The Manscaping Oasis specializes in providing men’s grooming and full body hair removal. Whether you prefer trimming, shaving, waxing, or laser removal, I strive to provide the best manscaping results.
Working with a professional to groom your body hair has many advantages. Among them is to emphasize your best physique. By using contouring techniques, we are able to accentuate muscle definition. The end result will be natural and aesthetically pleasing. An added bonus to grooming with a professional is optimal hygiene.
Body hair seems to get out of control as we get older. If you consider yourself to have an excessive amount of hair and are considering manscaping, trimming is the best method to start with. The gradual removal of the bulk of body hair makes the transition minimal.
Hair may be trimmed in different lengths to achieve a natural look by using a guard from one to four to enhance the peaks and valleys depending on the body type. Those that want an extreme style may opt for trimming without a guard. It is the closest hair removal to the skin without the use of a razor. The biggest advantage in using the trimming method is not feeling the initial hair growth, which happens with shaving.
The modern man typically trims at home. However, to obtain an even trim and a smooth transition between body parts, working with a professional is ideal. During your private session we are able to consult what the best options are for your personal style.
Shaving is removing the hair at the skin surface with a razor. I work with different blades and handles depending on the thickness of the hair, the part of the body, and the stage of the hair growth. The main advantage in shaving is the immediate smoothness of the skin.
Waxing is the most invasive form of hair removal. It is the method that will remove the hair for the longest amount of time because the hair is removed at the root.
After waxing the hair regrowth is between four to six weeks. The factors that affect how fast the hair grows back are the initial hair thickness, the amount of hair in the area, and the condition of the hair at the time of removal.
Preparation: For best results, 24 hours before your appointment shower with a body scrub. This will enable the wax to adhere to the hair easily and durably.
If the hair is extremely long and untidy, please DO NOT TRIM. Since hair grows in several stages, if you trim prior to waxing, there could be a chance that the hair will be too short or too strong. This will cause the hair to break or not come out at all. After working with hundreds of clients, I am proficient in preparing the hair for the best results.
If you are undecided on the method or style, we can discuss which options are best for you before your session starts.
A good option for those with excessive body hair who are looking for a way to effectively reduce or remove hair from both large and small body parts is with laser treatment.
Laser IPL is designed to help break the cycle of hair growth. Light energy is transferred through the skin’s surface and is absorbed by melanin present in the hair shaft. The absorbed light energy is converted to heat energy below the surface of the skin. This in turn disables the hair follicle. Treated hair naturally falls out over the course of a few days up to possibly two weeks depending on the person.
Candidates For IPL: The IPL method is most effective on light to medium skin tones, with hair color ranging from natural blonde to dark brown and black.
Non Candidates For IPL: Individuals with lightest blond, red, gray, or white hair will not achieve optimal results because there is less melanin to absorb the light. Skin tones that are dark brown and black should completely avoid IPL laser because absorption of the light energy may result in hyperpigmentation.
Effectiveness: After three to four sessions, the visible effect of hair reduction and rate of hair growth is apparent. Most clients will see 90% of hair reduction after six to eight treatments depending on the amount of hair and thickness at the start of the IPL hair treatment removal.
Preparation: The area to be treated needs to be shaved 24 hours before the session. Full exposure to the skin without any hair at the surface level is required. Sun exposure, tanning beds, hair removal creams, and tanning products need to be eliminated four weeks before treatment. Waxing sessions need to be completely avoided prior to starting laser removal; as well as through the duration of the six to eight sessions or the hair cycle will be comprised. Shaving between sessions is acceptable and highly encouraged.
Manscaping the pubic hair is a trend that is here to stay. If you’re thinking about trimming it up, you are not alone.
According to a U.S. study, just over half of men surveyed (National Institute of Health) reported regular pubic grooming.
There is no need to feel self-conscious about why you do it neither. Men groom the hedges for numerous reasons. Using a professional that is well-versed in safety, maintenance, and aftercare is the first step.
The type of pubic hair design varies depending on personal preference and level of maintenance.
Briefs: the man’s version of the bikini style. This involves removing all hair that physically appears outside of the briefs.
Lion’s mane: removing all the hair from the testes, the base of the penis, and the perineum. The hair on the pubic bone may be trimmed, but not completely removed. Visually this style will make the penis appear larger.
Trimmed: trimming the hair with a guard to a shorter length so as to have full coverage but with shorter hair. This is a great option for the individual that does not want to have bare skin, only minimal hair length.
Minimalist: shaving all the hair above the penis while leaving the hair on the testes and the base of the penis.
Horizontal landing strip: shaving the hair on the sides of the pubic bone. The hair around the penis and the testes will not be removed. Visually this style gives the appearance of a landing strip just above the penis.
Bare: all the hair is completely removed from the genital area. This style may also extend to the anal area.
