Prices start from around £10 for
armpits or eyebrows and up to £30
for chest and back areas. Often
the cost reflects how hairy you are!
The wholE
BALL-game
These days it’s increasingly popular for guys
to want their gentlemanly gardens to be
neat and tidy. Trimming is very popular as
is having your pubic hair waxed i.e. back,
sack and crack!! I’ve tried this myself and
I must say this isn’t for the faint-hearted!
There’s options to have all your pubic hair
removed or maybe just the hair on your
testicles.
If you intend to have your testicles
waxed be prepared for quite a
traumatic experience initially depending
in the thickness of your scrotum skin! A
good therapist will take things really
slow and give you an occasional break
to breathe and recover! Things will be
very delicate for the first couple of days
but the result can be very pleasing!
Top
pre-waxing tips
1. If your body hair is particularly long
(i.e. chest area) trim some away so
it’s easier to wax off. Some therapists
will do this for you but it’s worth
checking first.
2. Take some painkillers an hour
before you have your waxing
done!
3. Depending on what areas
you’re having waxed bring a
loose-fitting clean, cotton t-shirt or
baggy shorts to wear afterwards!
Warning
NEVER do it yourself! Use a
professional therapist who
is experienced in handling
men (so to speak!) as male
body hair is generally thicker/
denser and therefore needs
a different technique from
women to remove the hair.
Hot wax (as opposed to strip
wax) reduces the likelihood of
ingrown hairs. It’s very gentle
because it sticks to the hair
and not the skin.
