Lemon Myrtle body lotion for male waxing aftercare

As part of our male waxing aftercare we retail a range of skincare products that are suitable for using on your skin after your waxing treatment and to assist you in keeping your freshly waxed skin clean , soft and spot free.

We also offer recommendations for products that you can either buy on the high street or order on line.

For your male waxing aftercare we recommend that you try Australia's 'new' indigenous Lemon Myrtle.

It's the new Tea Tree – and it smells delicious!

It’s a really nice creamy body lotion that is rich and soothing which makes it suitable for post waxing aftercare. It contains lemon myrtle, macadamia nut oil, Shea butter and sweet almond oil.

Suitable for use for the whole body and especially good for sensitive areas so great after male Brazilian waxing and underarms and the chest, in fact its suitable for use on the whole body.

Refreshed guarantee that all their skincare products are made from the finest botanical and highest quality naturally derived ingredients. As well as the Lemon Myrtle body lotion they also retail other skincare products in the same range.

New Male Grooming Treatments


I have recently discovered a really fantastic skincare range that I am going to add to my treatments over the next few months.

It’s the Eve Taylor aromatherapy skin care range which is a professional skincare brand that is paraben free and using only natural aromatherapy products and the best range of plant essences.  Eve Taylor has over four decades of skincare experience so you can be sure that your skin will get the best quality product range.

I shall be using the Eve Taylor pre blended  massage oils for all my aromatherapy massage treatments and as part of my Signature massage treatment I shall be using the Eve Taylor candles and the warm Soya wax can be massaged directly onto the body and I shall include this within my reflex massage. The warm massage oil combined with the aroma of the burning candle creates a really relaxing aromatherapy treatment.

 I shall also be offering the range as part of my facial treatments that I provide within my male grooming service at the moment I provide a basic range of facial treatments but I shall soon be providing a selection of Mechanical facial treatments including Galvanic facials and a range of others. Details of the new range will follow shortly with details of the promotion to introduce the range to my service. Like all skincare ranges there is a product that suits all skin types and a range of suitable face masks to offer the best possible treatment and to achieve the best results for the various skin types.

The Eve Taylor range will also be used as part of my men’s spa treatments with a great new salt and seaweed body scrub being added to the treatments.

I am currently rebranding my website with new logo and streamlining all the websites into one site offering all the treatments and also there will be a blog page that will be focusing only on male waxing aftercare so hopefully this will be helpful for new clients to refer to for tips on how to maintain their skin after waxing.

Male Waxing In London - Summer Chest Waxing


Male waxing in London  

Chest Waxing for the summer – What’s included within your Treatment



With more and more guys following the trend to wax their chests either  as a pre holiday wax treatment or as part of a regular male grooming regime I want to explain the chest waxing treatment, offer some good practice pre and aftercare guidelines and look at some of the best ways to avoid a break out...

Chest hair is generally fairly deep rooted hair, close to the heart so nice strong hair follicles with a rich blood supply, and often seen as a more uncomfortable male waxing treatment as opposed to the back waxing or other men’s body areas.

It’s not uncommon for virgin waxers to have an initial reaction after their first chest wax, with small bumps and redness, this can be normal for a lot of guys, and generally within a few days the chest settles down again. I find that clients who take anti histamine, for a day before their waxing and a few days after seem to manage the reaction a lot better. I have a lot of clients who wax their chests and a lot of these clients find that the anti histamine has helped.

I generally trim longer chest hair first before I begin any waxing, and then cleanse the skin before applying a small amount of pre waxing oil, the oil allows the wax to cling to the hair and not to the skin, and makes the hair removal on the chest so much more comfortable.

For most of my chest waxing treatments I use two waxing methods, I apply non strip waxes on certain areas, and then I also use strip waxes on other parts. I find that some parts of the chest can be more sensitive so the non strip waxes work better in those parts.

The strip wax used is a hypoallergenic wax so this will minimise the reaction on the skin. I never use a roller waxing method on this area, as I find that it can drag and can be slightly uncomfortable for the clients ( in my opinion I find that for male waxing roller systems work best on the legs and on the back only).

At the end of a chest wax, after I have used Jasmine oil and cleansers, I then apply a mixture of a refreshing aloe Vera gel mixed with some tea tree after waxing moisturiser to soothe the chest area.

As with all waxing procedures clients need to avoid touching the area and to keep the skin clean and cool. If clients are coming straight from work to their appointment it’s often best if they can bring a clean cotton loose fitting t-shirt to change into at the end of the treatment.

