Stomach waxing at Mesmerising Beauty covers the entire abdominal area from just below the chest to the belly button region and lower abdomen, typically extending to the waistline. This includes the area around the navel and can be customized to include the upper abdomen if desired. The treatment is designed to remove unwanted hair from the midsection, creating a smooth, clean appearance. We tailor the coverage area to your specific needs and preferences during your consultation. Whether you have a small snail trail or more extensive stomach hair, our experienced therapists at our Newcastle salon adapt the treatment accordingly. The 20-minute session provides thorough coverage while ensuring your comfort throughout. Many clients combine stomach waxing with chest or back waxing for comprehensive body grooming.

Stomach waxing sensitivity varies by individual, but most clients find it moderately comfortable. The stomach area can be more sensitive than some other body parts, particularly around the belly button and lower abdomen where skin is thinner. However, at Mesmerising Beauty in Newcastle, we use professional-grade warm wax that adheres primarily to hair rather than skin, significantly reducing discomfort. Our experienced therapists apply proper technique, working quickly and efficiently to minimize pain. First-time clients may experience more sensitivity, but this typically decreases with regular treatments as hair grows back finer and sparser. Taking an over-the-counter pain reliever 30 minutes before your appointment can help if you're concerned. Most clients describe the sensation as a brief, sharp pulling feeling that quickly subsides. The entire treatment takes just 20 minutes, making any discomfort very short-lived.

Proper preparation ensures optimal results from your stomach waxing treatment at our Newcastle salon. Your hair should be at least 1/4 inch long (approximately the length of a grain of rice) or about 2-3 weeks of growth for the wax to grip effectively. Gently exfoliate the stomach area 24-48 hours before your appointment to remove dead skin cells and help prevent ingrown hairs. Avoid applying lotions, oils, or heavy moisturizers on the day of treatment, as these create a barrier preventing proper wax adhesion. Come with clean, dry skin—showering before your appointment is ideal. Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that won't rub against your freshly waxed stomach afterward. Avoid sun exposure or tanning beds for 24 hours before waxing, as tanned or sunburned skin is more sensitive. If you're menstruating, you may be more sensitive to pain, so consider scheduling around your cycle if possible. Taking ibuprofen 30 minutes beforehand can help reduce discomfort.

Stomach waxing typically provides smooth, hair-free results lasting 3-6 weeks, depending on your individual hair growth cycle and hormonal factors. Most clients enjoy approximately 4 weeks of smooth skin before regrowth becomes noticeable. Results longevity varies based on genetics, hormonal levels, age, and waxing frequency. With consistent appointments every 4-6 weeks at our Newcastle salon, you'll notice that stomach hair grows back progressively finer, sparser, and slower, potentially extending the smooth period even longer. Unlike shaving, which cuts hair at the surface and causes stubbly regrowth within days, waxing removes hair from the root for dramatically longer-lasting smoothness. First-time waxing clients may experience slightly shorter-lasting results initially as hair growth cycles synchronize with regular treatments. For optimal results and longest-lasting smoothness, maintain a regular waxing schedule rather than switching between shaving and waxing, which disrupts the hair growth cycle.

Stomach waxing at Mesmerising Beauty in Newcastle costs £15 for a complete 20-minute treatment. This affordable price includes the entire abdominal area from chest to waistline, providing thorough coverage and smooth results. Our experienced therapists use professional-grade warm wax and proper technique to ensure efficient, effective hair removal. The 20-minute appointment allows sufficient time for proper application and removal without rushing, ensuring complete coverage and your comfort throughout the treatment. We recommend booking appointments every 4-6 weeks to maintain smooth results and take advantage of the cumulative benefits of regular waxing. For clients interested in multiple areas, we can combine stomach waxing with chest or back waxing in a single appointment—please mention your requirements when booking at 0191 285 5055. Many clients find that combining treatments provides better value and convenience.

Proper aftercare is crucial for maintaining smooth results and preventing complications after stomach waxing. For the first 24-48 hours, avoid hot showers, baths, saunas, steam rooms, and swimming pools, as heat and chlorine can irritate freshly waxed skin and increase infection risk. Skip intense exercise and activities causing excessive sweating for 24 hours, as sweat can irritate open hair follicles. Avoid direct sun exposure and tanning beds for at least 48 hours, as waxed skin is more vulnerable to sun damage and hyperpigmentation. Don't apply heavily fragranced products, perfumes, or deodorants to the waxed area for 24 hours, as these can cause irritation. Refrain from exfoliating or using harsh scrubs for 48 hours to allow your skin time to recover. Wear loose, breathable cotton clothing to minimize friction against the waxed stomach area. After the initial 48-hour period, gentle exfoliation 2-3 times weekly helps prevent ingrown hairs. Keep the area moisturized with a gentle, fragrance-free lotion or aloe vera gel to soothe skin and maintain smoothness.

For optimal results, we recommend scheduling stomach waxing appointments every 4-6 weeks. This timing allows sufficient hair regrowth for effective waxing while maintaining consistently smooth skin. Regular appointments on this schedule also provide cumulative benefits—hair grows back progressively finer, sparser, and slower over time, making treatments more comfortable and extending smoothness between sessions. If you're new to waxing, you might notice regrowth sooner initially (around 3-4 weeks) as your hair growth cycles synchronize. After several consistent treatments at our Newcastle salon, you may be able to extend the time between appointments to 5-6 weeks. Avoid letting hair grow too long between appointments, as this can make the treatment more uncomfortable. Similarly, don't wax too frequently (less than 3 weeks apart), as this doesn't allow sufficient regrowth for effective removal. Maintaining a consistent schedule rather than alternating between waxing and shaving produces the best long-term results and ensures your stomach stays smooth year-round.
