Waxing

Why wax?

Waxing is fabulous at quickly, affordably and safely removing hair from most areas of the body. We offer in-home waxing for the upper lip, eyebrows, chin, underarms and arms, as well as legs and bikini areas. 

Waxing lasts longer than shaving, which is the usual alternative. Whilst you’ll be reaching for the razor again within a day or two, with waxing you can be hair free for as long as six weeks. 

Different types of waxing

There are two methods of waxing: hot waxing and warm waxing. With warm waxing, the wax is applied directly to the skin using a spatula. Strips of fabric are smoothed over the wax and then removed quickly, removing the wax and hair from the skin.

Hot waxing uses hot wax applied directly to the skin. The wax is left to cool and harden on the skin. The corner of the wax is then lifted up and the wax is pulled directly off the skin.

Hot waxing helps to open the pores more before the strips are removed, making it better suited to more sensitive areas. For us, hot wax benefits outweigh those of warm wax in most scenarios.
