YOUR FIRST WAX IS ON US! /
FIND YOUR NEAREST FOXY BOX
At Foxy Box, we’re all about helping you feel bold, beautiful, and foxy! And what’s one surefire way to boost your confidence? A flawless bikini wax, of course! Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned waxing warrior, we’ve got the lowdown on everything you need to know before you book that appointment.
What Is a Bikini Wax?
A bikini wax is a hair removal service that tidies up the hair around your bikini area. But hold up—it’s not a one-size-fits-all deal! At Foxy Box, we offer different styles so you can choose how much (or how little) you want to bare. From a classic clean-up to full Brazilian waxes, we tailor your wax to match your vibe.
Here are some of the most popular options:
💖 Basic Bikini Wax – Removes hair along the bikini line, keeping things neat while still leaving some hair behind. Anything that would fall outside your bikini or underwear.
💖 French Wax – Takes it a step further, removing more hair from the bikini area coming in tighter on the sides, and in between the cheeks, but still not going completely bare.
💖 Brazilian Wax – The smoothest option! Removes all hair from the front, back, and everything in between. Want to leave a little strip or triangle? No problem—we customize it to your preference!
Brazilian Wax vs. Bikini Wax: Which One Is Right for You?
Still deciding between a bikini wax and a Brazilian wax? If you’re new to waxing, starting with a bikini wax and working your way up to a Brazilian wax is a great option!
Why Wax Instead of Shave?
Sure, shaving might seem like the easy option, but let’s be real—it comes with razor bumps, itchy regrowth, and daily maintenance. Ain’t nobody got time for that! Waxing, on the other hand, offers:
✨ Smoother skin for weeks (goodbye, stubble!)
✨ Finer regrowth over time (it comes back softer and sparser!)
✨ No cuts or irritation from dull razors
✨ Less ingrown hairs when done regularly with proper aftercare
Not to mention, shaving only cuts the hair at the surface, meaning you’ll see regrowth in a day or two. Waxing removes hair from the root, keeping your bikini area smooth for weeks!
How to Prep for Your Bikini Wax
Want the best results? Follow these easy steps:
✅ Let it grow – Your hair should be at least ¼ inch long (about the length of a grain of rice) so the wax can grip properly. If it’s too short, the wax won’t stick, and if it’s too long, it may be more uncomfortable.
✅ Exfoliate – Gently exfoliating a day before your appointment helps remove dead skin and prevents ingrown hairs.
✅ Stay hydrated – Well-moisturized skin = happier skin post-wax!
✅ Avoid caffeine & alcohol before your appointment – These can make your skin more sensitive.
✅ Wear loose clothing – Comfy, breathable fabrics are your BFF after a wax.
What to Expect During Your Wax
Let’s keep it real—yes, bikini waxing can sting a little, but our expert Foxes work quickly to minimize discomfort. Plus, we use top-quality wax that’s gentle on the skin. Here’s how it goes down:
1️⃣ We cleanse the skin – Any oils, lotions, or sweat are removed so the wax can stick properly.
2️⃣ We apply the wax – A thin layer of wax is spread over the bikini area and quickly removed, taking the hair with it.
3️⃣ We soothe the skin – A calming lotion is applied to reduce redness and irritation.
And that’s it! The whole process is quick, efficient, and over before you know it.
Does a Bikini Wax Hurt?
We won’t lie—there’s a little discomfort, but it’s totally bearable! And trust us, the smooth results are 100% worth it. Here are some tips to make it easier:
Take a deep breath – Relax! The more tense you are, the more you’ll feel it.
Come in regularly – The more often you wax, the less it hurts! Over time, hair growth slows down, and the hair becomes finer, making each wax easier.
Use a numbing cream if needed – If you have a low pain tolerance, apply a numbing cream about 30 minutes before your appointment.
Post-Wax Care: Keep It Smooth
Your skin will love you if you:
💖 Avoid tight clothing for a day or two
💖 Skip saunas, pools, and hot tubs for 24 hours
💖 Exfoliate regularly (after 48 hours) to prevent ingrown hairs
💖 Moisturize with a gentle, fragrance-free lotion
One of the biggest post-wax mistakes? Touching your bikini area too much! Hands carry bacteria, and freshly waxed skin is sensitive—so let your skin breathe.
How Long Does a Bikini Wax Last?
On average, a bikini wax lasts 3 to 4 weeks before you’ll see full regrowth again. However, this depends on your individual hair cycle.
Want to stay smooth year-round? Book your wax every 4 weeks to keep your hair in the slow regrowth phase. Consistency is key!
How Often Should You Get a Bikini Wax?
For optimal results, we recommend booking every 4 to 6 weeks. Why?
✨ Less regrowth – The more you wax, the finer and sparser your hair becomes.
✨ Less pain – Waxing weakens the hair follicle, making each session more comfortable.
✨ Consistent smoothness – No awkward in-between stubble phases!
Can You Wax During Your Period?
Yes! But your skin might be extra sensitive due to hormonal changes. If you’re comfortable, we can absolutely still do your bikini wax—just wear a tampon or menstrual cup.
Pro tip: If you want to avoid added discomfort, schedule your wax a few days after your period ends.
When’s The Best Time to Get a Bikini Wax?
Timing matters! Here’s how to schedule your wax for the best results:
Before a big event? Book your wax 3–4 days in advance to allow any redness to fade.
Before a beach vacation? Get waxed at least 48 hours before to avoid sun sensitivity.
Before your period? Your skin is more sensitive the week before your cycle, so if possible, plan for the week after your period ends.
Can You Get Waxed If You’re Pregnant?
Yes! A bikini wax (or even a Brazilian wax) is totally safe during pregnancy, but keep in mind:
Increased sensitivity – Pregnancy hormones can make your skin more sensitive, so the experience may feel different than usual.
Doctor-approved – If you have a high-risk pregnancy, check with your doctor before booking a wax.
Close to your due date? Many mamas-to-be book a wax before giving birth for easy postpartum care—just make sure to let your wax expert know if you’re close to delivery.
Waxing vs. Laser: Which One Should You Choose?
If you’re in love with the smooth results of Brazilian waxes but wish they lasted longer, consider laser hair removal! Unlike waxing, which removes hair from the root, laser treatments reduce hair growth permanently over time.
Best for: Those looking for long-term smoothness.
Cost: A bigger upfront investment, but can save time and money in the long run.
