what to expect at your first wax, brow or lash appointment at Bare michigan

Booking your first appointment at a new studio can feel exciting—and a little nerve-wracking. Whether you’re coming in for a Brazilian wax, body waxing, lash services, or brows, we want you to feel comfortable, informed, and confident before you ever walk through the door.

At Bare Michigan, client comfort, cleanliness, and professionalism are always our top priorities. Here’s exactly what you can expect at your first appointment.

From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice that Bare Michigan is designed to feel clean, calm, and welcoming—not rushed or intimidating.

Sanitation and hygiene are non-negotiable here. Every service is performed using:

  • Fresh, sanitized tools

  • Medical-grade disinfectants

  • Clean linens and disposable materials where appropriate

  • Strict hand-washing and glove protocols

Our treatment room is fully private, so you can relax knowing your service is performed in a professional and respectful space.


A Quick Consultation Before We Begin

Before your service starts, we’ll take a few minutes to go over:

  • Your service goals

  • Skin sensitivities or medical considerations

  • Previous waxing or lash experience (or lack of experience—totally okay!)

  • Aftercare expectations

If this is your first wax ever, don’t worry—everything will be explained clearly before we begin. No awkward guessing, no pressure, and no judgment.


What the Service Feels Like

Every service is different, but here’s a general idea:

Waxing services:
You may feel quick moments of discomfort, especially if it’s your first time or if hair growth is dense. That said, the process is efficient and done with intention to minimize discomfort as much as possible.

Lash and brow services:
These are typically very relaxing. Many clients describe lash lifts, tints, and brow services as calm, quiet appointments—some even fall asleep.

You’re always welcome to speak up, ask questions, or take a short pause if needed.


Aftercare Is Always Explained

Before you leave, you’ll receive clear aftercare guidance so you know exactly how to care for your skin or lashes post-appointment.

This may include:

  • How long to avoid heat, workouts, or certain products

  • How to reduce irritation

  • Product recommendations if needed (never required)

Proper aftercare helps ensure the best results and keeps your skin healthy between visits.


Your Comfort Matters Here

Bare Michigan is a judgment-free space. Bodies are normal. Nerves are normal. First-time questions are normal.

Our goal is for you to leave feeling:

  • Comfortable

  • Educated

  • Cared for

  • Confident in your results

Whether you’re brand new to waxing or just new to our studio, you’re always welcome here.
