WHAT TYPES OF MEN ARE WAXING?
Athletes have long known the benefits of smooth, hair-free skin from increased performance to increased comfort & improving the appearance of muscle definition. These days everyday blokes of all ages, all walks of life and from every conceivable profession are waxing. Waxing looks and feels better, is more hygienic, may help decrease body odour, increases skin sensitivity and therefore sexual pleasure.HOW LONG DOES MY HAIR NEED TO BE?
I usually shave or clip, how long does the hair need to be before it can be waxed?
We recommend about 4 weeks of hair growth before you wax. We can wax hair as short as 1mm but encourage extra length to be sure that all hairs have grown out to avoid any hairs growing within the few days after you have waxed.DOES IT HURT?
Most men find the chest and the back of the neck as the most uncomfortable areas to wax. The perineum and around the base of the shaft of the penis can also be more sensitive. The anus is one of the least sensitive areas and despite what you would think the scrotum is definitely not the worst. This is because the hair is not as coarse or dense as other areas of the body, and the skin on the scrotum is thinner so the follicles are not as deeply anchored into the body.With repeated wax sessions the discomfort reduces. This is because firstly you know what to expect and get used to the sensation and secondly because the root of the hair weakens resulting in fewer and finer hairs which come out more easily.
