I prefer to use Hot Wax for Brazillian & Bikini lines, Hot wax is much gentler on the skin, and also stronger, so it can grab thicker and shorter hairs.  Hot Wax pulls the hair from the root without creating breakage, or damaging the layers of the skin.  Look for a beautician who chooses to use Hot Wax on your sensitive areas.

Hot wax is ideally used for Brazilian and Bikini lines.  Hot wax is thicker, it is applied to the skin, then you wait for it to turn hard before pulling it off.

Strip wax is best used for larger areas such as, legs, arms, back.  It is applied to the skin, but it remains sticky.  You don’t need to wait for it to dry like hot wax.  You then place a fabric strip over the wax to remove the hair.  Hence the name strip wax.

Yes. Exfoliating helps to remove dead skin cells, leaving your skin feeling smoother.  Exfoliating allows the wax to penetrate the skin to help grab the hairs better.

Clearly waxing isn’t relaxing, however it may not be as bad as you think. As soon as it’s done there is no after pain. It’s like ripping of a band-aid, you want to do it as quickly as possible.

Of course you can, and of course this comes down to the individuals choice whether to wax or not.  There is no contraindications for waxing during pregnancy.  A lot of women tend to come for a Brazilian wax a week or two before their due date.

Brazillian waxing can be done as early as 3 weeks.  I usually recommend waxing between 3-4 weeks.  If you leave your waxing until 5+ weeks, because you “think” that you are going to grab more hair and it will grow back slower, this is incorrect.  Each hair growth cycle is approximately 4-5 weeks, however if you begin to wax at 5-6 weeks, the new underlying hair growth of the next cycle has already begun to come through. When you do wax, you won’t be as smooth for as long because the next cycle of hair is already coming through. This is why I recommend grabbing the hair earlier in the Cycle around 3-4 weeks so you can be smoother for longer.

Legs can be waxed from 2 weeks onwards from your last shave. If you’ve been waxing regularly, usually you wax approximately every 3-4 Weeks.

Underarms can be waxed fortnightly if you choose because they grow back quickly, however most people usually wax them every 4 weeks, because it makes sense to get all your waxing done in the one appointment every month.

Eyebrows are waxed generally every 4 weeks, however this can vary hugely depending on your eyebrow regrowth.  If you have been regularly waxing your eyebrows for years and not plucking in between, you can usually get up to 6-8 weeks without having to wax your brows.  However, if you are just starting out, I would recommend coming regularly every 3-4 weeks to maintain your new eyebrow shape.
