Waxing

Waxing is a method of semi-permanent hair removal which removes the hair from the root. New hair 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.

Before waxing

We suggest that hair is ideally 1cm long to achieve best results. Wear loose underwear for intimate waxing and loose clothing for all other areas. Approximately 4 treatments will ensure your hair growth runs to its natural cycle and will in turn provide optimum waxing results. Always exfoliate prior to your waxing appointment – this will lift / remove any in-growing.

 After care

Keep the area clean and dry, wear loose, clothing and ensure that there is no heat exposure, no swimming or exercise for 24 – 48 hours, no perfumed lotions should be applied to the treated area.

 Post waxing

Avoid heat treatments for 24 – 48 hours, including sauna, steam, gym, baths, hot showers and sunbeds. Avoid wearing tight clothing and touching the treated area. Exfoliate after one week of your treatment and continue to do so once a week to minimise in-growing hairs. Re-book your next wwaxing treatment for 4-6 weeks time. This helps your hair cycle to establish its regular pattern. Avoid having a shower 24hrs post treatment and also applying lotions and creams to the area especially perfumed products.
