StudioUrbanWax | Smooth and Sexy Tips From The Pros

Eyebrow and Eyelash Tinting

There is nothing better in this world than to make someone’s life easier. Studio Urban Wax strives to do this daily. With our waxing, skin care, and tinting, we make our clients’ lives easier to manage and give them less to maintain. One of our fantastic services, that does just this, is eyelash and eyebrow tinting.     

The subtle tint, ranging from light brown to deep black, can be applied to top and bottom lashes to match your hair, or a bit darker, and look natural. An all natural, vegetable-based dye, it is completely safe. The purpose is to make the eyes pop. And it really works. By highlighting the eyes, it will make your face a touch more dramatic, you will look stunning, and yet no one will quite be able to put their finger on just why…     

"I got my eyelashes and brows tinted at Studio Urban Wax and I am so very impressed with the result! I wake up each morning and my eyes look gorgeous with their black lashes. My brows are normally on the thin and light side, so having them tinted was the best thing I did. Now even when I am working out or swimming, I feel and look great! My face just looks more put together, and yet still completely natural. I just wish I would’ve learned about the service sooner I really thought it might fade or rinse off in the shower, but here I am 2 weeks later and my lashes are still brilliantly black! And I love that they are black all the way to the base, there is no line where the dye starts like there is with mascara." – client, March 2010     

Eyebrow and eyelash tinting is not just for women, either. Many men receive this service. Why, you ask? Well, here’s the best explanation… correctly applied and colored tint can enhance the eyes and make a man more handsome and his features more distinct.

I personally knew a boy growing up who naturally looked like he was wearing eyeliner and mascara. His eyes were gorgeous, and we were all drawn to him. He actually let us apply make-up to his face in middle school computers class. I’ll tell you what, he made a gorgeous girl… but I’m getting sidetracked here. The point is, his eyes had a darkness to his lashes that made his eyes stand out, instantly making his features more distinct, noticeable, and thus he was gorgeous.  

At Studio Urban Wax we can tint your lashes and brows to give you that same effect, and it will last for a month or more. (Your only other real option is mascara and eyeliner…and you’ll really have some explaining to do when you refuse to get the car for your date because it is raining and you’re afraid your mascara will smudge…)

   

Men and women alike enjoy our tinting service. As one client put it, ‘Tinting is the best thing that’s happened to me since drive through Starbucks’.

Experience of a First Time Bikini Waxer

A client came into Studio Urban Wax  to receive a French Bikini Wax on Thursday and was kind enough to share her experience. Out of our 3 usual bikini waxes, French Bikini, Playboy Bikini, and Brazilian Bikini, the French Bikini removes the least hair.

She decided to start with this one because, as she said, she was 'just a touch nervous.' She had taken 2 ibuprofen as a precaution, as she really didn't know what to expect. I'll tell you now, so you don't have to scan to the bottom, in her words it 'really didn't hurt that much. It was actually quite relaxing!'

She is a stay at home mom so rarely gets the time to lay back and be pampered, and considered waxing relaxing and refreshing! She swears she was only on ibuprofen… uh, hmmm. Just kidding! 

No really, she said she ‘enjoyed going to the salon and taking care of her body, and making it easier for herself in the mornings, too!’

When asked what she thought of the studio she exclaimed it was ‘gorgeous and relaxing. The rooms were clean, the bed comfortable, and everything we just wonderful, and I loved plugging my ipod into the room.’

The waxing took about 20 minutes and she said that ‘Rebekah explained the process in such great detail I never felt unsure about what was going on, and she was incredibly knowledgeable about waxing, and all skin care and beauty care.

"I am a bit of a nervous nelly and some would even call me a chicken. Waxing for me had maybe a total of 1 minute of discomfort, and that is probably on the generous side.' After her appointment she went home with a bottle of Tend Skin and directions to use it to ward off ingrown hairs and to exfoliate and enjoy!"

A week after her wax she said she was still ‘smooth, and a complete waxing convert.’ She used to shave and has proclaimed she ‘will never go back, and is considering waxing her legs.’ As you continue waxing you will feel less discomfort because the follicles will continue to be damaged and hair will be weaker sparser.

If you are an inexperienced waxer, come in and let us gently ease you into waxing. You won’t regret it!
