When it comes to Bikini Wax hair removal many of us are unaware of different styles and often get confused with its lingos.

Bikini Waxing may be among the popular vogues for Women but it could not be said the same of its lingos and styles and hopefully we would be able to clear those grey areas.

Salons have played it safe and have adhered to broader categories. Most of the  Salons including us in Richmond have made room for just Brazilian & Bikini in our Catalogue, whereas other types and styles are yet to gain its exclusivity.

Without further ado, let’s dive into each one of those styles exclusively.
