WAXING - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Does a bikini wax hurt?
​
Again, the answer to this does vary slightly. There’s no escaping that your first intimate waxing experience may be accompanied by a smarting sting. However, if you choose a professional and experienced beauty technician, they will ensure that they use methods and techniques to minimise the discomfort. Additionally, after the first time, it’s not as uncomfortable as the hair follicles have less ‘grip’ on the individual hairs. Most clients report that it didn’t hurt as much as they anticipated it would.

What is Bikini wax?
​
Bikini waxing is the removal of pubic hair using a special wax, which can be hot or cold, that adheres to hairs and pulls them out when the wax is removed quickly from the skin, usually with a cloth strip. While the practice is mainly associated with women, male waxing is sometimes done to remove men's pubic hair.
