**Color Options:**
– **Light Brown:** Perfect for lighter hair colors, natural look

Kim's expert technique minimizes discomfort. Most clients say it's very manageable and worth the smooth results.
Ingrown hairs can occur but are less common with waxing than shaving. Prevent them by:
- Exfoliating gently 48 hours after waxing
- Moisturizing daily
- Wearing loose clothing after waxing
- Not picking or scratching
- Regular waxing (reduces ingrowns over time)
Yes, for body waxing (legs, arms, underarms). For bikini waxing, you'll need to wear a tampon or menstrual cup. Note: You may be more sensitive during menstruation. Some clients prefer to avoid bikini waxing during this time for comfort.
