Unlike other types of bikini waxing, a Brazilian bikini wax needs to done at a professional salon if you want perfect results. The first thing which will be done is your public hair will be trimmed short or you may be asked to do this yourself before you arrive. The actual bikini waxing begins with the technician applying warm wax to the pubic hair. Cloth strips are then placed over the wax. When the wax is hardened the strips are pulled away from the skin, removing pubic hair. How much varies but the whole thing should be over within around 15 to 30 minutes. It’s a good idea to try to relax during the bikini waxing. Skin will then be relaxed and flat, allowing the wax to get deep into the hair follicles.

If you’ve opted for a full Brazilian bikini wax, all hair will be removed. Otherwise, a small strip will be left. Make sure you tell the technician exactly what you want as not every salon uses the same definitions. When it’s over, go home and put on loose fitting clothes and underwear. The salon should give you some soothing lotion to take home with you and you can also apply Calamine lotion or aloe vera to help with any itching. A Brazilian bikini wax should last from four to six weeks.
