Professional Brazilian waxing leaves a natural looking central strip of hair. A pre-wax solution is used to cleanse the area and prepare the skin. Warm cream wax is applied and removed using waxing strips – just as with a normal bikini wax.
A after wax lotion is then applied to the skin – which will have a cooling and soothing effect on the waxed area.
What exactly is a Brazilian bikini wax?
The traditional Brazilian is less about the landing strip left in front but more about the complete hair removal of everything behind. Brazilian waxing is not for the modest as it is basically done “in the buff”.
Will you be embarrassed?
Stripping down to nothing in front of a stranger will feel a bit awkward for many first time waxers – but do keep in mind:
• You are with a professional
• Nobody is judging you
• You are not the hairiest person they have seen – neither is your bum the biggest
• The whole experience is rather clinical
• A trained, fully qualified therapist will remove any unwanted hair as quickly and painlessly as possible, usually in about 10-30 minutes
• When it comes to the eternal question of pain, everyone has a different thresholds so there no right answer here but pain killers (not aspirin) taken around one hour before any waxing treatment can help reduce any pain you may experience
• You should expect to experience some discomfort during waxing but in our opinion, that momentary discomfort is so worth it. Hello soft, smooth skin and goodbye razor burn, ingrown hairs and not least that post shave itching that we all just love!
Aftercare advice
• No hot baths or showers for 24 hours
• No sunbeds or sun exposure for at least 24 hours
• Wear loose clothing after treatment
