Waxing vs. Shaving—Why Monterey Bay’s Smoothest Choose Waxing Services.

The Long-Term Win for Your Skin

Still clinging to your razor like it's doing you a favor? Let’s break it down. Waxing removes hair from the root, while shaving only cuts it at the surface. That means smoother skin for longer—typically 3–4 weeks of hair-free freedom—compared to the daily (or let’s be honest, every-other-day) grind of shaving.

At Waxing By the Sea, Monterey Bay’s go-to for expert waxing services, we're all about results that last. Waxing helps hair grow back finer, softer, and slower over time. Shaving? That just leads to stubble, razor burn, and the constant risk of ingrowns.

If you're tired of the bumps, blades, and bathroom drama, it’s time to upgrade. Our waxing services don't just remove hair—they help transform your skin’s texture and reduce regrowth over time. So toss the razor and step into something smoother—you’ll never look back.

“Highly HIGHLY recommend Arline! What a cute studio! Such a quick and efficient experience with someone who really knows what they are doing and talking about regarding waxing and hair care.”

~ Julie Vogel.

“I visited Waxing by the Sea in Seaside, CA, for a Brazilian wax, and I cannot recommend this place enough! This was my second time ever getting a Brazilian, but my first time here, and the experience was night and day compared to my first. First off, the place itself is wonderful—clean, safe, and with a nice, inviting vibe that immediately put me at ease. Arline did an amazing job! She was thorough, patient, and made sure to get all the hair and wax removed perfectly. Unlike my first experience at a European Wax Center, where they left some hair and even wax behind, Arline’s attention to detail was impeccable. She also took the time to explain aftercare, which I really appreciated. If you're new to waxing and feeling nervous about where to start, trust me: book here first. Arline is kind, professional, and genuinely great at what she does. I'll definitely be coming back!”

~ Franshisca Delgado.

“Arline is incredibly skilled and makes the waxing process super quick and comfortable. The space is always clean and welcoming, which helps you feel very at ease. Every appointment a great experience with her, she truly goes above and beyond to ensure you have a flawless experience!”

~ Stephanie Tellez.

Quick Answers to Your Top Questions—Straight from Monterey Bay’s Favorite Waxing Center.

We get it—when you're booking a wax, especially for the first time, you've got questions. Waxing By the Sea is Monterey Bay’s trusted waxing center, and we're all about keeping you informed, prepared, and totally chill. Here's what you need to know:

Brazilian Waxing, Body Waxing, and Everything In Between.

  • Yes! With consistent waxing, hair tends to grow back finer, softer, and more sparse over time. It’s one of the major perks of ditching the razor.

  • Ingrowns can happen, but with proper exfoliation and the right aftercare (which we'll help you with), you can minimize or even prevent them.

  • Absolutely. Waxing By the Sea offers full body waxing for men—including back, chest, shoulders, and more—in a clean, professional, no-judgment environment.

  • Skip the gym for at least 24 hours. Sweat and friction can irritate freshly waxed skin and increase your risk of ingrowns or breakouts.

  • Nope! Let us handle it. Hair that's too short won't come out properly, and hair that’s a bit longer is totally fine—we'll trim if needed.
