Better to start with than Brazilian wax, if you are not accustomed to waxing this area. Betweenie- $55 and upLets face it. Bikinii's and panties are getting skimpier and skimpier. This treatment is similar to the traditional bikini but removes a bit more so you can wear that teeny bikini bottom with no worries. Also a great start before going for a full brazilian.Brazilian- $65 and upThe is one of the most popular waxing procedures around, thanks to a group of Brazilian born sisters whoBrazilian Bikini Wax Herbana Spa Houston brought it to their NYC Salon in 1987. The aestethics of this wax havent changed much: its total hair removal from the private area (including buttocks). This technique has become most requested due to the popularity of thongs. We can leave a strip or triangle if you prefer, just let our technician know. Typically we use both hard wax and strip wax for brazilians but you can request all of either type of wax if you prefer one of the other.Eyebrows $17Lip $15Chin $15Nose: bridge/inside: $25 ea.Ears: $25Forehead: $25Full Face $40 (lips, brows, chin)Underarms: $25Chest: $50Half/Full Arms: $25/$35Half/Full Legs: $45/$65Half/Full Back: $45/$65Waxing 101: Heres why you should wax, and how to go about it! Waxing is Better Than ShavingWaxing actually removes the entire hair in the follicle, as opposed to shaving, which just cuts the hair off at the skin leaving a healthy hair shaft for regrowth. When you wax regularly, then hair regrowth becomes thinner and thinner over time because the hair follicle is diminished.Before You Wax * Hair should be at 1/4 inch long. (Be sure it is not too long for Brazilian) * Super-exfoliate your skin. (Try the Herbana Salt Glow!) * Take a Tylenol or Advil 1 hour before. * Dont go for the Full-Monty your first time; Brazilian is popular, but try a Bikini wax first. * Wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes. * Wax at least 24 hours before your big event. * Relax take that cup of tea your Herbana hostess offers you!After You Wax * Use mineral oil to remove any excess wax. * Prevent in-growns by exfoliating daily. * Use benzoyl peroxide to reduce inflammation or prevent infection. * Protect freshly waxed skin with sunblock SPF 30
