Why wax your legs?

Waxing removes hair from the root rather than cutting it at the surface, so results last far longer than shaving, and there's no stubbly regrowth in a day or two. Soft wax is ideal for legs because it spreads thinly over large areas and clears fine-to-medium hair efficiently. Pair it with a wax kit and the right accessories for a smooth routine.

Prep, wax and aftercare

Start with clean, dry skin and hair a few millimetres long. Apply the wax in the direction of hair growth and remove against it, keeping the pull close and parallel to the skin. Afterwards, soothe with an aftercare oil or lotion. Avoid waxing over broken, irritated or sunburnt skin, and if you use retinoids, tretinoin or strong exfoliating actives, pause them well before waxing, as they thin the skin's surface. If you have a skin condition or any doubt, check with a professional first.

FAQs

How long does leg waxing last?

Because hair is removed from the root, results last for weeks rather than the day or two you get from shaving, and regrowth often feels finer over time.

Does leg waxing hurt?

There's some sensation, especially the first few times, but it becomes more comfortable as hair grows back finer. Clean, taut skin and a close, confident pull help a lot.

Can I wax if I use retinoids or strong actives?

It's best not to. Retinoids, tretinoin and strong exfoliants thin the skin's surface, so pause them well before waxing and seek advice if unsure.

How long does my hair need to be to wax?

Around a few millimetres, long enough for the wax to grip. If it's too short, the wax can't lift it cleanly.
