Waxing
Waxing in King’s Cross
Our treatment rooms are on Caledonian Road, a 5-minute walk from King’s Cross station. We are open every day, 10:30 AM – 9:00 PM. We wax face and body for women and men, from an upper lip to a Hollywood, in a private room with the door closed.
Every area below shows its length and its price. Tapping one opens WhatsApp with those details already written, so you can ask about a time without filling in a form.
Before you come in
Let the hair grow to about the length of a grain of rice, which is usually 2 to 3 weeks. Wax needs something to hold on to, and a very short regrowth is the most common reason a wax does not last. If it has grown longer than that, come anyway and we will trim first.
Avoid scrubs, retinol and strong acids on the area for a couple of days beforehand, and skip the sunbed. Tell your therapist if you are using anything prescribed for your skin, or if you are pregnant, because both change what we recommend on the day.
Waxing is more comfortable when you are not rushing. Give yourself a few minutes either side, and say if you would like us to work more slowly or take a break — every therapist here would rather stop for a moment than have you grit your teeth through it.

Afterwards
The skin often stays pink for a few hours, and sometimes a day. For the first 24 hours, leave hot baths, saunas, swimming pools and the gym alone, and keep perfumed products off the area.
From about the third day, exfoliating gently two or three times a week is what keeps hairs from growing back into the skin. Waxing every 3 to 4 weeks keeps you on the same growth cycle, which is what makes each appointment quicker than the last.
If anything looks inflamed rather than pink, or does not settle in a day or two, speak to a pharmacist or your doctor. We are a salon and we will tell you when something is outside what we can help with.

Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
Where are you?
We are at 72-74 Caledonian Road, King's Cross, London, N1 9DN, a 5-minute walk from King's Cross St Pancras.
What are your opening hours?
We are open every day from 10:30am to 9:00pm.
How much is a Hollywood or Brazilian wax?
A Hollywood is £40 for 40 minutes and a Brazilian is £35 for 30 minutes. Booked with a full leg wax, the Hollywood is £70 and the Brazilian is £65. Every area and price is listed on this page.
How long should the hair be?
About the length of a grain of rice, which is usually 2 to 3 weeks of growth. Shorter than that and the wax has nothing to hold; much longer is fine, and we can trim it first.
Do you wax men as well?
Yes. Back, shoulder and chest waxing are on this page, and intimate waxing for men is by arrangement — please call before booking that one.
Can I walk in without booking?
Yes, and people do. We still suggest messaging first, because you may have to wait when the rooms are full.
Do you come to my home or hotel?
No. Every treatment is done at the shop, with no exceptions.
