Hair Removal treatments
Shaving causes small grazes in the skin, razor bumps, rashes, and even worse ingrown hairs. We have a range of hair removal treatments (including wax, electrolysis and threading) that mean you can get rid of that razor!
All the hair removal treatments take place at our Sanctum Beauty & Wellness centre in the Croydon countryside which is close to Royston and easily reached from Cambridge, Potton, Biggleswade, Sandy, Ashwell, Gamlingay, Comberton, Great Gransden Melbourn and Cambourne.
How it works
Hot wax is essential for an intimate wax. The wax shrink wraps the hair but without pulling the skin, we don’t get you to go on all fours! You lay back with legs like a frog. then we get you to hold your knees to your chest and lastly turn you on your side in the foetal position.
We always wear gloves and we use disposable clean bed paper. You will also have an intimate wipe ready to freshen up before the treatment. Tools are correctly sanitised and sterilised.
Frequently asked questions
Not for 24-48 hrs depending on your skin sensitivity. Also any heat treatments, swimming, self tan, and friction are to be avoided.
Sunbeds aren’t a good idea 48hrs before. Also please don’t trim too short.. A great tip though is to exfoliate the front (Pubic Mount) a couple of days before to help release any short or ingrown hairs.
Of course you can! Just wear a clean tampon and tuck the string up inside you out of the way.
Avoid the first trimester but after that of course you can.
About a cm but from shaving allow 2-3 weeks for a decent growth.
If you are new to waxing yes. This is unavoidable, we can get all the surface hairs but cannot control the hairs that are growing under the skin (new growth) . However after a couple of months all the hair shoud come through together.
This depends on how you are feeling and your pain threshold, Pre-menstrual, hungover and stressed states can affect sensitivity.
