The Basics Of Waxing From Your Luxx Lash Waxing Service Experts

 

In the last several years, waxing has become a more common and popular practice offered at salons and spas. All types of areas are offered, from underarms to upper lip to arms and legs, many people choose professional waxing for the longer-lasting hair removal it provides, without going through the pain and hassle themselves.

Whether you are a waxing veteran and come in for monthly wax sessions, or a newcomer who just wants to break away from the hassle of shaving, Luxx Lash Salon and Boutique offers premiere waxing services for everything from lips to a Brazilian. Here are some expert tips to get you prepared for your wax, as well as what to expect – even if you’ve had the procedure before.

When Should You Get A Waxing Service?

Waxing is recommended for people of all ages and genders. Many people begin undergoing wax treatments at a young age, when the hair is fine and will be less painful to remove. Waxing is beneficial as it removes hair directly from the root, as opposed to trimming or shaving, which leaves behind that “shadow” with the hair follicle still below the skin.

As an added bonus? Hair grows back thinner!  Waxing lasts up to a month in most places and will stay away even longer with proper exfoliation and care afterward. Luxx Lash Salon and Boutique offers premiere waxing services to get rid of those little pesky hairs from your chest, abdomen, full back and extended bikini.

What to Expect During a Waxing Session

First, your wax specialist will clean and disinfect the area. Then, they will apply the wax and remove small areas of hair at a time. There are two different types of wax services for certain part of the body. Soft wax is done with paper or muslin strips, and is used on larger areas of the body such as the leg or armpit. Hard wax is used to remove hair in the bikini, underarm and face area. Afterwards, they’ll remove any wax residue and apply cream.

If you’ve shaven recently, wait five days. And though the time does vary between waxes, depending on how quickly or coarsely the hair grows back, it’s best to wait around a month to get re-waxed. In case of emergency, such as seeing a new boyfriend or a vacation, scheduling an appointment within three weeks is no problem.

The Bride’s Guide to Beauty Wedding Prep

When planning a wedding, it is very easy to get overwhelmed with your many tasks. From picking a venue to securing the décor, as a bride, you have a massive number of things to handle before your big day. However, it is very important that you think about yourself during the planning process as well.

Your wedding day will undoubtedly be one of the most special events of your life, and with so many cameras around, you need to look beautiful. From your eyebrows down to your toes, there are a plethora of things you need to tackle during the month leading up to your walk down the aisle.

 

Month of Wedding Beauty Checklist

Are you a month from becoming a “Mrs”? Check out this list of beauty tasks you need to complete before your big day.

Makeup Trial

On your wedding day, your makeup can make or break your bridal look. And if you are someone who doesn’t frequently wear makeup or get it done professionally, it can be a bit tough to figure which look suits you best. Because of this, it is a good idea to choose a makeup artist and do a makeup trial the month leading up to your wedding day. This allows you and the artist to create something that you are comfortable with now and will be comfortable with in the future. Also, be sure to take pictures so the makeup artist can recreate the look with ease on your big day. This can also help cut down on the time it will take to get your makeup done the day of as well.

Eyelash Extensions

If you are considering getting eyelash extensions, now is the perfect time to get them installed. Whether you decide to get classic lash extensions or specialty volume lashes for an exceptionally natural look, booking your appointment a few weeks before your wedding day is best. By doing this task earlier on, you can get a better feel for your lashes and make modifications over time to create the perfect lash look.

Waxingwedding day prep-waxing

From your legs to your arms to your bikini area, hair removal is something that is probably high on your wedding day prep list. To help you keep the hair away longer, you should consider waxing these areas. However, don’t wait until the last minute to do so.

Waxing can cause redness in some areas, so to avoid blotchy skin on your wedding day, make your waxing appointment at least 2 weeks beforehand.

Eyebrow Maintenance

Your eyebrows serve as a major focal point for your face, therefore, they are very important. To ensure your brows are on point for your walk down the aisle, book your brow appointment with a brow expert for an eyebrow threading session.

If you have eyebrows that need a little TLC, eyebrow extensions are something you should look into. Eyebrow extensions work by literally adding in individual hairs to create a fuller brow. And for a brow transformation, they’re well worth it!

Tanning Session

In your wedding dress, you want to look flawless and that includes glowing skin! So, instead of hitting the tanning beds or baking in the sun, a great way to get a sun-kissed look without the sunburn is sunless tanning. Sunless tanning sessions are customizable so you can get a natural looking color that won’t make you cringe when you look back at your wedding photos years down the road.

To prevent yourself from having any mishaps, book your sunless tanning sessions out over the month of your wedding to ensure you have the perfect glow.

Mani and Pedi

Your hands will get some major play on your wedding day, especially your ring finger. That is why it is important that you have an immaculate manicure and pedicure. While this is a beauty task you probably do often already, your wedding day mani and pedi need to be extra special. While this task can be put off until the week or even a few days before your wedding, you still need to put in some effort by adding it to your list and checking it off.

Wedding Prep Services from Luxx Lash Salon & Boutique

The closer it gets to your wedding day, the busier you will become. However, with this list in hand, you will be able to tackle these wedding day beauty tasks with ease.

If you are ready to get started on your list, contact Luxx Lash to book your appointment. Lash extensions, sunless, eyebrow waxing, and eyebrow extensions… we do them all!

