Waxing

---

All services are priced by body part - with time, product usage, and expertise needed taken into account. A leg is a leg, and a brow is a brow - we don't believe we need to gender body parts everyone has or up charge based on perceived gender.

Let's break it down!

• Classic Bikini (V&P): Anything that would be visible while wearing a pair of classic bikini cut underwear is removed up to 3 inches from the thigh crease and a little off the top.
• Deep Bikini (V): Anything that would escape a pair of thong underwear is removed. That means deeper in on the sides, more off the top, and from between the cheeks. Think tight and tidy. 
• Brazilian (V): All the hair off the labia and from between the cheeks. Can be totally bare on the pubic bone or leave a strip or triangle - all of these options qualify as Brazilian. 
• BB Brazil (P): Hair is left natural on the pubic bone but removed from the shaft, balls, thigh crease, and between the cheeks. 
• Brazilian (P): Everything gone from the pubic bone, thigh crease, balls, shaft of the penis, and between the cheeks. 

We use hard wax for all areas of the body, both Bushbalm Bush Beads and Italwax Full Body Gold, providing a far more comfortable treatment that's less painful and better for the skin than traditional strip wax.

Being well rested, well hydrated, and staying away from that tempting extra cup of coffee can help mitigate a lot of the discomfort of waxing. 

If you're super sensitive or just extra worried try taking an Advil 45 minutes before your appointment to give you a little extra pain fighting edge.

Whether you're a regular shaver and want to convert to waxing or just had a hair emergency and had to hit the razor, we strongly recommend waiting 2 weeks minimum (3 is better) for the hair to grow out evenly before waxing. 

Why? Because the hair needs to be about 1/4 inch (think the length of a grain of rice) for the wax to grab it properly. It's tough, we get it, but this will ensure you get the smoothest results from your appointment. 

If you've recently shaved please understand that we can't guarantee the results will be picture perfect.  

Absolutely! Just make sure you have a tampon or a cup in and we're good to go!

Many people find that they're more sensitive up to a week before menstruation or even during, but this can vary. If you're concerned just pop an Advil about 45 minutes before your appointment to take the edge off.  

It's nice to warn your waxer that you're on your cycle so we can watch out for your string, but please don't apologize - periods aren't something to be embarrassed over and we're professionals who have seen it all before.

We follow Vancouver Coastal Health hygiene and sanitation standards with care and precision. There is absolutely no double-dipping, all single-use items are discarded immediately after service, and every high-touch surface is thoroughly disinfected between clients using PREempt CS20 to prevent cross-contamination.

In an effort to reduce unnecessary waste, we’ve transitioned from disposable table paper and dental bibs to a medical-grade impermeable wax mat & modesty cover that aligns with VCH guidelines. These reusable items are meticulously cleaned and disinfected between each appointment using PREempt CS20, providing a sustainable, sanitary, and professional treatment surface every time.
