A typical treatment

On this page we describe a typical treatment so you know what to expect.

All new clients will start by completing a consultation form. Here you are asked a few health related questions to ensure it is safe to proceed with the treatment. The consultation is your opportunity to ask questions so don't be afraid to use this time to find out more about your waxing treatment and therapist

The therapist will then check the area being treated to see which direction the hair is growing and check for any moles or obviously sensitive areas.

Next a pre-waxing lotion is applied to the skin to cleanse and protect the skin. Any excess lotion is removed.

Using crème Wax

A thin layer of wax is applied to the skin. There are different methods for doing this including the traditional spatula, roll on and plastic applicator. Next a fabric or paper strip is pressed onto the waxed area, rubbed in and quickly pulled away against the direction of hair growth, removing the hair from its follicle. This is repeated over the whole area and the treatment finishes with an aftercare lotion to soothe the skin.

Using hard Brazilian Wax

Brazilian wax is usually applied using a spatula. Unlike the crème wax a thicker coat is applied which solidifies in a few minutes. The solid wax is pulled off without the need for a fabric strip. The hard wax is ideal for sensitive areas as it does not stick to  the skin.

It is very important that the skin in the area being waxed is kept taught to avoid any bruising. To help this you may be asked to change positions during the treatment or to use your hands to pull down on the skin. 

At the end of the treatment you will be given some aftercare advice to follow.
