Men's Waxing FAQs


This page is intended to ease the worries of any of you blokes who are a bit nervous about waxing. We want you to know that the service(s) you’re interested in are perfectly safe and normal. For years, men have been removing body hair for a number of reasons such as athletics, a desire to feel sexier, etc. In fact, male waxing has become hugely popular in many salons and spas. From drill sergeants to famous athletes, dads, and A-list actors, more and more chaps are choosing to wax over any other hair removal method. Less irritating than shaving and more attractive than buzzing down, waxing also lasts a heck of a lot longer, cutting down on your daily hair removal regimen.

Still have questions? We’ve answered some of the most common ones here:

I’ve tried waxing my back and chest but those areas always break out with little red and white angry spots. What can I do to prevent this from happening?

Unfortunately this is quite common, especially on men with sensitive skin or coarse hair and deep roots. Many men only break out the first couple of times they wax. Once a person’s skin gets used to regular exfoliation and hair removal, breakouts often stop. We also take many precautions to prevent breakouts: After a wax, we treat the skin with antiseptic and antibacterial products. After this, we apply an additional solution to soothe irritation. We also recommend taking home a bottle of our Anti-Bac Attack and Buzz Off Bumps to further prevent these little breakouts from occurring.

What’s up with male bikini waxing? I manscape my nether regions, but I’m wondering what’s involved in the BroZilian.

There are many reasons men, both straight and gay, choose to wax their bits. Some men have partners who prefer it, others like to feel clean, and many men who are athletic need those areas cleaned up for hygiene and safety reasons. We look at male bikini waxing the same way we view female bikini waxing: that it’s a perfectly acceptable form of grooming. Yes, there might be some discomfort associated with it. See How to Prepare (below) and follow our instructions for minimizing pain. If you’re nervous, ease yourself into male bikini waxing slowly by starting with a Butt Reynolds or Crack Daddy. It’s your body, you’re the customer, and we will do everything we can to make it a good experience! Our Bum-Ball Bees are all well trained and have a loyal male client following.
