This wax will remove fine or coarse hair from the lip leaving it completely smooth. Results should last 3 to 4 weeks.

Traditionally strip wax is used for this area, the wax is applied once and removed with a paper strip. Strip wax is very adhesive and is great for getting fine little fluffy hairs. The downside to this method is that it is harsh on the sensitive skin of the face. If you’ve missed any hair you cannot go over the area again with wax as it would be too harsh and may injure the skin. Instead you would need to tweeze any remaining hairs which can be uncomfortable.

Hot wax is more gentle, we use a protective oil so that the wax never comes into contact with your skin, it simply shrink wraps around hair only. Because it’s so gentle on the skin we can apply it multiple times without any irritation. This means we can make sure that we can get every fine little fluffy hair there is with no tweezing. Most people find the results last longer using this method.

If you need to head back to work after this service we are more than happy to conceal any redness for you, however if you are prone to break outs we recommend booking this service at a time that will allow you to leave the skin bare.

It is common to break out in this area if it’s your first time having this service done or it has been more than 6 weeks since you last had it done. If you know you are prone to breaking out and you have an event coming up it’s best to try and book this for the week beforehand. Waxing every 3 to 4 weeks greatly reduces breakouts in this area.
