Waxing

Waxing is a hair removal technique that involves applying wax, which is primarily made of resin and other chemicals, to the skin. It is known for being one of the fastest methods to remove hair from the roots, as it allows for the removal of large areas of hair in a single motion using strips.

During the waxing process, the hair is pulled out in the opposite direction of its growth. However, this can sometimes result in hair breakage or incomplete removal from the roots. In such cases, tweezers are often used to remove any remaining short hairs. While waxing is an affordable and quick method, it can occasionally lead to hair breakage and may cause ingrown hairs.

Waxing is most suitable for individuals who need a quick solution and are not necessarily looking for long-lasting results.

[ What's the difference between Waxing and Sugaring ]

Soft Wax / Strip Wax

Ideal for soft hair on the body.

Applied to the skin in a thin layer in the direction of hair growth. A cloth or paper strip is then placed over the wax and quickly removed to pull the hair out.

Hard Wax /Hot Wax

Best for thicker hair in areas like the armpits and bikini (V.I.O) regions

Applied to the skin in the direction of hair growth. As it solidifies, it adheres to the hair and is then pulled off in the opposite direction of hair growth.

Salon Waxing Guidelines

Hair Length

Hair should be at least one centimeter long. Short hairs can be difficult to remove, and any remaining hairs may need to be finished with tweezers, which are used sparingly to reduce the risk of ingrown hairs. If the hair is too short, we recommend sugaring or advise clients to let their hair grow longer before returning.

efficiency

Wax is applied over a wide area and removed quickly, ensuring a fast and efficient treatment. However, as the wax is applied in the direction of hair growth and pulled out in the opposite direction, some hairs may break off midway.

treatment area

At our salon, we do not use wax for areas above the neck (including the entire face except for nasal hair, front neck, and nape) or for male Brazilian waxing. Instead, we recommend sugaring. Laser hair removal is also available.
