How long does a Hollywood wax last for?
Generally speaking, most women come and get waxed every 4 – 6 weeks. To be clear, you will not be completely hair-free for that length of time, but we obviously need your hair to have grown back a small amount to be able to wax it off again. For your first few Hollywood waxes, we […]
Is having a Hollywood wax embarrassing?
We certainly won’t feel embarrassed at this point, and there’s absolutely no need for you to either. Remember that our team carries out hundreds of these types of waxes every single week, so we can assure you that we really have seen and done it all before! That’s the beauty of coming to waxing specialists, […]
How much does a Hollywood wax cost?
A standard female Hollywood wax at nkd costs £37 and this includes removing all hair from the labia, perineum and anus (from your undercarriage and behind), so you’re left completely bald (If you want to be left with a small landing strip then you’re looking for a Brazilian wax!) At nkd our therapists are waxing […]
What is a Hollywood Wax?
A Hollywood wax involves the removal of all pubic hair apart from a strip/triangle on top of your pubic bone. So for women, this means all hair removed from their undercarriage (labia) and around the back (anus). For men, it means all hair removed from their scrotum and anus. The Hollywood landing strip left on […]
How do I get the best results from my wax?
An excellent question and one we get asked a lot – especially from first time waxers as they don’t always get the immediate results they’re expecting. Getting the best results from your wax is a combination of the work you do leading up to your appointment and the expertise your therapist has when carrying out […]

What is hot wax?
At nkd, we only ever use “hot wax” for a Brazilian wax (also called non-strip wax). The particular hot wax that we use (Perron Rigot Euroblonde) is perfect for sensitive areas – such as your bikini region and works particularly well on short, tough hairs. The reason it’s known as non-strip wax is because we […]

We miss you Leicester!

Ahead of Mothers’ Day this Sunday, we’re going to talk ageing Lashes and Brows this week.
