Hair Removal

WAXING (HAIR REMOVAL TREATMENT)

​

Waxing is the process of hair removal from the root using a covering of sticky substances such as wax. Any area of the body can be waxed. We recommend repeating waxing treatments every 5 to 6 weeks. Gardenia Beauty Clinic offers two types of wax: strip wax and hot wax.

​

Strip Wax:

​

Wax heater bottle with roller head allows a very thin and clean layer of wax to be applied on a large area. Then a cloth strip is placed and pressed firmly over a thin layer of wax. The strip is then quickly ripped against the direction of hair growth. We mostly use a strip wax roller for legs, arms and back. For the face, we use a spatula to apply the wax and remove the hair with small cloth strips.

​

Hot Wax:

​

We apply a thick paste of hot wax on the body with a spatula. The wax then hardens when it cools. The therapist will remove the wax without using any cloth strip. We mostly use this wax for the bikini area, underarms, and coarse hair.

​

Aftercare:

​

Immediately after the wax treatment, you may see some redness and prickly type rash appear. This will disappear after a few hours. I sometimes ask my clients to take antihistamines as it helps the skin to recover fast. We apply a soothing cream and oil ointment straight after the treatment.

 

• Do not do any swimming, saunas, spa bath, sunbathing, for at least 12 hours.

• Do not touch the waxed area to ensure it remains bacteria-free.

• Use very gentle oil or moisturizer for a few days.

• Strong fragrance products can cause irritation.

• If any skin concerns happen contact your therapist.
