Is it normal for men to wax?
Absolutely! In fact, men’s waxing is becoming more popular as we write this. Some men prefer waxing for the smooth esthetic. Others, like athletes—swimmers, and cyclists, like to be groomed for their sport. Others do because they don’t want to wear their sweater on the beach.
Rest assured, you’re in good company when you decide to make that first waxing appointment.
What exactly is manscaping?
For the formal definition, Merriam-Webster states manscaping as “the trimming or shaving of a man’s body hair so as to enhance his appearance.”
We believe that manscaping is simply whatever grooming you do to look and feel your best. When it comes to removing excess body hair that makes you feel uncomfortable, we can help you with that.
Men’s waxing services: What can I expect?
Your Wax Specialist applies either hard or soft wax to the treatment area. The esthetician then quickly removes hair, in the direction opposite the hair growth. Voila, all smooth. It’s as simple as that.
How bad does waxing hurt?
Well, there are probably more pleasurable things in life than waxing. But that scene from The 40-Year-Old Virgin? It is a movie, after all, so cue the drama. It really is NOT that painful.
What are the benefits of male waxing?
- Well, you’re smooth.
- Your partner will LOVE it! Trust me.
- Speaking of that significant other, your stubble hurts-slash-irritates.
- You don’t have to shave or ask your partner to shave the areas you can’t reach. Because nobody wants to shave someone else.
- Waxing, on the other hand, allows you to get rid of unwanted hair in large areas at once, making for a much quicker process.
- Slower regrowth. Wax regularly and your hair will grow back softer, finer, and less coarse.
- Longer results. Depending on the area waxed, you’ll stay smooth anywhere from four to six weeks.
- Your buddies became part of the waxing movement and are pressuring you to follow suit.
Why wax at a salon rather than at home?
A reputable wax salon is a better option to remove unwanted hair vs. your girlfriend who says she can do it. Wax specialists undergo lengthy training and employ proper techniques for a significantly less chance of waxing side effects like ingrown hairs or irritation. Save your relationship, go to a pro.
