Question 1

What is full body waxing and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

A full body wax involves waxing the areas of your body you want hair removed from. The treatment tends to start by waxing your intimate area, then moves on to your arms, legs and back. Some full body wax treatments include facial waxes, but not all. It’s likely that soft wax will be used on your larger limbs, and hard wax on more sensitive areas. 
Waxing works by applying warmed wax to the areas of unwanted hair then stripping it quickly off in the opposite direction to your hair’s growth. This ensures hairs are plucked out from the root, leaving your skin smooth and hair-free.

Question 2

How long does a full body waxing session take?

Accepted Answer

45-60 minutes.

Question 3

Is full body waxing painful?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It’s highly likely that you will feel pain and discomfort during a full body wax – how much depends on your personal pain threshold.

Question 4

How often should I get a full body wax?

Accepted Answer

Leave around 4 weeks between your waxing appointments to ensure your hair is long enough for the wax to take hold of and remove.

Question 5

What are the risks and potential side effects of full body waxing?

Accepted Answer

Side effects and risks include pain, swelling, redness, rashes, breakouts, scarring, allergic reactions, ingrown hairs, bruising, and skin infections. Your skin may also be more sensitive to the sun for the first few days after you’ve had your full body wax.

Question 6

How much does full body waxing cost and is it covered by insurance?

Accepted Answer

You should expect to pay between $10 and $107 for a full body wax. Many cosmetic procedures aren’t covered by insurers, so if you’re planning on putting it through your insurance, check your policy first.
