Whether it is for a beach holiday or just a desire for a ‘fuzz-free’ feel, getting a Brazilian wax can be a painful experience, especially for beginners. It is, after all, a highly sensitive area. Plus, unlike waxing eyebrows, chins, and underarms, Brazilian waxing doesn’t require any paper strips.

So, the pain is real! Therefore, it is imperative to find a good wax salon to limit pain and anxiety. But before we start to find the best salons for your fix, let’s first get ourselves familiarized with the whole concept. 

So, introduced back in 1987 by a group of Brazilian sisters (yes, really), the Brazilian has remained as the most popular hair removal method universally. Brazilian wax is a waxing process that involves using hot wax to get rid of the hair that would be visible when you wear a bikini bottom.

It removes hair includes the strands along the vagina lips and in your behind. You can opt to leave a triangle or landing strip of hair on top. Or, you can go fully bare. It is your choice.


The Three Things To Consider Before Going To A Wax Salon.

To reduce pain and anxiety levels, and to make the trip pleasant, it is important to consider these three factors before going to a waxing salon.

1. Technician Skills and Experience

The more experienced and well trained the practitioner, the less the chances you’ll end up in tears. If they are very good, the experience is painless or close to it. 

However, if a wax salon has a high technician turnover rate and keeps getting technicians trained from other places, the salon will have less control over the consistency of its service. This raises a red flag and makes you doubt their calibre. So, do your research and make sure they’re up to standard.

2. Type And Quality Of Wax 

It is true, some wax salons treatments can give you more pain than others. This largely attributes to the type of wax they are using. A good wax should not only remove the unwanted surface hair but also hair from the roots.

Removing it from the root can reduce regrowth period but it is more painful. So, if the roots are not removed the customer may feel good immediately after the ‘minimal pain’ waxing session.

But during the re-growth stage, there may be more incidences of in-growth hair and the hair is thicker.  The types of waxes will be explored in the later sections of this article.

3. Hygiene

Hygiene is important. The spatula or wooden sticks to apply the wax should not double-dip for hygiene reasons.  If the customer is already halfway through the treatment before realizing the ‘double-dipping’, it is a little late.

As it may mean they have been ‘double dipped’ before your appointment! Some wax salons still give you economic wet wipes that come in a big pack that customers dig in to get the wipes, instead of individually wrapped wet wipes. 


The Difference Between Soft Wax And Hard Wax.

Both soft and hard wax requires a wooden spatula to apply.  Soft wax requires pieces of fabric to help remove unwanted hairs and hard wax do not require such assistance.

Soft wax is cheaper than hard wax and thus very popular with many salons. Hard wax works particularly well with coarse hairs. Soft wax is suitable for finer hairs in a large spread of areas such as legs and hands and more sensitive areas such as underarms and the private parts.

Thus for Bazillion wax, using a combination of soft and hard wax is more ideal as the inner sensitive part will require more care and the bikini and front area will require wax with more strength.
