Working Your Way up to a Brazilian Wax

2013-12-30T00:00:00.000-08:00

Many people are interested in trying a Brazilian wax, but for almost all of these people, the prospect of having someone remove all the hair from their most private area can be more than a little intimidating. If you’re dealing with waxing fears yourself, know that there’s nothing to be afraid of and that you can easily work your way up to this intense wax.

Before you can even think about booking a Brazilian wax appointment, you, of course, have to find a quality salon, one that is very hygienic and that consistently gets good reviews and health scores. At first, focus all your energy on that—finding the right salon—instead of on worrying about what the wax will be like or whether it will hurt.

Once you’ve found a good salon, book a waxing appointment, but, unless you’re feeling extra brave, just book a basic appointment, such as one to remove upper lip hair or leg hair. This appointment can help you to feel more comfortable with the waxing process and to work your way up to the big one—the Brazilian wax. Whether you’re just testing the waters or are ready to take the plunge, contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver for all your most intimate waxing needs.

Tips for Your Best Airbrush Tan Yet!

2013-12-27T00:00:00.000-08:00

Have you recently booked an airbrush tanning appointment? Whether you’re all set to go for your appointment or are simply considering airbrush tanning, there are a few things you’ll want to keep in mind. For starters, know that you can always request a “test tan” from your technician. During a “test tan,” the technician will spray a small, unnoticeable area, such as the inside of your arm, with color, allowing you to make sure that you approve of the color before having it applied to your entire body. Opting for a test tan is always smart, especially when you’re tanning for the first time or trying a new salon.

Also know that, prior to your tanning appointment, it’s a good idea to wax away unwanted hair and to exfoliate the skin to remove dry, dead skin. Waxing and exfoliating will allow for a smoother, more even application of the tanning spray and can give you your most beautiful tan yet. For more tips on how to achieve the perfect airbrush tan, contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

Banish Unwanted Facial Hair

2013-12-24T00:00:00.000-08:00

These days, there are many different options for getting rid of unwanted facial hair. One of the most effective and trusted methods of banishing facial hair, however, is through facial waxing. Unfortunately, though, many people don’t want to spend money at a quality waxing salon and so, instead, turn to cheaper, “do it yourself” options for removing facial hair. While some of these options aren’t so bad, there is no substitute for professional waxing done at an upscale waxing salon, and furthermore, many at-home methods don’t work and/or can irritate the sensitive skin of the face, leading to pain and unsightly blemishes.

Tweezing, shaving, and bleaching are all common “at home” methods of hair removal, and each of these options has major downsides; in some cases, these methods can even make facial hair more, instead of less, noticeable. When you choose to wax regularly, however, unwanted hair is guaranteed to grow finer and less noticeable over time, meaning you won’t have to wax nearly as often. Plus, many waxing salons, such as Studio Urban Wax in Denver, are a lot more affordable than you might think!

Removing Upper Lip Hair

2013-12-21T00:00:00.000-08:00

Many women have hair on their upper lips, and, for most of these women, that hair is unwanted and unwelcome. If you are suffering from dark, noticeable upper lip hair, know that, fortunately, there are many methods available for getting rid of that hair. One of the oldest and most common methods, for example, is to bleach the hair to a lighter color, which doesn’t actually get rid of the hair but does make it less noticeable. Bleaching, however, is very temporary, meaning you’ll have to do it again and again if you rely on this method, and it can irritate the sensitive skin on the face.

Another choice for getting rid of unwanted upper lip hair is to simply wax it off, and while waxing does work well, it, like bleaching, is very temporary. A more permanent way to get rid of upper lip hair is through laser hair removal, which is relatively quick and painless and produces very long-lasting and sometimes even permanent results. To see if you’re a good candidate for laser hair removal, contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

Beauty Treatments for Men?

