Our therapist will be happy to discuss the options available to help you choose the most suitable for you
Types of hair.
Vellus hair is lighter, shorter and finer than terminal hair and can grow anywhere on the body . This is the type of hair that you have on your cheeks and arms, The purpose of vellus hair is to help regulate our body temperature— it helps to keep us warm.
Terminal hair is a deeply pigmented, thick, dense hair which have deeper follicles than vellus hair and grow further down in the dermis. Usually underarms. bikini line and intimate areas, above the top lip and on the chin as we get older. They grow on sensitive areas and are thicker than vellus hair and can be a little more painful to remove
Strip and Hot Waxing
This is the most popular method of waxing. It consists of resin, paraffin wax, glucose syrup and honey. Warm wax is smoothed onto the skin in a thin layer and immediately covered with a fabric or paper strip which is pressed/rubbed on to the waxed area before being removed in a quick swipe. Strip waxing is quicker than hot wax and larger areas can be waxed at one go.
Hot wax is a thicker type of wax usually used in intimate waxing. Hot wax is applied using a waxing stick and more than one layer may be applied, No paper strips are needed as hot wax has a thicker consistency than warm wax and as it cools it becomes firmer contracting on the hairs and gripping them tightly and is removed off the skin with a fast movement. Hot wax will remove shorter more stubborn hair and is used in intimate waxing treatments

WAXING AFTERCARE ADVICE
Thank you for choosing us for your waxing service. Please follow the guidelines below to ensure your skin is cared for properly over the next few days. Please note: some slight soreness, small bumps and redness are common and perfectly normal temporary reactions, particularly if this is your first wax. These symptoms should subside over the next 24-48 hours. If you experience persistent redness or irritation, or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Keep the waxed area clean, and avoid heat and friction during the next 24-48 hours. This means:
• No hot baths or showers (cool to lukewarm water only). • No saunas, hot tubs or steam treatments. • No tanning (sunbathing, sunbeds or fake tans).
• No sport, gym work or other exercise.
• Avoid scratching or touching the treated area with unwashed hands.
• Wear clean, loose fitting clothes. • Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools
. • Do not apply deodorants, body sprays, powders, lotions or other products to the area, other than those recommended by your therapist.
• To soothe and protect the skin, apply an antiseptic cream to the waxed area regularly for 3 days following your treatment. Always wash your hands before applying any product.
To prevent ingrown hairs: starting a few days after your appointment, gently scrub the skin 3 times a week in the bath or shower using a loofah or exfoliating mitt. Also moisturise the area every day, which will keep the skin supple and help new hairs to grow through normally.
You may notice a small amount of regrowth after a week or so. It can take up to 4 treatments for your hair to get on a growth cycle that gives best results.
Hair needs to be at least ½ cm long before it can be successfully removed by waxing; please do not shave between your appointments. To maintain your smooth appearance, we recommend regular waxing every 4-6 weeks.
Disclaimer; Please do not attend your appointment in your best clothes, we will not be held responsible if wax or any of the products used is accidentally spilt on clothing Give us a 5 star
