A professional underarm waxing treatment in Buxton is the perfect way to achieve smooth, hair-free skin that lasts for weeks. Unlike shaving, which only cuts hair at the surface, waxing removes hair from the root, resulting in finer regrowth and a longer-lasting finish.


What to Expect

Before the Treatment

  • Hair Length: For the best results, underarm hair should be about ¼ inch long (the size of a grain of rice).
  • Clothing: Wear loose-fitting, comfortable clothes to avoid friction after your appointment.

During the Treatment

  • Cleansing: The underarm area is thoroughly cleansed to remove deodorant, oil, or sweat.
  • Pre-Wax Prep: A protective pre-wax oil or powder may be applied to help the wax grip hair while protecting the skin.
  • Wax Application: Wax is applied in the direction of hair growth.
More information
  • Hair Removal: The wax (or strip, if using soft wax) is quickly removed in the opposite direction of hair growth to pull hair from the root.
  • Multiple Directions: Because underarm hair grows in different directions, the therapist may treat the area in small sections for best results.
  • Finishing Touches: Any stray hairs may be tweezed to achieve a perfectly smooth result.

After the Treatment

  • Soothing Care: A calming lotion or serum is applied to reduce redness and prevent irritation.
  • Aftercare Advice: Avoid tight clothing, deodorant, hot showers, and strenuous activity for 24 hours to allow the skin to settle.

Benefits of Underarm Waxing

  • Smooth Results: Hair-free underarms that last for 4–6 weeks.
  • Finer Regrowth: Regular waxing weakens hair follicles, leading to softer, sparser regrowth.
  • Hygienic & Low Maintenance: Helps prevent shadowing and irritation common with shaving.
  • Professional Finish: Carried out by trained therapists using salon-quality products.