2013-12-18T00:00:00.000-08:00

When you think about people getting beauty treatments, chances are that the people you think of are women. The truth is, however, that, these days, more and more men are pursuing beauty treatments in an effort to look their very best. After all, everyone wants (and deserves!) to look and feel attractive. While there are many beauty treatments that come highly recommended for men, one of the best is waxing. Waxing for men has been popular for quite some time, and men can get waxing done anywhere where they have unwanted hair; common areas include the back, the chest, the arms, and even the hands and the back of the neck.

Aside from waxing, men these days are also getting manicures and pedicures to clean, shape, and refine their nails. Botox is even growing more popular among men, as are laser treatments to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. To learn about the latest beauty treatments for men and perhaps even book a beautifying appointment for yourself, contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

Go Stylish with Your Bikini Wax

2013-12-15T00:00:00.000-08:00

When the average person goes to get a bikini wax, he or she usually just has the pubic hair trimmed and tidied up a bit. Did you know, however, that you’re not relegated to the standard, boring bikini wax? No, believe it or not, you can actually create designs and styles for your pubic hair, making the process less about hair removal and more about beautifying!

So, what kind of styles do people go for? While you can really do just about anything you want, one of the more common waxing options is to have the remaining pubic hair formed into a personalized shape, often done with a stencil. Some commonly chosen shapes include Playboy bunnies, lightning bolts, hearts, and even flowers.

Aside from stenciling shapes into the pubic hair, there’s a new trend known as “vajazzling,” in which tiny crystals and jewels are applied to the vagina to create a glamorous, sparkly look. There are even options for changing the color of your hair down there, whether you want a sexy color or you just want your pubic hair to match the hair on top of your head.

As you can see, hair removal isn’t as bland as it used to be; these days, the pubic area is just another place to let your personal style shine through. To learn about the many unique ways in which you can personalize your bikini wax and/or to set up an appointment for yourself, contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

What Laser Services are Available at Denver Spas?

2013-12-12T00:00:00.000-08:00

In the past, most spas strictly performed run-of-the-mill beauty and relaxation treatments, such as facials and massages. These days, though, there are many salons that offer these standard treatments, as well as a variety of more intensive services, including various laser services. While every spa is different, most high quality spas in the Denver area offer laser services including but not limited to laser hair removal, laser treatments for varicose veins, and laser treatments for toe fungus.

As you might imagine, laser hair removal is one of the most commonly sought after laser services; lasers can be used to remove unwanted hair from virtually anywhere on the body, and the results are much longer-lasting than those achieved through shaving and other common hair removal methods.

Laser treatments are also very effective at reducing the appearance and pain associated with unsightly varicose veins and at clearing up toe fungus that can cause yellowing of the toenails and brittle, painful nails. If you’re interested in a laser service in the Denver area, then you’ll definitely want to contact Studio Urban Wax, which offers all of these laser procedures and then some.

Are You a Good Candidate for a Cosmetic Laser Procedure?

2013-12-09T00:00:00.000-08:00

These days, lasers are being used for all kinds of cosmetic procedures; you can get anything from laser resurfacing to laser toe fungus removal at a laser medical spa! It’s important to note, however, that laser procedures are not for everyone. While most people can greatly benefit from various laser procedures, know that any good laser medical spa will carefully evaluate all candidates to make sure the desired laser procedure is safe for them and will accomplish the results they desire.

Some features that can make laser cosmetic procedures more risky for patients include having very sensitive skin, being very dark-skinned, and not being able to rest and recuperate properly after a procedure. Of course, that’s not to say that a person who meets one or more of these criteria can’t have laser treatments done; only a qualified medical professional can decide that, and most medical professionals can find ways to work around any challenge if the person wants the laser procedure badly enough. To ensure you have a good experience with cosmetic laser procedures and that you receive the procedure that’s right for you, choose your practitioner wisely; a great, trustworthy choice is Studio Urban Wax in Denver.

