About sdbrazilians

What to Expect

• Your skin will be cleansed and prepped before treatment.
   
• Hair is removed quickly and gently from the root using wax or sugar paste.
   
• You may feel a quick sting during removal, but it subsides fast.
   
• Results last 3–4 weeks depending on your hair growth cycle.
   

• Hair length: Please allow at least 2–3 weeks of growth (about ¼ inch or the length of a grain of rice).
   
• Exfoliate: Gently exfoliate the area 24–48 hours before your appointment to remove dead skin and help prevent ingrowns.
   
• Clean skin: Arrive freshly showered with no lotions, oils, or deodorant on the area being treated.
   
• Comfort: Wear loose clothing to avoid friction afterward.
   
• Timing: For best results, avoid scheduling around your menstrual cycle when sensitivity is higher.
   

Waxing & sugaring may not be suitable if you have:

• Open cuts, wounds, bruises, or sunburn in the area.
   
• Active skin infections, rashes, or cold sores.

• Use of retinoids (Retin-A, Differin, Tazorac) within the last 7 days.
   
• Accutane use within the past year.
   
• Recent chemical peels, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion.
