waxing

At Naomi Waite Aesthetics, we understand that hair removal is an essential part of grooming and personal hygiene for both men and women. Our waxing treatments offer a long-lasting solution for hair removal, leaving your skin smooth and hair-free for up to six weeks.

Our highly trained therapists use superior quality wax, which is suitable for all skin types and hair textures. Waxing is an effective hair removal method that targets the root of the hair to prevent regrowth, resulting in finer and sparser hair growth over time.

We take hygiene very seriously, and our therapists use disposable waxing strips for every client and sanitize their hands and equipment before and after each treatment. Our waxing treatment is gentle and safe, and our technicians take time to understand your skin type and hair texture before starting the treatment to ensure maximum comfort and effectiveness.

Waxing is a versatile treatment that can be used to remove hair from almost anywhere on the body, including the face, underarms, legs, chest, and bikini area. Whether you want to shape your eyebrows, remove unsightly hairs from your upper lip, or have a full-body waxing treatment, our team of friendly and professional therapists are here to provide you with the best possible experience and results.

Waxing is an efficient and long-lasting hair removal solution. Our therapists at Naomi Waite Aesthetics use high-quality wax and take hygiene seriously to ensure a safe and comfortable experience. Book a waxing appointment with us today to experience the benefits of soft, smooth, and hair-free skin.

Treatment care

PRE-TREATMENT CARE

  • Trim the hair before your appointment. Longer hair can be more painful to wax.
  • Ensure your hair is at least 0.5cm long, so your beauty therapist can remove the hair without using a couple waxes. First time waxers should have hair growth of about 1.5cm.
  • Exfoliate the waxing area 24-48 hours before your appointment. This will keep the skin soft and smoother and prevent ingrown hairs.
  • Bath or shower on the day of your appointment to open up follicles, allowing for easier hair removal.
  • Do not apply any deodorants, make-up, lotions, soaps, powders, perfumes or self-tanning products to the area to be waxed.
  • You can take paracetamol about 30 minutes before your appointment if you have never had a wax before or find the process painful.

POST-TREATMENT CARE

If you have any concerns, please contact Naomi on 07789634463

After your waxing treatment, you may expect the area to be red, some may experience blood spots due to thicker, courser hair and the area may feel tender and tingle.

For the first 24 hours after a waxing service, avoid the following to prevent irritating the skin:

  • Touching or scratching the waxed area.
  • Exfoliating the waxed area.
  • We suggest you rather shower in a cold temperature. Ensure the water runs off the waxed area and you do not wash or scrub this area.
  • Perspiration and friction on the waxed area.
  • Sauna’s and stream rooms.
  • Exercise, gyms and swimming.
  • Sunbathing, sunbeds or any sunlight and UV exposure. Sweat can infect open follicles and heat can irritate the waxed area. Remember to book your wax 2 days before you go on holiday, to allow the follicles enough time to close and the skin to calm down.
  • Applying products to the waxed area such as deodorants, make-up, lotions, soaps, powders, perfumes, self-tanning products etc.
  • Tight fitted clothing that may cause friction to the waxed area.
  • To soothe and calm the skin we suggest regularly applying an Aloe Vera gel.
  • This will rehydrate the skin and sooth any distort you may experience. Tea tree oil can also be applied to the area for its anti-bacterial properties in ensuring the area remains bacteria free.
  • Remember, it is important to keep the area clean and dry for 48 hours after your appointment.
