Hair Waxing

Removal of unwanted hair can sometimes be very fussy and painful. There maybe a lot of hair removal products in the market, but it is still best to go to the experts if you want long-lasting results minus the hassle of doing it yourself.

Unwanted hair is eliminated using wax method. The procedure is inexpensive, convenient and can last for some weeks in most cases. It is very effective in removing large amounts of hair in various areas such as face, upper lip, underarms, bikini area, and legs.

Using a fabric strip, the soft wax is easily spread thinly over the skin in the direction of hair growth, and then pressed on the top. It is finally ripped off with a quick pull back action removing the wax along with the hair and dead skin cells. Procedure lasts between 15 to 30 minutes depending on the area/s and amount of hair to be removed.

Healing cream is applied immediately after the procedure to sooth irritated skin due to the hair waxing action. There may be slight to severe pain which may last from seconds to minutes.
