Should I Get Waxed Before A Boudoir Shoot?

It is ultimately up to you and what makes you feel comfortable and confident. Some people choose to get waxed before a boudoir shoot to remove excess hair and feel more polished, while others prefer to keep their natural hair. Again, whatever feels right for you is the right choice.

If you do decide to get waxed, make sure you allow enough time for the redness and irritation to go away before the shoot.

I've worked with Monina since 2013 and she is also my primary hair stylist and makeup artist for my photo shoots — so if you're interested in waxing or a facial before your shoot, she's who I recommend to my own clients.
