Frequently Asked Questions

Does a back wax hurt?
You may feel brief, sharp sensations as hair is removed. We choose suitable wax and support the skin to minimise discomfort and redness.
How long should my hair be?
5 to 10 mm is ideal for clean removal. If longer, we can trim before waxing for best results.
How long will results last?
Most guests stay smooth for 3 to 5 weeks. Regular waxing can slow regrowth and reduce density over time.
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, we tailor wax type, temperature, and technique to your skin. We also apply soothing products and provide clear aftercare.
What should I do before coming?
Shower and avoid oils or lotions on the back. Wear loose clothing and avoid tanning or heavy workouts on the day.
