So, what is Aftercare and why is it so important? If you have been to an Urban Waxx location,  there’s a solid chance we have asked you about Aftercare. Aftercare is what we recommend you do and don’t do at home in between your waxes to ensure you are ingrown-free and make the most of your wax! ALL hair removal, whether it be waxing, shaving, sugaring or something else, has the potential of causing irritation to the skin.  Red bumps, redness, breakouts, and ingrown hairs are something you may experience and they are perfectly normal (albeit undesirable). However, when you are consist ..read more

Let’s talk about hair growth cycles and why they are important for your wax! If you have been waxed before, you have probably heard your Esthetician talk about how important staying on a consistent waxing routine is. If you are wanting those long-lasting waxing results, then staying on a routine of getting waxed every 4-6 weeks is essential. If you happen to be a seasonal waxer, or someone who only gets waxed before vacation or summer-  then your hair growth cycles will likely never sync and you will be constantly left with results that won’t last as long. If you are new to waxing, it’s i ..read more

We had a tremendous opportunity at Urban Waxx in 2020 to take a very hard look at every part of who we are, what we do, and where we are going.

Most of us are probably not thinking about our skin as we enter into winter, but we cannot overlook the importance of taking care of our biggest organ- our skin! Skin is actually your body’s largest organ by size. Your skin helps keep your body temperature even. If you get too hot, blood vessels near the surface of the skin, called capillaries, enlarge to let the warm blood cool down. Your skin also produces vitamin D when exposed to the sun. Vitamin D is important for the health of your bones and other parts of your body. Since your s ..read more

CBD is the newest buzz word in the world of skin care products. It is in everything from bath soaks to moisturizers to gummies to hair care. But…what is it and why is it so great?

However, unlike the full cannabis plant, CBD does not contain THC which is responsible for the stoned/high feeling that the recreational drug provides. Extracted from the flowers and buds of the hemp plant, CBD is being pressed into oil and is increasi ..read more
