Get the Most from Your Brazilian Wax

Since it was first introduced in 1987, the Brazilian wax has steadily grown in popularity. There are different versions of this particular waxing style, but a true Brazilian wax refers to all of the hair in the bikini region, front and back is removed. This leaves a clean and uniform look to the bikini area; if you are not a fan of going completely bare, you may opt for the popular landing strip. This term is used to describe a thin portion of hair which is left in the front. If you have never undergone a Brazilian wax, I’m going to explain the process in complete detail.
​

• When you arrive for your appointment, you will be escorted to a private room where you can then remove your clothing from the waist down. Once you’re ready, you will then lie on a table and wait for your technician to arrive. In order for your procedure to be successful, it is highly recommended that your existing hair be between ¼ – ½ inch in order for the wax to properly adhere to the hair. To save your technician a little bit of work, you may choose to trim your pubic hair using an electric razor prior to your appointment.
• Once you are ready to begin, your technician will begin applying wax to your pubic area. Each time wax is applied, your waxer will use a fresh applicator stick. The waxing process will begin in the front and move towards the back. When needed, you may be asked to hold portions of your skin flat so that the wax can properly be applied.
• The entire process of a Brazilian wax is relatively quick. This means a much more enjoyable experience for you and less discomfort during and after the procedure. If you would prefer to have a landing strip left in place, you should inform your waxing technician prior to beginning the process. Once the waxing process is complete, your technician will remove any stray hairs that may have been missed and apply a soothing lotion over the areas that were waxed.
