Get answers to common questions about Sides.

Most clients notice regrowth in three to six weeks depending on hair growth cycle and individual factors. Regular threading can reduce thickness and slow regrowth. We recommend scheduling maintenance every four to six weeks for consistently smooth sides.

Mild redness or tenderness is normal and usually fades within a few hours. We apply calming products and advise avoiding heat, heavy makeup, or exfoliation for 24 hours to reduce irritation. Contact us if redness persists beyond 48 hours.

Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin. Exfoliate gently a few days before to prevent ingrown hairs, but avoid harsh acids right before your visit. Inform your technician about any skin treatments or sensitivities so we can customize technique and aftercare.

Wait at least a few hours before applying makeup to allow skin to recover and reduce infection risk. For sensitive skin, wait 24 hours and use mineral or non-comedogenic products. Follow our aftercare advice for best healing and results.

Threading is generally safe during pregnancy and hormonal fluctuations, but sensitivity may increase. Inform your technician about your pregnancy or medications. We’ll use gentler pressure, perform a patch assessment if needed, and recommend suitable aftercare to minimize irritation.

Maintenance varies by individual, but most clients return every three to six weeks. Factors like hair growth rate, hormones, and personal preference affect timing. We’ll recommend a customized schedule after your first visit to keep sides neat and evenly shaped.
