Waxing, All Summer Long!

At Wax Me Too Salons, waxing for hair removal is popular all year long. Many people think it is a trendy treatment, a luxury, or a once in a blue moon service. But we beg to differ!

Interestingly waxing has become a bit of a phenomena in the United States and from what we can see, especially here in Utah.

Body hair is out. Waxing is in. Because the younger generations have declared that excessive body hair, in the bikini area, on guy's backs and chests, and in other areas, both male and female is gross, waxing has become very popular. So why wax you ask?

Waxing is affordable for one. A typical bikini wax which cleans up the bikini area costs only $30.00 and gives the client smooth hairless skin for about one month. Spend your summers boating on Lake Powell or water skiing at Bear Lake, why not invest in a simple bikini wax that can allow you to throw away your razer and be shaving bump free for weeks at a time?

For a man, excessive hair on the back can cause odd looks and giggles behind some cute gals hand. Don't be embarrassed by that shag carpet on your back. Wax it off. A back wax is quick and affordable. At $50.00 a back wax at Wax Me Too Salon, your guy will have all the hair removed in about 15 to 20 minutes. Yes, it does hurt...but just a little, but 15 minutes is worth a month of Saturdays, hair free, at the lake! And just a little more information: a male back wax is the most requested male service we offer!

Secondly, unlike laser hair removal, waxing has instant results. When you come in to wax hair off your bod, you walk away from our salon hair free! With waxing, we pull the hair right out of its little follicle forcing the body to then make a brand new baby hair! The baby hair grows in thin and fine and soft! After multiple waxes, the results become even better.

Utah folks love waxing. We are athletic and busy! At Wax Me Too Salons, we know that 9 to 5 does not work for everyone, therefore we are open from early to late most days of the week!

Waxing, The Battle Between Hard Wax and Soft Wax

Hard wax companies have done a brilliant job in touting the merits of hard wax versus soft wax when doing a brazilian waxing service, but the fact is, hard wax can be difficult to use, it's time consuming, it isn't as effective in hair removal, it causes more pain to the client, and can be expensive.

The companies that produce hard wax have sold the Esthetics industry as well as the general public on the benefits of hard wax through their claims to be "more gentle" on the skin and as effective in hair removal.

At Wax Me Too Salons, we beg to differ. Our expert brazilian waxers, trained in the art of brazilian waxing through the use of the "brazilian technique" would much rather use soft wax 99% of the time.

Yes, even in that particular area which is "supposed" to be so difficult to wax!

We do over 2000 brazilian waxes each month...with brazilian waxing being our number 1 requested service. We should probably rename ourselves The Brazilian Waxing Salon but we are rather addicted to the name Wax Me Too! (We do lots of legs, brows, backs and more..."from brows to toes & anything in between" ) But I digress.

Back to the debate of hard wax vs soft. When hard wax is applied, it has a "set up" period. It goes onto the skin in a warm smooth layer. And then you wait. And wait ...for it to harden so that it can be peeled off in one swoop (or two or three depending on the length) It's the peeling off part that has most clients on edge. Why? Because the esthetician must flick up the edge of the wax and then pull.

Now, that being said, there are those out there who are very proficient in hard wax usage. I, myself, took a 2 day class in Arizona on the usage of hard wax and am very comfortable with the application and the flick!

I just know that soft wax is "that" much easier and better to use. Someone not very proficient with the hard wax can make several painful mistakes...such as applying the wax into a hairy section of the body. When you go to "flick" the wax, you pull hair! Not good for the client.

In the lip area of the brazilian wax, hair can grow in different directions. It can be coarse, thick, difficult to remove. With hard wax, it is almost impossible to remove all the hair in one swoop or one fluid pull. It often takes two pulls and again...ouch for the client. Often, a reapplication of wax is needed.

With soft wax, the wax is applied, a thin piece of muslin is laid over the wax, pressure is used to ensure the muslin and wax adhere and then in one swift quick movement, the wax, the muslin and the hair are removed!

A skilled esthetician will not remove skin, will wax quickly and efficiently and cause minimal pain to the client. Becoming a competent waxer is like anything else in life when when you strive to be the best. The more you use a particular type of wax the more comfortable you will be with the wax, the more you educate yourself on your product and the more you do a particular service, the more expert you become.

At Wax Me Too salons, each esthetician is comfortable using soft wax. We do thousands of brazilians and have clients from all over the four corners of Utah, clients who come other states such as Wyoming, Idaho, and Nevada...we know what we are doing and we do it well.

We make safety, sanitation and education our priority to ensure that our clients receive the best in customer service and the best waxing service in Utah. We have both hard wax and soft wax in our salon.

Come on in, let us show you the difference between the two waxes and we will make you a fan of plain uncomplicated soft wax!

Brazilian Waxing and Vajazzles! A New Way to Body Bling

Body Bling and brazilian waxing are Utah women's most requested service when booking at a Wax Me Too Salon!

Jennifer Love Hewitt made Vajazzling an instant rage when she announced on the Jimmy Kimmel show that she once had Swarovski Crystal designs placed on her freshly waxed "brazilian-bikini". He dropped to his knees.

Clients at Wax Me Too tied up our phone lines wanting to know when we would offer this trendy, sexy, and if you really think about it, funny, new sort of body bling. Wax Me Too Salons now offer their clients a wide array of various designs and colors of pretty Swarovski crystals to be placed....well, actually anywhere you have skin.

A common misconception is that they are placed in an area of the body where the sun will never shine! Come on folks, crystals down there? Think bikini line, think hip bone, think buttock cheeks. But, the most popular place is just above the pubic bone giving your partner a very unexpected sexy surprise.

Swarovski crystal designs are best when placed on freshly waxed skin. Hence, after a brazilian or bikini waxing service, the designs are strategically placed on your skin and will last anywhere from 3 to 5 days ...(with some clients saying they've lasted up to two weeks).

At Wax Me Too Salons, the Vajazzles are offered as an additional service to our clients. Unlike New York Salons, Wax Me Too designs are a mere $10.00 per design, making it affordable for anyone wanting to try out this fun new way of body decoration.

A Vajazzle can be applied in under five minutes. All the designs are pre-created, all you have to do is peel and stick the design onto your clean skin. While they apply best to freshly waxed skin, don't let it deter you that your last wax was a few weeks ago....want some body bling, add a Vajazzle. Like waxing, Vajazzling is fun and sexy and offers an element of surprise to the unsuspecting!

We hope to have our doors open for business March 1st. We know clients will be thrilled with our beautiful new salon at 1160 South State Street just across from the Orem University Mall.

We have been wanting to open our doors in Orem for a while now, but have held back simply because we couldn't find the perfect location. That all changed this January when, on a visit to Leticia's Salon in Orem, she told us about an available space in her building.

Wax Me Too is one (out of maybe 2) truly "waxing only" salons. We don't do any other services than hair removal through waxing. Because waxing is all we do, we are great at it!

We have other locations throughout Utah in Layton, Salt Lake City, Draper and St. George.