From Eyebrow Extensions to Tweezers: The Guide to Perfect Eyebrows

If there’s one beauty trend that defined the year 2015, it’s “eyebrows on fleek”. Perfectly shaped brows have become more than just good grooming – they’re a must-have fashion accessory. With hundreds of video tutorials and Pinterest manuals on how to get the perfect brows, we don’t see this trend going anywhere anytime soon. From eyebrow extensions to tweezers, here are a few tips to help your brows reach their full “fleekness” potential.

 

Find an Eyebrow Threading Artist You Love

The internet is full of them – horror stories of eyebrow waxing and threading. Unfortunately, many people fall victim to inexperienced, and even unqualified, eyebrow artists that damage the shape of their brows. If you are new to eyebrow threading or are looking for a more seasoned artist, find a beauty salon that specializes in eyebrows rather than one that includes eyebrow threading on a menu along with 100 other services. Rather than just hiring anyone who threads eyebrows, these salons recruit only those who are masters of the art of eyebrow shaping. Once you find an artist you trust, don’t let them go!

 

Invest in a Good Set of Tweezers

Most people visit the eyebrow salon at least once a month to maintain their shape. However, depending on your hair growth rate, you may need to keep a set of tweezers in your makeup bag to keep them well-groomed in between. You can find good tweezers anywhere from drug stores to high end makeup counters. No matter what brand you choose, make sure that it feels comfortable in your hands.

The best time to tweeze your brows is right after a shower, when your pores are open and relaxed. Do your best to stay as far away from the shape as possible. Only pluck the hairs that are a safe distance away. A magnifying mirror and good lighting can help you get a closer look and nip any stray hairs right out of the bud. If you fear you might go a little tweezer-happy with your brows, solicit the help of a friend.

 

eyebrow pencil and eyelash extensions for perfect browsFill Them in (Naturally)

Sharpie eyebrows belong back in the 90’s, not on your face. While filling in your eyebrows with makeup can create a beautiful, bold look, you don’t want to overdo it to the point where it looks unnatural. Instead, use an eyebrow pencil or eyebrow powder on an angled brush a shade or two lighter than your natural hair color. Apply the powder or liner in strokes, following the existing shape of your brows. Remember, you don’t want to recreate the shape, but rather emphasize it. When you’re done, lightly brush a highlighting product directly beneath the brows to further enhance the arch and shape.

 

Try Eyebrow Extensions

For those of us not naturally blessed with full, thick, dark eyebrows like the Kardashians and Cara Delevingne, flawless brows are still possible. Eyebrow extensions are a safe, effective way to achieve a perfectly beautiful shape. Unlike eyelash extensions, which can only be applied to existing natural eyelashes, brow extensions can be applied directly to the skin with a special skin glue, even in areas where no hair is present. This allows unlimited potential for eyebrow shaping, and makes it a great option for women who have gone through chemotherapy or suffer alopecia.

 

Statement brows do more than just add beauty, glamour, and youthfulness to one’s appearance – they also provide a huge boost of confidence, allowing your inner beauty to shine, as well. Contact Luxx Lash Salon & Boutique to schedule an appointment and get the eyebrows of your dreams!

What to Expect During an Eyebrow Waxing

It’s no secret that a pair of bold eyebrows are the ultimate beauty accessory right now. In fact, many women are growing out their thin and over-plucked eyebrows to reclaim their natural eyebrow shape, and many others are looking for alternative services such as eyebrow extensions to add boldness to their brows. As such a prominent facial feature, impeccably shaped eyebrows can transform an entire face – especially when paired with eyelash extensions!

Having statement eyebrows does not have to mean forgoing brow grooming altogether. Even when you are growing out an area of your eyebrows, you should still be shaping and trimming to prevent them from looking messy. One of the best ways to maintain your eyebrow shape is eyebrow waxing. Compared to tweezing and threading, waxing allows for the longest period before regrowth. Hence, it is a popularly preferred by women as a brow grooming technique.

Whether you are cleaning up your natural eyebrows or maintaining a certain shape, eyebrow waxing If you are thinking about booking your first eyebrow waxing appointment, here are a few things that you should know:

Schedule Your Waxing Appointment Around Important Events

During the first few hours following your waxing appointment, the waxed area may appear red. If you have sensitive skin, this could last even longer. Hence, it is recommended that you avoid scheduling your first eyebrow waxing appointment on the same day as an important event – especially if you expect to take photos and have photos take of you.

 

A Trim May Be Included

Maintenance of your eyebrows does not only require removing excess hairs, but trimming long ones as well. Leaving long hairs could effect the shape of the eyebrows and cause them to look messy. Don’t worry if you see a pair of trimmers – it’s all part of the process.

 

The Regrowth Needs to Be Long Enough

If you’ve had any other part of your body waxed before, you know that the hair must grow to a certain length before it can be removed again. Otherwise, the wax will not be able to grasp the hair firmly enough to remove it. Typically, you should expect to need an appointment every 3 to 4 weeks.

 

The Pain Will Lessen Over TimeEyebrow waxing Dallas salon

The first time you have your eyebrows waxed, you can expect to experience some discomfort. This is due to the fact that the hair is thick and because there is more to remove. However, the more you wax your eyebrows, the thinner the hair and the less will need to be removed. Each appointment will be less painful than the other until it’s a breeze each time!

 

Use a Numbing Cream to Minimize Any Discomfort

If you are worried about the pain of your first waxing appointment, apply some topical numbing cream to your eyebrows and the skin around them about 30 minutes before your appointment. This can do wonders in minimizing the discomfort you may feel and can also be used for waxing any other area of your body. Rubbing ice on and around your eyebrows after your appointment also helps decrease any swelling that may occur and helps the fade the redness. During your appointment, ask your beauty salon if they have any available.
