Waxing
What is waxing?
Waxing, very simply, is a safe and effective semi-permanent method of hair 
removal. Using heated wax to remove unwanted facial and body hair from the 
root.

What type of wax should I use?
Firstly, there are two types of wax – warm and hot. Soft wax is removed with strips and generally used on legs, arms and men’s 
chest and back.
Hard wax is a thicker wax that built up on the skin and 
removed when set, there are no strips involved. Hot wax is used for all 
bikini’s, underarm and facial waxing.

How do I benefit from waxing?
Waxing reduces hair growth over time as a result of regular treatments every 
four weeks. While shaving crops the hair at the skin's surface, waxing pulls it 
out by the root, so it grows back softer, finer, and thinner. Waxing is great 
for those who are tired of the hassle of shaving several times per week. The 
more you wax, the less hair grows back.

I’ve never been waxed before. What should I expect after my first waxing 
treatment?
Hairless skin! Also, everyone's skin reacts differently to waxing treatments, 
but you can expect to have temporary redness and possible histamine bumps which 
is your body’s natural reaction to the hair been pulled from the root. Slight 
itchiness may be experienced as also when the starts to hair grows out. Proper 
post-wax care will alleviate these symptoms quickly.

If you’re a bride or attending a special occasion, I recommend receiving 
waxing services a month before your special day to see how your skin reacts. If 
everything is fine, reschedule another wax a few days before.
