Waxing removes hair from the root, using either warm strip wax pulled off with a fabric strip or hot (film) wax that sets on the skin and is lifted away on its own. Hot wax grips the hair rather than the skin, so it is the usual choice for sensitive areas such as the underarms, bikini line and face; strip wax is quick and effective over legs, arms and backs.
The skin stays smooth for four to six weeks and, with regular appointments, regrowth often becomes finer and sparser. Salon menus list waxing by area — half leg, full leg, underarm, bikini line, brows, lip and chin — and most offer bundles. Male waxing for backs and chests is widely available too.
Hair needs to be around a quarter of an inch long for the wax to grip. Exfoliate gently a day or two before but not on the day, and avoid hot baths, sunbeds and the gym for 24 hours afterwards. Tell the therapist if you use retinoid creams, which make the skin more fragile.
Read the full guide to waxing — what it involves, who it suits and what it costs. Also known as leg waxing, bikini wax and hot wax.
The City Centre, around Buchanan Street and the Style Mile, holds the larger salons and the aesthetic clinics, with HydraFacials and laser courses fitted around work. The West End, near Byres Road and the university, has the widest variety, from organic facial specialists to independent lash and brow studios with a younger clientele. Merchant City is the polished end, strong on skin treatments and luxury manicures, and Finnieston has grown alongside its restaurants with nail artists and make-up studios that stay open late.
