Preparing for Your Waxing

To ensure the best results and most comfortable experience, please review the following guidelines before your waxing appointment at Rivage Day Spa.

Pre-Wax Guidelines

  • Allow hair to grow to at least ¼ inch (about the size of a grain of rice) for proper removal.

  • Gently exfoliate the area 1–2 days before your appointment to remove dead skin and help prevent ingrown hairs.

  • Arrive with clean skin free of heavy oils, lotions, or deodorant in the treatment area.

  • Please advise your technician of any allergies, retinol use, or medications that may affect skin sensitivity.

  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning for 24–48 hours before your appointment.

  • Avoid caffeine before your appointment, as it can increase skin sensitivity.
