Frequently Asked Questions

Does chest waxing hurt?
Some discomfort is normal, especially for first-timers. We use quality wax and firm skin support to reduce pull, keeping the service quick and manageable.
How long should hair be for waxing?
Around 0.5 to 1 cm, about the length of a grain of rice. If you have shaved, allow at least two weeks of growth for best results.
Will I get ingrown hairs?
Ingrown hairs can occur, but good aftercare keeps them minimal. Exfoliate regularly and moisturise; we can recommend products if you are prone.
How long do results last?
Most guests stay smooth for three to five weeks, depending on growth cycles. With regular appointments, regrowth often feels softer and finer.
Is chest waxing suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, with the right technique and products. Tell us about any allergies or recent peels so we can adapt the service or advise a delay.
