Frequently Asked Questions
Does lower back waxing hurt?
You may feel brief stings as hair is removed. We use quality wax and taut-skin technique to reduce discomfort and minimise redness.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Let hair grow to 0.5-1 cm for best removal. Arrive with clean, dry skin and avoid heavy lotions or tanning the same day.
How long will results last?
Most guests stay smooth for two to four weeks, depending on growth. Regular waxing can slow regrowth and make it finer over time.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, we adapt wax and method for sensitivity. If you have active irritation, sunburn, or broken skin, wait until it settles before booking.
What area counts as the lower back?
It covers the lumbar area from mid-spine to the waistband line. If you need adjoining areas, let us know when booking.
