The James Island center is at 1739 Maybank Highway and is open Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 8:30pm, Saturdays from 8:00am to 6:00pm, and Sundays from 10:00am to 6:00pm. The business welcomes guests of any gender and says its waxing suits all skin types and hair textures. The chain's other area centers are in Mount Pleasant, North Charleston (Cedar Grove), Summerville and Bluffton.
A first visit begins with a conversation with a wax specialist about waxing and skincare goals, followed by a walkthrough of the business's four-step process. Services can be adjusted to each guest's comfort and preference, and several body areas can be booked in one appointment. Most appointments take 10 to 45 minutes, while full-body visits can run 45 minutes to an hour, and waxing takes place in private suites. The business describes itself as experts in wax and says it is committed to safety and hygiene.
The business uses its proprietary Comfort Wax across body and facial services, which it says is formulated for all skin types and for delicate facial skin. Bikini Line removes hair along the sides and top of the bikini area, Bikini Full takes more from the front with coverage that can be customized, and a Brazilian removes nearly all hair from front to back with a butt strip option. Brazilian waxing is done without cloth strips, after a pre-wax oil is applied. Men's services include a men's Brazilian and back waxing.
Eyebrow shaping is offered in round, soft angled, sharp angled, flat and S-shaped styles. Brow tinting is a semi-permanent option available in five shades, and the business describes its formula as ophthalmologist-tested and says the tint lasts up to three weeks. Single-service prices at James Island range from $12 for a lower lip to $89 for the Bikini Brazilian (P) option, and prices exclude sales tax where applicable and may vary by location. Wax Passes are memberships that give discounted per-visit prices, which the business says are 25% below single-service prices, though actual savings vary by service. Pre-paid passes do not expire, unlimited one-year passes cover several bikini, eyebrow, full-face and underarm services, and first-time unlimited buyers receive 13 months. Passes are non-transferable and tied to the individual member.
Before a wax, guests are advised to let hair grow to about a quarter-inch, and first-time guests should stop shaving at least two weeks before their visit. Guests should also avoid tanning, alcohol and large amounts of caffeine beforehand, tell the specialist about any medications, and exfoliate body areas 24 to 48 hours ahead while avoiding lotions, oils or creams on the day. Afterward, the business suggests skipping hot showers, saunas, swimming and strenuous exercise for 24 hours, avoiding exfoliation for 48 hours, and using a fragrance-free lotion. The business recommends getting waxed every three to four weeks for consistent results.
The business says its wax specialists are certified, and a first visit opens with a conversation about waxing and skincare goals before a walkthrough of its four-step process.
Services take place in private waxing suites, and the business describes the experience as judgment-free and relaxing.
