What is a Hollywood wax?
Quick Answer
A Hollywood wax is the complete removal of all pubic hair from the intimate area, including the front, sides, labia, perineum, and intergluteal cleft. Unlike a Brazilian wax which typically leaves a small strip or triangle of hair, Hollywood waxing results in a completely bare finish with zero hair remaining.
Comprehensive Answer
Complete Hair Removal Explained
Hollywood waxing represents the most thorough option for intimate hair removal available in professional salons. This treatment removes every single hair from the entire pubic region, creating a completely smooth, hair-free result from front to back. The service addresses all zones within the intimate area without exception.
The term "Hollywood" originated from the aesthetic preferences reportedly favored in the entertainment industry, where complete hair removal became popular for performance and costume purposes. Today, Hollywood waxing appeals to individuals seeking maximum smoothness, those who prefer the aesthetic of no visible hair, and people who find maintenance easier without any hair regrowth to manage.
At Mesmerising Beauty, Hollywood waxing follows the same meticulous process as Brazilian waxing but continues through all areas without leaving any hair behind. The treatment requires the same level of skill, care, and attention to client comfort, using premium waxes specifically formulated for sensitive intimate skin.
How Hollywood Differs from Other Intimate Waxing
Understanding the distinctions between waxing variations helps you choose the service that best matches your preferences. A standard bikini wax only tidies hair visible outside underwear or swimwear lines, leaving most pubic hair intact. An extended bikini wax ventures slightly further inward but still maintains substantial hair coverage.
Brazilian waxing removes most hair from the intimate area but conventionally leaves a small decorative strip, triangle, or landing strip at the front. The exact shape and size of this remaining hair varies based on client preference, but some hair deliberately stays in place. This option appeals to those wanting thorough hair removal while maintaining a small amount of natural coverage.
Hollywood waxing eliminates this remaining strip entirely, removing absolutely all hair for a completely bare result. For some clients, this total removal feels cleaner and requires less maintenance decision-making. Others prefer Brazilian waxing's small remaining section for aesthetic reasons or because complete removal feels too bare for their comfort.
Who Chooses Hollywood Waxing
Hollywood waxing attracts diverse clientele for various personal reasons. Athletes, particularly swimmers, cyclists, and gymnasts, often prefer complete hair removal for comfort and performance advantages in their sports. Individuals who engage in activities requiring close-fitting clothing or uniforms may find Hollywood waxing eliminates any concerns about visible hair.
Some clients simply prefer the aesthetic of complete smoothness and find zero hair growth easier to maintain than managing a small remaining section. The growing-back phase becomes more uniform without the contrast between waxed and retained hair areas. This can make the maintenance cycle feel more consistent and predictable.
Personal comfort and hygiene preferences also drive Hollywood waxing choices. While pubic hair serves natural purposes, some individuals feel cleaner or more comfortable without it, particularly in warm climates or during menstruation. These are entirely valid personal preferences that professional salons respect and accommodate.

Expert Insight from Yogita
As a beauty specialist with 25+ years of experience, I've seen Hollywood waxing grow from a niche request to a popular standard option. Many first-time intimate waxing clients are unsure whether to choose Brazilian or Hollywood - I always explain that you can try Brazilian first and request complete removal during the same appointment if you change your mind. The process is identical; the only difference is whether we leave that small front section or remove it entirely. At Mesmerising Beauty, we make sure you're completely comfortable with your choice before proceeding.
Why this matters: Yogita's extensive experience means she understands client preferences evolve and helps you make the right choice without pressure. Her flexible approach allows you to adjust your decision even during treatment, ensuring you receive exactly the result you desire. This client-centered service creates confidence and satisfaction with your final outcome.
