How much does waxing hurt?

On a scale of 1 to 10 - 1 being moderate pain and 10 the worst pain ever - I would say the first time hurts between 5 and 8, depending on the client. I think the anticipation is the worst. I always try to talk with my clients, keeping their minds busy with fun conversation. That way, they don't concentrate on the pain.

I just had another pain free wax from Nayla

“ I just had another pain free wax from Nayla! She is so quick, efficient and friendly at the same time. Overall, it is the least painful wax I've ever had- and I've been getting them for 15years in several cities across the country. They really do a fantastic job there! I've referred a couple of friends who have been wanting to try a brazilian wax for the first time. . . ”

The tech did a great job

Had my brows shaped and dyed

“ Had my brows shaped and dyed. . . . And they look amazing ! I have blonde hair, making my natural eyebrows blonde/brown mix. Dying them a med brown, fills my eyebrows and makes my green eyes pop! She works with me on the color too, making sure they are the exact color I want (not too dark). Oh, and she kills it on brow shaping. Highly recommend her!
I Love Pia's. ”
