About this deal

Strip wax works very well on large areas like your legs, whereas hot wax is best for stronger hairs in sensitive areas like your bikini area and under arms. A good shave requires a good shaving gel and Crop Gel™ is top-notch. Plus, we’ve made it clear for you so you can see everything. Convenient, eh? Can be done DIY-style or you can have a professional do it (and make a spa day out of the experience, so bonus!)

The Hollywood vs Brazilian debate can often cause a lot of confusion. In the industry, the two terms are sometimes conflated, with some salons calling a Hollywood a Brazilian or a full Brazilian. This can cause a problem at your waxing appointment if you ask the therapist for something you don’t want. Waxing is typically safe to do at home, but it’s best to get it done by a professional. Waxing can also be unbearably painful or cause irritation and infections if you have sensitive skin. Try to avoid trimming or shaving the bikini area between waxes. Short, stubby hairs are harder to remove so ensure hair is at least a quarter of an inch in length. Strip wax is a great solution for home-waxing, as they don’t require a heat source. Instead they are rubbed between your hands to warm the wax up to the correct temperature, allowing it to grip the hairs when the wax is pulled away. Whereas it is recommended to have a hot wax performed by a professional at a salon. How to prepare for a Hollywood waxAs you shave your razor blades are going to build up with hair which risks not giving you the cleanest shave, so pay attention. For your first time, we suggest rinsing out your razor under the shower water after every stroke just to be sure. There are a few different types of fabric that can be used for waxing strips, but the most common is muslin. Muslin is a lightweight cotton fabric that is very smooth and absorbent. It’s important to use a smooth fabric for waxing so that the wax can adhere to it easily and be removed without leaving any residue behind. Can You Make Homemade Wax for Removing Hair? Nair’s straightforward apricot wax strips are formulated to be effective yet gentle when it comes to de-fuzzing unwanted facial hair. Despite the fruity name, the strips are fragrance-free, which will be great news for those with sensitive skin.

The steps to shaving your pubes are also actually quite similar to shaving your face (you’re just dealing with a slightly different area): Go to your shower room Soothe and moisturize. Apply a salicylic acid treatment to external areas to combat inflammation and ingrown hairs. Let dry and then apply a soothing scent-free oil or other moisturizer to condition skin and follicles and help prevent the dreaded stubble itch.

The first appointment is usually the worst in terms of pain, so keep this in mind. The second appointment may feel drastically different.

Resist the urge to scratch! This could cause further irritation or microtears in the skin, and you definitely don’t want that. The electrolysis method is similar to laser removal, but uses a device called an epilator to send radio frequencies into the skin to damage hair follicles. This treatment treats individual hair follicles, one at a time, unlike lasers which usually treat multiple hair follicles within a designated area. If you’re nervous about using hot wax, some cold wax strips like Nair Coconut Body Strips can be used anywhere, even on more sensitive areas like the bikini line.For some, having a stranger (read: professional waxer) do the hard work is no big thing. But there’s no way around it—a bikini wax is never going to be comfortable or pleasant, and for many people, that added "now a stranger is involved" factor can only make things more awkward. Enter at-home waxes. Sure, there’s a little bit of a learning curve and a certain skill set involved, but once you get the hang of it, going the DIY route is an easy, affordable alternative. The caveat: Be sure to seek out a wax specially made for this sensitive area and read (and follow) the directions carefully since not all waxes are created equal. For instance, some waxes melt more easily and evenly than do others—getting the ideal consistency and temperature in a home microwave can be a bit of an art. And for those nervous about self-applying hot goop, wax strips that melt in your hand are a less intimidating way to try. To save yourself from developing irritation and discomfort after using wax strips, it’s important to take care of skin that will now likely be sensitive and perhaps a little sore. Applying a natural, fragrance-free oil post-waxing can help soothe skin and remove any wax residue. Steer clear from harsh physical or chemical exfoliants. All you need for a gentle exfoliation is a washcloth. Don’t drink alcohol or caffeine think it will ease the pain – it won’t. In may actually mean your concentration levels are lowered, leaving you with an uneven finish.
