Waxing Treatments
All of the basic waxing treatments along with a selection specialist waxing treatments are available at the salon.
Prior to the treatment - the therapist will cleanse the area using a specially formulated pre-cleansing lotion. The therapist will then apply a high quality cream warm wax and remove the unwanted hair. You should ensure that the hair to be waxed is a minimum of around 0.75cm - 1cm so that the wax will take to the hair effectively. This is normally around 2 weeks post-shaving growth for most ladies or 4-6 weeks post waxing.
Once the waxing has been completed, a soothing lotion is applied to soothe and help the skin recover from the waxing treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question: What length should my hairs be for waxing?
Answer: Generally the hairs will be trimmed to a maximum of 10mm. A minimum of around 5mm is required.
Question: Is waxing painful?
Answer: Its rather like removing a plaster. If you are a wax virgin then you may find it slightly more uncomfortable at first. The more waxing you have the less uncomfortable it becomes. It really depends on your threshold - taking pain killers around one hour prior to any waxing treatment may help.
Question: Will the hair stop growing after waxing?
Answer: Waxing makes the hair finer and but it's not a permanent hair removal method.
Question: How long should I leave it between waxing sessions?
Answer: 4 to 6 weeks is recommended to allow the hair to grow to at least 5mm.
Question: What measures can be taken to help prevent ingrown hairs?
Answer: Exfoliate before waxing and again 2-3 days after so that the hairs can grow freely through the skin.
Question: Am I likely to suffer from any skin reactions?
Answer: You may suffer with red and or blotchy skin after waxing. This normally lasts for around 2 hours but may last up to 24 hours. If you are particularly concerned about the effect waxing will have on your skin, we are able to offer a free patch test at least 24 hours to your treatment. Call for information.
Question: Do you offer after care advice?
Answer: Yes your therapist will offer advice on the day of the treatment but the general advice given is as follows:
- No hot baths or showers for 24 hours
- No sunbeds or sun exposure for at least 24 hours
- Wear loose clothing after treatment
There may be products on the market that can help to soothe the skin after waxing and we will be pleased to discuss this with you during the treatment.