2013-12-06T00:00:00.000-08:00

Everyone has bad hair days, but fortunately, if you know a few simple tips, you don’t have to let them get you down. The number one tip for those days when you’re just not loving your hair is to accentuate the positive. Many people, when they’re feeling bad about their hair, will just throw on frumpy clothes and call the day a dud before it’s even started; the right answer though is to do something simple with your hair, like putting it into a quick ponytail or tying it back with a stylish scarf, and then to take the focus off of your hair by doing something new, different, or eye-catching; a bad hair day is the perfect time to try something different with your makeup; dramatic makeup or even something like a new lip color can make it so that everyone’s too busy checking out your sassy new style.

Remember, too, that bad hair days or any days when you’re not feeling your best are the perfect days to treat yourself. Why not feel more youthful and vivacious with a microdermabrasion procedure or smooth out your look with a good waxing session? Treating yourself and feeling good in your own skin are important, and fortunately, Studio Urban Wax of Denver is always there to help you feel (and look!) your very best.

Get Beautiful Quick!

2013-12-03T00:00:00.000-08:00

Are you one of those people who always seems to be in a rush in the morning? If so, you likely either skip your morning beauty routine (if you even have one!) or are regularly late to work because you’re busy applying makeup and trying to make yourself presentable enough to face the day. If either of these scenarios are familiar to you, rest assured that it is possible to look beautiful and still be on time for work!

Hopefully, you already know that you should be choosing your clothes and accessories the night before; doing so will keep you from having to root around for something to wear in the morning and will give you more time to focus on your face. What you might not know is that, if you do your makeup the right way, you don’t need a ton of time. In fact, all you really have to do is dot concealer over any imperfections you wish to minimize and glide on a light, airy mineral powder. How much or how little you do from there is up to you, but no matter what, you’ll look fresh and alive!

For a more permanent solution that will save you time every morning, you may want to look into eyelash tinting. Eyelash tinting can darken up your eyelashes to match your hair color or to save you from having to apply mascara every day.

You can learn more tips for quick, effortless beauty by contacting the pros at Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

Tanning Tips

2013-11-30T00:00:00.000-08:00

Are you ready to try airbrush tanning? Whether you’ve got a big event coming up and want to look your best or whether you’re about to hit the beach, airbrush tanning can give you the healthy, radiant glow you crave. Before you book your tanning session, however, know that there are a few tips and tricks that, if followed, can ensure you get your most gorgeous tan possible.

For starters, make sure that you do not use any bar soap on the day of your tanning appointment. Bar soap leaves a filmy residue behind on the skin and can make it impossible for the tanning spray to coat your skin evenly. You should also avoid oily products, which can stop the tanning spray from absorbing into your skin, as well as any moisturizers.

If you follow these tips and go to a professional tanning salon, such as Studio Urban Wax of Denver, you should have a great experience and a great tan to boot!

You’re Growing Hair Where?

2013-11-27T00:00:00.000-08:00

More often than not, when people have unwanted hair on their bodies, they feel embarrassed about the hair. They assume they are the only people to have a problem with hair growth in that particular area and are thus embarrassed and ashamed. Some people are so embarrassed and ashamed that they won’t even visit a local waxing salon for easy hair removal, while others visit waxing salons but whisper and apologize throughout their entire sessions. If either of these types of people sounds like you, relax! No matter where your unwanted hair may be, you can rest assured that waxing technicians have seen hair there before, that they have seen hair growth that’s worse than yours, and that you can leave the waxing salon looking beautiful!

Laser hair removal is available for just about any area of the body, including the face, the chest, the back, the underarms, the private areas, the legs, the arms, and more. If you could benefit from laser hair removal, stop being embarrassed and contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

Why Am I Growing Facial Hair?

2013-11-24T00:00:00.000-08:00

Many women are incredibly upset to find that they are growing facial hair. While facial hair is a problem that some women have had to contend with since puberty, other women have never had to worry about facial hair only to wake up one day with some serious stubble! If this sounds like you, don’t panic; what you are experiencing may be perfectly normal. In fact, as a woman ages and her hormones change, an increase in facial hair or the sudden growth of facial hair is to be expected. Fortunately, facial waxing can easily take care of the hair and improve appearance.

