Smooth Skin Starts Here: Summer Waxing Tips from Nashville’s Favorite Day Spa
Smooth, Radiant, & Ritual-Ready: Your Summer Waxing Guide From Urban Oasis Nashville
As the sun warms the days and the layers come off, it’s time to embrace one of summer’s simplest luxuries: smooth, radiant skin. At Urban Oasis Nashville, we believe that beauty rituals should feel sacred—rooted in care, not rush. That includes our wax services.
Here’s how to prepare your skin and spirit for a smooth summer, and why now is the perfect time to start your waxing ritual.
Before Your Appointment: Prepare with Intention
Smooth skin starts before the wax ever touches your skin. Here’s how to set the stage:
- Mind the Length Hair should be between 1/8 inch and 1/4 inch—about the length of a grain of rice. Too short, and the wax can’t grip; too long, and the experience can be more uncomfortable.
- Gently Exfoliate Use a mild, physical exfoliant (not a chemical peel or aggressive scrub) the day before your appointment. This helps release trapped hairs and prepares the skin. Think of it as polishing your skin’s surface for a cleaner wax.
- Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate Dry skin can make this service more painful. Keep the skin moisturized in the days leading up to your visit—but avoid lotions or oils on the day of your wax. Hydrated skin allows the wax to lift hair easily, not your skin.
- No Tanning Avoid tanning—natural or sunless—for at least a week before your appointment. Sun-exposed or freshly tanned skin is more sensitive and prone to irritation.
Aftercare: Protect the Glow
The ritual doesn’t stop when you leave the spa. Your aftercare is just as sacred as the service itself.
- Polish with Intention A few days post-wax, begin gently exfoliating with Zandiland Deck Scrub—a client favorite that helps lift dead skin, unclog follicles, and prevent ingrown hairs. Its natural exfoliants keep your skin clear, soft, and radiant.
- Nourish the Skin Barrier Follow up with Zandiland Deck Polish, a soothing, hydrating formula that softens regrowth, calms post-wax sensitivity, and leaves your skin feeling silky and loved.
✨ Use both products 2–3 times per week as part of your home ritual to extend the results of your wax and keep your skin in a state of glow.
Waxing is a Rhythm, Not a One-Time Thing
Hair grows in three phases, so your first wax may not catch everything. For optimal results:
👉 Schedule your waxes every 4 weeks.
This trains your hair to grow on the same cycle, resulting in finer, sparser regrowth—and longer-lasting smoothness.
