💫Waxing Myths Busted: What’s Actually True (and What’s Totally Made Up!)
If we had a dollar for every waxing myth we’ve heard… we’d have a lot of wax pots 💅.
It’s time to set the record straight — because smooth skin deserves the truth! 💖
💬 Myth #1: Waxing Makes Hair Grow Back Thicker
Nope, nope, and nope 🙅♀️
When you wax, you remove hair from the root. Over time, the follicle weakens — meaning regrowth is finer, softer, and lighter.
Shaving cuts the hair bluntly at the surface, giving it that “thick” shadowy look when it grows back. So really… waxing helps thin your hair over time.
💬 Myth #2: Waxing Hurts Too Much to Handle
Listen — we’re not going to lie. It’s not a tickle. 😅
BUT with our technique, our The Lady Peng pre-wax oil, and a little distraction (we love a good story mid-wax), it’s quick, clean, and totally bearable.
Most clients say it hurts less every time they come in because their hair grows back finer and sparser.
💬 Myth #3: You Should Shave Between Waxes
Girl, no. Put down the razor. 🙅♀️
Shaving resets your growth cycle and can cause more ingrowns. Just exfoliate, moisturize, and let your hair grow to at least ¼ inch before your next appointment.
💬 Myth #4: Waxing Is Only for Summer
We wax all year long, baby. ❄️☀️
Staying consistent keeps your follicles weak, your skin smooth, and your maintenance easy. Plus, you’ll be beach-ready anytime.
💬 Myth #5: You Can’t Wax Sensitive Skin
Totally false. Sensitive skin just needs a gentler approach. We use low-temperature, high-quality waxes that adhere to the hair, not the skin, and prep with oil for protection. 💕
💋 The Truth
Waxing isn’t scary, it’s science — and we make it fun, safe, and empowering.
