Tinting & Waxing Services in Fort Collins

We use Cirepil Blue hard wax (strip less wax) for all of our waxing services

If it's your first time with us, you must have at least 3 weeks of hair growth for body waxing. It is recommended that you come in every 4-6 weeks. This allows your skin to acclimate to being waxed, slowing your hair growth, and helps to promote better results between treatments.

- Have at least 3 weeks of hair growth for body waxing.

- A good rule of thumb is to let the hair grow to at least ¼ of an inch long, or the length of an eyelash, before going for your bikini wax or Brazilian.

- Discontinue use of any Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA) or glycolic products 48-72 hours prior to waxing.

- Discontinue use of Retin-A, Renova or Accutane (an oral form of Retin-A) one week prior to waxing.

- Avoid heat. No tanning beds, hot tubs and saunas 48 hours prior to your appointment.

- Exfoliate the area gently 24 hours before your appointment will remove the dead skin cells and allow for a cleaner wax.

Everyone reacts differently to waxing. Please read the following post-care and be prepared to sign our waxing consent form.

- Avoid heat. No tanning, sun bathing, hot tubs or saunas for 24 hours after your treatment. Since a layer of dead skin cells have been removed, sun and or heat exposure can burn the skin.

- No hot water on your face for 2 hours following your treatment.

- Your Esthetician will apply oil to the waxed areas to help calm and help the waxed skin. If you are feeling sensitive after returning home, you may apply a cold compress to soothe the skin.

- You may return to using exfoliating products and Retin-A 72 hours after waxing.

Most often, clients do not have "sensitive" skin but have created a "sensitized environment" by dehydrating, over exfoliating, and disrupting the pH of the skin. In this case, you may be more prone to redness or flaking after waxing. Again, we will apply the Auspect RedNoMore serum to help calm and heal your skin. We may also apply our No Problem serum if you are prone to breakouts after waxing; this serum helps to treat and prevent breakouts. If you experience inflammation or prolonged redness you may apply a cool compress to the area.

- People who have allergies to the wax's ingredients.

- Anyone with active cold sores.

- People taking any medications that thin the skin.