Women should be concerned, however, if they experience other symptoms or problems along with the facial hair growth, such as a deepening of the voice or sensitivity and redness in the area of the hair growth. When accompanied by strange symptoms, facial hair growth should be discussed with a doctor, not a facial waxing professional.

When the problem is simply cosmetic in nature, however, women can book a beautifying appointment at Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

How Men Can Look Their Best

2013-11-21T00:00:00.000-08:00

The internet, fashion magazines, books, and more are all loaded with great beauty and grooming tips. Unfortunately, however, most of these tips are geared toward women. Men deserve to look their best too, though, and fortunately for them, doing so is fairly simple. Men typically require a lot less grooming than women, and a little effort can go a long way.

One simple thing all men can do to improve their appearance is to trim any visible nose hairs; hairs hanging out of the nose are definitely not attractive! Men are also encouraged to keep their eyebrows neat and trim; they don’t have to be overly arched or feminine but should look neatly groomed. Many salons offer waxing for men and can easily provide perfect, masculine eyebrows.

In fact, waxing for men can take care of a host of problems, from unattractive uni-brows to hideously hairy backs. Men who want to look their best are encouraged to schedule an appointment at Studio Urban Wax of Denver, a high-class waxing salon.

What Can Lasers Do for You?

2013-11-18T00:00:00.000-08:00

If you’re someone who’s “in the know” about beauty treatments, you probably already know that there are a wide variety of laser services available, but, do you know what these laser services can do for you? Lasers can be used in a wide range of different treatments and can treat a host of cosmetic problems.

One of the major problems that laser treatments can help is static wrinkles. These are the wrinkles that are there constantly—that don’t change or disappear with facial movements. Laser treatments can reduce the appearance of or even completely get rid of these wrinkles, depending on their severity. There are also laser treatments for folds in the skin, known as dynamic wrinkles; for unwanted freckles and age spots; for scars; for overly visible blood vessels; and for skin that hangs or has otherwise lost its luster.

To experience the power of lasers and to find out what they can do to improve your appearance, contact Studio Urban Wax, your Denver laser medical spa.

Getting Ready for an Intimate Encounter

2013-11-15T00:00:00.000-08:00

So, you’ve got a new special someone in your life and you’re finally ready to take the plunge and become intimate with him or her! Being with a new partner for the first time can be exciting, exhilarating, and also a little intimidating. Many people worry about what their partners will think of their bodies and about whether or not they will “click” with their partners in bed. Really, though, those aren’t the things you need to stress about. Instead, you should be planning birth control and protection and asking your partner tough questions about whether or not he or she has been tested.

Once all that stuff is out of the way, then you can focus on looking your very best so you can feel more confident and enjoy your special moment. A great thing to do before getting intimate with your partner is to get a bikini wax or a Brazilian wax. A bikini wax will only take some hair away from your private place, while a Brazilian will take away everything. You can discuss the two waxes and which one is best for you with the friendly technician who will service you at Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

The Causes of Female Facial Hair

2013-11-12T00:00:00.000-08:00

Are you a woman? If so, are you experiencing growth of unwanted facial hair? If you are, you may feel ashamed, embarrassed, and even repulsed by the facial hair, and, if you’re like most women who suffer from this problem, you probably go to great lengths to get rid of the hair. While you should certainly continue to wax if doing so makes you feel better about yourself and your appearance, it’s important for you to understand that facial hair growth in women is often caused by potentially serious underlying conditions. Waxing may get rid of the hair, but it can’t tell you why you’re growing it! Only a doctor can do that.

Did you know, for example, that many women grow facial hair as a result of a dangerous hormone imbalance, one that could lead to heart disease, conception problems, and diabetes? If you have suddenly starting growing facial hair or have noticed an increase in facial hair, continue your waxing sessions at Studio Urban Wax of Denver but also consider booking an appointment with your doctor.

