Waxing - the method of semi-permanent hair removal which removes the hair from the root. New hairs will not grow back in the previously waxed area for two to eight weeks. Almost any area of the body can be waxed, including eyebrows, face, bikini area, legs, arms, back, abdomen and feet.
A brazilian bikini wax is getting all of the hair removed from the bikini area and/or leaving a strip or triangle on top. It also includes the under side.
For best results you should wait 3 weeks from the day you last shaved. Why? Are you kidding me right now? Because we have 4 to 6 growth cycles, the hair you shave today, is not the same hair growing in tomorrow, its different hair. So we want all the growth out, so you can be hairless for a longer period of time. Don’t worry, you can still get waxed at one or two weeks of growth, but be assured that there will be shaved hairs still growing in, in the days to follow.
We are all different. Realisticly, you will see hairs come in by week 2. It will never come in the same, meaning the density you started with. So by 3 to 4 weeks you are due to come back in. The hair will still be very little, than what you started with. Fact: We are constantly growing hair.
For best results and to keep the hair away for a longer period of time and maintained, you should come in every 3 to 4 weeks, as time goes on, that will change to 5-6 weeks for some. Everyone is going through different phases of life, some are on prenatals and/or pregnant and will grow more hair. Some are just good about taking their vitamins and are very health conscious. And some are going through menopause and are on hormone replacement. Fact: Hormones and nutrition dictates the amount of hair growth.
It depends on the person, so yes and no. Some fall asleep, yes honestly they do. Some clients don’t flitch, some laugh, because it tickles. No one has ever cried. Some read and write out their to do list. Some have sensitive skin to begin with and know what to expect. Some are on there period or close to getting their periods, they will usually be more sensitive than usual. Some even on their periods have no sensitivity. So everyone is truly different. Your body is constantly going through its changes daily. There is numbing cream that you can purchase here and must be applied 35-40 min before your appointment. Also, the flitching comes from not really knowing what to expect, like when the pull is going to happen or if it hurts or how it may hurt.
There are clients as young as 9, 10 and 12, that come in with their moms. They have brows, upper lip, underarms and lower legs taken care of. They start sides of bikini, usually at age 11 for pool parties, and by high school they are getting the brazilian bikini wax. By starting young, before they ever shave, the hair is considered virgin hair, so they actually get the best results.
Absolutely! There are also a couple of great products that I stock that work wonders. They are Pore Restore and Get the Bump Outta Here.
