Price list
Times include a short skin check at the start. Hard wax lifts the hair rather than the skin, so we use it on smaller and more delicate areas.

Your first wax, explained
Hair needs to be about the length of a grain of rice, roughly 5 mm, which is usually three to four weeks after shaving. Exfoliate gently a day or two before, and skip tanning, sunbeds and strong sun for 24 hours either side of the visit.
The first wax stings most, because hair that has been shaved grows back thick and in step. With waxing every four to six weeks, regrowth tends to come back finer and the visits get quicker. Your therapist talks you through each stage before it happens, and you can pause at any point.
- A few skin questions before every treatment
- Patch test on request for sensitive skin
- Doors close on every treatment room
When we wax around it, or wait
Waxing lifts a thin layer of skin along with the hair, so some conditions and medicines make it unsafe. Tell us at the desk if any of these apply to you.
| If you have | What happens |
|---|---|
| Sunburn, a cut, a graze or broken skin in the area | We wax around it, or rebook once it has healed |
| A rash, cold sore, wart or raised mole in the area | We leave that spot alone. See a doctor about anything new or changing |
| Taken prescription acne tablets in the last six months | We will not wax, because the skin can lift and tear |
| Used retinoid or exfoliating acid creams on the area this week | We wait until you have stopped for at least a week |
| Had a peel, laser treatment or microneedling on the area recently | We wait until your practitioner says the skin has healed |
| Varicose veins on the legs | We do not wax over them |
| Eczema, psoriasis or another skin condition in the area | Ask your doctor first. We never wax over a flare |
| Diabetes, a circulation problem or blood thinning medicine | Ask your doctor first, and tell us before we start |
This list is a guide, not medical advice. If you are unsure about a skin condition or a medicine, check with your doctor before you book.
Before and after the wax
Freshly waxed skin is open and warm for a day. These four habits prevent most redness, bumps and ingrown hairs.
The day before
Exfoliate gently and skip body oil, so the wax grips the hair cleanly.
First 24 hours
No hot baths, saunas, gym sessions, swimming pools, sun or sunbeds, and no scented products on the area.
From day three
Exfoliate gently two or three times a week and moisturise daily so new hair grows through easily.
Between visits
Avoid shaving, and come back every four to six weeks to keep regrowth fine and the visits short.
Inside the wax bar
Three treatment rooms with doors that close, cleaned and freshly papered between every client.
Smooth, and said so (example reviews)
The bill matched the price list to the cent, and the difference between hard wax and strips was explained before anything started. Underarms done in ten minutes.
A first back wax, booked with some nerves. Calm, quick, and the aftercare card actually prevented the usual bumps this time.
A prescription cream came up at the desk, and the brow wax was moved back a week rather than risked. That honesty earns the regular booking.
Waxing questions, answered plainly
Does waxing hurt?
It stings for a moment as each strip comes away, and usually less with each visit as regrowth comes back finer. Hard wax grips the hair rather than the skin, which makes face, underarm and bikini waxing gentler. Breathing out as the wax is lifted helps.
How long should hair be before a wax?
About the length of a grain of rice, roughly 5 mm. That is usually three to four weeks after shaving. Much longer hair is trimmed first at no extra cost.
Is shaving between appointments a problem?
It sets regrowth back to the start, so the next wax may need to wait and may sting more. If you need to tidy up, trimming with scissors is kinder to the cycle.
Who books at the studio?
Clients of every gender. Back, chest, brow and leg waxing are popular with men as well as women, and every room has a door that closes.
Is there an age limit?
Age rules for beauty treatments vary by country, and we follow those where the studio works. We do not wax under 16s. Clients of 16 and 17 need written consent from a parent or guardian and can book face, underarm, arm and leg waxing only.
How can ingrown hairs be avoided?
Exfoliate gently from day three, moisturise daily and wear loose clothing for a day after a leg or bikini wax. If a bump turns painful, hot or swollen, see a doctor rather than picking at it.
Book a wax by treatment
Pick the main treatment and add a second area if you like. We reply within a working day to confirm the time or suggest the closest opening, and we ask a few skin questions when you arrive.
- Prices shown for every area before you book
- Skin questions at the start of each visit
- Payment arranged directly at the studio

Patch tests
For sensitive skin or known allergies, ask for a small test patch on the inner arm at least 48 hours before a first wax. It takes five minutes and costs nothing.
