I have done the Zena Peel 6 times . I have been going every second week. I have seen my face become smooth, even toned, scar-free and rejuvenated week-in and week-out. This peel really works and have recommended to my friends who have seen results from just one visit. I would recommend this to anyone who is not allergic. Thank you Natania for the excellent and superb service. This lady knows her stuff. I will definitely do this again and again.

My time with Valerie is short, I am becoming so use to the waxing that I find it hard to believe that our session is over so quickly! Multi tasking is what she is good at because not only does she speak to you, but also makes you so comfortable that you even forget that I am even there to be waxed. Job Well done - ALWAYS! tnx Val ❤

Tina is a wax master, close to 20 years of experience. I was very comfortable with Tina and waxing. Tina also is extremely friendly, social, I felt very welcomed and able to say what I wanted with my nails. I would recommend Laharve if you want excellent service with a smile.

Gloria is amazing at waxing. Recommended some great products and have clear directions on how to use them. Seems to be working so far. The way she also looks is excellent by the way - her make up is not too much but just enough to make you go wow, you can see she takes her personal brand very seriously. Great experience overall

Face Waxing FAQs
Face waxing is a hair removal technique that sees hot or cold wax applied to areas of unwanted hair on your face. The wax is then quickly stripped off in the opposite direction to hair growth, pulling the hair out from the root in the process.
No. If you have dry or sensitive skin you should avoid face waxing because it could make your symptoms worse. Other side effects you may experience – whatever your skin type – are pain, redness, and irritation. You may also experience a rash, ingrown hairs, temporary bumps, bleeding, infection, scarring, allergies, and sensitivity to the sun.
Roughly 3-4 weeks; after that new hairs will start to grow.
You can get waxing for a number of areas on your face including your eyebrows, mouth, ears, chin, nose, cheeks, and even your sideburn area.
In the days leading up to your appointment, stop any hair removal you’re doing in the area you intend on having waxed because your hair needs to be long enough (between a quarter to half an inch in length) for the wax to grip and remove it. You should also avoid acidic products and skin peels, and take care to moisturise and stay hydrated. If you have cuts or blemishes in the area you want waxed, you’re best off waiting for them to heal before you go ahead with your appointment. On the day of your face waxing appointment, cleanse your face as normal, but avoid applying any creams or makeup, and steer clear of anything that could heighten your skin’s sensitivity, like exposure to the sun and sun beds.
Your face waxing technician will prepare the wax for your treatment – they’re likely to use either hard or soft wax. Once it’s ready, they’ll apply it to the area(s) on your face you want treated, then swiftly remove it in the opposite direction of your hair’s growth, plucking the hair out from the roots.
