I owe a huge thanks to Savannah for gently encouraging me to get a spot looked at by my doctor. It was precancerous and my doctor said she was really glad that I came in. Easily frozen off in the office because we caught it early. Savannah made my eyebrows look great too, win win!

I usually see the same person (Brandi) who does amazing work! but the last time I was in I didn’t schedule an appointment and so they gave me soonest available. Which was amazing on the front desk part because I wasn’t expecting to be able to get in so soon. The girl (I think her name was Chelsea) I saw though didn’t seem interested in conversation and she seemed kinda annoyed that I came in and wanted to get the brow wax just over with. I’ve never felt so gross with my eyebrows. They werent even and one was longer so I had her tweeze it to match the shorter one. She did a spot over twice and I now have a chunk of skin missing below my eyebrow. I usually never leave a bad comment or not tip, but wow never rushed so fast out of somewhere.

We called to make appts for brow threading. She said she doesn't do brow threading on males. ?? We have never had this issue before and we go regularly to get our brows done. She was ready to make the appt until I gave her a male's name. I think that's sexist. We will take our business someplace else that doesn't discriminate. It won't let me reply to the response, so I'm editing my review... >>>>>> I appreciate and support your acceptance for all religions and employment. However, a little costumer service goes a long way. The lady on the phone did not explain why, she simply stated that they don't thread male's eyebrows. I said that I would need to cancel my appointment. She said, "ok, thanks bye." Nothing. No explanation as to why they don't offer that service. She didn't tell me that I could schedule at another location. She didn't apologize. Nothing. Had she explained the reasoning, I would have understood. I would not have left a one start review and I would not have felt discriminated against. As stated previously, a little costumer service goes a long way. Thank you for your time as well as your prompt response to my review.

I love this Brow Betty and Shaida(eyebrow threading)! She saved my brows after another brow placed destroyed them. I’ve been coming to her for over a year now and my eyebrows are soo much better!! Would highly recommend!

Questions & Answers

What days do they do threading?

Avery McDowell | Aug 19, 2019
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 19, 2019

Avery - We have threading available with Shaida Wednesday through Saturday at our Progress Ridge location. Let us know if you need any further info! Thanks!

Is it customary to add gratuity to my service?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

The industry standard is 15-20% but the amount you choose to leave is up to your discretion!

Is it ok to shave between wax appointments?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

No. Please do not shave between waxing appointments! Shaving can disrupt the hair growth cycle and irritate follicles which can cause ingrown hair.

What do I do after my wax?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

Try to refrain from exercising, swimming or tight clothing that may irritate the area within the first 24 hours. Do not get any direct sunlight on the freshly waxed area within the first 24 hours. Wait 24-48 hours and then gently exfoliate the area with your exfoliating gloves or loofah. Follow up with an ingrown hair product. Doing this will help restore your skin’s suppleness and weakens hair follicles, inhibiting future growth. This will help banish bumps and ingrown hairs. Continue to exfoliate 1-2 times a week so pores don’t get clogged, creating bumps and ingrown hairs. If redness or swelling occurs, you can apply a 1% hydrocortisone creme to the area up to 3 times a day. If large or deep bumps occur, applying a warm compress can help bring the hair up to the surface quicker.

What if I am taking medications?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

Internal medications such as antibiotics or topical medications (including Accutane, Differin, Retin A, Glycolic Acid, Tazorac, Avage, Strivectin, Renova, ProActive, Benzoyl peroxide) may make skin more sensitive to waxing and lift the skin. Please check with your Doctor if you are unsure whether you should be waxed while on or using medication.

What is the difference between a Full Betty and a Hi-Hollywood wax?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

A Full Betty is our fun term for a Brazilian wax. A Brazilian wax is the removal of ALL hair front to back. A Hi-Hollywood is similar to Full Betty except we leave a tiny strip of hair in the front.

How often should I make an appointment?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

We suggest 3-4 weeks for brow and facial waxing and every 4-6 weeks for body waxing. It will become easier over time as the hair follicle will have less grip and you may experience less hair growth over time.

Will I get ingrown hairs?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

It is possible. Start an exfoliation routine 2 days after waxing (exfoliating gloves are available at Brow Betty) to help prevent ingrown hairs and continue to exfoliate 1-2 times a week after. Please be gentle. Please see our “after you wax” tips for more suggestions on what to expect and how to avoid ingrown hairs.

How long should my hair be for waxing?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

The hair should be at least 1/4 - 1/2 inch for best results. If your hair is too long we recommend shaving and then making your appointment for 2-3 weeks later. The hair grows in stages so it may take up to three waxing treatments to achieve a complete smooth look. Please refrain from shaving in between appointments as this will interrupt the process.

Does it hurt?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

Most women find it tolerable, but yes there may be some discomfort involved.

Can I get waxed on my period?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

Yes. We just suggest avoiding appointments before or during your cycle as we tend to be more sensitive at this time.

How do I prepare for my wax?

Brow Betty | Aug 18, 2020
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 18, 2020

There are a couple things you can do to prepare for your wax: - Hair needs to be at least ¼ to ½ inch long….10-14 day stubble. - Caffeine and alcohol can create acidity in the body, making skin more sensitive so try to abstain prior to service. - Taking an Advil or Motrin ½ hour before the service can sometimes help with pain and inflammation. - A gentle body scrub prior to service will help eliminate dead cells around skin pores and hair follicles, making your waxing service easier. - Don’t use topical numbing gels, they can interfere to get the best waxing results. - Avoid spray tanning, sunbathing and tanning beds within 24 hours of waxing, before or after. - CHILL!!!.... mental preparation is the most important…..if you come in relaxed and ready to go you will have a much more pleasant experience!

What is your cancellation policy?

Brow Betty | Aug 19, 2019
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 19, 2019

If you are unable to keep your appointment we would appreciate a phone call within 24 hours if possible so another guest may get in. If your appointment is 45 minutes or longer we may require a credit card number to hold your appointment. You will not be charged unless you fail to cancel within 24 hours.

Do you have any age restrictions on waxing, tinting, or lifting?

Brow Betty | Aug 19, 2019
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 19, 2019

You must be 18 or over for all services. If you are under 18 you may have a guardian or parent with you to sign the waiver for any waxing or threading. You must be 18 and over for all tinting and lifting services.

Do I need an appointment?

Brow Betty | Aug 19, 2019
Brow Betty Progress Ridge | Aug 19, 2019

We do accept walk-ins but highly recommend making an appointment in advance to avoid long wait times. Please be 5-10 minutes early as we have short appointment times and you may risk losing your appointment if you are late. If you are unable to keep your appointment we would appreciate a phone call within 24 hours if at all possible.
