First salon visit for waxing!

Hi everyone,

After dealing with wax at home kits for several years, I’ve finally decided to get waxed at a salon at the end of this week. I’m going to get my underarms and legs done. My question is rather silly: what do I wear to a waxing? Obviously, I can’t wear shorts/tank tops because I’d have hair showing!

Do you wear regular tee-shirts/long pants, and then strip down at the salon for the waxing? I can’t help but feel embarassed revealing my hairy semi-nude self to a total stranger <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />.

The first thing to remember is that you shouldn’t feel weird about being semi-nude in front of a waxer, if their practice is anything like mine they see fully nude clients all the time. That being said I know its hard to control those natural feelings of discomfort. Most likely your waxer will have a towel or sheet to comver you with. If you need more coverage you may want to bring along a tank and short (if you are only doing a half leg wax) and slip them on when you are given time to change. Your waxer probebly won’t even mention it and if they do you can just say that you prefer to remain covered. Its no big deal, and we want you to be comfortable as possible with the whole process.
good luck, I think you are going to be amazed how much better it is going to a professional then doing it at home.
