1. It’s older than you think
Women in ancient Egypt used beeswax and sugar-based pastes to remove hair — making waxing thousands of years old.
2. The Brazilian made it big
The Brazilian wax got its name from seven Brazilian sisters who popularized the style when they opened a salon in Manhattan in the late 80s.
3. It’s not just for summer
Many people keep up bikini waxes all year, not just for beach season — it’s also about feeling confident and clean.
4. Different styles, different names
Beyond the classic bikini wax and Brazilian, there’s also the French wax, Hollywood wax, and even creative shapes or “vajazzling.”
5. Hair grows back softer (kind of)
While waxing doesn’t change hair texture permanently, new growth often feels finer and softer because it’s regrowing with tapered ends.
6. Men wax too
Male bikini and Brazilian waxing — sometimes called “manzilian” — has grown in popularity worldwide.
7. Sugar can do the trick
Sugaring, a hair removal method similar to waxing but gentler on skin, is especially popular for sensitive bikini areas.
8. It can be quick
An experienced esthetician can do a full bikini wax in about 15 to 30 minutes.
9. It exfoliates too
Waxing removes dead skin cells along with hair, often leaving skin feeling smoother than shaving.
10. Pain is part of the legend
Yes, it can sting — but most people say the discomfort lessens over time as hair grows back finer and sparser.
✨ Bikini waxing isn’t just about style — it’s a blend of history, technique and personal preference.
