Is Waxing Painful? Here's the Truth from Our Mount Greenwood Team
"Let's be honest—waxing involves some discomfort, but it's typically much less than people expect. The anticipation is often worse than the actual experience. Most clients describe it as a quick sting that's over in seconds." - Stephanie Guenther, RN
Pain Management Tips from Our Experts:
  • Take an over-the-counter pain reliever 30 minutes before
  • Avoid caffeine on treatment day
  • Schedule after your menstrual cycle when skin is less sensitive
  • Regular waxing reduces discomfort as hair becomes finer
