Waxing in Oxford

Smooth, soft, hair-free skin is just one appointment away. At Cannelle Skin Clinic, we specialise in French hot waxing, a premium method designed to be gentler on the skin while delivering superior hair removal results.

Hot wax adheres to the hair rather than the skin, making it ideal for sensitive areas such as the bikini line, underarms and face. Our Oxford-based waxing specialists ensure a comfortable experience with minimal irritation and beautifully smooth results that last.

Waxing or laser hair removal: which suits you?

Waxing gives you smooth skin the same day and works on every hair type and colour. Laser hair removal works across a course of sessions to reduce hair long term. Plenty of clients at Cannelle Skin Clinic in Oxford use both. Here is how they compare.
How they compareFrench Hot WaxingSmooth skin the same dayLaser Hair RemovalSoprano Titanium, long term reduction
Best forFrench Hot Waxing
Smooth, hair-free skin the same day, across the face, arms, legs, back, bottom and intimate areas.
Laser Hair Removal
Long term reduction of unwanted hair on the face, underarms, legs, bikini line, back and chest, for women and men.
How it worksFrench Hot Waxing
Premium French hot wax grips the hair rather than the skin and lifts it out from the root, which is why the skin stays smooth for weeks rather than days.
Laser Hair Removal
The Soprano Titanium laser sends light energy into the follicle, where pigment absorbs it and turns it to heat. That heat disables the follicle, so the hair sheds and regrowth comes through finer and sparser.
How long results lastFrench Hot Waxing
Three to six weeks, depending on your growth cycle. With regular waxing the hair grows back finer and softer, and regrowth becomes less dense.
Laser Hair Removal
Long term reduction. Most hair is permanently reduced across a course, with occasional top ups to keep the area smooth.
Sessions neededFrench Hot Waxing
One appointment per area, repeated every three to six weeks for as long as you want the area smooth.
Laser Hair Removal
A course of six to eight sessions, spaced a few weeks apart, because hair grows in cycles.
ComfortFrench Hot Waxing
Minimal discomfort. Hot wax adheres to the hair rather than the skin, which makes it gentler than strip wax on sensitive areas.
Laser Hair Removal
Most patients describe a warm sensation rather than pain. Built in cooling keeps the handpiece comfortable and no anaesthetic is needed.
Aftercare and downtimeFrench Hot Waxing
Mild redness or sensitivity settles quickly. Avoid hot showers, sun exposure and perfumed products for 24 to 48 hours, and wear loose clothing.
Laser Hair Removal
No real downtime. Mild redness can appear for a few hours. Use sun protection and avoid heat such as saunas for 24 hours.
Hair and skin suitabilityFrench Hot Waxing
Effective on all hair types, including coarse, fine and stubborn hair, and on the grey or blonde hair that laser cannot target.
Laser Hair Removal
The Soprano Titanium is safe for all skin tones, including darker skin. The laser needs pigment in the hair, so it works best on brown and black hair.
Using both togetherFrench Hot Waxing
A good choice while you decide on laser, and for hair colours or areas laser cannot treat. Waxing needs to stop once a laser course starts.
Laser Hair Removal
Stop waxing and plucking a few weeks before your course begins, because the laser needs the hair root in place. Shaving between sessions is fine.

Why Wax at Cannelle Skin Clinic?

Waxing removes hair from the root, meaning smoother skin that lasts significantly longer than shaving. Most clients enjoy hair-free results for 3 to 6 weeks, depending on hair growth cycles.

With regular waxing:

  • Hair grows back finer and softer
  • Regrowth becomes less noticeable
  • Skin remains smoother for longer

At Cannelle, we use French hot wax, known for being gentler and more comfortable than traditional waxing methods. This makes it especially suitable for sensitive skin and intimate areas, while still delivering consistent, high-quality results.

Waxing Aftercare

After your waxing appointment, mild redness or sensitivity is normal and usually settles quickly.

To protect your skin and maximise results:

  • Avoid hot showers, sun exposure and perfumed products for 24–48 hours
  • Wear loose clothing to reduce friction
  • Moisturise regularly with a gentle, fragrance-free product
  • Begin gentle exfoliation after a few days to help prevent ingrown hairs

Maintaining regular waxing every 3–6 weeks helps slow regrowth and improve overall skin smoothness.

Our patients return to us year after year for natural, balanced results. Every review reflects our commitment to precision, safety and a personalised approach to aesthetic care.

I had two waxings and a biofacial today. Holly was excellent, knowledgeable, and impeccable in her attention. The products also felt really lovely – the hot wax was painless and the facial products felt luxurious. The whole experience was the best I’ve ever had. Will come back.

I go to Cannelle for facials, manicures and pedicures. They are professional, skilled, and attentive to my needs. It’s a lovely and relaxing environment. Mursal gives such wonderful treatments. She is very knowledgable about skin care and very gentle in the application of the products. I see her every 6 weeks for a facial and my skin has never looked better.

Fantastic. Very welcoming, explained the process and kept me updated throughout – ensuring I was OK. Shared aftercare advice. The charcoal facial was painless and I’m looking forward to seeing the results – I can already see an improvement in skin texture and tone. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to return.
