Shark week
Can I have a wax if I am on my period?
Joking aside, whatever you call your “days” as one lady once said, not heard of that one, but please know it is not a big deal, we will look after you. We even have some sanitary products in-house, if you get caught short.
If you have a treatment a few days before a period or on the day, it can be a tad uncomfortable. If it has arrived when you arrive, fret not, we can still do a treatment, we wear gloves, and if you wear a tampon or a moon cup, all is good to go.
Not everyone is a fan of the bleached cotton plugs or having it done on their “days”. Some ladies may only be able to wear a surfboard or brick, as we called it in the 80’s, but please just ask, it is a very common question. Never apologise for having a period, we are women too! If you are not comfortable with this, not a problem at all just please do let us know asap and we will reschedule your booking.
NB Many of our clients wear moon cups, you can read more about the moon cups from the people who sell them…kinder to you and the environment.
