Frequently Asked Questions

Why Choose Eternal Wax Lounge?

Our skills and cleanliness.

We continue to perfect our practice and have years of experience and skincare knowledge. We also have established strict sanitary and hygiene practices, including: sanitized tables and tweezers, gloves on during services, pre-wax cleansing and post-wax care, and NEVER double-dipping into the wax pot!

WHY WAX?

Waxing is one of the best ways of hair removal. It is more effective than shaving since it removes hair from the roots, not just from the skin’s surface. Your results get better each appointment, and your skin will be bare for weeks. Over time, hair in waxed areas regrows lighter and more sparse, or not at all. Fine hair makes skin look dull, especially on the face, distorting and aging your features. Waxing will give you smoother, brighter skin.

How long does hair have to be to get a wax?

Your hair needs to be at least ¼ inch, or the length of a grain of rice. It takes about 2 weeks of not shaving the bikini area for hair to grow to this length. Hair that is shorter is typically not long enough to be pulled out by the wax; in this incident, you may need to reschedule to achieve ideal results. After your wax appointment, you should be able to reschedule for a maintenance in about a month.

WHO SHOULD NOT BE WAXED?

  • Anyone who has taken Accutain at any time within the past 6 months.

  • Anyone who has an active HSV outbreak

  • If you have sunburnt skin

  • Someone wanting facial waxing who had a chemical peel in the past week

  • Anyone who has used Retinol within the past week over the treatment area

  • Areas of the skin showing signs of trauma, varicose veins, open or active acne lesions, eczema, psoriasis or any type of dermatitis

Can we do Acrylic Nails?

  • We use Acrygel, a mix of acrylic and gel. It combines the best of each product, being much thinner on the nail than gel or acrylic, yet still durable.

Can I bring my child to my appointment?

To ensure your small children are safe, we do not allow them in the treatment rooms. Please make other arrangements for children who can not sit in the lobby unattended while you receive your service. We strive to ensure your wax specialist can devote her attention to your service, and so other guests also receive a pleasant experience.
