It’s no surprise if you’re tired of your tedious home hair removal routine. Shaving can be uncomfortable, can result in razor burn and ingrown hairs, and doesn’t give long-lasting results. Plucking is effective, but it’s tedious and painful. Waxing lets you enjoy weeks of hairlessness from just one treatment. It can be good for your skin and can lead to finer hairs in the treated area. Forget the razor and ditch the tweezers: ensure your skin is silky smooth and hairless.

Waxing: the Best Way to Smooth
Waxing is a very popular method of hair removal because it:
- Removes all hair in the treated area
- Gives smooth results with no stubble or ingrown hairs
- Causes no razor burn
- Results in long-lasting hairlessness
- Is a short treatment
- Allows precise definition of groomed areas
- Can be used on all parts of the body
These benefits mean that waxing is very effective at creating a handsome, smooth appearance that is good for your skin. It’s a great value in hair removal, and can be a positive experience.
Generally preferred over shaving because it gives longer-lasting results and doesn’t cause stubble, ingrown hairs, or razor burns.
Chosen over laser hair removal because it results in more complete hair removal and works on all skin and hair types.
Chosen over electrolysis because electrolysis is very time-consuming, expensive, and painful.
Types of Waxing We Offer
We offer waxing for all parts of the body, including:
- Facial
- Body

Basically, if you have hair, we can wax there.
Where Facial Waxing Can Be Used
Waxing can be used on any facial hair, including:
- Eyebrows
- Cheek and sideburns

- Chin
- Neck
You decide what hair you’re happy with and what you want to get rid of. You decide the style and the shape. It is just a great way to achieve the results you’re looking for. With waxing, the lines are clearly and the waxed areas are smooth and stay hairless for a long time. When hairs grow back, they tend to be thinner.
Where Body Waxing Can Remove Hair
Body waxing can be used to remove hair from virtually anywhere. We can remove hair from your:
- Stomach
- Chest
- Arm
- Underarm
- Back
- Shoulders
- Legs
Waxing can be used to completely remove hair from an area or to contour the hair in the area, such as creating a well-defined patch of chest hair for men
How Long Do Results Last?
Waxing typically gives you about four weeks before hair begins to grow back. Some people don’t see hair growing back until six weeks after treatment. You may notice a few sparse hairs begin to grow in sooner because hair grows in different phases. Hair that was dormant when the waxing was done would not be affected by it.
Does It Hurt?
Yes, but pain is highly subjective, and the degree of it depends on your individual tolerance. Most people find the discomfort from waxing to be tolerable and transient. Many people take over-the-counter pain relievers before their waxing appointment.
Are There Risks from Waxing?
Waxing is a very safe procedure, but it is not without risk. There is a slight risk of burns, infection, and scarring.
- Avoiding sun exposure
- Not working up a sweat for 10-12 hours after
- Avoid heated water sources, including saunas, steam rooms, and even baths for 48 hours
- Do not exfoliate waxed areas for 24 hours—besides, it’s unnecessary as it exfoliates the area
- Avoid tight clothing
Who Is Not a Candidate?
Some skin conditions and medications may mean that you are not a good candidate. Conditions like rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, and other skin disorders make your skin susceptible to injury with waxing. Recent skin damage, either accidental like a sunburn or intentional, such as a chemical peel or microdermabrasion, means that area should not be waxed.
Many medications also make your skin vulnerable. Talk to your doctor about whether your prescriptions will impact your treatment.
