Bikini Wax in Milton, Ontario

A bikini wax removes hair that would show outside underwear or a swimsuit: the sides and the top, leaving the rest. A bikini line takes only the edge along the leg crease. Both keep everything else as it is, which is what most first-timers want.

It is the easiest way to start if a Brazilian sounds like too much. Many clients begin here and move to a Brazilian later, and plenty stay with a bikini for good.

How much does a bikini wax cost in Milton?

No memberships, no surprises. The price on the menu is the price you pay. Cash and e-transfer accepted.

What happens during a bikini wax?

  • You keep your underwear on and we fold it back at the edges, or you can use a disposable pair we provide.
  • Hard wax only. It sets on the hair and lifts off without a strip, which is the gentlest choice for the crease and the inner thigh.
  • A bikini line is a handful of sections and is over quickly. A full bikini takes a little longer because we shape the top as well.
  • We finish with a cooling lotion. Any pinkness fades within an hour or two.

How do I prepare for a bikini wax?

  • Let the hair grow to about a quarter inch, roughly two weeks after shaving. If it is much longer we trim it first.
  • Come in clean, dry skin with no lotion or oil on the area. Deodorant and body sprays can make the wax slip.
  • If it is your first wax, take an ibuprofen an hour before if you like. It takes the edge off.
  • You can come in on your period. Wear a tampon or a cup and we work around it.

How do I look after my skin afterwards?

  • Keep the area cool and dry for the rest of the day: no hot baths, pools, saunas or workouts.
  • Wear loose cotton underwear home. Tight or synthetic fabric rubs on freshly waxed skin and causes bumps.
  • Begin gentle exfoliation after two or three days and keep it up twice a week to stop ingrown hairs.
  • Rebook for four to six weeks out. Regular visits leave the hair finer and each wax easier.

Common questions about a bikini wax

What is the difference between a bikini wax and a bikini line?
A bikini line removes hair just outside the underwear line, along the crease of the leg. A bikini wax goes further, taking the sides and the top so nothing shows in a swimsuit. Neither removes hair from the middle or the back; that is a Brazilian.
Does a bikini wax hurt?
Less than people expect. The bikini line is the mildest wax on the menu. The top of the bikini area stings a little more, but hard wax and a quick hand keep each section to a second or two.
Can I keep my underwear on?
Yes. We fold the edges back as we go. If you would rather not risk wax on your own pair, we have disposable ones.
How long does a bikini wax last?
Three to five weeks for most clients. Hair in this area grows in cycles, so the first few visits catch different hairs and results get longer with regular waxing.
Can I switch to a Brazilian on the day?
Yes, if the time allows. Tell us when you arrive and we will adjust the service and the price before we start.
