A Brazilian bikini wax removes most hair from the intimate area while leaving a neat strip or triangle at the front if you prefer. It is a popular choice for a cleaner bikini line, smoother skin, and longer-lasting results than shaving, with regrowth that often feels softer and less prickly.

Brazilian vs Hollywood waxing: what is left behind
A Brazilian bikini wax removes most intimate hair but usually leaves a small amount at the front if you want it. If you would rather remove everything, ask for a Hollywood wax instead.
How the Brazilian bikini wax appointment runs (around 30 minutes)
You will be guided through positioning so the therapist can work quickly and accurately. Warm wax is applied in small sections and removed with controlled technique to suit the sensitivity of the area. The appointment finishes with a calming product and advice on how to look after the skin.
Aftercare for calmer skin and fewer ingrowns
For the first 24 to 48 hours, the goal is to keep the area cool, clean, and free from friction.
- Avoid hot baths, saunas, steam rooms, and intense exercise for 24 hours.
- Wear loose clothing and breathable underwear to reduce rubbing.
- Skip perfumed products, deodorants, and active skincare on the area for 24 hours.
- Start gentle exfoliation after 48 hours (as advised) to help prevent ingrown hairs.
- Moisturise regularly to keep regrowth softer.
When to rebook a Brazilian bikini wax for consistent smoothness
Many people book every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on hair growth and how smooth they like to feel. Keeping a regular schedule can make appointments more comfortable and helps the regrowth look more even.
