What should I do if I’m on medication or have allergies before my waxing appointment?
If you are currently taking any medications or have known allergies, we strongly advise consulting with your healthcare provider and informing our waxing specialist (waxologist) before your appointment. This step is essential because certain medications, such as antibiotics or topical acne treatments, can increase skin sensitivity and potentially lead to skin lifting during the waxing process. Your safety and comfort are our top priorities, so please communicate any relevant information to ensure the best waxing experience possible.
