Brazilian Wax in West Adams
Smooth, confident, done right. Our Brazilian wax service at Cheeks + Co in West Adams delivers fast, thorough results with gentle hard wax.
WHAT IS A BRAZILIAN WAX
A Brazilian wax removes all hair from the bikini area, front, back, and everything in between. Unlike a bikini wax (which only removes hair visible outside a swimsuit), a Brazilian gives you completely smooth results that last 3-6 weeks.
At Cheeks + Co, we use a very gentle, Italian hard wax, which adheres to hair rather than skin, making it gentler and less painful than traditional soft wax. Our Glow Givers are trained in speed waxing techniques that minimize discomfort while maximizing thoroughness.

what to expect
- air should be at least 1/4 inch long (about 2-3 weeks of growth after shaving)
- Gently exfoliate the area 24 hours before your appointment
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine the day of (they can increase sensitivity)
- Take an over-the-counter pain reliever 30 minutes before if you're nervous
- Avoid scheduling during your period if possible (you're more sensitive then)
Your Glow Giver will ensure you're comfortable and talk you through the process. We work quickly and efficiently—most Brazilians take about 20-30 minutes. We use hard wax in small sections, which is gentler on the skin than strip wax. Is it totally painless? No. But our technique makes it as comfortable as possible, and it gets easier with regular appointments.
AFTER YOUR brazilian wax
- Avoid tight clothing for the rest of the day
- Skip the gym, hot tubs, saunas, and pools for 24 hours
- No exfoliating for 48 hours, then exfoliate 2-3 times per week to prevent ingrowns
- Don't shave between appointments—it disrupts your hair growth cycle
- Rebook in 4-6 weeks for best results
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a Brazilian wax last?
Results typically last 3-6 weeks. With regular waxing, hair grows back finer and sparser over time, and many clients find they can stretch longer between appointments.
Does a Brazilian wax hurt?
Let's be real: it's not a massage. But our hard wax technique is gentler than strip wax, and our Glow Givers are trained in speed waxing to minimize discomfort. Most clients say it's much more manageable than they expected, and it gets easier with each appointment as hair grows back thinner.
I've never had a Brazilian before. Is that okay?
Absolutely! We see first-timers all the time. Just let us know when you book, and your Glow Giver will walk you through everything and go at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
How long should my hair be?
At least 1/4 inch, about the length of a grain of rice, or roughly 2-3 weeks of growth after shaving. If it's too short, the wax can't grip the hair properly.
Can I get a Brazilian on my period?
Technically yes (just wear a fresh tampon), but we recommend scheduling around your cycle if possible. Your skin is more sensitive during your period, which can make waxing more uncomfortable.
What's the difference between hard wax and soft wax?
Hard wax (what we use) adheres to hair, not skin, making it gentler and ideal for sensitive areas. Soft wax adheres to both hair and skin and is removed with a strip, it's often used for larger areas like legs. For Brazilians, hard wax is the gold standard.
