Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Full Arms.

A typical Full Arms waxing service lasts 30 to 45 minutes depending on hair density and any required prep. We include cleansing, waxing both arms, and soothing aftercare. Please arrive with hair about a quarter inch long for best results.

Some discomfort is normal, especially on first appointments or with coarse hair, but our trained technicians use warming techniques and quick strips to minimize pain. Discomfort usually subsides quickly and aftercare reduces sensitivity.

Exfoliate gently two days before, avoid heavy sun or self-tanners, and ensure hair is about a quarter inch long. Arrive clean and skip moisturizers on the day. Tell us about medications or skin conditions beforehand.

Most clients experience smooth arms for three to six weeks depending on individual growth cycles. Regular waxing can slow regrowth and soften hair, extending intervals between appointments. We can recommend a schedule tailored to your hair type.

Temporary redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity are common for a few hours to a day. Using cool compresses and our soothing post-wax lotion reduces irritation. Contact us if you experience prolonged swelling, severe pain, or signs of infection.

Yes, we accommodate sensitive skin—please inform staff about allergies or reactions. We use gentle hypoallergenic waxes, patch tests on request, and tailored aftercare. If you’re on retinoids or have open wounds, wait until cleared by a professional.
