How is AKAMARU different from other day spas?

AKAMARU uses holistic healing products in all of our services.  We have over 10 years of experience in the spa industry.  Our clients are treated like royalty.  We are very compassionate about your feelings and want to help you achieve your treatment and wellness goals.

How long does my hair have to be to get a AKAMARU Wax or Hair Removal Treatment?

The length of your body hair should be trimmed down or grown out to the size of a grain of rice for a painless wax experience.  If your body hair is way too long your wax will be more painful.  If the body hair is too short all of the hair follicles will not come out during your wax and will have to be tweezed.  Tweezing can be painful in certain areas.  Our main goal at Akamuru is to help you to have a painless wax experience.

Should I wash my face before I receive a facial?

When you wake up in the morning you should thank God for your life, wash your face and brush your teeth as a routine.  We would like all of our clients to have a skincare regimen specifically designed for their skincare needs.  We sell and recommend specific products that will help rejuvenate your skin and restore you back to balance.

What should I do to prepare for my Treatments?

Please be sure to take a shower the day you are scheduled to arrive for your treatment.  Arrive at least 10-15 minutes early to fill out questionnaires and consultation forms. If you are sick, have a Cold or Flu-like symptoms please call us within 24 hours to avoid being charged and reschedule your appointment.

Can I get a Brazilian wax during my menstrual cycle or period?

Ideally, blood is a biohazard and should be contained during your treatments. You must wear a tampon to reduce the risk of exposure of blood during a Brazilian wax treatment or wait until your cycle ends to receive a Brazilian wax.

How often should I book a treatment at Akamaru?

Every one is unique in their own way.  Your treatment goals may vary depending on how much pain you have, how often you work out, your stress levels, acne etc.  We would like to see all of our clients at least once a month. Most of our clients book once a week.  We suggest you pre-book your appointments to secure the treatments in advance.
