Millions of people have visited this water for soaking and retaining the minerals through the pores of the skin.

One mineral that helps improve the skin you will find in this famous body of water is magnesium. Magnesium increases the time it takes for skin tissue to heal.

The younger healthy skin you want is easier to have when you provide the right ingredients for it to function properly.

Potassium and bromide are two more minerals your skin requires to be its best. Bromide works to relax muscular tissue and calms down nerves while potassium is responsible for the fine balance of moisture being maintained in the skin cell structure. Potassium is the reason too much water is not retained in the cells as well.

Male Intimate Waxing - The Back , sack and crack wax (bsc wax) explained


Okay so you have decided to have your first male intimate waxing treatment. For a lot of guys that have been shaving or using hair removal creams to remove the hair in the nether regions then the thing to bear in mind is that male intimate waxing is nothing like these methods and once you have tried waxing you will never go back to these other methods.

To begin with you need to think about which areas that you want to wax and then choose the appropriate male intimate waxing treatment that covers this area. So if it’s your butt, scrotum, penis, butt cheeks or pubic hair or all of these areas then there is a treatment that covers it!

So if you have been removing the hair in these areas with alternative hair removal methods then we recommend that you have at least a 4 week gap between this and your first waxing treatment; it will be much easier for the therapist to remove all the hair, much more comfortable for you and a better chance to remove all the hairs to achieve a good result for your first appointment. The other side of the coin is the hairy monster where no hair has ever been removed and the intimate areas are covered in a mass of long thick hair. Then trimming the hair prior to the appointment will be much easier for your comfort. For an efficient wax ideally hair should be 5/6 mm in length so leave hair slightly longer so the therapist has enough hair growth to work with.

Arrive clean and freshly showered prior to your appointment. Intimate wipes will be provided to offer you the chance to freshen up before the waxing treatment.

Following consultation and having your treatment process explained the waxing will commence!

So depending on which treatment you decide upon you will be asked to get into position. If the male intimate waxing treatment includes the butt cheeks or butt crack then we start on the back so you will be required to get up on your knees so the butt area can be waxed. This is the best way to remove all the hair in this area and to get best access to get the job done correctly and leave you hair free.

For the front areas the techniques used for all the male intimate waxing treatments do not require the client to stretch the skin or to participate in any way with the treatment; just relax and leave the waxing to your expert!

We only use the best quality wax; Perron Rigot for all our treatments. For the intimate waxing treatments we only apply a non strip wax which offers better precision, more client comfort and great results with minimal discomfort.

After the waxing we immediately apply soothing jasmine oil which will remove any bits of residual wax, before applying a cool blue lotion to remove the oils and finally we will apply a post waxing product, depending on the skin type we will either use a refreshing gel or moisturising milk.

Aftercare is so important and we offer extensive aftercare advice for all clients and on our blog we have lots of useful male waxing aftercare advice for our clients and we will provide a free aftercare pack for all our clients as well as the opportunity to retail our range of post waxing skincare as well as our own exfoliating wash cloth A Bit of Rough.

To make booking easy we have applied discrete names of local areas around our neighbourhood for all our male intimate waxing treatments so that you can book from the comfort of your shared office or whilst walking up the high street!

So for clarification here are the names and their more commonly known translation:

·         The Islington – a male Brazilian wax

·         The Angel – a male Hollywood wax

·         The Green- sack and crack wax

·         Essex Road – a male back and butt wax

·         Cross Street – a male chest, sack and crack wax

·         Upper Street – a back sack and wax (bsc wax)

·         Arsenal – a male butt wax

·         Holloway Road – male crack wax

Your health plays a huge role in how good you look and well you feel. If you are generally unhealthy, your outer appearance generally shows it. Learning how to remain as healthy as possible is best to look and feel great from the inside out. Taking the time to learn about the simple things that you can do every day will enhance your efforts for male grooming.

The foods you eat are very important, especially to your skin. You may be surprised to know how much action is going on in your skin cell structure every minute of the day.

Drinking plenty of water is another important aspect of your appearance. Maintaining healthy levels of cell hydration is necessary for you to not only look good, but to also feel energized and happy. If the cells in your body are struggling because of dehydration then it’s clear that they are not going to be able to produce enough energy for your body to function normally. Take care to drink water every day for ensuring complete cell hydration.

Rest is another essential requirement for you to both look and feel good. Getting enough sleep in today’s society can be a challenging aspect of male grooming. Making certain you get into bed every evening around the same time can do wonders for your health. Your body will use the down time to make repairs and get ready for the next day. Without enough sleep, your system spends the time during the day grinding to a halt due to simply being over worked and tired. Avoiding fatigue should start with a good night’s sleep every night.

Exercising regularly is another way you can promote good health. Keeping tone and fit can also allow you to look like you want as well. Working out on a regular schedule has many benefits related to how you look and feel. Consider the importance of being mentally healthy. By exercising every day, you can have a clearer mind and be able to focus on those things you find most important.

Taking care of personal hygiene is necessary to look good and to feel good about you. If you wake up each day without washing your face or brushing your teeth, think about how you feel by the middle of the day. Taking the time to learn about your skin type and how best to care for it is important. Choose products that do not contain a lot of unnecessary chemicals and learn more about how to use them on a  daily basis. Bear in mind that moisturizing your skin is most important to how young you look. Several brands of moisturizer are available for men that smell good and are not feminine in any way and most brands offer a line that is geared to the male grooming market.

Your hands are part of the external you. Taking the time to make sure your nails look neat and clean is necessary to promote a good look. Clean cut and shaven go a long way when your nails are neat as well. Keep your nails trimmed and filed to prevent less dirt from getting underneath them. Always take the time to moisturize your hands also. The same is also true for your toenails and feet especially in the summer when you are often wearing open footwear.

Your teeth make a huge difference in how you look. You should know also that healthy teeth promote your total well being as well. If you do not brush your teeth regularly and you have issues with cavities or gum disease, your heart and kidneys could be affected by it. Keep up with regularly scheduled dentist appointments and make sure you take care of your oral health every day.

Monitoring the amount of stress in your life is the key to your good health and to the success you experience in your endeavours. The time you take for you is vital for alleviating too much stress. Making a conscious choice to avoid stress is necessary for truly avoiding the side effects caused by it. Learn more about massage therapy or spa treatments for losing too much stress as well. Keep in mind the effects your regular exercise program has for getting rid of stress also.

The way you take care of your body determines many parts of your life. Making the most of life means you feeling healthy enough to do so. Looking good is important as well to maintain high self esteem. The happiest and most well balanced men are the ones that take male grooming seriously.
