Overall it was a really lovely experience. The beauticians were friendly and made me feel comfortable. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is that when I got home, I realised how sticky my arms and face remained after the wax. The beautician did apply some gel after the wax but it did not remove the stickiness. I had to apply bio oil on my face and arms to get rid of the stickiness. My skin also reacted a little to the strip wax. I believe the purple wax for more sensitive skin was used historically so I will ask for that wax next time to hopefully avoid the reaction on my face.

I've tried many barbers in CT. This is by far the highest quality cut you can get in Cape Town. Attention to detail at its finest. Every time I walk out of the shop I feel like a new man

I've been going to Carika for 25 years now. She is amazing, the best person for waxing I've ever tried and her pedis and facials are wonderful and relaxing. Her pricing is also very good. She is super professional and I will happily recommend her to anyone for beauty treatments.

I've had massages all over the world but nothing like today's with Origin Wellness. I did my research before booking, as I am on holiday in Cape Town. It was amazing and during the 90 minute massage I could feel that Rayhaana could feel the tension stored up in my body due to my lifestyle. I felt so much lighter afterwards and have booked in again before I leave. Cannot recommend highly enough. If I am ever back in Cape Town, I will definitely be back!

Face Waxing FAQs
Face waxing is a hair removal technique that sees hot or cold wax applied to areas of unwanted hair on your face. The wax is then quickly stripped off in the opposite direction to hair growth, pulling the hair out from the root in the process.
No. If you have dry or sensitive skin you should avoid face waxing because it could make your symptoms worse. Other side effects you may experience – whatever your skin type – are pain, redness, and irritation. You may also experience a rash, ingrowing hairs, temporary bumps, bleeding, infection, scarring, allergies, and sensitivity to the sun.
Roughly 3-4 weeks; after that new hairs will start to grow.
You can get waxing for a number of areas on your face including your eyebrows, mouth, ears, chin, nose, cheeks, and even your sideburn area.
In the days leading up to your appointment, stop any hair removal you’re doing in the area you intend on having waxed because your hair needs to be long enough (between a quarter to half an inch in length) for the wax to grip and remove it. You should also avoid acidic products and skin peels, and take care to moisturise and stay hydrated. If you have cuts or blemishes in the area you want waxed, you’re best off waiting for them to heal before you go ahead with your appointment. On the day of your face waxing appointment, cleanse your face as normal, but avoid applying any creams or makeup, and steer clear of anything that could heighten your skin’s sensitivity, like exposure to the sun and sun beds.
Your face waxing technician will prepare the wax for your treatment – they’re likely to use either hard or soft wax. Once it’s ready, they’ll apply it to the area(s) on your face you want treated, then swiftly remove it in the opposite direction of your hair’s growth, plucking the hair out from the roots.
