If you’re a new client, you’ll need to book a consultation and patch test before your first wax with me. I know some may wonder why this step is necessary, but let me explain—because I never skip it, and there’s a good reason why. The consultation is much more than just a quick chat. It’s a thorough, personalised session where I take the time to get to know you, your skin, your past hair removal history, and your goals. We’ll go through your medical history, any allergies or contraindications, previous waxing experiences, and the methods you’ve used before. This gives me a clear picture of how best to treat your skin and ensure the safest and most effective results possible. I’ll also walk you through the hair growth cycle, how often to wax, how to prevent and treat ingrown hairs, and how to get the best long-term results. Whether it’s your first time waxing, you’re pregnant, nervous, or have had bad experiences before—this is the time where all your questions are welcomed and answered. I’ll explain why I use ZAKAWAX, the wax brand I trust for its performance and skin-friendly formula, and why we never double dip—something I take very seriously as part of upholding strict hygiene standards. You’ll also receive full aftercare instructions (verbally and in a printed leaflet), and if I believe laser might be a better fit for you in the long run, I’ll be honest about that too. My priority is always what’s best for you. We finish the consultation with a patch test—done at least 48 hours before your wax—for your safety. This is especially important for intimate waxing or if I’ve never waxed you before. Your comfort and wellbeing are at the heart of everything I do, and this extra step ensures your skin won’t react to the products we use. Finally, we go over a declaration together to make sure you understand possible skin responses and feel fully informed. I keep this consultation on record (securely, for up to 7 years) as part of my professional duty and insurance requirements. As an Industry Expert and Educator, I take pride in delivering the highest waxing standards—and that starts with how we begin. Many of my clients have said the consultation gave them the confidence and clarity they needed, especially those who felt unsure or anxious about waxing. This is your time to feel heard, informed, and in safe hands—and I wouldn’t do it any other way. Marta
