Beauty Tonic offers professional waxing services for smooth, long lasting results. We provide a full range of waxing treatments including facial waxing, arm and leg waxing, bikini options and combination packages. Our therapists use quality wax, gentle techniques and a careful approach that reduces discomfort and gives a clean, polished finish.
Waxing removes hair from the root, which means slower regrowth and smoother skin compared to shaving. Most clients enjoy results that last four to six weeks depending on their hair growth cycle. Whether you want maintenance waxing or a full body refresh, Nikki delivers reliable, hygienic treatments in a comfortable and welcoming space.
We are based in Hastings and provide waxing services to clients across Havelock North, Napier and the wider Hawke’s Bay region.

What to Expect During Your Waxing Appointment
Your therapist will begin with a brief consultation to understand your preferences and any sensitivities. The area is cleansed and prepared before the wax is applied. High quality wax is used to ensure effective hair removal with reduced irritation. A tea tree lotion is then applied to calm & soothe the skin.
Waxing is suitable for most skin types. If you have had a reaction to waxing in the past, please let your therapist know so the treatment can be tailored accordingly.
Appointments are efficient and discreet, with your comfort always a priority.

Aftercare Tips
To protect the skin and reduce irritation after waxing, follow these steps:
- Avoid hot showers, saunas and steam for the first 24 hours
- Avoid heavy sweating and vigorous exercise for the first day
- Wear loose clothing to reduce friction
- Avoid tanning, sunbeds and direct sun exposure for 24 hours
- Do not exfoliate the area for at least two days
- Use a gentle moisturiser to soothe the skin
- After 48 hours, exfoliate lightly every few days to reduce ingrown hairs
FAQ
Most waxing results last two to six weeks depending on your natural hair growth cycle and the area being treated.
There is some discomfort, but it is brief. Your therapist uses quality wax and gentle techniques to minimise pain. Regular waxing usually becomes more comfortable over time.
Hair should be around half a centimetre long, roughly the length of a grain of rice. This allows the wax to grip the hair properly for smooth results.
Yes. Many clients with sensitive skin choose waxing. Let your therapist know before the appointment so the treatment can be tailored to your needs.
Exfoliate gently after 48 hours and repeat every few days. Keep the skin moisturised and avoid tight clothing immediately after waxing.
Yes, but the area may be more sensitive. Wear a clean tampon or menstrual cup for bikini waxing.
A Bikini Line wax removes hair from the sides and top of the bikini area. A G-String wax removes more hair and creates a neater shape while keeping some coverage.
Light exfoliation the day before helps remove dead skin and lifts the hairs, but avoid exfoliating on the same day as your appointment.
It is best to avoid exercise for the first 24 hours to prevent irritation and reduce sweating in the freshly waxed area.
Yes. Waxing is safe during pregnancy, although the skin may be more sensitive. Your therapist will ensure you are comfortable throughout the treatment.
No. Waxing does not make hair grow back thicker. Many clients find the opposite happens and regrowth becomes softer and finer over time.
