I’ve never been one to mince my words, and this is not the place to start! If you’ve landed here on this page, it’s probably because you’re curious about having your own pubic hair removed, curious about what it involves, or just plain nosey? Either way, you’re welcome!
I am an experienced waxer; qualified in advanced waxing techniques and fully insured. I use the very best waxes from Ashmira Botanica to make the experience as comfortable as possible without compromising on the result you want.
You may be familiar with the terms Back, sac & crack, Boyzillian, Hollywood. What does it all mean? These are terms commonly used to describe the “look” you require after you’ve had some (or all) of your pubic hair removed. I keep it simple here and a description using proper anatomical terms is on the price list below. It may not have escaped your notice that there is not a male and female price list. Your gender is not relevant, but your anatomy is. I need to ensure I allow enough time for each service, which is the only reason I need to know what body parts you have.
It’s not all below the belt though, folks; Facial and body waxing is offered with favourable prices for multiple areas. Why not consider a nostril wax or brow tidy while you’re here?
I prefer to use the term “specialist” waxing for any services removing hair from the anus, perineum, buttocks, labia, scrotus, and penis. I avoid using the term “intimate” waxing, as there is nothing remotely intimate about it! If you want to know more about the “specialist” waxing service I offer, read on….. Or simply download the price list at the bottom of this page.
So what happens?
Consultation – This process will be started prior to your first visit. Simply disclose any medical conditions, allergies, skin disorders or medications at the time of booking. Nothing is too minor. Please just mention it. Some medical conditions, allergies, medications and topical lotions can mean that I am unable to go ahead with your appointment or you will not get the best results. You will be sent a consultation form electronically to complete before your consultation apppointment (if required). Consultation appointment – You may be required to attend a consultation appointment. You will not receive your treatment at this visit. I will show you to the treatment room and trial the waxes on your inside wrist to test for adverse skin reaction.. The consultation appointment is an opportunity for us to meet, and for me to run through the procedure with you. A consultation appointment is required for ALL new clients receiving any of our specialist services and is not optional. Consultation appointments must be carried out at least 48 hours prior to your treatment appointment to allow adequate time to observe any adverse reactions. I reserve the right to refuse treatment if I deem you unsuitable for treatment, or if I don’t feel comfortable. Likewise, I wont be offended in the slightest if you decide it’s not for you and cancel your treatment appointment. No hard feelings.
Preparation – Make sure the hair is long enough – No shaving, epilating, tweezing or hair removal creams 3 weeks prior to a wax or those pesky hairs just wont budge. Best to exfoliate (body scrub or dry brush, I can supply you with both) the area the day before and ensure the hair is the correct length (ideally about 1/2cm). If the hair’s too long, trim it before your appointment!
The appointment – Please arrive for your appointment showered and not straight from the gym! You will need to remove all clothes from the waist down and freshen up thoroughly front-to-back with a cleansing wipe which is provided. You will cover yourself with a towel. The temperature of the wax will be tested on your wrist. I wear gloves throughout the treatment. The area to be waxed will be prepared using superior products. You will be required to assist in stretching your skin to aid comfort. Small sections of wax will be applied and then swiftly removed. You will be advised throughout the treatment of ways in which you can assist.
Aftercare – Please follow the aftercare guideance emailed to you with your booking email. Soothing and cooling aftercare products will be applied immediately after treatment. For 24 hours after your wax, do not swim, have sauna or hot baths or sunbeds. Only apply suitable aftercare products to the area to soothe the skin. Avoid sex if you have had a genital wax and avoid sun exposure and tightly fitting underwear & exercise. Please refer to the aftercare advice section of this website to download your pre and post treatment advice.
Frequently asked questions…..
Why do people get their “bits” waxed? – It’s as simple as a matter of choice and that it is becoming more popular. You must be over 18 to book my specialist wax servcies, and be mindful that mature skin can be more delicate and we wont truly know how your skin will react in that region until we start. If I feel your skin is too delicate, I will stop the treatment.
Will it hurt? – It’s not like breaking a leg, but is not completely pain free. Alcohol may provide you with a little Dutch courage, but it will NOT assist you with discomfort; quite the opposite infact, as alcohol is known to bring the blood to the surface of the skin, making it more sensitive. You can help to reduce the discomfort by stretching the skin. You will be shown what to do. It’s team work! Can I bring my partner or a friend for moral support? – No. This is not a spectator sport, and I need to focus on the task without an audience. What positions will I need to get into? – You will either be lying on your back or your side for your treatment. You may be asked to lift your knees to your chest, or to open your legs. Your modesty is respected at all times, and you will not be asked to position yourself on your hands and knees (all fours) unless it is essential. Will I be turned away?
I go to great lengths to ensure you are suitable for the treatment well before your appointment. You will be turned away if:
you are not medically suitable for waxing – You can avoid this by informing me of any changes to your medical history prior to your appointment.
your hair is not long enough – No shaving, hair removal cream or epilating 3 weeks before your appointment. You can’t cheat this! If you get a last minute spa day and shave a week before your appointment, your results will be disappointing.
you took part in National Naked Gardening day and got sun burn on your bum! Sorry – No bum wax for you! The treatment can be modified to avoid the affected area, but this wont be the result you really want, so wear HIGH SPF and re-apply regularly!!
you have poor personal hygiene – Ensure you have showered before your appointment, and do not come to your appointment straight after a sweaty gym session! Body odour & the smell of stale tobacco smoke lingers, and it’s not nice for me or other clients. Please
you are (or appear to be) drunk or under the influent of drugs.
you act like an idiot! Any suggestive/sexual/inappropriate behaviour is not welcome here. You will be reported to the Police without hesitation and the treatment will stop immediately if you behave inappropriately.
These scenarios are all completely avoidable and you will still be charged the full fee.
What if I get an erection?
It happens! Don’t worry about it. I wont. Just ignore it. I will.
I am worried about how I smell?
If you think you may have bacterial vaginosis, candida (thrush) or any other form of irregularity then I can’t go ahead with your wax. Don’t be embarrassed. It happens. Please just get checked out by a GP without delay and rearrange your appointment. Don’t attend an appointment with any form of odour or irregular discharge as the service will have to stop and you will still be charged.
How long will a specialist wax take?
Everyone is different and appointment times will vary depending on what look you wish to achieve. You will be advised an approximate appointment length at the time of booking.
Yeiks – I just got my period! That’s ok! You can still receive any of my specialist wax treatments if you are having your period, if you feel comfortable to do so. Please attend with a freshly inserted tampon – You can use the toilet here if you like. If you are unable to wear a tampon, please rearrange your appointment. My usual cancellation terms and conditions apply. How much will it cost?
There is a minimum charge of £38 for any specialist wax service. Please see the price list below.
What can go wrong?
You are invited to take a patch test 48 hours prior to treatment. This way you can ensure you are not allergic to the wax. Some clients experience a lumpy rash straight after waxing. This can be a histamine response and typically subsides all by itself. Occasionally, if the skin is not pulled taught, you can suffer bruising or the skin can be grazed. The skin may feel tender straight after your wax, but should subside within a couple of hours if you follow the aftercare advice given. If you are at all unhappy with any reaction, please seek medical attention. Pharmacists are an amazing source of help and knowledge. Please let me know if you seek medical attention so I can make a note of it.
Aftercare: Please refer to the aftercare advice given on this site prior to booking. You must follow this advice strictly. I stock a selection of post wax products which I would consider an essential part of your homecare.
