Waxing is a form of semi-permanent hair removal which removes the hairs from the root. Over time, and if consistent with your waxing appointments, you can see less hair growth and individual hairs will grow back thinner and softer.
Body waxing services for down there…
French: This service goes deeper into the sides and top, and also removes any hair between the bum cheeks.
Bikini: Hair is removed from the top & sides of your undies.
Brazilian: Everything is removed, including the front, the labia and between the cheeks. However, you can leave a small strip or triangle on top if you’d like.
The Technique
Soft wax and strips for all regular wax procedures. In order to effectively remove all of your hair, it must be a quarter of an inch in length. So, if you’ve been shaving, this typically amounts to 2-3 weeks worth of growth. Your hair will become finer, softer and more sparse with regular waxes. The degree and speed of progress will vary from person to person. Sticking to a consistent wax schedule will yield the best results. Recommend returning every 3 – 5 weeks.
A few words from Gemma…
“It is my goal to make you feel at home and comfortable in a sometimes awkward circumstance. I specialize in hair removal, to be more precise, Brazilians! A full Brazilian wax takes (at most) 20 mins and I pride myself on the importance of efficiency. Making your experience quick and easy. We also offer a TV and/or music during your wax to help take your mind off of any discomforts. I got you!”
Additional Notes
If you’re feeling concerned about pain or discomfort, take an Advil (1-2) an hour before your wax.
Exfoliate your skin 24-48 hours before your wax. Don’t apply any lotions, creams, self-tanners or sprays before your appointment, they can interfere with the application of the wax.
When you tense up, the muscles around your hair follicles tighten, making the process more difficult (and more uncomfortable). Practice deep breathing.
Loose-fitting clothes and natural fabrics will let your skin breathe easier post-wax.
