Waxing is the longest known method of semi-permanent hair removal. It removes large amounts of hair at any one time. New hairs will not grow back in the previously waxed area for approximately 4 to 6 weeks. Wax is applied warm to the skin and allows the hairs to be removed with different techniques. Hairs get removed from the roots therefor allowing a smooth finish. Areas that are repeatedly waxed often exhibit re-growth that is softer and lighter in colour and the amount re-growing will be permanently reduced.
Unwanted hair is common on the upper lip, the chin and sides of face, back, legs, intimate areas, underarms and arms. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, certain medications such as hormones or steroids, or even medical abnormalities.
Benefits of salon waxing:
-Will help keep skin looking naturally smooth
-Eliminates stubble growth
– Waxing lasts 4-6 weeks – compared to shaving which can last just a day or two
-Hairs become sparse over time
-Hairs become finer and weaker
-Slows down hair growth
All of our waxing treatments are completed with the therapist applying Australian Bodycare Body lotion. This is one of the most effective after wax creams as it contains 5% Tea Tree Oil which will calm and cool the skin and help to prevent in-growing hairs.
What types of wax do we use at Jasmines?
Hara tea tree oil creme wax
HARA Tea Tree Oil Strip Wax incorporates the natural antiseptic properties of Tea Tree Essential Oil. The ideal wax to use on clients prone to infected follicles and in-grown hairs.
This is the most popular method of waxing across the legs and most areas of the body
You should ensure that the hair to be waxed is a minimum of approximately 5mm so that the wax will take to the hair effectively. This is normally around 2 weeks post-shaving growth for most ladies or 4-6 weeks post waxing.
Hara Wild Berry stripless wax
A revolutionary, hybrid formula that combines the easy, thin application of strip wax with the superior removal qualities of hot wax.
Wild berry can be applied at an extremely low temperature reducing redness, is quick drying and is suitable for all skin types and all hair types. This wax is an absolute must have for all waxing professionals.
Hot wax is gentler on the area being waxed (therefore less redness post treatment) and excellent when used on shorter, coarser hair. Consequently it is mostly used on smaller areas such as underarms, bikini’s, Brazilians and Hollywoods.

Will you be embarrassed?
This type of waxing in front of a stranger will feel a bit awkward for many first time waxers – but do keep in mind:
-You are with a professional. Like a doctor, your therapist has seen it all before and will do their best to put you at ease.
-Nobody is judging you.
-You are not the hairiest person we have treated!
-The whole experience is rather clinical.
-The thought of a bikini wax is enough to make most people sweat, but the more relaxed you are the easier it will be to remove the hair.
