Waxing is the removal of unwanted, superfluous hair usually found under the arm, bikini line and legs. Actually any part of the body can be waxed if requested. The effects of waxing will last for between 4 to 6 weeks on the body, up to 2 weeks on the face. This will vary with the individual and re-growth is normally faster in the warmer months of the year. As the hair is removed from the root the hair grows back with a fine soft tip unlike when hair is shaved it feels rough to touch.

There are a number of conditions that are not suitable for waxing treatments such as varicose veins, thread veins, very sensitive skins and certain medical conditions that may affect the healing of the skin. The therapist will offer advice concerning these conditions and discuss alternative treatments. Epilation is the permanent removal of unwanted hair using a short-wave diathermy current. A fine needle is used to deliver a controlled electrical current into the hair folicule to destroy the hair root. Once it is in place, the current is activated for 1 or 2 seconds, this current eventually destroys the hair follicle tissue, preventing the hair regrowing.

This treatment requires skilled therapists who can deliver an accurate, smooth insertion into the follicle these skills are necessary to obtain maximum effect reducing the hair growth and minimising skin trauma. The treatment plan will be identified for the client's individual needs. It is important that a client is confident with the therapist and the hygiene procedures. Treatment is often recommended every 7 - 14 days; this will vary depending on the area and skin type. Although this is classed as a permanent removal of hair, the result is achieved over a period of time.
