​

Welcome to Live Awake Wax & Laser Studio, Langley's trusted destination for professional body waxing services. Located in Brookswood at 20503 42nd Ave, we specialize in gentle, effective waxing for all body areas.

From quick underarm waxing to full-body treatments, we make hair removal easy and as comfortable as possible.

Why Choose Waxing for Hair Removal?

Body waxing remains one of the most popular and effective hair removal methods for good reason. Unlike shaving, which only removes hair at the surface, waxing pulls hair from the root, delivering smooth skin that lasts 3-6 weeks. Over time, regular waxing can even reduce hair growth, making each session easier and results longer-lasting.

Benefits of Professional Body Waxing:

• Long-lasting smoothness - Results last 3-6 weeks, not just days

• Finer regrowth - Hair grows back softer and thinner over time

• Reduced hair growth - Regular waxing can permanently reduce hair density

• Exfoliation benefits - Removes dead skin cells along with unwanted hair

• No stubble or razor burn - Smooth skin without irritation

• Precision - Clean lines and thorough hair removal

• Time-saving - Less frequent maintenance than shaving

• Confidence - Smooth, hair-free skin for weeks

What to Expect During Your Waxing Appointment

Your First Visit

1. Consultation (2-5 minutes) We'll discuss which areas you want waxed, any concerns or sensitivities, and answer your questions.

2. Preparation We'll cleanse the area and prepare your skin for waxing.

3. Waxing Treatment Using professional techniques, we'll apply warm wax, allow it to adhere to hair, then quickly remove it along with unwanted hair. The process is repeated until the area is smooth.

4. Soothing Treatment We apply soothing lotion or gel to calm skin and reduce any redness.

5. Aftercare Instructions We'll provide specific aftercare guidance to maintain your smooth results and prevent ingrown hairs.

How Long Does Waxing Take?

Treatment times vary by area:

• Underarms: 15 minutes

• Upper lip or chin: 5-10 minutes

• Bikini line: 15-20 minutes

• Brazilian: 30-45 minutes

• Half legs: 20-30 minutes

• Full legs: 45-60 minutes

• Back or chest: 30-45 minutes

• Full body: 90-120 minutes

Does Waxing Hurt?

Waxing involves some discomfort - we won't sugarcoat it. However, our experienced team uses techniques that minimize pain, and most clients find it much more tolerable than expected. The discomfort is brief, and results last for weeks. Many clients say it gets easier with each visit as hair grows back finer.

Tips to minimize discomfort:

• Schedule appointments mid-cycle (avoid right before your period when skin is more sensitive)

• Take an over-the-counter pain reliever 30 minutes before your appointment

• Avoid caffeine before waxing

• Breathe deeply during treatment

• Trust our experienced team

Preparing for Your Waxing Appointment

To ensure the best results and most comfortable experience:

Before your appointment:

• Hair length: Hair should be at least 1/4 inch long (about 2-3 weeks of growth after shaving)

• Exfoliate gently 24-48 hours before to remove dead skin cells

• Avoid sun exposure and tanning for 24 hours prior

• Skip retinol products on the area for 3-5 days before

• Avoid caffeine on the day of your appointment (increases sensitivity)

• Wear comfortable, loose clothing (especially for bikini/Brazilian waxing)

• Shower before your appointment and arrive with clean skin

What NOT to do before waxing:

• Don't shave right before (hair needs to be long enough)

• Don't apply lotions or oils on the day of waxing

• Don't schedule waxing right before your menstrual cycle (skin is more sensitive)

• Don't get waxed if you're sunburned or have irritated skin

Aftercare for Smooth, Beautiful Results

Proper aftercare ensures your waxed skin stays smooth, comfortable, and free from ingrown hairs.

Immediately after (first 24-48 hours):

• Avoid hot baths, showers, saunas, or steam rooms

• Skip intense workouts that cause sweating

• Avoid sun exposure and tanning

• Don't apply perfumed products or deodorant (for underarm waxing)

• Wear loose, breathable clothing

• Avoid touching the waxed area with unwashed hands

Ongoing care:

• Exfoliate regularly (starting 48 hours post-wax) to prevent ingrown hairs

• Moisturize daily to keep skin soft and healthy

• Wear SPF if the waxed area will be exposed to sun

• Avoid tight clothing that causes friction

• Don't pick or scratch at any irritation

When to schedule your next appointment:

• Most areas: every 4-6 weeks

• Facial waxing: every 3-4 weeks

• For best results, maintain a regular waxing schedule

Frequently Asked Questions About Body Waxing in Langley

How long does hair need to be for waxing?

Hair should be at least 1/4 inch long - about the length of a grain of rice. This typically means 2-3 weeks of growth after shaving. If hair is too short, wax can't grip it effectively.

Will waxing cause ingrown hairs?

Waxing actually causes fewer ingrown hairs than shaving when proper aftercare is followed. Regular exfoliation and moisturizing prevent most ingrown hairs.

Can I get waxed during my period?

Yes, though we recommend scheduling around your cycle if possible, as skin is more sensitive during menstruation. If you do book during your period (for bikini/Brazilian waxing), please wear a fresh tampon or menstrual cup.

Is waxing safe for sensitive skin?

Yes! We use gentle, professional-grade wax suitable for sensitive skin. Inform your esthetician about any sensitivities, and we'll customize your treatment.

How often should I get waxed?

Most areas should be waxed every 4-6 weeks. Facial waxing may need more frequent maintenance (every 3-4 weeks). Consistency is key for best results.

Can men get waxed?

Absolutely! We serve many male clients for back, chest, shoulder, arm, leg, and other body waxing services. All genders are welcome.

Will waxing make hair grow back thicker?

No! This is a myth. Waxing actually causes hair to grow back finer and softer over time. With regular waxing, you may even experience permanent hair reduction.

Can I get waxed if I'm pregnant?

Yes, waxing is safe during pregnancy. However, skin may be more sensitive due to hormonal changes. Inform your esthetician that you're pregnant.

What if I have a special event coming up?

Schedule your waxing appointment 2-3 days before your event. This allows any minor redness to subside while ensuring you're perfectly smooth for your special day.
