It depends who you have trained with as to how you do the bikini wax?
Basic bikini wax is everything just outside the knicker line....
After welcome, consultation, contra indications check etc
- Explain treatment to your client
- offer client the choice of paper knickers or keep her own on if she prefers to leave her own on you could put some tissues around her knickers to avoid any wax on her clothing
- leave client to get changed I always offer my clients a towel to cover themselves with
- wipe over area to be waxed with a pre wax lotion (I don't use talc as a preference)
- check wax temperature with a spatula if temperature is ok proceed with treatment
- if your using warm wax apply wax with the spatula in the direction of hair growth
- apply wax strip to the area with gentle pressure
- keep skin taught to avoid discomfort and bruising (ask client to help if needed) remove wax strip against the direction of hair growth ( after I remove the strip I always apply a bit of pressure to the area which seems to soothe nerve endings again my personal opinion)
- repeat to the areas needed (never wax over the same area twice)
- tweeze any hairs if needed
- apply after products and explain aftercare
- leave client to get changed
Hope this helps
