Frequently Asked Questions

What is strip waxing?

Strip waxing, also called soft wax, uses a thin layer of warm wax applied to the skin and removed with fabric or paper strips. This traditional method is gentle and effective for large areas and fine to medium hair. The wax is spread thinly, a strip is applied, and then quickly removed against the direction of hair growth.

How does strip waxing differ from hard wax?

Strip waxing uses soft wax that requires strips for removal, while hard wax hardens and is removed without strips. Strip wax is applied more thinly and is ideal for large areas and fine hair, while hard wax is applied thicker and is better for coarse hair and sensitive areas like the bikini line.

Is strip waxing suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, strip waxing can be suitable for sensitive skin when performed by experienced professionals using gentle techniques and quality waxes. We customize the treatment based on your skin sensitivity and hair type, adjusting temperature and technique for optimal comfort.

Which areas are best for strip waxing?

Strip waxing works best on large areas with fine to medium hair, such as legs, arms, back, stomach, and larger facial areas. It's particularly efficient for areas where you need to cover a lot of surface area quickly and cost-effectively.

How should I prepare for strip waxing?

Hair should be at least 1/4 inch long for effective removal. Avoid moisturizing the area on the day of treatment, and gently exfoliate 24-48 hours before your appointment. Consider taking an over-the-counter pain reliever 30 minutes before treatment if you're concerned about discomfort.
