0 views

For a Brazilian wax, the ideal hair length is around 1/4 to 3/4 of an inch (about the length of a grain of rice). This allows the wax to grip the hair effectively without causing excessive discomfort. If the hair is too long, trim it beforehand, but avoid shaving as hair needs some length to be effectively removed.
