Waxing removes hair from the root, compared to hair removal products like Nair and practices like shaving, which only remove hair from the skin’s surface.

Also, with waxing, hair typically grows back thinner and sparser.

Your hair must be 1/4 inch long for effective waxing. If the hair is too short, it will be difficult to remove.

However, if your hair is longer than 1/4 inch, you may experience more discomfort during the waxing treatment.

If you decide to shave, do it at least 7-10 days before your waxing appointment.
