choose a suitable wax formula and perform a patch test if necessary to ensure that you won’t have an adverse reaction.

To prepare for a waxing appointment, it’s best to ensure that the targeted area is clean and free of lotions, oils, or makeup. It’s also recommended to avoid sun exposure and exfoliation for at least 24 hours before your appointment, as these can make the skin more sensitive.

Some skincare products and medications, such as retinoids or acne medications, can increase skin sensitivity and make waxing more uncomfortable. It’s essential to inform your esthetician about any skincare products or medications you’re using so they can advise you on the best course of action.

While many pregnant individuals choose to continue waxing during pregnancy, it’s essential to consult with your healthcare profesional before scheduling a waxing appointment. Hormonal changes during pregnancy can make the skin more sensitive.

For waxing to be effective, hair should ideally be at least a 6 mm (quarter-inch) long. This allows the wax to grip the hair properly and facilitate effective hair removal. If your hair is too short, it’s recommended to wait until it reaches the appropriate length before scheduling your waxing appointment.
