SKIN TYPE REALITY CHECK

If you’re calling your skin ‘ageing’ but still scrubbing it, stripping it or ignoring SPF – it is your age that’s the problem.

It’s your skincare routine.

Fine lines, dehydration and sun damage don’t just appear overnight, they build quietly through years of incorrect care and wishful thinking.

Ageing skin doesn’t need trends.

It needs someone who understands it.

Ageing skin responds to knowledge - not guesswork.

For female intimate waxing, the type of wax used really matters.

I use hot (hard) wax, not strip wax, because it’s specifically designed for sensitive, delicate areas.

Here’s why it makes a difference:
• Gentler on the skin - hot wax grips the hair, not the skin
• Less discomfort - especially for first-time or sensitive clients
• Longer-lasting results - removes shorter, stronger hairs more effectively
• Reduced redness and irritation - ideal for intimate areas
• More precise – allows controlled, section-by-section removal

It’s a more considered approach - and one I choose intentionally for your comfort and results.

If you’ve avoided intimate waxing due to discomfort in the past, this may be the difference.

You’re welcome to message me or book online when you’re ready.

Intimate Waxing Aftercare – Looking After Your Skin

Intimate waxing leaves the skin smooth - but it also needs a little care afterwards to stay calm, clear and healthy.

The first 24–48 hours
This is the most important window, especially if you’re new to waxing
(regular clients may find 24 hours is enough - listen to your skin).

• Avoid heat, friction and sweating
• No hot baths, saunas, steam rooms or hot tubs
• Skip gym sessions and intense exercise
• Avoid sun, sunbeds and fake tan
• Wear loose, breathable cotton clothing
• Avoid perfumed products in the area
• No river or pool swimming (bacteria and chlorine can irritate)

Mild redness or small bumps can be normal.
A cool compress or Eve Taylor Soothing Masque with aloe vera can help calm and hydrate the skin.

After 72 hours
• Begin gentle exfoliation 2–3 times a week to help prevent ingrown hairs
• Keep skin moisturised with light, non-perfumed products
• Maintain regular waxing every 4–6 weeks for best results

Products I recommend are these Eve Taylor Aromatherapy products double beautifully as post-wax care:
• Purifying Spot Gel– ideal for post-wax breakouts or folliculitis £7.50 15ml
• Clarifying Skin Wash – helps keep follicles clear and skin fresh £13.00 50ml
• Exfoliating Mousse – smooths skin and reduces ingrown hairs £14.50 180ml
• Purifying Moisture Lotion lightweight hydration with purifying support £7.00 50ml or £16.00 200ml
• Soothing Masque – cooling, calming and perfect after waxing £11.50 50ml

Healthy skin = better waxing results

Regular waxing isn’t just about convenience - it improves results.

With consistent appointments:
• Hair grows back finer and more evenly
• Discomfort reduces over time
• Skin stays smoother for longer
• Appointments feel quicker and easier

It’s a maintenance routine, not a one-off fix.

Regular waxing works best when it’s consistent - and consistency is much easier when your appointments are already in the diary.

I offer the option to pre-book your preferred day and time, so there’s no need to look for last-minute availability or remember different days and times each visit.

With pre-booking:
• Your appointments stay regular and consistent
• Hair regrowth is easier to manage
• Results are maintained more comfortably
• You don’t have to keep re-booking or remembering dates

Appointments can be scheduled in advance for up to 12 months, with the flexibility to alter them if needed.

It’s simply a quieter, more organised way to stay on track.

If you’d like to set up regular waxing appointments at a time that suits you, just message me and we can arrange it. Or call me 07900 551765

A professional service - not a conveyor belt.

This isn’t a high-turnover salon experience.

It’s a private, professional treatment, carried out with focus and respect.
Appointments are spaced to allow time.

Your dignity is protected.
And the standard never slips.

If you’re looking for quality rather than speed, you can book online or message me directly.

Intimate waxing is one of those treatments where experience really matters.

Skin type, hair growth patterns, hormonal changes and sensitivity all play a part - and they’re different for every woman.

That’s why I work methodically, adapt techniques where needed and never take a one-size-fits-all approach.

If you value experience and calm professionalism, booking is open online.

Female intimate waxing isn’t about being brave - it’s about being informed.

Your appointment includes:
• A clear consultation
• Correct positioning explained gently
• Professional products chosen for sensitive skin
• Careful technique to minimise discomfort

No rushing. No guesswork. Just a methodical, experienced approach.

If you like knowing what to expect before you book, I’m always happy to explain things properly. Send me a DM if you would like to chat or call me 07900 557165

Intimate waxing, done properly.

Female intimate waxing can feel like a big step — and that’s completely understandable.

My role is to make the experience feel safe, respectful and calm, from the moment you walk in, to the moment you leave.
You’re never rushed.
You’re never made to feel awkward.
And your comfort always comes first.
This is professional waxing, delivered with care and discretion.

If you’ve been thinking about it but haven’t quite taken the step, you’re welcome to message me for a quiet chat or book when you feel ready.