Aftercare guidelines really do need to be followed, and during the treatment I will discuss these in detail with the client, and I will follow this up with an aftercare pack, which also includes written after care notes.

If guys follow the aftercare guidelines they generally can manage to keep the skin smooth and can generally avoid a break out in this area.

I retail several products that can assist with the maintenance programme and I can also often recommend alternatives that can be purchased on the high street. Often with male waxing, for the chest and for any part of the body, if you follow the basic aftercare guidelines, keeping skin clean , cool , and then following an exfoliation programme you can keep the skin clear, smooth and looking good...

Male Waxing London - Waxing Procedures & Product Range


Male Waxing London  – Treatment Procedures & Waxing Product Range

Male waxing London is one of the most popular men’s grooming treatments.

At Jack Dunn Male Grooming Studio our aim is to offer one of the best male waxing services in London using excellent quality products, professional protocols, whilst offering a value for money treatment list....

To achieve our goal we use the best wax on the market to offer you the best in client comfort and one of the best waxing experiences. New generation waxes offer superior waxing treatments.

I offer two waxing methods; strip waxing and non strip waxes and I also use a range of the hypoallergenic waxes to ensure the most comfortable male waxing treatment for clients with sensitive skin types.

I use non strip waxing methods for the sensitive areas and intimate waxing treatments including; ears, nostrils, neck, brows, underarms, and also for all my male intimate waxing treatments. Male intimate waxing treatments should only be carried out using non strip wax as other waxing methods can be very uncomfortable in these sensitive areas. Some clients prefer non strip wax (also known as hot wax) for back and chest waxing treatments and we have also included this within the treatment list as an option.

I offer a men’s full body waxing service, from the popular male back wax to the intimate male Brazilian waxing and everything in between and to make the booking process really easy we have given each of these waxing treatments a name and a description of what’s included so you can book the correct intimate waxing treatment.

For full body waxing just use our treatment list and decide which areas you want to book and email us with your list of areas that you wish to include (some clients exclude certain areas so this way you only pay for the waxing you require). For clients that book a full body wax that includes everything from the brows to the toes we provide a free luxury aftercare pack which includes A Bit of Rough wash cloth, tea tree skin wash and a after wax body moisturiser.

Male intimate waxing is known by many terms including; male Brazilian waxing, male Hollywood waxing, Boyzilian, BSC waxing (back, sack and crack waxing) and every salon or therapist often use various names so it often becomes very confusing for clients. All my male intimate waxing treatments have a unique name so booking your treatment will be really easy.

As no two guys have the same amount of hair on areas like the back or the chest and I believe a range of treatment options offers the best value for money. So I offer a range of back waxing options so you can include as much or as little hair removal.

Clients will be required to complete a confidential consultation form on arrival, and your waxing treatment procedure will be explained in detail. At the end of the first waxing treatment, all new clients will be given a free male waxing aftercare pack, which will include written aftercare guidelines, a disposable exfoliating mitt, and some suitable aftercare cream.

We also retail a range of post waxing skincare products to assist you with your male grooming and maintenance/ waxing aftercare, these products can be purchased here at the studio.

Gift vouchers are also available to purchase.

A BIT OF ROUGH.com - Japanese Style Exfoliating Wash Cloth


When it comes to body exfoliation we often need a product that has a bit of roughness to achieve lovely smooth soft skin and the BIT OF ROUGH wash cloth does just that!

These exfoliating wash cloths are made up of a mix of fibres that are gentle enough to use on your face and robust enough to exfoliate your whole body, removes dead skin cells and leaves your skin glowing, soft and smooth.

 It’s really easy to use your wash cloth and there is no need for any chemicals or expensive exfoliating creams - simply use with your favourite skin care brand or product to achieve a really effective exfoliation.

If it’s a pre holiday body scrub, a post waxing exfoliation or removing the remains of that old spray tan then the BIG OF ROUGH wash cloth is the perfect choice.

The wash cloth is a cream coloured exfoliating cloth approximate 100cm x 30cm, large enough to reach the back and to exfoliate the whole body. Just rinse out after use and it dries really quickly and they are machine washable so you can wash it as often as you wish. Each  A Bit Of Rough.com wash cloth is rolled and tied with black raffia and presented in a black organza bag, so it’s the perfect gift for yourself or for your own bit of rough!!

With just a little shower gel you get a really rich lather and will make each shower experience a total pampering session. So if you want to experience the Japanese spa style body ritual in the comfort of your own bathroom then try the BIT OF ROUGH wash cloth to see how amazingly soft and clean your skin will feel.
