The Brazilian wax has risen in popularity in recent years and an increasing number of women covet the clean look.  Our Heaven Spa therapists perform lots of these waxes every week.  Be warned – once you have tried a Brazilian you will not want to go back (and neither will your partner )

Some of our guests can be really quite nervous before their first brazilian wax.  Relaxation is important though as the more nervous you are the more you will feel the pain.

Our therapists have put together the following checklist to help you prepare for your first Brazilian wax.

• Pain can be heightened during menstruation, so avaoid making your appointment at this time
• Some guests find that taking a pain killer beforehand can help
• Some guests worry about the optimum length their public hair should be – we recommend about 3-4 weeks growth.

Following your appointment we have the following aftercare advice:

• Avoid hot baths, saunas, steam rooms and exercise on the day of your wax – stick to a cool to lukewarm shower.
• Avoid using an perfumed products in the bikini area
• If you are prone to ingrown hairs use a product such as Medik8’s Ingrow Rescue

In  addition to our regular bikini wax we offer 3 kinds of intimate waxing at both branches of Heaven Spa – the Brazilian (which leaves a small strip), the Hollywood (all off) and the Sicilian (leaves a small triangle).  We only use hot wax in our intimate waxing treatments.   Avoid like the plague any therapist that tries to perform intimate waxing using warm wax – our bikini area is just too tender to use this method of waxing.
