With so many different hair removal options on the market, you might be wondering which one is right for you. While shaving is perhaps the most convenient option, waxing does more than hair removal. It gives you a host of other benefits that are affordable and safe.

Keep reading to discover how long a wax lasts, how to make waxing last longer, and when to book your next wax appointment.

How Long Does Waxing Generally Last?

So how long does waxing last? Well, it depends on many factors — some of which are thankfully in your control. Most experts say you can expect to see new hair growth around 3 to 4 weeks after waxing.

But like most things in life, the right answer is largely personal. According to our Fuzzologists, your hair growth rate is dependent on many factors, including your genetics, hair texture, and how long you’ve been waxing for.

Unlike shaving, waxing is known to reduce hair growth, causing it to grow back thinner and softer overtime. It’s a long-lasting beauty treatment that takes commitment to a regular wax routine. How you prep for your wax and your self-care after a wax can also affect results.

Keep reading to learn how to make a wax last longer.

Does It Depend On The Area Being Waxed?

When our clients ask “How long does a wax last?” we’re inclined to give the most accurate answer. It really depends on where you get waxed. Your hair grows at different rates all over the body. The texture, length, and amount of hair can vary by area.

Hormones are a major factor in our hair growth cycle, meaning, it really depends on the person.

If you’re looking for precise numbers, look no further. Here are the approximate hair growth timeframes for each body part:

Armpits

Your underarm wax will typically last around 3 weeks. Keep in mind that this is dependent on your personal hair growth cycle.

Below The Belt

“How long do Brazilian (Zillian ™) waxes last?” is a popular question we get asked — for obvious reasons. The standard timeline applies to any below-the-belt wax: 3 to 4 weeks, with new hair growth beginning around 2 weeks.

Face

Whether you’re waxing the brows or sideburns, you’ll be glad to know that all facial hair waxes last around 3 to 4 weeks.

Legs

While leg waxes can take longer to get, they also last longer than any other waxed area. Leg waxes last 4 to 6 weeks, give or take.

What Factors Affect Hair Regrowth?

Since hormones play a huge role in hair growth, your results are going to be different from your friend’s. The more balanced your hormones, the stronger and healthier your hair will grow. Your hair health is also determined by your diet. Experts recommend a diet rich in lean protein like fish, vitamin B6, B12, folic acid, iron, zinc, and biotin. Nothing a multivitamin can’t handle.

Your DNA has a say in hair growth, but so do you.

Can You Extend The Results Of Waxing?

So now that we’ve covered how long a wax typically lasts, it’s time to take back control of your hair, one wax at a time. There are many techniques you can use to extend the results of your wax. Proper pre- and post-wax care is the priority when it comes to getting and maintaining a desirable result.

Our curated collection of pre- and post-wax products are designed just for that. We suggest exfoliating regularly with a body brush or scrub to prevent ingrown hair. Using a gentle moisturizer regularly can also prevent hair breakage which is caused by dry skin.

Our clients often ask us “Does waxing make hair grow slower?”. We’re happy to say that your hair will definitely grow back thinner and softer the more often you wax. That’s why we offer memberships with a regular wax routine that’s already established for you.

It’s important, however, to avoid shaving in-between appointments. We know it may be tempting to remove stubble, but shaving won’t do you any favours. Waxing weakens the hair follicles over time, resulting in reduced hair growth. Shaving can unfortunately undo this process by reinforcing the strength of your hair follicles. Unlike shaving, when you wax, you won’t have to do it again until 3 to 6 weeks later.

In short, stay dedicated to your wax routine and try to avoid shaving between appointments.

When To Start Booking Your Next Waxing Appointment

You might be wondering when to book your next appointment. Our Fuzzologists recommend waiting around 4 to 6 weeks before your next wax. That’s why our Fuzz Faithful and Fanatics enjoy a monthly visit with additional membership perks.

Before you book your next appointment, you’ll want to ensure your hair is long enough to wax. Around ¼ of an inch long is optimal. Anything longer than half an inch you will need to trim beforehand. Your Fuzzologist will do this for you otherwise.

Conclusion: How Long Does Waxing Last?

There’s no one answer to “how long does waxing last?”. It really depends on your unique genetic makeup and wax routine. The average wax can last anywhere from 3 to 4 weeks, depending on your personal hair growth cycle, where you get waxed, and how often.

Luckily, there are steps you can take to prolong your smooth skin. Stay up-to-date with a consistent wax schedule. Invest in a proper pre- and post-wax routine with skin and hair products that can elevate your results.

Most importantly, do what feels right for you! Join the Fuzz Community today for a wax routine that meets your needs long-term.
