Hollywood Wax in Colchester
£35
Completely smooth, completely confident — intimate hair removal at its most thorough.
A Hollywood wax removes all hair from the intimate area — front, back, and everything in between — leaving the skin completely smooth and hair-free. For clients across Colchester and Essex, Martina Henry offers this treatment at her private studio in Colchester, carried out in complete privacy and a calm, dedicated treatment space. The private studio format is particularly valued for more intimate treatments, as it removes entirely the self-consciousness that some clients associate with busy salon environments.
Martina brings a calm, professional, and completely non-judgmental approach to intimate waxing. She has extensive experience performing Hollywood waxes and understands that the key to a comfortable experience — both physically and emotionally — lies in professional technique, quality products, and creating a genuinely relaxed atmosphere for her clients. She uses professional hard wax throughout, which is the gold standard for intimate waxing due to its significantly more comfortable removal process compared to strip wax.
Clients across Colchester who have their Hollywood wax performed regularly by Martina find that the treatment becomes progressively easier and more comfortable over time as regrowth becomes finer and sparser. Many clients who were initially apprehensive about their first Hollywood wax go on to make it a regular part of their beauty maintenance routine. Martina’s professionalism, warmth, and skilled technique make this one of her most highly reviewed treatments.
What Is a Hollywood Wax?
A Hollywood wax is the most comprehensive form of intimate hair removal available, removing all hair from the pubic area — including the labia, perineum, and perianal area — leaving the skin completely smooth and hair-free. It is the most complete version of intimate waxing, with no hair left behind anywhere in the treatment zone.
Martina performs the entire treatment using professional hard wax, which is applied in small sections, allowed to set, and then removed cleanly without a strip. Hard wax is the preferred choice for intimate waxing because it grips the hair without bonding to the skin, making removal considerably more comfortable and far less likely to cause bruising or lifting of the skin. The treatment takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes and results typically last between three and five weeks.
Key Benefits
Complete Hair Removal From the Entire Intimate Area
A Hollywood wax removes all hair from the front, sides, and back of the intimate area, leaving skin completely smooth and clean with no patches or partially treated sections.
Hard Wax for Maximum Comfort
Professional hard wax adheres to the hair rather than the skin, making the removal process significantly more comfortable than strip wax for this particularly sensitive area of the body.
Smooth Results for Three to Five Weeks
As waxing removes hair from the root, regrowth takes three to five weeks to become noticeable — a significant improvement over the short-lived results of shaving or depilatory creams.
Fully Private Studio Treatment
Having your Hollywood wax performed at Martina's private studio creates a far more relaxed and comfortable experience than attending a busy clinic, making the treatment more accessible for all clients.
Progressively Less Uncomfortable Over Time
Consistent waxing weakens the hair follicle over time. Regular clients find that their Hollywood wax becomes noticeably quicker and more comfortable with each successive appointment.
What to Expect
1
Confidential Consultation
Martina discusses the treatment, confirms your desired result, and checks for any contraindications in a completely confidential and professional manner before beginning.
2
Area Preparation
The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed and a pre-wax powder applied to protect the skin and ensure the best possible adhesion of the hard wax to the hair.
3
Hard Wax Application and Removal
Professional hard wax is applied methodically across the entire treatment area in small sections, allowed to set, and removed swiftly and cleanly in the direction of hair growth.
4
Back and Perianal Area
Martina works through all sections of the treatment area — front, sides, and back — ensuring thorough and complete coverage throughout the entire intimate area.
5
Soothing Post-Wax Treatment
A calming, anti-inflammatory post-wax product is applied across the entire treated area to soothe the skin, reduce redness, and leave you feeling comfortable and confident.
Results & Aftercare
After your Hollywood wax, the skin will be completely smooth and hair-free, with results lasting between three and five weeks. Redness and sensitivity are normal immediately after treatment and will settle within a few hours. Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear for the remainder of the day and avoid tight clothing, exercise, hot baths, swimming, sunbeds, and sexual activity for 24 hours after your appointment.
From 48 hours onwards, begin gently exfoliating the area two to three times per week to prevent ingrown hairs. Apply a soothing, alcohol-free moisturiser regularly to keep the skin soft and prevent irritation. Never shave between appointments, as this interferes with the progressive benefits of regular waxing. Most clients find that booking every four to five weeks maintains a consistent result.
Who Is It For?
A Hollywood wax is suitable for anyone who wants to be completely smooth in the intimate area. It is a popular choice for holidays, special occasions, and for clients who simply prefer the clean, hair-free feeling as a regular part of their personal care routine. The private studio format makes it accessible to clients who would feel uncomfortable with this treatment in a clinical setting.
Clients who are pregnant may find this treatment more uncomfortable due to increased skin sensitivity, and should consult their midwife before booking. Those using isotretinoin (Roaccutane) or topical retinoids cannot have waxing anywhere on the body. Martina screens for all relevant contraindications during the consultation to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for each individual client.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a Hollywood and a Brazilian wax?
A Hollywood wax removes all hair from the entire intimate area — front, back, and everything between. A Brazilian wax removes most of the hair but leaves a small strip or triangle at the front. The Hollywood is the most complete intimate waxing option available.
How painful is a Hollywood wax?
The intimate area is sensitive, so some discomfort is to be expected on the first few appointments. Martina uses professional hard wax to minimise this as much as possible. Most clients find it very manageable, and the discomfort reduces significantly with regular waxing over time.
How do I prepare for my Hollywood wax?
Allow the hair to grow to at least 5mm before your appointment. Exfoliate the area 24 to 48 hours beforehand to help loosen any surface dead skin cells. Arrive clean and avoid applying any moisturiser or oil to the area on the day of your appointment.
Is it normal to feel self-conscious about this treatment?
Completely — and it is very common, especially for first-time clients. Martina is professional, warm, and completely non-judgmental. She performs this treatment regularly and her priority is always to make you feel as comfortable and at ease as possible throughout.
How long will results last after a Hollywood wax?
Results typically last between three and five weeks, depending on your natural hair growth rate. With regular waxing over several months, many clients find the regrowth becomes progressively finer and the time between appointments can be extended slightly.
