How to prep for your first Brazilian wax
Great results start days before your appointment:
- Grow it out: let hair reach about ¼ inch (2–3 weeks of growth). Too short and the wax can’t grip.
- Don’t shave in between — it resets the clock and thickens regrowth.
- Exfoliate gently 48 hours before to lift dead skin and prevent ingrowns.
- Skip caffeine and alcohol the morning of; both heighten sensitivity.
- Tell us about retinoids or Accutane — waxing over these can lift skin, so we’ll adjust.
What actually happens in the room
Your esthetician cleanses the area, applies a thin layer of premium hard wax, and removes it in quick, controlled sections. Hard wax shrink-wraps the hair, not your skin, so it’s gentler than the strip wax you may have tried elsewhere. The whole service usually takes 20–30 minutes, and yes — you can absolutely talk us through it.
Does it hurt? An honest answer
The first pull is the most surprising, not the most painful. Because hair is thickest on a first visit, sensation is highest now and drops with every future appointment as regrowth comes in finer. Most clients rate it a quick sting that fades in seconds. Timing your visit for the week after your period also lowers sensitivity.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long should my hair be for a Brazilian wax?
About a quarter of an inch — roughly two to three weeks of growth after shaving. If it’s longer, we’ll trim it for you.
How long does a Brazilian wax take?
A first Brazilian wax at Dazzling takes about 20–30 minutes, including cleansing and soothing aftercare.
Will the hair grow back thinner?
Yes. Because waxing removes hair from the root, regrowth over time becomes finer, softer and sparser, so many clients stretch to every 4–6 weeks.
