Waxing

Waxing is a method of removing unwanted hair from the root. The benefit of waxing is the hair will not grow back in the waxed area for up to three to eight weeks. New hair growth in the waxed area is soft and fine and with repeated waxing, hair re-growth is less common and eventually may cease. Waxing involves spreading warm wax thinly over the skin in the area for hair removal. A cloth strip is placed on top of the warm wax and ripped off with a quick movement against the direction of the hair. This removes the wax along with the hair and dead skin cells, leaving the skin smooth and silky. Prior to the waxing treatment, your therapist will cleanse the area with a specially formulated pre-wax cleansing lotion. Warm wax is then applied to the area and the hair is removed Please remember that hair needs to be 0.77 – 1 cm of growth (this is approximately 2 weeks after shaving or 4-6 weeks after waxing.) After the wax has been completed I will apply Aloe Vera soothing gel after wax which helps soothe the skin and reduce redness.
