Sunscreen — check. Sunglasses — check. Itsy bitsy bikini — check. Razor? Throw that away. Whether you're jetting off to a tropical beach or escaping Utah's winter for a sunny resort, pre-vacation waxing is the single best thing you can do for your skin before you go. At Wax Me Too , Utah's professional waxing studio since 2007, we've helped thousands of clients step into paradise with smooth, confident skin. Here's everything you need to know.
Timing Is Everything: When to Book Before Your Trip
The golden rule of pre-vacation waxing: book your appointment 2–3 days before you leave. This gives your skin time to settle after the service while ensuring you arrive at your destination completely hair-free. That means up to 2–3 weeks of smooth skin without a single thought about shaving. One important note: your hair needs to be at least ¼ inch long (roughly 10 days of growth after shaving, or 3 to 4 weeks after waxing) for the wax to grip effectively. If you've been shaving regularly, stop at least 10 days before your appointment. If you're a first-time waxer, we strongly recommend not waiting until the day before your vacation to try it out. While most clients experience only mild, temporary redness, a small number may have a skin reaction. Give yourself time to see how your skin responds before your trip.
Questions to Ask Before Choosing a Waxing Salon
Not all waxing salons are created equal. Before booking, here are the key questions to ask: Is there a sink in the treatment room? Your esthetician should wash her hands in front of you before beginning. This is a non-negotiable hygiene standard at Wax Me Too. Do they use gloves? Gloves provide an extra layer of protection and are standard practice at our studios. Do they double-dip? Reusing the same applicator stick in the wax pot is a serious hygiene violation. At Wax Me Too, we use fresh, single-use applicators for every client — always. How experienced are their estheticians? Mastering the Brazilian wax takes real skill and practice. Our team has years of experience and specializes exclusively in waxing.
The Brazilian Wax: Your Best Vacation Investment
For beach and pool vacations, the Brazilian wax is the ultimate pre-trip service. Here's why: Weeks of smooth, confident skin. No worrying about stubble peeking out of your swimsuit. No razor burns. No ingrown hairs from shaving in a hotel bathroom. Long-lasting results. A single Brazilian wax provides 3–6 weeks of smoothness — more than enough to cover your entire trip and then some. Hygienic and comfortable. Waxing removes hair from the root, reducing the risk of irritation and ingrown hairs compared to shaving. Customizable. Whether you prefer a completely bare look or a neatly trimmed style, our estheticians will work to your preferences.
