    A neat bikini, Hollywood or Brazilian wax in a private room, using a specialist wax for intimate areas, designed to keep discomfort to a minimum. The shape is agreed with you before Alex starts. Male Hollywood isn't offered as a wax, but is available with laser hair removal.

    Includes Traditional and skimpy bikini, Hollywood, Brazilian and bottom beard.

A wax done properly

Waxing is quick, but the details make the difference: how the wax is applied, how the skin is supported and how you're looked after afterwards.

  1. 01

    Precise

    Brows and facial areas are shaped to suit your face, taking only what needs to go, so the result looks tidy rather than overdone.

  2. 02

    The right wax

    A specialist wax for intimate areas, a precision wax for brows, and warm wax strips for legs and arms, each chosen for the job.

  3. 03

    Regular

    Booking every four to six weeks keeps regrowth finer and sparser, and each wax quicker and more comfortable.

Longer lasting: laser hair removal

How it works

From booking to smooth skin, here's what to expect.

  1. Before booking

    Grow it out

    Hair needs to be around half a centimetre long, about the length of a grain of rice. That's usually three to four weeks after shaving.

  2. The day before

    Prepare

    Gently exfoliate the area, and on the day skip body lotion, oils and fake tan so the wax can grip the hair.

  3. On the day

    Your wax

    Most appointments are quick: a brow tidy takes around 15 minutes, and legs and bikini together around an hour.

  4. Next 48 hours

    Aftercare

    Avoid heat, the sun, swimming, tight clothing and perfumed products while the skin settles. Any redness usually fades within a few hours. Full aftercare.

  5. 4 to 6 weeks on

    Next wax

    Rebooking every four to six weeks keeps you smooth, and regrowth tends to come back finer over time.

Good to know

The waxing questions Alex is asked most. If yours isn't here, just ask.

Ask a question
How long does my hair need to be?

Around half a centimetre, roughly the length of a grain of rice. Any shorter and the wax can't grip the hair properly. If you've been shaving, leave it for three to four weeks before your first wax.

How often should I book?

Every four to six weeks for most areas. Waxing regularly keeps you on a steady cycle, so regrowth tends to come back finer and sparser, and each appointment is quicker and more comfortable.

Does waxing hurt?

There's a quick sting as each strip is removed, which eases almost immediately. It becomes noticeably more comfortable with regular waxing, as the hair grows back finer.

Can I wax if I use retinol or other skincare?

Stop retinol, retinoids and exfoliating acids on the area for at least a week before a facial wax, as they thin the skin. Waxing isn't suitable within six months of taking Roaccutane. Let Alex know about any skincare or medication when you book.

How do I avoid ingrown hairs?

Gently exfoliate the area two or three times a week, starting 48 hours after your wax, and moisturise daily. Loose clothing straight after a bikini or leg wax helps too.

Is there anyone who can't have it?

Waxing isn't suitable if you have diabetes, phlebitis, severe varicose veins, poor circulation, a skin infection or virus, broken or scabbed skin, recent scar tissue or haemophilia. Let Alex know about any health conditions when you book.

Waxing or laser hair removal?

Waxing gives smooth skin for a few weeks at a time and suits any hair colour. Laser hair removal reduces hair over a course of sessions for a longer-lasting result, and works best on darker hair. You can't wax an area between laser sessions, as the laser needs the hair root in place, so it's one or the other for each area. Alex will help you decide.
