How long should my hair be for a wax?

Your hair should be about a quarter of an inch long, which is roughly the length of a grain of rice. That is about 3 weeks of growth. As the American Academy of Dermatology advises, this length allows the wax to get a firm grip on the hair for a clean removal, rather than pulling at the skin.

Does a Brazilian wax hurt?

Yes, you can expect some pain, as a Brazilian wax involves pulling hair from a sensitive area. However, the sharp, stinging sensation is very brief. As WebMD explains in its guide to Brazilian waxing, the first session is typically the most painful, but the discomfort lessens significantly with regular appointments as the hair may grow back finer and the follicles become weaker. To help manage the experience, they suggest you avoid scheduling your wax right before or during your period, as your skin is more sensitive at that time.

Why choose PureWax for my Brazilian wax?

Licensed esthetician, strict hygiene standards, and premium-quality wax make us the top choice for Brazilian waxing San Jose residents trust. We prioritize your comfort and deliver flawless results every single time.

How can I prevent ingrown hairs?

Exfoliate the area gently two to three times a week, starting 48 hours after your wax, and keep the skin moisturized. The Cleveland Clinic recommends exfoliation to remove dead skin cells that can trap hair, which is the primary cause of those painful bumps.

How should I prepare for waxing?

Complete our waxing consent form beforehand for safety instructions. Our Waxing San Jose Salon makes sure that you're an eligible person to receive a wax or any beauty service before your session so that you won't get an allergic reaction.
