Waxing removes unwanted hair from the root using warm wax, leaving skin smooth for 3–4 weeks — longer-lasting than shaving with less regrowth stubble. It works on virtually any area of the body, from the face to legs, arms, back, and bikini line. At Simy’s Brow Bar and Glow Bar in Fort Lauderdale, we offer full-body waxing services alongside our signature brow threading, so you can handle your entire hair-removal routine in one visit.
Checking for sensitivity, recent sun exposure, active breakouts, or any medications (e.g., retinoids) that may affect suitability for waxing that day.
the treatment area is cleansed and, if needed, trimmed to an optimal length for wax to grip properly.
warm wax is applied in the direction of hair growth using a spatula or roller, sized appropriately to the area being treated.
Wax is removed in a quick motion against hair growth direction, pulling hair from the root.
A calming balm, aloe, or oil is applied to reduce redness and prevent ingrown hairs.
Stray hairs are cleaned up and the area is checked for evenness before you leave.
Targets fine or coarse hair on the upper lip, chin, or across the full face. Best for clients wanting smooth skin without daily shaving stubble on delicate facial areas.
Removes hair from the full arm or half-arm (below elbow), leaving smoother, finer-looking skin than shaving provides, with regrowth that's softer and less prickly.
Covers full leg or half-leg (upper or lower) hair removal, popular for clients wanting weeks of smooth skin before switching to shorts, dresses, or swimwear season.
Removes hair along the bikini line for a clean edge under swimwear or underwear — a more conservative service than a full Brazilian, focused on visible areas only.
Removes hair from the upper and/or lower back, commonly requested by male clients or anyone with dense back hair growth that's hard to reach or shave themselves.
A comprehensive session covering multiple areas in one visit — commonly face, arms, legs, and bikini together — for clients wanting a complete hair-removal routine without booking separate appointments.
