Waxing treatments

Waxing is a temporary hair removal treatment of hair not less than approximately 10mm long, lasting four to six weeks.
 

Waxing takes hair removal a step further by going under the skin and pulling the hair out from the root, thus extending that silky-smooth feeling longer than a day, which is the average length of time shaving works for.

Waxing is not permanent. It does, however, keep hair away for as long as two weeks, depending on the area and how often you have it treated. Because waxing hits at the follicle root, hair grows back thinner with each treatment, thus greatly reducing the coarseness of hair.

It is advisable that up to 24 hours after any waxing treatment, you should:
- Avoid heat treatments, including sunbeds, sunbathing, and hot baths/showers.
- Avoid applying scented products or make-up to the waxed area.
- Wear only loose clothing.

 

Waxing procedure

The waxing procedure is quick and involves a warm tea tree wax being applied to the skin in the direction of the hair growth using a wooden spatula. This hair is then pulled off in the opposite direction using fabric strips. A cooling lotion is then applied to keep the skin healthy and supple.

The area to be waxed requires varying times. Below shows approximate times taken:

 

Full leg wax including bikini line        40 minutes,

Full/Half leg wax                                30/20 minutes,

Full/Half arm wax                              20/15 minutes,
Bikini wax/Brazilian wax                    10-15 minutes,

Underarm wax                                   15 minutes,

Lip or Chin wax                                 5 minutes,

Full face/Side face wax                      15/10 minutes.
