Introducing: The Brazilian Wax!

The Brazilian Wax has arrived at Salon Helena! With our new esthetician, Traci, running the spa, we’re now offering this wonderful treatment.

What is a Brazilian Wax?

A Brazilian wax is different than a regular bikini wax. Instead of only removing some of the hair in the pelvic region, a Brazilian wax removes most or all of the hair from the front, back, and everywhere in between.

What to Expect

Just like a hair appointment, we’ll begin with a private consultation to discuss exactly what you need. Use this time to ask any questions and to clarify exactly what you want. Don’t be afraid to be specific!

You’ll change out of your clothes and we’ll begin the process. A thin layer of hot wax is spread over the area, over which a cloth strip is placed and then swiftly removed. The process is repeated until all the hair is gone and your skin is silky smooth. We won’t lie – it is a somewhat painful process, but Traci is great at removing hair quickly and gently!

Some Tips Before You Come In:

  • Make sure you exfoliate with exfoliation gloves.
  • Make sure the hair is at least ¼ inch long.
  • Take Ibuprofen 45 minutes before your session.

Aftercare:

  • Put aloe gel on the waxed area.
  • Once skin has calmed, exfoliate with exfoliation gloves.

The Brazilian wax has arrived just in time, perfect for that winter-blues fighting vacation to the Bahamas that you’re planning! Call Salon Helena today at 505-884-4955 to make an appointment!  **SPECIAL FOR MARCH** If you get one Brazilian wax, you’ll receive an eyebrow OR lip wax free!
