Waxing in Oxford, Oxfordshire
©Science- Led Waxing
Hair removal as a controlled skin intervention, not cosmetic treatment.
Hair removal places mechanical and inflammatory stress on the skin. How that stress is managed determines long- term skin health.
We focus on skin integrity, inflammation control, and follicular health.

Everything you
need to know
before your first wax...
Do you use hot wax for intimate waxing?
I use highest quality hot/non strip wax for all kinds of bikini wax, underarm and facial waxing.
For the rest of the body,
I use warm/strip wax..
How long does the hair need to be?
Whether you have waxed, trimmed or shaved, I am unable to carry out waxing unless there is 4.5 weeks of hair regrowth (the only exceptions are underarm, lip and eyebrow). Waxing any earlier is very unsafe. I will know if the hair has less than 4.5 weeks of hair regrowth
and will not carry out the treatment.
Please do not book an appointment unless you will have 4.5 weeks of hair regrowth.
How long will the result last?
That varies from person to person. Most of the time in the very first 3 weeks the regrowth is very little. If you previously shaved, it may take from 2 to 4 waxing sessions before you will notice the difference in the timing of the regrowth or texture of the hair.
Each session is performed by the clinic founder, ensuring consistency and expertise.
How often shall I book a waxing session?
To see the best benefits of waxing, I would advise you to come and see me every 4.5-5 weeks. The hair goes through 4 stages of the hair growth, which takes approximately 4.5 weeks. In order to see the difference and make the hair weaker, we have to take that hair out in the 4th stage. Waxing in an earlier stage is unsafe and painful as the hair is simply not ready.
Treatments guided by skin physiology, not trends.
Why waxing?
It is definitely more hygienic. I have waxed thousands of people of different backgrounds, different ages and all I can say: They never come back to shaving. Just try and see. I promise you, you will not go back to shaving.
Is it painful?
Of course it is, I am a beautician not a magician. My quickest Hollywood wax I have ever done is 8 min. Regardless if your appointment is 10 min or 40 min, I can promise you that you feel the pain maximum for 20 seconds. I will use all my skills and experience to make the discomfort as little and as short as possible.
I definitely need you to trust me
Health- Led Hair Management reduces
long -term irritation and follicular issues.
How do I prepare for my first wax?
I would like you to drink quite a lot of water a few days before and on the day of your appointment. It tends to be less painful when skin is hydrated. I need the hair to be no longer than half an inch, so you could possibly trim it. The longer the hair is, the more pain you will feel. Do not moisturise on the day of waxing. If you have shaved or waxed yourself, I would want you to wait for at least 4.5 weeks before booking an appointment.
Aftercare
For 48 hours avoid sunbathing, swimming, gym, hot baths/showers, saunas, steam rooms, any product application.
Modesty
I am aware that many of you are very shy when it comes to intimate waxing.
I will ask you to take your clothes off from the waist down in order to achieve the best wax.
I am a professional waxer and I treat my job very seriously.