Looking Lackluster?

2013-11-09T00:00:00.000-08:00

There are some people who complain about fine lines and wrinkles on their faces. Others may have age spots, acne scars, or other flaws that hinder their self confidence and keep them from feeling their best. Luckily for these people, there are a variety of beautifying treatments that can treat their problems. What should you do, however, if you don’t have a specific problem, but instead just have skin that looks dull, lifeless, and generally lackluster? Well, for starters, you’ll want to make sure that you’re eating a healthy diet and drinking plenty of water. Too much alcohol consumption, smoking, and a generally unhealthy diet and lifestyle can all lead to skin that’s dull and unattractive.

If you’ve done all these things, however, and your skin still doesn’t look the way you want, you may want to consider microdermabrasion. Microdermabrasion utilizes tiny crystals to get rid of old, dead layers of skin and reveal the healthy, beautiful, radiant skin underneath. You can have this procedure done at Studio Urban Wax of Denver, and you’re guaranteed to leave looking like a whole new woman (or man!).

Bring Out Your Natural Beauty

2013-11-06T00:00:00.000-08:00

Every woman is beautiful in her own way, but no matter how beautiful you may be, a little makeup never hurts! Makeup, when applied properly, can help to enhance your natural beauty so that you look like the most attractive version of yourself possible.

The most important thing when it comes to makeup is to choose quality makeup that is designed for your skin tone and type. Wearing the wrong makeup or wearing cheap, low quality makeup can not only affect your appearance negatively, but doing so can also be damaging to your skin.

All women should wear a little lip gloss or lipstick, blush, eye liner, and eye shadow. All of these types of makeup can be worn together even for casual events, and the amount of makeup worn and the intensity of the makeup can then be increased as the occasion warrants. Women with very light eyelashes can also benefit from eyelash tinting to frame and highlight their eyes.

These are just a few basic makeup tips, but they can go a long way! For more ideas on how to be your most beautiful you yet, contact Studio Urban Wax of Denver.

Nix Nail Fungus

2013-11-03T00:00:00.000-07:00

Toe fungus isn’t pretty, and it isn’t something people like to talk about, but if you’re suffering from it, it’s important to get help. Toe fungus will only get worse with time if left untreated. Plus, there’s no reason to suffer and be embarrassed, not when laser toe fungus removal procedures are so readily available.

Only a professional can diagnose whether or not you’ve actually got a case of toe fungus, but the signs tend to be fairly obvious. Infected toenails may appear thick or brittle and are often distorted in shape. They can take on a dulled, lusterless color or a dark color, depending on the severity of the condition, and the fungus will often cause the toenails to crumble.

If you’ve got toenail fungus, don’t be embarrassed; many people suffer from this problem, and it’s not your fault. Instead, simply seek out laser toe fungus removal services. In Denver, you can turn to Studio Urban Wax to get the job done.

Tips for Looking Younger

2013-10-31T00:00:00.000-07:00

Would you like to look younger? Who wouldn’t, right? If you’re trying to stave away the years, the first rule of thumb is to eat well, get plenty of exercise, and avoid excess tanning. In short, take care of yourself; how you treat yourself will eventually show on your face and body, so you’ll want to be as gentle and kind to yourself as you possibly can be!

Another very important thing you can do is to have a good skin care routine. You should be washing your face daily with an exfoliating scrub, and you should definitely be moisturizing each and every day. Regular facials and other skin treatments can take fill in the gaps where your at-home skin care routine is lacking.

If your varicose veins bother you, learn about your vein treatment choices to diminish the appearance of varicose veins. In Denver, you can have many of these vein services performed at the same place where you get your facials: Studio Urban Wax. #VeinTreatmentDenver

If you’ve got unsightly varicose veins, know that they can really put the years on you. Fortunately, they are fairly easy to get rid of these days via one of the

Nap Know-How

2013-10-28T00:00:00.000-07:00

Are you feeling tired? If so, then feeling better and more alert may be as simple as taking a quick power nap! Researchers have recently determined that a quick, effective ten to twenty minute nap can reload a person’s energy and enable him or her to get back to work without a problem. Of course, a small burst of sleep isn’t going to have the exact same effects as a longer amount.

