Male Brazilian Waxing Treatments

Male Brazilian Waxing Treatments

Male Brazilian Waxing in  London with Male Therapists

Often most male waxing clients never know the difference in  male Brazilian waxing, male Hollywood waxing  or the classic back,sack and crack  wax (bsc wax),  so to avoid any confusion and to make it much easier for you to book the correct treatment we have given each of our male intimate waxing treatments their own unique name. See our male waxing FAQ'S for more information. 

As a male intimate waxing specialist we only use Perron Rigot non strip wax for all our male Brazilian waxing treatments and we do not use any strips or  wax rollers on these areas as both strip waxing and roller wax systems are very uncomfortable when used for male intimate waxing.

Our policy for the male Brazilian waxing treatments is simple; a professional male intimate waxing treatment carried out using the best quality non strip waxes, with minimal discomfort , with good quality aftercare advice for all clients and to remove every hair every time!

The most popular male intimate waxing treatment is The Islington Wax which is more commonly known as a male Brazilian wax. Male waxing in London with male therapists.

About Jack Dunn Male Grooming

Jack Dunn – Male Brazilian Waxing Expert - Islington London N1

 

A background in the luxury spa industry and a passion for innovation and discovery are the main factors which brought me to where I am today. With a thriving studio for men and a growing list of products and therapies, I have an overwhelming desire to provide for the needs of men in a world which was previously that of women only.

The fact is that men deserve to pamper themselves, look their best and feel the energy, creativity and confidence which comes from being well groomed. From my early days as a massage therapist and during my four years working in Crete at one of the top luxury spa's in the world, I knew that providing a similar experience for men only was where my true passions were. I decided that focusing primarily on male waxing was going to be my niche.

Building on my training with the ubiquitous Kim Lawless, I was able to use her unique male intimate waxing technique which works specifically for men and their needs. My expertise in male Brazilian waxing and  intimate waxing for men has set me apart from my peers. More specifically, I am an ambassador for Perron Rigot and I only use non-strip waxing methods with Perron Rigot, the best waxes on offer – this means less pain and a better outcome.  The other male grooming therapies I have on offer along with my colleagues at my Islington studio include massage, body scrubs and Manscaping (body hair trimming).

As someone with a true passion for my craft, I have also developed a range of wash cloths designed to exfoliate the body following wax treatments. These cloths can be found at www.abitofrough.com. This product compliments my main business and is hopefully just the start of the products I will have on offer in time.

I believe that men deserve the same access to spa treatments that women have been enjoying for many years. I provide the same luxury feel with attention to detail and an environment where men feel comfortable regardless of the treatment they are receiving. It is my mission to encourage today's men to look after their looks with a range of male grooming treatments and for this to become as much a part of their body routine as going to the gym.

Pre waxing advice - getting the most from your male waxing treatment


Whilst male waxing aftercare has always been something I am very passionate about and I always offer all my clients the best possible aftercare advice; both verbal instructions during the appointment and written guidelines to take away but also access to suitable skin care products that should help to maintain the skin after waxing and help to reduce any irritation or reaction and ultimately to avoid ingrown hairs.

So it makes sense to offer pre waxing advice to new clients and more importantly the wax virgins!!

Unlike our female counterparts we often don’t know very much about the preparation before we carry out a waxing treatment or the general do and don’t prior to having a male waxing treatment.

Of course some clients are great and they go off research and read articles and advice that other therapists and salons offer but some guys don’t and they turn up with hair that’s been shaved or removed using a hair removal cream fairly recently or turn up for a full body wax the day before a holiday in the sun... so heres hoping that some of my new clients will find this pre waxing information is as useful as the male waxing aftercare guidelines that we provide.

1.       Plan in advance; if you are intending to go off on a beach holiday, or you are getting married and off on a luxury honeymoon, or you are running the London marathon the next day then you need to allow enough time for your skin to settle before you do anything that can potentially cause irritation to the freshly waxed skin like excess sweat, heat, sun.. So book in advance!

 

2.       Make sure that waxing works for you... If you are planning an important occasion and you want to look like the smoothest peach on the beach, I recommend that you try out a waxing treatment in advance so that you can see how it goes and how well you cope with your aftercare and if you do get any reaction on the skin then its best to have enough time to follow your aftercare. Ideally book your first waxing appointment that allows you enough time for the hair regrowth to be sufficient for removal again (5-6 weeks later) and the second appointment should be booked a few days before the big event so it’s all settled and you are ready to go.

 

3.       Step away from Mr Bic razor or the can of Veet!.. If you have been using hair removal creams or if you have been shaving then please allow at LEAST four weeks between this and having your waxing treatment. I speak from experience... It really hurts!!.  I get lots of new clients that arrive for their first waxing appointment and sometimes they have had a shave within a few weeks or even days. Shaved hair is much stronger and when waxed if it’s still quite short its quite painful and in a lot of cases you don’t get a smooth waxing treatment when you have been shaving and it can take a few waxes to get it all back on track and get a nice smooth finish, so all in all it pays to wait until it’s all grown through properly. If it’s your first male intimatewaxing treatment and you have shaved the hair in this area within a short period of time then it’s more than likely to be very uncomfortable and you will leave thinking that’s what waxing is like when the fact is that it’s not the case. A good experienced waxing therapist will cause a little discomfort but not pain!

