Waxing Treatments

Waxing is one of the most popular hair-removal treatments available, great for treating areas large and small.

At The Beauty Therapy Room we use the Australian Body care Hy-Wax System to ensure the health and safety of our clients whilst providing a quick and effective treatment.

The Hy-Wax System uses a crème warm wax that contains tea tree oil (Melaleuca alternifolia), nature’s strongest antiseptic.

As a warm (as opposed to hot) wax, it is suitable for sensitive areas such as bikini lines and underarms and good for sensitive skins too.

A new wax applicator head, individually wrapped and sterile, is attached to the wax tube for each client. The applicator facilitates a thin and even application of wax for quick and effective removal.

1. No spatulas.
2. No wax pots.
3. No mess.
4. No cross-contamination between clients.
5. Just a quick and effective treatment.
6. No wax smells.

NB: Different places call different treatments by different names.

At the Beauty Therapy Room:

• Bikini  Wax (Basic)= Hair is removed from the area outside the line of your normal  underwear, and nothing else.
• Brazilian  Bikini Wax = Hair is removed from the pubic area leaving a thin strip  across the pubic mound and the labias.

Important Aftercare Advice:

It is important to look after the waxed area particularly within the first 48 hours after treatment as this is the period when it will feel most sensitive and the area is at high risk of infection.

• Do not use perfumed body lotions, creams, aerosol and roll-on deodorants containing alcohol as these will cause pain and irritation to the area.
• We recommend the Australian Bodycare Deodorant which doesn’t contain aluminium or alcohol -perfect for use after waxing!
• This and other wax-friendly Australian Bodycare products, such as Australian Bodycare Body Lotion, are available for purchase from us in salon.
• Avoid friction from nylon material or wearing tight clothing such as tights or stockings and tights jeans as this increases the risk of infection and irritation.
• Do not have any sunbed or tanning treatments, sunbathe, go swimming in chlorinated water or have very hot showers/baths, as well as any heat treatments such as sauna, jacuzzi, steam bath, for at least 48 hours as these activities may cause skin irritation.
• The waxed areas will be sensitive to heat and chemicals such as chlorine.
