| What do I wear to my treatment? |
| Not too-tight things. You don't want to irritate your skin more than you have to. Wear something loose and cottony. The key is comfort. |
| Will it stay red for long? |
| No. Redness resulting from waxing goes within a couple of hours. If it doesn't, see your physician. |
| How often do I have to wax? |
| Every 4-6 weeks. Your therapist needs at least 5mm of hair for the wax to adhere to. Some men go every 3 weeks for a back wax. Others every 2 months. The more regular the better. Young hairs come out easier. |
| Does the hair ever stop growing? |
Yeah! After about 4 - 6 years of constant waxing.
(Wouldn't you give up too after that?)
Seriously... As per the 'old people' who used Pumice stones to rub off the hair on their legs before razors became so cheap and safe, hair eventually stops growing. |
| Can't I have laser treatment? |
Of course you can... REALLY expensive and you have to go more than a couple of times, paying every time... AND it also hurts... AND it does not work on blond or grey hair....
Ditto for guys with dark hair and dark skins (or so we are told and we always believe our clients!).
So, if you're considering going that route, do it before you go grey!
Laser treatment IS very effective, and it IS permanent... VERY good on facial hair! Ask your therapist to recommend someone...Therapists know everything!
NOTE: Go this route and you'll miss out on having 'your time out'. That special hour or two when you cannot answer the phone and no-one bugs you while you're being waxed. |
| Does it hurt? |
| Yeah, it hurts! But we've covered that under "Pain" on the What 2 Expect page. Go there... Cheers! |
| Can I wax my nose and ears? |
Yep and it's MUCH better than a tweezer and one-hair-at-a-time tears.
Somewhere some person made a rule that read: "Never wax your ears or nose". Utter twaddle! We bet this person did not have long black hairs sprouting from the tops of his/her ears or fanning our from the earlobes to make them look like a hairy monster that glows an orange halo when they stand against a sunset. You can (wax), and we do. Soft wax does a great job.
And noses... we are not talking about sticking Soft wax all the way up your nose to your sinus cavities. No, we're talking about Soft wax on those horrible hairs that stick out your nostrils. A dollop on a cosmetic paddle-pop stick does a great job of removing these unsightly passion killers. Ask your therapist if he/she KNOWS how to do it? Don't be a guinea pig... if they don't, don't...
For the downey-type of hairs on the ears, rather use a commercial hair remover. Wipe it on and get in the shower... DONE! |
| Is the sex better after waxing? |
| Hell YES! Its all skin bud! .... Go figure! |
| Do I have to take my clothes off? |
| It's advisable, uless you want wax all over your clothes. But you don't HAVE to if you are only doing your eyebrows... You can keep your T on if you only do your shaft and crack... really! If you don't care, drop it all... |
What if I get a woody?
(Erection/Fat for those who don't know) |
So what?
Therapists are professionals. They are not there to play with it but to remove the hair from it.
It's actually better if you do (get a woody) because the skin is tighter and it hurts less... plus the endorphins..... You get the picture?
Seriously... during the waxing procedure, therapists constantly pull the skin tight over the areas they are working in. This ensures the follicles are close to the skin making the procedure easier on you and for them. |
| Suntan/Sunbake? |
| NEVER get waxed after you've been in the sun too long! Your therapist will throw you out! |
| Contageousness? |
| NEVER perpetuate your problems on others. If you suspect you contracted something before your appointment, do the right bloody thing and cancel! Your therapist might spot something and then throw you out! |
| Skin conditions? |
| A therapist will never wax over moles, vericouse veins or any funny-looking 'things' on your skin. If there are too many of them they will throw you out! |
| WARNING! |
| You need a PROFESSIONAL to do your sensitive areas. If you are not happy with the way they do things, stop them and walk away. You're the client and it's your body. |
| Learn to wax |
Email us. We'll point you in the right direction.
Not many 'institutions' will teach you how to do a male Brazilian or how to wax intimate male parts. Most of them concentrate on bikini waxes. A lot of them are run by girls who don't want to 'go there' on a guy. Sometimes its better to learn under another therapist who does waxing4blokes.
If you find a place that teaches general waxing, tell US about them, and then tell them you want to specialize in Males Only waxing. They have to provide you with male models. Trust us, it's not the same thing as doing girls! Blokes just ARE different! Deal with it! |
