Classic Bikini Wax
For those who wish to focus on the areas visible in a bathing suit, the classic bikini wax is the ideal choice. It removes hair within a four-finger width of the bikini line, along with a two-finger width on the upper bikini area, making it an excellent option for first-timers.
Mini Brazilian Wax
The mini Brazilian involves complete hair removal from the front, leaving it entirely bare. During the procedure, you'll lie on your back with legs bent and feet together, similar to a butterfly position, as wax strips work their magic.
Full Brazilian Wax
The full Brazilian is one of the most commonly requested options. It covers all the front areas, including the bikini line and labia, extending to the butt strip. It's a comprehensive choice for those looking for complete hair removal.
Sphinx Wax or Hollywood Wax
The Sphinx Wax, often referred to as the Hollywood or Brazilian wax, involves complete hair removal from both the front and backside of the bikini area, leaving it entirely smooth.
French Wax
Also known as a "French bikini," this wax style leaves some hair on top and the labia. It extends slightly inside the area covered by a swimsuit and can include the butt strip if desired.
Brazilian South Wax
Take the full Brazilian a step further by including your legs in the waxing process. This one-and-done treatment ensures hair-free perfection from your bikini area down to your legs, providing a convenient solution to avoid razor bumps and nicks during your shower routine.
Butt Strip
As straightforward as it sounds, a butt strip wax focuses solely on hair growth in the buttocks area, leaving you with a sleek and tidy result.
Full Buttocks
If you prefer an entirely hairless buttocks area, request a full buttocks wax for a smooth and hair-free finish.
Brazilian Total Body Wax
For those seeking a comprehensive hair removal experience, the Brazilian Total Body wax extends from the lower half to your neck, covering arms, chest, back, stomach, bikini area, buttocks, legs, feet, and everything in between.
There you have it, an array of bikini waxing options you may not have been aware of before. Now, the only question left is, which one will you choose for your next appointment?
