Top To Toe Waxing

Nobody warns you about this part of life.

One day you wake up and realise you’re…

📅 The family calendar.
🧠 Everyone’s memory.
📱 The reminder app.
🛒 The meal planner.
🧺 The finder of lost things.
🆘 The backup plan for absolutely everything.

And somehow, people still ask why you’re tired?!

We’re not bad at switching off.

We’re mentally carrying an entire household before we’ve even had our first cup of coffee

So if we seem a little overwhelmed sometimes…

It’s not because we’re weak.

It’s because we’re holding it together.

If this made you laugh, cry, or quietly nod in agreement… you’re probably due a break.

Tag the woman who’s forever muttering,

“For f**k’s sake… I’ll do it myself.” 😂💗

I’m probably not the waxer for you if you’re looking for a cheap conveyor-belt style appointment.

I don’t double dip, infection control is taken seriously, and you won’t be walking into a loud salon environment. This is a private, professional space where comfort, hygiene, skin health, and attention to detail come first.

I take my time with every person because quality over quantity will always matter more to me.

Whilst I’m at capacity and not accepting new registrations at this time, I am operating a waiting list for when the opportunity arises, let me know if you’d like to be on it.

Dude please..

It’s always good to know who’s going to be doing your waxing….it’s me! There’s no junior who’s done a 30 minute online course and ta da is now qualified and insured!

I’m experienced, well trained and always, always undertaking CPD that will add value to your appointment and not to upsell more treatments.

Happy Monday. Let’s do this 👊🏻

Comparison is such a liar.

So many of us spend years picking apart our own bodies.

The softer stomach.
The scars.
The stretch marks.
The wrinkles.
The shape we wish was different.

But think about the women you love most.

Your mum.
Your sister.
Your best friend.
Your daughter.
Your nan.

When you picture them, is the first thing you think about the size of their thighs? The shape of their tummy? Whether they have cellulite?

Of course it isn’t.

You love them because of how they make you feel.
Because of their kindness.
Their strength.
Their laugh.
Their loyalty.
Their heart.

So why do you believe your own body is the thing that determines your worth?

It never has.

As someone who works with women’s bodies every single day, I can promise you this: there isn’t one “perfect” body. I’ve seen thousands, and every single one is beautifully, wonderfully human.

Be as kind to yourself as you are to the women you love.

You deserve that too. ❤️

How to Prepare for Your Wax

A little preparation goes a long way towards making your waxing appointment more comfortable and giving you the best possible results.

✨ Step 1: Put the Razor Down

For the wax to grip the hair effectively, you’ll need around 3–4 weeks of hair growth (roughly the length of a grain of rice).

Don’t worry if you think it’s “too hairy”—I promise I’ve seen it all!

✨ Step 2: Exfoliate & Moisturise

Start gently exfoliating 2–3 times a week and keep your skin well moisturised in the weeks leading up to your appointment.

This helps remove dead skin, reduces the chance of ingrown hairs and allows the wax to grip the hair more effectively.

Just avoid exfoliating or applying moisturiser on the day of your appointment.

✨ Step 3: Skip the Coffee & Alcohol

As tempting as that morning coffee or pre-appointment glass of wine might be…

Both caffeine and alcohol can increase skin sensitivity and leave your skin slightly dehydrated, which can make waxing feel a little more uncomfortable.

Water is your best friend.

✨ Step 4: Plan Ahead

If it’s suitable for you, you may choose to take an over-the-counter pain reliever 30–60 minutes before your appointment. Always follow the instructions on the packet and check with a healthcare professional if you’re unsure.

Leave yourself plenty of time to get here too. Rushing through the door stressed and flustered only makes those pre-wax nerves worse.

Take a deep breath… I’ve got you.

Top Tip ❤️

The biggest mistake I see?

Waiting until a few days before your holiday to book your first wax.

For the smoothest, longest-lasting results, try to start your waxing journey 3–4 appointments before your holiday so we can get your hair growth into a regular cycle. Your skin will thank you.
