Waxing in London for Women
Best Waxing Services in London & Essex
Waxing Costs and Treatment at Shumaila’s London
We provide one of the best waxing services in London and Essex. Shumaila’s London offers waxing at our Upminster & East Ham branches (both in London) and at 5 branches in Essex. We have seven branches in the UK.
How does waxing work?
Waxing is an ancient technique, which uses wax melted at a temperature of 65 to 75 degrees. This is applied to the area of hair growth, then removed using paper strips. Most popular areas of ladies waxing treatment are face hair, bikini hair, underarms, leg hair, chin, back and chest. Many of our clients opt for full body waxing.
How often will you need waxing?
How often you need to get waxing varies between person to person, and how fast your hair grows back. On average ladies get waxing done once a month on body areas, and every 2 weeks for facial hair.
For a more permanent solution, we recommend all our clients to invest in Laser Hair Removal which is a life long investment to hair-free skin.
Is Waxing Safe For Your Skin?
Waxing carries a risk of burns when performed by untrained individuals. At Shumaila’s, backed by over two decades of experience, we have a flawless track record of providing safe and effective waxing treatments. Our commitment to your safety includes stringent safety protocols, extensive training for our practitioners, and the use of premium wax products. With thousands of satisfied clients, we prioritize your well-being and ensure a risk-free waxing experience.
What Are The Benefits Of Waxing?
- Smooth and Silky Skin: Waxing removes hair from the root, leaving your skin exceptionally smooth and touchably soft.
- Long-Lasting Results: Enjoy hair-free skin for several weeks, as waxing delays hair regrowth compared to shaving.
- Finer Regrowth: With regular waxing, hair regrowth often becomes finer, thinner, and less noticeable over time.
- Reduced Irritation: Waxing minimizes the risk of irritation and razor bumps often associated with other hair removal methods.
- Exfoliation: The waxing process also exfoliates the skin, removing dead cells and promoting a healthier complexion.
- Slow Regrowth: As hair regrows slowly, you’ll experience prolonged periods of smoothness and minimal maintenance.
- Precision: Waxing allows precise hair removal, shaping eyebrows, defining the bikini line, and targeting specific areas.
- Less Frequent Maintenance: Unlike frequent shaving, waxing sessions are needed less often, saving you time in your beauty routine.
- Convenience: Waxing can cover large areas efficiently, making it an ideal option for larger body areas like legs or the back.
Choose waxing for a hassle-free way to achieve beautifully smooth skin with long-lasting, satisfying results.
Is Waxing Painful?
The sensation of pain during waxing varies from person to person, influenced by individual pain thresholds. While some find it uncomfortable, others may experience minimal discomfort.
At Shumaila’s, we prioritize your comfort and employ effective techniques to minimize any discomfort. With over two decades of experience in waxing, our skilled therapists are renowned for their exceptional expertise. Their extensive training ensures a higher level of precision and reduced pain during the process.
For those seeking a virtually painless and permanent hair removal solution, we recommend considering Laser Hair Removal. This advanced method offers a safe and long-lasting alternative with minimal discomfort.

Waxing Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it is safe to get waxed while you are pregnant. We offer full body waxing, including intimate hollywood waxing for pregnant ladies.
Yes, waxing can cause ingrown hairs. The reason being, when hair is removed from its follicle, the follicle can shrink and close. When hair starts to grow again, it doesn’t find a path to exit out of the skin, and gets trapped under the skin causing an “ingrown hair”.
To avoid ingrown hair after waxing, you should exfoliate your skin regularly to avoid extra dead skin cells from building up which would cause the hair to get trapped underneath. We recommend using a gentle scrub or loofah sponge to shed off those extra skin cells.
For a more permanent solution to ingrown hairs, we recommend going for Laser Hair Removal, as it improves the skin texture as well as getting rid of hair and ingrown hair permanently. At Shumaila’s we offer free consultation and patch test for Laser Hair Removal.
Since strip wax (warm wax) removes the top layer of the skin as well as the hair, this can cause pigmentation and darkening of areas such as armpits and intimate bikini areas.
You can avoid darkening of the armpits by opting for our premium chocolate hot wax instead of warm strip wax, as hot wax protects the integrity of the skin and does not have exfoliating properties.
The best option is to go for Laser Hair Removal which we offer, as it improves the skin texture as well as getting rid of hair permanently. At Shumaila’s we offer free consultation and patch test for Laser Hair Removal.
Laser has many more benefits than waxing:
- hair is permanently reduced by up to 90% in 6-12 sessions
- it’s virtually painless
- improves skin texture
- gets rid of ingrown hairs permanently
- lightens armpits that have been darkened from waxing and shaving
- it is cheaper in the long term
At Shumaila’s we offer free consultation and patch test for Laser Hair Removal.
You can’t have waxing done if you have one of the following conditions:
1. Taking strong acne medication (in last 6 months) Roaccutane/Accutane
2. Hypersensitive skin
3. Taking photosensitive medications
4. Psoriasos/Eczema (can still treat other areas where skin is fine)
5. Infectious diseases
6. Allergic to wax
POST TREATMENT ADVICE TO CLIENTS
- Always wear SPF on areas exposed to sunlight
- Do not use perfumed products on the area for 24/48 hrs
- Do not scratch or itch the treated area
- Avoid rough handling of the area treated
- No Heat treatments for 24/48 hours (Sauna, steam room, hot showers & bathes, swimming)
- Avoid going to the gym or swimming in strong chlorinated water for 24/48 hours
- Avoid wearing tight clothing, jeans, trousers, tight underwear etc. in treatment area
- Avoid exfoliating, microdermabrasion or peels for up to 1 week
If you are having waxing on the Face, leave 1 week before having a facial.
Yes, anyone who wants to remove unwanted hair is a suitable candidate for hair removal by waxing. We offer back, chest, arms, shoulders and eyebrow male wax at Shumaila’s.
Waxing is generally safe for most skin types, but it’s essential to inform your therapist about any skin sensitivities or allergies before your session.
Hair should ideally be around 1/4 to 1/2 inch (6-12mm) long for effective waxing. Avoid shaving between appointments to ensure optimal results.
Waxing may cause some discomfort, but our experienced therapists use techniques to minimize pain. Hot wax is particularly gentle for sensitive areas.
Waxing results typically last 3 to 6 weeks, depending on your hair growth cycle. Regular waxing can lead to finer regrowth over time.
It’s best to avoid waxing on sunburned or freshly tanned skin as it can cause further irritation. Wait until your skin has fully healed.
Refrain from using exfoliating products, sunbathing, or tanning beds at least 24 hours before your waxing session.
After waxing, avoid hot baths, saunas, and direct sun exposure for 24-48 hours. Exfoliating regularly can help prevent ingrown hairs.
Yes, but your skin might be more sensitive. It’s recommended to use a tampon and inform your therapist for your comfort.
It’s best to wait 24-48 hours before swimming or engaging in intense physical activities to allow your skin to recover
