I get asked a lot if I treat men, the answer is no. For several reasons,

One being I’m not medically trained to do so!

I appreciate genuine interests but the answer is still No!

When the music knows what you’re doing 😆

It’s only occasionally that the music is apt for what I’m doing, but smooth operator certainly hit the mark on this one 😆😆

The most common question I get asked is how long does my hair need to be?

If it’s longer than a grain of rice then you’re onto a winner. Usually about 4-5 weeks growth.

Anything less will not give the desired result

Hair just comes out so easy after regular waxing

This client only had 1 previous appointment but her hair growth was so slow and sparse after it, I cannot wait to see her journey and how happy she’ll be with the results

With regular waxing comes less painful extractions

No shocks, no uncomfortableness, no worrying about pain - just simple removal.

Consistency is key when it comes to being comfortable with regular waxing

Down to earth -that’s me!!!

What you see is what you get, people like to know and see who they’re getting.

I know I’m not for everyone and that’s ok

Fancy going away with skin that people will be jealous of??

Then start your holiday prep with a full body scrub, give your team the best canvas to start with.

Scrubs are also good to exfoliate dead skin throughout the year giving you smooth skin all year round

Ever wonder why your wax feels different every time?

Your skin isn’t the same day to day, and so many things affect how sensitive you feel. Here’s what’s actually going on:

🔥Hormones & your cycle
Estrogen and progesterone directly affect your pain perception.
Many clients are noticeably more sensitive in the 3-5 days before or during their period.

😳Stress levels
When cortisol (your stress hormone) is high, your nerve sensitivity goes up with it. A stressful day can genuinely make the same wax feel sharper than usual.

💦Hydration
Dehydrated skin is less pliable and grips the wax more aggressively. Well-hydrated skin releases hair more smoothly.
Drink your water in the days leading up to your appointment!

☕️Caffeine intake
Caffeine tightens blood vessels and increases nerve sensitivity.
That morning coffee before your wax? It could be making things feel more intense than they need to.

💊Medications & skincare products
Blood thinners, retinoids, certain antibiotics, and acne medications can all affect how fragile and reactive your skin is.
Always let me know about anything new!

🌞 Sun exposure & exfoliation
Recently burnt, tanned, or over-exfoliated skin is already sensitized, waxing on top of that amplifies everything. Give your skin time to recover first.

The wax doesn’t change. Your body does.
Consistency is everything, the more regularly you wax, the finer your regrowth becomes and the less it hurts over time. Your future self will thank you! ☺️
