First Wax Appointment? What to Do 24 Hours Before (and What to Avoid)

If you’re thinking about booking your first wax, it’s completely normal to feel nervous. The good news? A little prep goes a long way toward making your appointment comfortable and stress-free.

Here’s exactly what to do—and what not to do—before your first wax.


24 Hours Before Your Wax: What to Do

  • Gently exfoliate the area
  • Shower the day of or night before
  • Wear loose clothing to your appointment
  • Make sure hair is about the length of a grain of rice

That’s it. No complicated routines needed.


What to Avoid Before Waxing

  • Don’t shave (even “just a little”)
  • Avoid tanning or sun exposure
  • Skip heavy lotions or oils
  • Avoid caffeine right before your appointment

These small things can make a big difference in comfort.


What to Expect During Your First Wax

  • Your specialist will explain everything
  • You can ask questions at any time
  • The process is quick and professional
  • Discomfort is brief and manageable

Most first-time clients say:
“That wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected.”
