What waxing services does Haku offer?
Full-body waxing at both Ranelagh and Blackrock — facial waxing, brows, underarms, arms, legs, and intimate waxing — performed by experienced therapists in private treatment rooms with professional-grade wax chosen for sensitive skin.
How long should hair be before waxing?
About half a centimetre — roughly two to three weeks of growth — lets the wax grip properly for the cleanest result. Exfoliate gently a day or two before, skip moisturiser on the day, and results typically last three to four weeks.
Does waxing hurt, and how can I make it easier?
There's a sting, but a practiced therapist with good wax makes it brief and very manageable — far gentler than home kits. Avoid caffeine right before, don't book during the first days of your period when skin is most sensitive, and regular waxing genuinely gets easier as regrowth softens.
Can I wax if I use retinol or have had a peel?
Not immediately — retinoids, acids and recent peels or laser make skin too fragile for facial waxing. Pause retinol for around a week before a facial wax, and tell your therapist about any actives or treatments; we'd always rather adapt the plan than damage your skin.
