Underarms Wax

What an underarms wax appointment includes

Underarms waxing is a focused treatment for the underarm area, designed to remove hair cleanly and leave the skin feeling smooth.

• Cleansing and prepping the underarm area to remove deodorant, oils and residue.
• Application of professional wax to lift underarm hair from the root.
• Removal in controlled sections for a cleaner finish and fewer missed hairs.
• Tweezing of any remaining fine hairs where needed.
• A soothing finish applied to calm the skin and reduce surface redness.

Underarms waxing is a good choice if you are done with shaving rash and daily stubble

• You want smoother underarms for holidays, gym routines or sleeveless outfits.
• You get quick regrowth after shaving and prefer longer-lasting hair removal.
• You are prone to shadowing and want a cleaner-looking underarm area.
• You want a neater finish around the natural underarm shape.

How to prepare for an underarms wax

Arrive with clean underarms and, if possible, skip deodorant on the day so the wax can grip properly. Aim for a few millimetres of hair growth, as very short hair can be harder to remove from the root.

Avoid exfoliating or using fragranced products on the underarms for 24 hours beforehand, especially if you are sensitive.

Underarms wax aftercare for calm, smooth skin

For the first 24 hours, avoid heat and friction, as freshly waxed skin can be more reactive.

• Skip deodorant, heavy perfumes and fragranced body lotions on the area.
• Avoid hot baths, saunas, steam rooms and intense workouts.
• Wear looser clothing to reduce rubbing.
• After 48 hours, gentle exfoliation can help reduce the chance of ingrown hairs.

How often to book an underarms wax

Many people rebook every 3 to 5 weeks, depending on hair growth and how smooth they like to stay. Keeping a regular schedule often makes regrowth feel finer and appointments quicker.
