Back, sack and crack waxing and what's included in the treatment

The classic back sack and crack wax, which is more commonly referred to as the BSC wax generally only included the small of the back (the patch above the sacrum), the butt crack and the penis and scrotum wax.

However some therapists/ salons that offer the back sack and crack wax often include a full back wax and also the butt cheeks.

As with all male intimate waxing treatments the names vary and also what’s included in each treatment may vary so it’s always worth checking that the male intimate waxing treatment you book is the one that you require.

I find that the back sack and crack wax is often a popular choice for my male waxing clients. My BSC includes a full back and shoulder wax combined with the choice of a male Brazilian or a male Hollywood waxing treatment.

I have given all my male intimate waxing treatments their own unique name and on my website if you hold the mouse on the treatment name a window will open which will clearly explain what’s included in each treatment and also the method of waxing that will be used for each particular treatment.
Previously I found that clients would often book in for a BSC wax and when they arrived for their appointment they actually did not require a back wax they just referred to a BSC wax as a general term for a male intimate waxing treatment.

The BSC waxing treatment is called an “Essex Road “ wax and the price is slightly cheaper when booked as a combined treatment than if you booked a back and shoulder wax and a male Brazilian wax or a male Hollywood wax.

So if its a sack and crack wax, a male Brazilian wax or just the bikini line check out our male intimate waxing price list we offer an extensive range of male waxing options and you should find a treatment that suits.

The waxing procedure is very easy and straightforward when carrying out any of the male intimate waxing treatments; you will be required to get on all fours to have the inside of the butt waxed to ensure the area is completely hair free. Non strip waxes and excellent waxing techniques ensure a more comfortable intimate waxing treatment. I specialise in male Brazilian waxing treatments so you are guaranteed an efficient , comfortable and professional male waxing treatment.

As with all male intimate waxing treatments if clients follow the male waxing aftercare guidelines then the skin will settle down quickly and the aftercare will help clients manage to keep skin clean, smooth and to avoid any breakout or possible ingrown hairs.

Easy Nostril Waxing As Part of Your Male Grooming - Free for all new clients!

Nostril waxing for men is a very popular male grooming treatment and you will be surprised just how much hair that a little blob of wax can remove...

Often new clients think that it’s going to be a very painful procedure but it’s so much more comfortable than plucking a few nasal hairs with a pair of tweezers. If you tweeze one hair it’s really quite uncomfortable but when you wax and remove all these hairs in one go its fairly painless.

We apply a little drop of jasmine oil to the nostril this creates a lipid barrier to ensure the process is more comfortable then a small amount of non strip/ hot wax is applied to the base of the nostril and scraped across to create a little handle. As the wax sets we press your nostril together so that the wax grips all sides and all of the hairs are embedded in the wax.

Please note that we don’t push wax up into the nostrils or we don’t leave any spatulas inside the nostrils, the hairs up inside the nostril are there for a purpose and we are only removing the unsightly hairs at the base and not any of the other nostril hair.

We have a face waxing package that includes a nostril wax, ear waxing and a brow wax tidy up , this is a very popular male grooming treatment and it’s amazing how removing these hairs and tidying up bushy brows can take a few years off and leave you looking fresh and groomed!

As part of our new client package we offer the choice of a free nostril wax or an ear waxing treatment.

Give it a try you will be surprised how clean and tidy you feel afterwards and how easy it is to wax.

How to treat ingrown hairs after waxing

For most of us we have at some point had an ingrown hair and unfortunately some people can suffer really badly with these.   An ingrown hair is when the new hair curls back on itself and starts to grow  back into the hair follicle, or a hair that does not grow out of the hair follicle and actually remains embedded in the skin.

Ingrown hairs can affect most areas; the face, neck, legs, intimate areas or in fact any part of the body.

In most situations they are usually just a minor irritation on the skin, but if they are left untreated they can be very painful or unsightly. More importantly if they are not dealt with then they can become infected.

Unfortunately, while ingrown hair is more common with people having thick, curly hair, almost everybody will get one at some point and if you shave regularly, you may have to deal with ingrown hairs and razor bump quite frequently. 

Some clients who wax can also experience ingrown hairs and it is important to treat these properly and do as much as you can to prevent them. Often areas like the chest and pubic areas can be more prone to ingrown hairs if aftercare guidelines are not followed correctly. 

There are several ways that you can treat ingrown hairs and if you suffer with these one if these methods may help to treat the ingrown hairs.

1. Gentle exfoliation – Gently really is the name of the game here. I recommend that you use either a gentle exfoliation cream or a scrub product directly on the skin, or you can use an exfoliating wash cloth or a pair of mitts with an anti bacterial skin wash. I do find a loofah too rough on the skin. Exfoliate twice a day in the shower and if you are exfoliating gently enough you should be able to just “nudge “the hair so that it can release itself. Be careful not to exfoliate too roughly as you don’t want to break and cut the skin as this will cause scabs to form and this will make it really difficult then for the hair to get through the skin.  I find that the Bit of Rough exfoliating washcloth is perfect as its gentle on the skin but just rough enough to left the dead skin cells.

 

2. Applying an ingrown hair product -There are many products available on the market for the treatment of ingrown hairs and if you research on the internet you can see which ones are available and often read reviews for these. Also most therapists who offer waxing will often retail or recommend a product that can be used for the treatment of ingrown hairs. Products containing Salicylic acid are often the best and can be applied to the skin a few times a day for the recommended period; also the Salicylic acid will soothe the inflammation.  If you combine this with gentle exfoliation and keeping the skin as clean as possible then should help to remove the ingrown hairs. Some clients have found that the application of Magnesium Sulphate and left overnight has also helped to lift the hair out of the skin.

 

3. Teasing out the hair – If you managed to get the ingrown hair to the surface then you should be able to get it out. Take a warm flannel or some cotton pads with hot water and press them on the skin and the heat will gently soften the skin. You will need to do this several times and apply the compress with hot water. This will bring the hair to the surface and now you should be able to actually tease the hair out of the skin. Use a pair of clean sterile tweezers that will lift the hair. Take care that you don’t break the skin and remove the hair with the tweezers in the direction of growth taking care not to snap or cut the hair. Keep the skin clean and a little medicated cream applied to the area will soothe and treat the skin surrounding the hair.

With all these things prevention is so much better than cure , so follow the waxing aftercare guidelines and for most people this help to avoid ingrown hairs from developing.
