Is introducing waxing a good move?

[leonnib]

I do a bare minimum of two or three waxes a day, and in the summer months this rockets.

thanks.. probably just about missed out on the summer months now but il still start it up probably beginning of august.

All sounds great but for goodness sake put a bit of practice in before sticking it on the menu if you are doing it yourself.
Its not a case of just learning it on the monday and off you go fully booked on the tuesday ripping hairs off everyone there is quite a bit of skill involved.

i wasnt planning to do learn on monday and start doing it on tuesday
i have a part time stylist who is qualified in beauty. and then after i have learnt i can add it full time..

Absolutely, taking a good waxing course is a must and becoming a great waxer will set you apart from other salons in your area. If you are good waxer you will be busy.

I am looking for a waxing course at the moment (there's not a lot of choice in Wiltshire!)

What would you look for in a course? What would make it good?

I don't want to waste my money.

Right, there's Axiom in Basingstoke, he is a guru at waxing and runs some superb training courses, although off the top of my head I think he mainly specialises in male waxing. But well worth a trip up the A303 either way!

Further afield, Kim Lawless is in Upminster, and is also one of the best waxing trainers in the country. A fair bit further from Wiltshire - M4 and M25 - but again excellent training and well worth the drive.

Contact Kim!
She's doing some training sessions in Cardiff in September, which is a hop on the M4 from Bristol, so it must be close enough for you too :hug:

Good question; one thing I would say as a waxing client is that I have experienced the most comfortable results from both Berins and Perron Rigot (particularly for intimate waxing); both are "premium" brands that can offer distinct advantages compared to other products, e.g. their "warm wax" works at a lower temperature than traditional hot wax, and is thus more comfortable when applied to the client. That's particularly useful for intimate waxing where the skin is extra tender.
