BIKINI WAX FAQ — Shortpump Threading & Wax Studio

Is a bikini wax painful?

Bikini waxing involves mild, quick discomfort during each pull, especially for first-time clients. With regular waxing, hair grows back finer, making sessions easier over time. Our premium hard wax helps reduce discomfort by gripping hair—not skin.

What’s the difference between a bikini wax and a Brazilian wax?

A bikini wax removes hair outside the underwear line and along the sides. Options include:
■ Regular Bikini
■ Extended Bikini
■ Deep Bikini

A Brazilian wax removes all hair from front to back. Our aestheticians guide you in choosing the best option based on comfort and personal preference.

Is the bikini waxing service private?

Yes — all bikini waxing services are 100% private. Treatments are performed in closed rooms with professional draping, uninterrupted one-on-one care, and a respectful, judgement-free approach.

Will the aesthetician judge me?

Never. We welcome clients of all body types, skin tones, and grooming preferences. Your comfort, dignity, and confidence are always our top priorities.

What hygiene protocols do you follow?

We maintain medical-grade hygiene standards, including fresh gloves for every client, strict no double-dipping, disposable spatulas only, sanitized beds and tools, fresh linens for each session, and hypoallergenic wax suitable for sensitive skin.

How should I prepare for my bikini wax?

Hair should be approximately ¼ inch long. Exfoliate gently 24 hours before your appointment, avoid caffeine for 2–3 hours beforehand, wear loose clothing, and take a warm shower before arriving.

Can I get a bikini wax during my period?

Yes. As long as you are comfortable and using a tampon or menstrual cup, bikini waxing can be performed. Sensitivity may be slightly higher during this time.

What should I avoid after a bikini wax?

For 24 hours after waxing, avoid gym workouts, hot showers, swimming, saunas, tight clothing, and heavy friction. Since pores remain open, proper aftercare helps prevent irritation.

How long does a bikini wax last?

Bikini waxing results typically last 3–4 weeks, depending on your hair growth cycle. With consistent waxing, regrowth becomes slower and finer.

Do you offer bikini waxing for men and women?

Yes. We are a gender-inclusive studio offering bikini waxing for women and male bikini waxing (including thigh folds, sides, and upper pubic area), performed by experienced professionals in a discreet environment.

HEAR FROM OUR HAPPY CUSTOMERS

Curating some of the top experience shared by our happy clients

This is the place I recommend everyone around in Richmond, if they are looking to taste Complete wax for the first time. I really like their consulting based approach, pretty upfront. Though costs are on par with European wax, I wouldn’t mind spending a dollar or two extra, as they spend more time to ensure we have a good after experience and suggest a proper follow -up. Must thank them for making my life look easy.

Vance Smith

I must confess, I’ve never had a single bad experience in my last five years with Shortpump. Why because they really care about customers and haven’t gone after dollars like how these big waxing places do in the name of franchises. My go to place for Swimline Waxing and eyebrows as well. Same-Day Appointments, Natural Wax, Amiable nature of the staffs, they make sure come out refreshed. If you’re searching for a Waxing place in Richmond, just dial them and thank me later. I think they do Men’s waxing and Complete as well.
