How long does bikini hair removal with Lycon take?
Lycon hard wax bikini waxing usually takes between 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the type of treatment and the client’s individual needs. The duration may vary based on the area being waxed, the density and length of the hair, and the level of precision required to achieve the desired results. Lycon waxing is known for its precision and gentleness, which enhances both comfort and effectiveness.
Types of bikini waxing and duration
Classic bikini waxing – This involves removing hair from areas visible outside the underwear line. The procedure typically takes around 20-30 minutes.
Deep (Brazilian) bikini waxing – This includes the removal of most or all hair in the intimate areas, including the buttocks. This treatment takes 30 to 40 minutes due to the need for greater precision and work in hard-to-reach areas.
French bikini waxing – A mid-range treatment between classic and Brazilian waxing, where some hair is left in selected areas. It usually takes around 25-35 minutes.
Californian bikini waxing – This involves removing hair from areas outside the underwear line and about 2-3 centimeters inward. The procedure typically takes around 20 minutes.
Factors affecting the duration of waxing
Hair density and length
Thicker and denser hair can extend the treatment time as it requires more careful application and removal of the wax. In some cases, several layers of wax may need to be applied to remove all the hair.
Skin condition and preparation
When the skin is well-prepared (cleaned and moisturized), the wax adheres better to the hair, which shortens the treatment time. Dry or poorly prepared skin can extend the procedure, as the wax may have difficulty effectively gripping and removing the hair.
Type of wax
Lycon wax requires a short time to harden before removal (about 30 seconds). Its flexibility allows for large sections of wax to be removed at once, speeding up the process. Compared to soft wax, which is removed with strips, the Lycon method is more precise but may take slightly longer for areas requiring special attention.
Experience of the beautician
A skilled professional with experience in using Lycon wax can significantly reduce the treatment time while maintaining accuracy and ensuring client comfort.
Preparation for the procedure and its impact on duration
To ensure a smooth and effective waxing session, it is recommended to:
- Maintain the appropriate hair length (between 0.3 and 1 cm).
- Avoid using heavy cosmetic products on the area to be waxed on the day of the treatment.
- Perform regular exfoliation to prevent ingrown hairs and facilitate their removal.
Benefits of Lycon waxing
Although Lycon waxing may take slightly longer than traditional methods, its benefits include:
- Reduced pain due to the wax adhering to the hair rather than the skin.
- Effectiveness in removing even short hairs.
- Minimal irritation – thanks to the protective layer of oil that prevents direct contact between the wax and the skin.
Our opinion
Lycon bikini waxing typically takes between 20 and 40 minutes and is one of the gentlest and most effective hair removal methods. While the treatment time may vary depending on the type of waxing and individual factors, the smooth skin effect and minimal irritation make the time spent well worth it.
