Video transcript

A French wax procedure involves the removal of hair from the front and sides of the bikini area, leaving a small vertical strip or triangle. Unlike a Brazilian wax, a French wax does not include removing hair from the area between the buttocks. This method is ideal for those who want a clean appearance but prefer to leave a bit of hair. For best results, ensure the hair is about a quarter-inch long before your appointment.
