Waxing

All of the basic waxing treatments along with a selection of specialist waxing treatments are available at the salon.

Prior to the treatment - the therapist will cleanse the area using a specially formulated pre-cleansing lotion. The therapist will then apply a high quality cream warm wax and remove the unwanted hair. You should ensure that the hair to be waxed is a minimum of around 0.75cm - 1cm so that the wax will take to the hair effectively. This is normally around 2 weeks post-shaving growth for most ladies or 4-6 weeks post waxing.

Once the waxing has been completed, a soothing tea tree lotion is applied to nourish and calm the skin helping it to recover quickly from the waxing treatment.

Waxing - After Treatment Advice

Freshly waxed skin needs to be looked after for 24 - 48 hours after treatment regardless of the size of the area that has been treated. The hair follicles will remain open for up to 12 hours and heat will be retained in the skin, therefore, to avoid any complications the following advice must be adhered to

No hot baths or showers for 24 hours
No sunbeds or sun exposure for at least 24 hours
Wear loose clothing after treatment
Do not apply perfumed products for at least 24 hours
Do not apply make-up over the waxed area
Avoid touching the area that has been treated
Do not swim for at least 24 hours
Do not exfoliate for at least 24 hours

If you are unfortunate enough to suffer with ingrown hairs it is best not to try to squeeze them out of the skin as quite often this can lead to infection of the hair follicle. We would suggest exfoliating the areas you have waxed twice a week to prevent ingrown hairs, you may also like to try applying a suitable solution to help raise the hairs out of the skin. Further advice and products are available at the salon.
