Waxing
Waxing is a method of semi-permanent hair removal which removes the hair from the root. New hairs will not grow back in the previously waxed area for two to eight weeks. Almost any area of the body can be waxed, including eyebrows, face, bikini area, legs, arms, back, abdomen and feet. There are many types of waxing suitable for removing unwanted hair. If waxing is done regularly for several years, permanent hair reduction may be achieved.
Waxing is accomplished by spreading a wax combination thinly over the skin. A cloth or paper strip is then pressed on the top and ripped off with a quick movement against the direction of hair growth. This removes the wax along with the hair.
Benefits...
- Long lasting form of hair removal
- Hair grows back finer with regular sessions.
- Beautifully smooth skin with no stubble.
Useful Info...
- Avoid excessive exposure to UVA 48 hours prior to your treatment.
- Try not to wear perfumes, lotions or make-up on areas to be waxed prior to your treatment.

Intimate Waxing
The Brazilian named after the Brazilian women who needed a barely-there bikini wax in order to sport their much-loved itsy-bitsy thongs on the beach. All that is left is a neat triangle of hair. The Brazilian usually includes the waxing of the sensitive bits as well as between the buttocks - which is why it can feel a little more painful than a traditional bikini wax. It is, of course, especially popular before we jet off on holiday as it gives the impression of nothing there - even in the smallest of bikini bottoms. The Hollywood is an everything off wax, leaving you totally bare down there. For the very brave only.
Benefits...
- Reported increased confidence regarding cleanliness and odor control.
- No escaped hairs
- Not as painful as you may imagine
- Less likely to suffer from ingrown hairs.
Useful Info...
- Do be prepared to take your pants off (not for a normal wax - just for a more extreme wax such as a Brazilian/Hollywood)
- Do trim long hair to about 2cm, it is the ideal length, too short and the wax won't stick
- Do take a paracetamol 15 minutes before waxing - it will help with the pain
- Exfoliate the area as it stops in growing hairs
- Don't have a wax mid-cycle it will be more painful
- Do give it a go if you don't like the look it will all grow back!