 

4.       If you are a gym bunny or you do lots of sports, running, jogging  or regular swimming in chlorinated pools then you will need to plan so that you do all these activities prior to your waxing as we strongly recommend that you avoid doing these sports or anything that will cause excess sweat on the skin just after your waxing. Sweat and freshly waxed skin are never a good combination so do as much as you can to keep clean, dry and cool after your male waxing treatments.  We advice that you take a 48 hour break after your first wax and then see how your skin has settled before you return to your routine. I have seen too many clients that have had bad reactions because they ignored this advice so please plan sensibly.

 

5.       Exfoliate!... As well as exfoliating after your male waxing treatment we strongly recommend that clients exfoliate prior to your waxing. It’s great for getting rid of dead skin cells and it will also help to “lift” the hairs so this will make the waxing treatment easier and much more comfortable for you. I retail my own exfoliating wash cloth A Bit of Rough, we sell these as a retail item as part of our male waxing aftercare and you can also order online at www.abitofrough.com . Whichever methods you prefer just gently exfoliate a few times leading up to your waxing appointment.

 

6.       On the day!!... Okay I find that drinking too much caffeine can make a difference and it seems to heighten your sensitivity. I have discussed this with lots of regular clients that drink lots of caffeine drinks and they have made a change to their habits and most have noticed the difference so that’s one option.  If you have very sensitive skin some clients have benefited from taking anti histamine which can help the skin settle after waxing and by having taken it prior to your appointment it can minimise the reaction on the skin. I do need to state that I am not able to administer any medication and you should check with your GP or pharmacist that it’s okay for you to take these. Arrive on time , If it’s your first ever waxing appointment you may feel slightly nervous and rushing for an appointment may result in hot sweaty skin so arrive on time and your skin will be like yourself cool and calm!.Finally I recommend that clients bring a clean item of loose clothing to wear after your waxing, either a clean cotton t shirt, loose boxer shorts etc, just allow the skin to remain cool after your male waxing treatment .
I am a very experienced male waxing therapist, I was trained by Kim Lawless  who is the best waxing trainer in the business , I am an ambassador for Perron Rigot which is the only wax brand that we use for all our clients and I am an expert waxer and specialise in male intimate waxing treatments

Interesting Facts about Dead Sea Salt


Interesting Facts about Dead Sea Salt

The Dead Sea has a long and amazing history. In fact, this body of water has been around for about three million years. That is a long time for many minerals and other potent, health inducing ingredients to become a part of this water. Learning more about the benefits of Dead Sea salt is important and allows you greater chances of being healthier and younger looking.

Salts for bathing are sold all around the world. Making the right choices for a brand is essential to you getting the real benefits of this famous sea. Many brands are no more than table salt and produce no benefits. Learning more about the source of your salts is necessary for gaining its benefits. Bear in mind that Dead Sea salt is bitterer than regular table salt.

The mineral content in real sea salts provides many benefits, especially when it comes to looking younger. In fact, in ancient times, Cleopatra took special interest in the area surrounding this body of water. She had cosmetic factories built along the shores to make sure the ingredients being used were from the real water. 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 surface of the skin is provided with anti allergic elements as well from magnesium. The process of cell metabolism is also related to magnesium. 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. The nutrients the cells in your body require are essential and cells must have a constant level of moisture to maintain healthy functioning, allowing nutrient absorption to be the greatest.

You have most likely heard about the benefits of calcium. You should know that calcium is also required for cell membranes to have strength and durability. The cells in your body must have protective shells to resist disease and other issues that could affect them. Taking care of your skin with salts will promote the absorption of calcium. Your teeth and bones will also benefit greatly from this type of calcium absorption as well.

Several body functions depend on a healthy functioning thyroid gland. Your thyroid gland needs iodine in order to function in the healthiest manner. Choosing the right salts means you getting enough iodine for proper functioning to take place. You can also add iodine to your diet for increased benefits. The amount of sodium you need is necessary for nutrient retention in the cells.

Zinc and sulphur are more minerals that offer great benefits for your body. These minerals are also found in high content in the Dead Sea. Zinc protects the skin and provides an incredible boost for the immune system as well. Cell proliferation occurs properly when your body has the right levels of zinc. Sulphur helps your liver function properly in dispelling toxins from your system.

Relief for some conditions has been found by soaking in this body of water. Sufferers of arthritis should certainly consider the benefits of hot salts baths for pain relief. The treatment of several bone and muscle issues include hot bath with mineral salts added to the water for good reasons. The absorption of vital minerals is necessary for the ultimate and complete healing of damaged muscle tissue.

If your bones are not strong throughout young adulthood and into your forties, you could be looking at several breaks and fractions after you get into your late fifties. Taking care to provide the right amounts of calcium is essential to you maintaining strong bones. Soaking hot salts can allow you greater calcium absorption for stronger bones. This is the greatest reason you should make sure your brand of salts in genuine and that the ingredients do come from the actual Dead Sea.

Taking advantage of Dead Sea salts benefits is a good way to better health fast. Taking time to learn more about the minerals your body needs is also an important consideration. Research the way these salts can benefit your health.
