Specialist Waxing
Riverside therapies carlton on trent
Vikki is a specialist in both female and male intimate waxing with the Hollywood and Brazilian wax being the most popular treatments. For the intimate and sensitive areas Vikki uses a strip-less hot wax from Perron Rigot as it is the safest and most gentle way to remove unwanted hair from the root.
Vikki uses Perron Rigot because they have remained the leading brand for luxury waxing for over 80 years and use only the finest ingredients ensuring perfect results every time. The wax is designed to “shrink wrap” the hair, removing the entire hair with its root from the follicle, leaving the skin undamaged. Since the wax sticks to the hair and not the skin it is relatively pain free. It is important to remember that regular waxing weakens the hair and slows down regrowth producing results that last longer.
"Vikki is amazing at what she does. Makes you feel comfortable, welcome and relaxed! Definitely recommend 100%!"

Preparing for your treatment
Before
You should exfoliate and moisturise your skin in the area to be waxed for a couple of days before your appointment. This will help you get the best results from your wax. If you don’t regularly exfoliate the area to be waxed, you’re likely to have a lot of dead skin there which will be trapping hairs underneath it. By exfoliating and removing the dead skin, you’ll be releasing those hairs, which I can then wax (I obviously can’t remove any hairs that are still below the surface of the skin). Otherwise, you’re likely to see some regrowth quite quickly after your appointment.
It’s really important to moisturise regularly too, to keep the skin supple. For the same reasons as above, we want to avoid dry, flaky skin in the area to be waxed.
If you’re having an intimate wax, then consider which products you’re going to use to exfoliate and moisturise the area beforehand! You need a gentle exfoliator, preferably unperfumed, that’s not going to scratch the skin or irritate the area. Likewise with moisturiser – choose an unfragranced gentle one, which is not going to irritate or sting!
Please do have a shower on the day of your wax to ensure that you’re clean and fresh when I see you. Don’t heavily apply any cream to the area to be waxed on the day of your appointment though.
During
I will prepare and cleanse your skin prior to treatment with a low-alcohol cleanser specially designed for delicate and sensitive areas. I will then apply a few drops of Jasmine oil to ensure the wax clings only to the hair and not the skin.
After
Keep the waxed area clean and avoid heat and friction during the next 24-48 hours. Do not apply deodorants, body sprays, makeup, perfumes or lotions to the waxed area other than those recommended specifically for post depilation.
Starting a few days after your appointment, gently exfoliate the skin up to 3 times a week. Moisturise everyday to keep the skin soft and smooth and help new hairs grow through easily.
To prolong the period between waxing, use an at-home hair minimiser.
