Body Wax (Full Arms, Underarms and Full Legs)
The Process
At Dream Nails, we offer a comprehensive full body wax treatment specifically targeting your arms, underarms, and legs. Our trained therapists use high-quality, non-irritating wax deigned to guarantee a minimal discomfort experience. Your therapy starts with skin preparation to protect your skin and improve wax efficiency. Wax is applied in the direction of hair growth and is promptly removed for maximum hair extraction whilst reducing pain. Special attention is given to sensitive areas to ensure a tolerable waxing experience. Post-wax, a soothing aloe-based lotion is applied to calm the skin and prevent inflammation.
The Result
After your wax treatment, you can expect to have smooth, hair-free skin. The treatment effectively removes hair from the root, ensuring that your skin stays smoother and hair-free for a longer period, typically between 3 to 6 weeks, compared to shaving. The cycle of hair-growth also slows down over time with regular waxing, making hairs sparser and less visible. As our therapists are professionals, risks of ingrown hairs or bumps are significantly reduced, offering you a silky smooth finish! You'll leave our salon feeling clean, refreshed, and confident, ready to show off your beautiful, hair-free skin!

Frequently Asked Questions
All FAQ (10)
What kind of wax do you use?
At Dream Nails, we use high-quality, non-irritating wax designed to provide maximum hair removal efficiency with minimal discomfort, keeping client safety and comfort in mind.
How long will the results last?
Typically, you can expect the waxed skin to remain smooth and hair-free for between 3 to 6 weeks, giving you more lasting results compared to shaving.
Can I get ingrown hairs from waxing?
While there is always a risk of ingrown hairs with any hair removal method, our therapists are highly trained and experienced, reducing the chances of ingrown hair or bumps significantly.
Does the hair grow back thicker after waxing?
No, contrary to common misconceptions, hair does not grow back thicker after waxing. In fact, regular waxing can slow down the cycle of hair growth, making the hair sparser and less visible.
What can I do to reduce discomfort during the procedure?
We recommend that you avoid caffeine and alcohol before the appointment as these can make your skin more sensitive. An over-the-counter pain reliever like Paracetamol taken an hour before treatment can also help manage any discomfort.
What happens during the waxing procedure?
The process begins with skin preparation to protect your skin and improve wax efficiency. The wax is applied in the direction of hair growth for maximum extraction and pain reduction. Post-wax, a soothing lotion is applied to calm the skin.
Can this treatment cause skin irritation or inflammation?
Some people may experience slight redness immediately after treatment. However, we apply an aloe-based lotion post-wax to prevent and soothe any inflammation.
How often should I get this waxing treatment?
Typically, we advise clients to schedule their waxing appointments every 4 to 6 weeks. Though, it may vary depending on your individual hair growth.
Can I shave between waxing appointments?
We generally recommend against shaving between waxing appointments. Shaving disrupts the hair growth cycle and could make your next waxing appointment less effective.
Should I exfoliate before or after the treatment?
It is beneficial to exfoliate the skin prior to your appointment to remove any dead skin cells, ensuring a more effective waxing process. Avoid exfoliation immediately after wax treatment, as your skin will be more sensitive.
