Your first Brazilian
doesn't have to
be scary.

FIRST TIME? WELCOME.

It just needs to be with the right person.

Every single one of Shannon's regulars was a first-timer once. This page has everything you need to show up confident, prepared, and ready to wonder why you waited so long.

Comfort Waxing Only

No rushing. No speed waxing.
Your pace, always.

Zero judgment

Nothing you say, ask, or look like will ever make you feel anything but welcome.

Extra time built in

First-time appointments get more time.
No rushing through your questions.

A NOTE FROM SHANNON

"I've never met a first-timer who wasn't nervous walking in. And I've never met one who wasn't relieved (and usually a little obsessed) walking out. Your comfort is my whole job. I've got you."

— Shannon, Licensed Esthetician

How To Prep.

5 things. That's it. Do these and you'll walk in ready for the smoothest possible result.

1.

Let it grow first

You need about a quarter inch of hair, roughly 3 to 4 weeks of growth after shaving. Think the length of a grain of rice.

TOO LONG? SHANNON CAN TRIM IT.

Exfoliate gently

2.

Make sure you exfoliate with a dry brush, body scrub, or net sponge
2-3x a week leading up to your appointment and 24 hours before.

SKIP DAYOF - TOO SENSITIVE.

Skip the moisturizer

3.

Moisturize leading up to your appointment, but skip it the day of. Product on the skin creates a barrier that stops the wax from gripping properly.

THE DAY BEFORE IS PERFECT.

Time it right

4.

Avoid scheduling during your period if you can. Skin is more sensitive at that time. Make sure you schedule at least 2 days before a trip / water exposure.

A WEEK BEFORE OR AFTER IS IDEAL.

Wear loose clothing

5.

After your wax, your skin will be a little sensitive. Loose, breathable clothing is your best friend. Skip tight waistbands or jeans for the rest of the day.

BEFORE YOU APPOINTMENT

SWEATS OR LOOSE DRESS = PERFECT.

That’s honestly it.
