The answer depends on a few factors, but for most people, waxing keeps skin smooth for 3 to 6 weeks.
Average Waxing Results by Area
- Facial areas (eyebrows, lip, chin) – 2-4 weeks
- Underarms – 2-4 weeks
- Bikini or Brazilian – 3-5 weeks
- Legs – 4-6 weeks
- Back or chest – 4-6 weeks
Factors That Affect Hair Regrowth
- Hair Growth Cycle – Everyone’s hair grows in stages. Waxing removes hair from the root, but only hairs in the active growth stage are affected so that new growth can appear at different times.
- Frequency of Waxing – Consistent waxing can lead to finer, sparser regrowth, helping results last longer over time.
- Hair Thickness – Thicker, coarser hair may start to appear sooner than finer hair.
- Hormonal Changes – Hormonal shifts (such as pregnancy, menopause, or stress) can speed up hair growth.
Tips to Extend Waxing Results
- Exfoliate gently 2-3 times per week to prevent ingrown hairs and keep skin healthy.
- Avoid shaving between appointments, as it disrupts the hair growth cycle.
- Stick to a regular waxing schedule to train hair to grow back more evenly.
- Moisturize daily to keep skin soft and supple.
*With consistent care and a regular waxing routine, you can enjoy smooth skin for longer stretches and reduce overall hair growth over time.
