Yes, all of our estheticians are licensed in the State of Illinois and have a strong background in skincare education. We require our staff to go through ongoing training and continually stay on top of the latest techniques and products.

Have no fear, at The Wax and Skin Lounge double dipping is a no-no. Sticks are dipped into sterilized wax, applied to client once and then discarded.

There are many benefits to maintaining a regular hair removal cycle. Waxing regularly will cause the hair to grow back finer, thinner, and more sparse. We have three different hair growth cycles, please take into consideration that you may not be 100% smooth for your first appointment. We recommend trusting us for at least 4 services to experience the full benefits.

Our wax is 100% Vegan, Paraben Free, Polymers Free, Palm Oil Free, and Animal Cruelty Free. Our Estheticians use a combination of both hard and soft waxes to create a personalized experience to better meet your hair removal needs. You can request hard wax for a service that’s usually done with soft wax for an additional fee.

We won’t lie to you, hair removal can be uncomfortable. Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but you can expect a short, stinging like sensation after strips are pulled. We recommend taking an ibuprofen about 30 minutes before your appointment. (Please consult your physician before taking any medication).

It is very common for moms-to-be to get a bikini or brazilian just before giving birth. When booking let us know, so we can be sure to book more time in your appointment to ensure your comfort at all times.

We suggest 3-4 weeks hair growth for the body and 2 weeks growth for facial hair. For facial waxing/sugaring please do not use Retinol/Aha’s 5 days before your appointment.

The Wax & Skin Lounge prides itself on the cleanliness and sanitation procedures we have in place. Our Estheticians wear gloves. There is a “No Double Dipping Policy.” This ensures our Estheticians are using a clean stick for each application during your service, creating the ultimate level of sanitation. After using any tools/equipment, our staff is required to clean and sanitize to ensure no chance of cross-contamination. A fresh medical paper covering is used on the table for each guest. The table is also sanitized and disinfected after every guest.

Yes, pop on in! We would love to meet and do our best to accommodate your service if we are able.
