If I'm having a waxing treatment, how long should I leave the hairs to grow first?

Don't worry, you don't have to let it grow too long.

Your hair doesn't have to be ultra-long before a wax. For best results, let your hair grow to about 5mm / a quarter of an inch long, depending on the thickness of the hair.
