What’s Included in an Upper Lip Wax
Though small in area, upper lip waxing requires attention to detail and an expert approach to avoid irritation and ensure smooth, long-lasting results. Here’s what to expect:
Targeted Hair Removal
Our brow and facial waxing specialists apply soft, skin-sensitive wax to the upper lip area — including the corners of the mouth and edge of the lip line, depending on your hair pattern. Whether you have visible dark hair or fine peach fuzz, we tailor the wax application for complete coverage.
Fast, Precise Technique
Speed and precision are key. The entire service typically takes under 10 minutes, making it perfect for a quick lunch break visit or pre-event polish. The process is swift and strategic, helping reduce discomfort and leaving behind a clean, hair-free surface.
Calming Post-Wax Treatment
Once the wax is removed, we apply a soothing post-wax serum or balm designed to reduce inflammation, calm redness, and leave the skin feeling refreshed — not raw. We’ll also go over post-care tips to help you avoid irritation and extend your results.
Benefits of Upper Lip Waxing
Upper lip waxing is a small detail that makes a noticeable difference — whether you wear makeup daily or prefer a more natural look.
Longer-Lasting Smoothness
Unlike shaving, which can lead to quick regrowth and blunt edges, waxing removes the hair from the root. This leads to smoother skin that lasts 2–4 weeks on average, depending on your hair growth cycle.
Better Makeup Application
Removing peach fuzz and fine hair helps create a more even surface for foundation, concealer, and lip products. Makeup glides on more smoothly and sits more evenly without clinging to unwanted hair.
Minimal Upkeep
A short appointment every few weeks is all it takes to keep this area clean and hair-free. Over time, many clients also notice slower, finer regrowth.
Boosted Confidence
Unwanted facial hair can be frustrating or affect your confidence — especially in bright lighting or high-def photography. A quick upper lip wax helps you feel effortlessly polished and photo-ready at any time.

Perfect for:
- Clients dealing with visible upper lip hair (coarse or fine)
- Anyone who wants a smoother look for makeup or skincare
- First-timers exploring facial waxing with a low-commitment area
- Regular waxing clients wanting to stay consistently polished
- Quick pre-event grooming before weddings, photos, or vacations
What to Expect at Your Appointment
We know facial waxing is a personal experience, especially if it’s your first time. At House22, your comfort, privacy, and confidence are always the priority.
Your wax specialist will walk you through the process, ensure the skin is prepped properly, and apply wax with care and precision. The entire experience is quick and discreet, and our post-wax care ensures your skin is left calm, clean, and ready for the day ahead. If you have questions about sensitivity, frequency, or pairing this service with others (like chin or full face waxing), we’re happy to guide you.
