How long does the hair need to be?
For waxing, You need at least 3 weeks growth or the length of a grain of rice to get the best best possible.
For IPL hair removal you need to shave 12/24 hours before the treatment (Please arrive to your patch test unshaven)
Can I get waxed or get IPL if I’m pregnant?
Yes you can! Just book the normal bikini waxes up until you feel you need some extra support then book in for the Paige. This is to give me the heads up you’re needing extra pillows or extra time. You cannot get IPL during pregnancy and until 6 months after birth.
