Talk to salon workers when you're touring the facility and find out what qualifications they have. Ask where they went to school or how they became qualified, look for diplomas or certificates of certification and find out how many years of experience they have administering body wax treatments.

Request the body waxer's references or ask to speak to one of the waxer's clients. Most body waxers that have been working in a salon for a considerable length of time have a loyal clientele that they service regularly, so they may be able to put you in touch with a client. Find out if the client is truly satisfied with the service at the salon and if she has ever had any problems or complications during or after the procedure.

Ask about what direction the wax is applied, what vitamins or additives are in the wax to help condition the skin, how the wax is removed, how often he recommends waxing and if there are any side effects or complications that you should expect. Any qualified salon worker should be able to readily supply this information. If he can't, he's probably not qualified to do your body waxing.
