When it comes to hair removal, if you say “waxing,” some might grimace and squirm. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of misinformation about the procedure. The good news is when performed by a professional, facial waxing can be painless and produce beautifully smooth skin for extended periods of time. The team of estheticians at 151 Hair Company in Onalaska, WI, has perfected the technique, so clients feel comfortable and happy with the results. From the area’s premier facial waxing specialists, here are answers to frequently asked questions about the application.

Facial Waxing FAQs

Will I Experience Pain?

It depends on the person’s tolerance level. Some can handle a little discomfort better than others. It also depends on the hair’s thickness. The procedure is performed in a way to cleanly and quickly remove facial hair.

Does Skin Irritation Occur?

Some may experience minor irritation around the area of removal while others may not. The hair root’s thickness is also a factor for whether or not irritation occurs. If any redness or other sensitivities appear, they typically clear up in less than 24 hours.

Will the Hair Grow Back Thicker?

Your hair will grow back in thinner and sparse. Regular facial waxing procedures are designed to minimize the appearance of hair to the point where it’s hard to detect. Hair won’t grow back darker either.

Will I Have to Deal With Ingrown Hairs?

Because the entire hair follicle is removed, the skin surrounding the waxed area tends to become hard and may result in ingrown hairs. One surefire way to prevent them is applying a very gentle scrub product on the area at least three days after the procedure. Exfoliate once or twice a week, and apply an antimicrobial and antibacterial skin-safe product to the waxed area.
