The Male Basic Back Waxing Treatment

Male Back Waxing Treatment – The New Basic Back Wax


As part of my male waxing service my most popular male body waxing treatment is the men’s back wax.

Within this I provide a range of back waxing options; a full back wax is generally the most popular and this includes the full back, shoulders, neck and the hair on the top of the arms.

Some guys book an upper or a lower back wax at times and this is generally an add on waxing treatment when clients are having a chest wax etc.

I have a few clients who really only need a basic male back wax treatment, which means that they don’t need any hair removed from the shoulders, arms or the neck.

As I offer a flexible tariff with all my more popular male waxing treatments I have now added a Male Basic Back Wax to my treatment list, it is priced at £25.00 and will include the upper and lower back only, any clients that require the other parts of the back waxed should book the full back wax.

All the back waxing options and prices are all listed on my website

Why a Flexible Pricing Tariff Works Better For Male Waxing Treatments

Why a Flexible Pricing Tariff Works Better For Male Waxing Treatments




As a therapist I see many clients for male waxing treatments and these clients are a variety of shapes, sizes, some male clients have a little bit of hair to be removed and for some, it’s a bit like a forest!!.. Also there are those clients that maintain their hair removal treatment on a regular programme so it’s finer hair follicles and much easier and quicker to remove.

In my opinion I find that one price does not fit all and that having a flexible pricing tariff offers male waxing clients a better value for money. More hair removal often equals more products and more preparation time and less hair equals fewer products and less time so for me it makes sense to reflect this in your price list.

On my most popular male waxing treatments, this approach seems to work and I find that clients are generally much happier with this than having a fixed price tariff. There are salons and therapists that agree with this pricing structure and there are some that don’t. With a fixed pricing tariff, from the therapists point it probably balances out, using more product and time on some and less on others.

With the flexible pricing tariff it allows you to offer a more bespoke waxing service. For example, male back waxing is often one of the most popular male grooming treatments and a lot of therapists now offer clients several options. I offer a range of male back waxing options. My full back wax allows clients to include their neck hair, shoulders the front as well as the back and tops of the arms. The hair can be blended to create a more natural line. With the flexible tariff they may ask for hair to be removed to the elbow, or may require some hair removed from the front of the neck, so the flexibility allows for me to provide the service they want and to charge them accordingly.

I am extending my range of back waxing treatments to include a basic back wax and this will be for those clients who only require the upper and lower back wax and who don’t want any hair removed from the neck arms shoulders etc, so they only pay for a basic back wax. This will be added onto my price list shortly.

When a new client books a male waxing appointment, I confirm the booking but state that the flexible tariff will apply, and once I have carried out the consultation with the client and agreed exactly what is to be included, the amount of hair and preparation involved then I will confirm the actual cost.

The other benefit of course is that clients know that they will not be charged above a certain amount, so they can arrive in the knowledge that their treatment will not exceed the upper price limit quoted for that particular treatment. On average most clients fall into the lower to middle price range with only a very few clients hitting the higher price.


My full back wax treatment is charged between £30-40 , and my new basic back wax will be offered at £25.00 . Details of my back waxes ( and all my othe popular male waxing treatments) are all listed on my website.

Male Hair Removal Treatments And What May Work Best



When a man would like to seek help for unwanted follicles, there are several things that can be tried. Male hair removal treatments could include a few different treatment options. There is laser removal, waxing and sugaring and electrolysis. These procedures may each have their own advantages to using them. A guy who has too much hair on the face, neck, chest or back, may choose to take care of it on a regular basis. Professional procedures at clinics and salons can assist a person with their excessive issue and help them appear furry free in all the right areas.



Laser procedures involve placing a beam of light at the follicle. Over time, the laser beam ends up killing the root. This treatment is effective, however can get costly running a client into the hundreds of pounds. A few sessions may be needed before results are seen for good. The laser works great on certain skin pigmentation and hair color only. The laser could be painful and may change the color of skin if the client has a tanned appearance.



Electrolysis is a form of removal that involves a needle. The needle is used to zap each strand and remove it. The zap feeling could hurt and the procedure may take a while. The length of each session and the number of sessions needed, could cause someone to require many painful sessions.



Waxing is the process of placing a hot wax over the hairy area. Using a cloth or paper strip, the therapist will place the strip onto the hot wax and press firmly down. Once the strip has covered the entire area of wax, the strip is pulled in the opposite direction of growth to remove the hair and the root.



When someone chooses waxing over other procedures there are some good reasons. This method does not have to be done all the time, each session will result in weeks of smooth and hairless skin. With each appointment the hair becomes weaker and less noticeable over time.



There are also no side effects with the wax on the skin. A person will have a slight reddish appearance in the area for a few minutes, but with creams and lotions the redness disappears quickly.



Sugaring involves the same process as waxing, only instead of wax, there is a sugar paste that is used. Some people may find that the wax can pin point easier than the sugar base. The more accurate that the strips can be when taking up strands and roots, the less times it will have to be done.



Male hair removal treatments can come in many forms and types. A person may try a few different kinds of methods before they decide on which one they like the best. It is always a good idea to research each idea first to see if the skin and hair color make a good candidate for the procedure. Looking into side effects could also be a great plan. Waxing is a procedure that removes all of the growth leaving a smooth and glowing appearance. The results of waxing are long lasting and will not cause damage to the skin.
