Waxing + Threading at SHY

A considered approach
to hair removal

At SHY, hair removal is approached with precision, care and attention to skin health. Treatments are selected based on the area, skin sensitivity and desired finish, ensuring results that feel clean, refined and long-lasting.

Hot wax is used for both facial and body treatments. This method adheres to the hair rather than the skin, allowing for effective removal with reduced redness and post-treatment sensitivity. It is particularly suited to delicate and intimate areas, supporting smooth, long-lasting results with minimal irritation.

Hot wax hair removal

Threading is a precise facial hair removal technique that uses a cotton thread to remove hair at the follicle. It creates a clean definition without heat or chemicals, making it ideal for brows and fine facial hair, particularly for those prone to sensitivity or breakouts. The finish is refined, with minimal disruption to the skin barrier.
