As an answer to the ingrown hairs and red bumps that some women experience after a bikini wax, the vajacial is design to soothe and beautify the area.
First came the vajazzle, now get ready a more indulgent modern beauty treatment – the vajacial.
The quest for perfect skin has gone to a new frontier with a facial for vaginas.
As an answer to the ingrown hairs and red bumps that some women experience after a bikini wax, the vajacial is design to soothe and beautify the area.
Thanks to The Only Way Is Essex introducing the vajazzle to the public, British women are more focused than ever on their nether regions.
The original trend: Beautician Amy Childs applies a vajazzle to Sam Faiers on The Only Way Is Essex. The trend for beautifying the bikini area has now moved on to the ‘vajacial’
But across the pond, Vajacials are taking off in a big way too.
In San Francisco Stript Wax Bar owner Katherine Goldman said that demand for the service has increased 30 percent each year since she started offering it in 2010.
Her wax bar offers the ‘key needs’ of the modern waxed woman.
Apparently this requires a papaya enzyme mask, a cleanse and extraction of ingrown hairs with a pair of tweezers.
All in all the treatment takes 50 minutes of focused cleansing and smoothing.
They are particularly beneficial after a Brazilian wax, to make sure the area looks perfect after the heavy-duty procedure.
Yet more maintenance: The vajacial is the latest beauty regime that women can now undertake as well as regular hair removal
At the Stript Bar one of three options is available: anti-freckle, anti-acne or calming to reduce redness.
The Vajacial was a ‘lifesaver’ for Christina from San Francisco, she told ABC news. She was heading off on her honeymoon trip when she realised her usual Brazilian wax had gone wrong.
Her bikini area broke out in red bumps. ‘It looked like I had an STD,’ she said. ‘There was no way I could sit by the pool, nothing.’
So she, like many American women, opted for a Vajacial, a term that Stript Wax Bar has now trademarked.
However, other salons around the US offer the service under different names. One New York salon calls it a Peach Smoothie.
Alexis Wolfer, editor of TheBeautyBean.com told ABC News, that the Vajacial and its spinoffs result from ‘the trend of women hyper-focusing on every last flaw in themselves.’
Stript owner Katherine Goldman insisted ‘Your ‘little lady’ will thank us!’
