Q. Waxing vs Shaving?
A. Regular waxing reduces hair growth activity over time whereas regular shaving promotes hair growth over time, meaning you’ll end up with more than you started with. Waxed hairs can take anywhere from 3-8 weeks to grow back and shaven hairs will reappear anywhere from 8 hours to 5 days! Don’t worry if you have only ever shaved – it’s never too late to start waxing!

A. Many women worry that it is dangerous to have waxing done whilst pregnant, but this is not the case at all.

Q. If I’ve never waxed before, how will my skin react?
A. In most cases your skin will be fine however it depends on your skin type. If you are particularly sensitive, you may get a reaction. (usually on the face and bikini area) It is quite common to get a slight reaction to your wax the first time and then your skin will become accustomed to the treatment and it is unlikely that you will get the same reaction again.
