Metro Waxing is the place for men to come and feel relaxed, and leave feeling confident every time they visit Metro Waxing.

We should not be telling you how important hygiene is during waxing. At Metro Waxing Camilla adheres to strict hygiene practices at all times. No double dipping of wooden spatulas during Intimate Mens Brazilian Waxing. Gloves are strapped on for all waxing procedures.  Treatment bed is lined with fresh linen.

Personal hygiene – When working in such close proximities as therapists do with their customers it is important to pay special attention to personal hygiene. We ask that you please come freshly showered before your appointment.

Recommendation:

1.Let the waxed area breathe. Avoid tight fitting clothing and let your pubic region breathe after along day or sweaty workouts. And to that end, stay away from moisture retaining synthetic fabrics and opt for organic cotton underwear/boxers such as Skin’s organic cotton boy short briefs. A few adjustments to your regimen aside, you’ll find: The less pubic hair, the less to worry about.

2.When you grow out your hair, a healthy cleansing regimen is important as you  may have more issues with sweating and hair can trap odour and bacteria.  Camilla advises using your exfoliating gloves once a week with a gentle pH-balanced, paraben and sulphate-free body-wash and hydrating cream.  I also recommend coconut-oil on the pubic region to nourish and soften skin and hair.

3.Cutting and shaving pubic/hairs will make the ends feel more scratchy and bristly in texture, so [one of] the benefits of leaving pubic hair long before your wax is that it feels soft, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make the texture even silkier.  Grape seed and Coconut oils are my personal recommendations on keeping skin super nourished and hair soft.

For the best results – every 4-5 weeks.

Assuming it’s your first time – you can expect smooth’ results from the 3rd to 4th consecutive treatment.

Remember to not shave in between your waxing treatments and exfoliate your skin every other day.  Camilla will explain the aftercare with you at the time of your appointment.  She will also explain the importance of exfoliating mitts as well as aftercare products to take home.  This aftercare will ensure your skin remains smooth and bump free for longer before your next waxing appointment in four to five weeks.

Believe it or not, not all waxes are created equal.

Camilla has carefully selected a waxing line she believes her clients will love.

It is particularly helpful if you do your research before embarking on a trip to any salon and the environment is a relaxing.

You will need a mild tolerance to waxing especially for people who have never waxed, however with regular waxing, you can expect this to get easier every time as your hair grows back weaker, and finer.

Metro Waxing’s specialised waxing techniques and premium waxes ensures that every visit has less ouch!

Have fun with that! Chase him around the house and pull those hairs out.

Or you could try growing all your hair back after you have tried pulling them out for him and see whether he approves of that. Sound convincing enough?

No matter what, he will love the new feel and look.

You will need to remove your bottom garments and that means the boxers come off too. Don’t worry, a towel is provided for your modesty.

NB: If you choose to wear your own briefs or underwear – Metro Waxing can not assume responsibility for any product contact.

Ingrown hairs can be par for the course no matter how you wear your hair. When it comes to keeping ingrowns at bay, exfoliation in the shower works wonders.  Camilla’s pick – A pair of exfoliating gloves and Bump Eraiser Medi Paste by Caron. This fast triple action product is designed to reduce bumps, redness, and ingrown’s as well as slow hair regrowth infused with antibacterial Tea Tree Oil and Vitamin A.  Apply to clean skin and use as often as needed.

Ingrown hairs can happen with any hair removal method. When the new hair grows back, it grows back finer and weaker, it lacks the strength to push through the skin and so ingrown’s occur. One of the most common and annoying side effects of waxing is ingrown hairs. While exfoliating and moisturising are beneficial, sometimes a fast acting product may be needed.  Pressure may cause this issue too, so avoid tight fitting clothing.

Bump Eraiser Medi Paste by Caron – $30 for a 30ml tube

1. If it is your first wax and you are unsure about having a full wax, I offer a patch test on Saturday mornings as an introduction to waxing. This service is $20
2. Let your unwanted hair grow to more than 1.5cm for effective results. Please do not shave or trim the hair you want waxed.
3. Gently exfoliate your skin with exfoliating gloves/mitts at least one day before the wax.
4. Moisturise the night before with a light lotion to keep skin subtle & soft. Not the day of.
5. Skip coffee the day of the wax and drink water instead.

Bumps & Redness are a normal part of waxing and should settle down in a couple of hours.

1. Avoid sporting activities for up to 24 hours after your wax.
2. Avoid direct sunlight.
3. Exfoliate the waxed area at least once a week with a exfoliating gloves or mitts to prevent ingrown hair.
4. Moisturise daily to keep skin soft and subtle.
5. Plan your next appointment.

Put it frankly, shaved hair is a pain to wax in my experience.  I see so many times shaved hair tends to break during waxing and the customer is left with breakage and unwaxed hair left in the skin.  It leaves you [customer] with an annoying itch, rash and redness and you’ll just find yourself reaching for the blade 2 days later to get ‘the’ smooth effect again and again.   Waxing on the other hand; there so many benefits and reasons to opt for a waxing treatment over shaving.  When you get into the habit of waxing regularly, you will have ongoing, hair-free, smooth skin for longer.  Waxed hair grows back finer with less itch provided you follow a daily/weekly regimen of exfoliating and moisturising combined with regular waxing.   See the results for yourself and give it a go.
