We often get new clients who are “Virgin Waxers” coming to us for their first male waxing treatment, which is great but often these guys have been previously removing their body hair at home using other methods like shaving, trimming or hair removal creams such as Veet.
To enable us to give you the best waxing service and to effectively remove the body hair completely then you need to ensure that it’s long enough in the first place.
Ideally it should be 5/6 mm in length so that the wax can grip the hairs enough to remove it from the root. Trying to remove body hair that’s too short is generally much more uncomfortable and will often result in snapped hairs which will give a prickly regrowth within a few days. If you can’t measure it visualise a grain of long grain rice!
So it pays to be a bit patient and allow enough time between the hair removal episodes to get the best results.
Allow a four week gap if you have been shaving the area or using hair removal creams and allow at least three weeks between waxing (ideally we prefer a 4-5 week gap between waxing appointments).
During the summer months we have seen lots of new clients, which is absolutely great, for back waxing treatments who have been turning up with a week’s hair growth and expecting a smooth clean wax, this is usually not possible. So it really is a case of allowing enough time for the hair to grow back to a length that’s suitable. Body hair that has repeatedly been shaved is generally coarse and very strong so trying to wax this when its short will be very uncomfortable especially if it’s for a male intimate wax treatment such as a male Brazilian wax or a male Hollywood wax and of course if this your first introduction to waxing to will probably think that waxing is too painful and you will run back to the razor!
Back waxing, chest waxing and male Brazilian waxing are the most popular treatments we provide and if the hair is the correct length we can offer a good fairly painless waxing treatment, using the best waxes on the market and using good waxing techniques.
Our approach to waxing is simple; its wax on and then waxed off using the best products available. We are male waxing experts and provide a range of male grooming treatments.
