Get answers to common questions about Under Arms (Coconut/Lime).

Hair should be about 1/4 inch; avoid sun exposure and exfoliants 24 hours prior. Arrive clean, wear loose clothing, and skip heavy deodorant. We’ll help you choose coconut or lime and answer pre-treatment questions when you arrive.

Both scents are gentle; coconut is extra hydrating for dry or reactive skin, while lime offers a refreshing antiseptic lift. We assess your skin and recommend the option that minimizes irritation and maximizes comfort.

Temporary redness or mild sensitivity is common but usually fades within 24-48 hours. Proper aftercare helps prevent darkening. Persistent discoloration is rare; we use soothing products and provide guidance to minimize pigment changes.

For best results hair should be about 1/4 inch long (roughly the length of a grain of rice) so the wax can grip. If hair is too short we may be unable to remove it effectively.

Keep the area clean, avoid hot showers, saunas, and heavy deodorant for 24 hours. Use our recommended soothing gel or coconut oil, exfoliate gently after 48-72 hours, and wear breathable clothing to aid healing.

Avoid deodorant and vigorous exercise for at least 24 hours to reduce irritation and sweat-related rubbing. After the first day, use a fragrance-free gentle product if needed and monitor your skin’s response.
