Waxing or sugaring: two methods
With waxing, we remove hair with warm wax. With sugaring, we use sugar paste by Radeq Lab from the Netherlands, which according to the manufacturer is gentle on the skin microbiome and suitable for all skin types. We advise you on which method suits your skin and the area, and we finish every treatment with soothing care. For longer-lasting results, we recommend laser hair removal.

Smooth for weeks. Not just for today.
With warm wax or gentle sugar paste, we remove hair on the face and body, for women and men. The result usually lasts a few weeks.
- Two methods: warm wax, or sugar paste by Radeq Lab from the Netherlands. Sugaring is often described as gentler.
- For women and men: from the face to the legs. For men, also back, chest, stomach, shoulders and arms.

Is waxing or sugaring right for you?
A good fit if
- you would like smooth skin for a few weeks
- you would like to leave the daily razor behind
- you are looking for a gentle method: then sugaring is a good fit
- you are a man and would like your back, chest, shoulders or arms treated
We would rather wait if
- your hair is shorter than 3 mm
- you have applied a lotion or an exfoliant on the same day
- you are planning sun, sauna or a solarium straight afterwards
- you would like less hair in the long term: then laser hair removal is a better fit
Afterwards: one day of rest, then simply smooth
For the first 24 hours, avoid sun, sauna, solarium, hot baths and tight clothing. From the second or third day, exfoliate gently and moisturise regularly.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between waxing and sugaring?
Waxing works with warm wax, sugaring with a natural sugar paste. Sugaring is considered particularly kind to the skin; waxing is quick and thorough. We are happy to advise you.
How long does the hair need to be?
Ideally about 3 to 5 millimetres, so that the wax or paste can grip the hair well.
How long does the result last?
Usually a few weeks, depending on hair growth and the area.
Waxing or laser hair removal?
Waxing and sugaring remove the hair for a few weeks. The alexandrite laser reduces hair growth over several sessions and works best on dark hair. Whether it suits you, we clarify in a free 20-minute consultation: book a laser consultation online.
Does waxing hurt?
A brief tug is part of it, especially at the first treatment. With regular waxing, hair often grows back finer and it becomes more comfortable. Many people find sugaring a little gentler.
How do I prepare for waxing?
The hair should be about 3 to 5 millimetres long, so do not shave for around two to three weeks. On the day of the treatment, do not apply cream and do not exfoliate. A gentle exfoliation one to two days beforehand helps against ingrown hairs.
What should I keep in mind after waxing?
For the first 24 hours, avoid sun, sauna, solarium, hot baths and tight clothing as far as possible. From the second or third day, exfoliate gently and moisturise the skin regularly so that hairs do not grow in.
What helps against ingrown hairs?
Regular, gentle exfoliation and moisturising care. If you often have ingrown hairs, you can get advice on laser hair removal; after several sessions, fewer hairs usually grow back.
Do you offer Brazilian waxing?
Yes, as a Brazilian bikini with or without the buttock crease, with warm wax or with sugar paste. We work discreetly, hygienically and in a quiet private room.
Do you also offer waxing for men?