Researchers found that those who were too tired to function at maximum capacity may have recovered energy after a twenty minute snooze, but didn’t really improve in terms of memory, cognitive processing, or overall mental speed. To improve in those areas, a nap of at least an hour was needed, researchers found.

The good news is that napping can happen anywhere—at your desk or, preferably, in your nice, comfortable bed. You can even nap outside; just make sure you’re out of direct sunlight and, even then, that you wear sun block. Otherwise you could find yourself worrying about sun spot removal and skin cancer, and having to deal with the threat of cancer and sun spot removal is a whole lot worse than simply feeling tired! #SunSpotRemovalDenver

Being a Better, More Beautiful You!

2013-10-25T00:00:00.000-07:00

The average American wants two things: to look his or her very best, and to be healthy. Fortunately, there are a few things out there that can help Americans to achieve both these goals; exercise is one of them, and then certain, key “superfoods” are the other. And, the good news is that, when diet and exercise aren’t enough to give a person his or her desired look, there are safe, medical treatments available these days, such as laser resurfacing.

Laser resurfacing, which can remove fine lines and wrinkles, is a great option for looking younger and healthier. What’s more is that, by eating some of the known “super foods” you can increase the results of your resurfacing session and continue to look your best for years to come.

So, what are some foods that top the list? Well, beans, broccoli, blueberries, pumpkin, yogurt, and walnut are definitely good choices, and there are many others too. Start reading up on healthy food, changing your diet, and visiting Studio Urban Wax in Denver; you’ll look like a new, improved you in no time at all! #LaserResurfacingDenver

Out with the Old, In with the New

2013-10-22T00:00:00.000-07:00

Fall is fast approaching, and with the season comes a sense of newness, of hope, and of fresh beginnings. If you’re ready to ditch some of the “old” this fall season, why not start by cleaning out clutter in your home or apartment, especially in your closet? Clutter experts recommend a good de-cluttering session at least once per year, one in which you toss items you don’t need or use to make way for fabulous new ones. If parting with belongings is difficult for you, simply divide “clutter” items into three piles: one of items to keep, one of items to trash, and one of items to sell and/or give away. With this method, you’ll be done de-cluttering in no time!

And, once you’ve done away with those old items you no longer need or want, why not take a new step in your skin care regimen? Believe it or not, skin care should change with the seasons too, and the dryer, colder fall air provides the perfect reason to get a good protective, moisturizing facial. You can book your facial—perhaps even as a post-cleaning reward—at Studio Urban Wax in Denver at anytime! #DenverFacial #DenverSkinCare

Tips for a Gorgeous You!

2013-10-18T00:00:00.000-07:00

Do you want to look as gorgeous as you possibly can? Of course you do, and a gorgeous you means luscious, shining tresses and a youthful, vibrant, wrinkle-free face. The “luscious” hair part of the equation is easy; the trick to having healthy, beautiful hair is all in how you wash your tresses! You should always, for example, thoroughly massage your scalp when you shampoo. This will send the blood flowing right to those hair follicles and will stimulate the hair to grow while washing away dead, dry scalp flakes in the process. Keep in mind, as you wash, that hair is especially fragile when wet so you’ll want to handle it with care to avoid split ends, frizz, and other unsightly problems.

Once you’ve got lovely, shining hair, it’s time to take your face to the next level too.dry skin, and getting rid of that skin and revealing the beautiful you underneath is easy with a chemical peel. Just remember that you may have some temporary redness after your chemical peel, so you probably won’t want to plan it right before a big event.

You can bring out the radiance in your face by getting rid of old, dead,
