Absolutely flawless experience with Esmeralda. I am baby smooth, she even did magic getting deep ingrowns to pop out relatively painlessly and extract them (very satisfying to watch).
She's also a joy to talk to, I felt like I was catching up with a friend! It was my first time at Lux Wax and genuinely excited to see her again as I will definitely return.

Gail & the team are amazing, so quick and efficient. She makes you feel very comfortable, the best wax I’ve ever had. I will never go anywhere else now. Incredible 🩷
Wonderful experience, probably the best waxing experience I’ve had. Oxana was very professional, thorough and talked me through every step of the treatment. The atmosphere is calming and I felt completely at ease. I will be back!!
I used to come to LuxWax a few years ago before I moved out of the area and always had a positive experience, the staff always welcoming and providing an excellent service.
After a negative experience at another place, I decided I would travel a bit further to come to LuxWax this time as I knew I could trust them and I wasn’t wrong! Great experience, Simona was so lovely, made me feel really comfortable and demonstrated great expertise. I would always recommend LuxWax and Simona! Thank you so much!!

Excellent service by Simona. I never like to get waxed but she made it all feel super easy and simple and fast! And she was perfectly careful the whole time and made sure every hair was gone. My first time here but I will definitely be back. Thank you.
Booked via Google Maps for Heath Street, but appointment was actually at another location not listed in their system. Had to take a £15, 25-minute Uber after arriving on time. Simona called saying she would leave in 5 minutes despite the mix-up.
When I arrived, she said my hair was too short (just under 1 cm) but rushed through the wax anyway. Then she tried to charge extra for Lycon wax, even though I’d already paid £48 (more than the listed £43 full leg with Lycon).
Only after calling Gail was the charge waived and a credit added. Overall: unclear booking system, and stressful service. Wouldn’t return unless they fix these issues. Given the great reviews of Gail at the Heath street location, I would give this salon one more try and amend the review.

I’ve just had my second visit, and I can confidently say I won’t be going anywhere else. Gail is amazing, professional, friendly, and she makes the whole experience so comfortable and easy. Her attention to detail and gentle approach really set her apart. The space is very clean. If you’re looking for someone you can trust for waxing, I highly recommend LuxWax!
Where do I even begin? Gail is an absolute gem! From my very first appointment, she made me feel completely at ease. She has a calming presence that makes what could be an uncomfortable experience feel like a total treat.
Every time I see her, it's consistent excellence — gentle, thorough, and always leaving me with a smooth, flawless result. I genuinely look forward to my waxing sessions now (never thought I’d say that!), and that’s all thanks to her.
Her space is always spotless, beautifully maintained, and smells amazing. Hygiene is clearly a top priority — no double-dipping, everything is sanitized and disposed of properly. It’s the kind of professionalism and care that’s hard to find.
I wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else. Gail is not just skilled at what she does — she’s a true diamond, and it’s always a pleasure being in her care.

The best hair removal I have ever had. Gail is not only an expert at what she does (waxing and laser for me) but she is sensitive and a pleasure to talk to. She makes you feel completely comfortable. I look forward to our regular appointments (which you can’t often say about waxing and laser sessions! 🤣)
I had a great experience from the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease. The space is clean and relaxing—exactly what you want for a waxing appointment. My aesthetician Gail was incredibly professional, gentle, and detail-oriented. She made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process with flawless results.
I’ve previously been to other wax studios however Lux Wax is truly a step above the rest. The products they use are high quality, and my skin felt smooth and irritation-free afterwards. You can tell they really care about hygiene, comfort, and making every client feel confident.
If you’re looking for a top-tier waxing experience, this is the place. I’m officially a loyal customer!

All the reviews of how talented Gail is are 100% true. I’m very sensitive to waxing and she handled the appointment wonderfully. I’m very grateful to have found her and will definitely be using her services again!
I went to LuxWax for a wax and it couldn’t have been a better experience. Esmeralda was so sweet and welcoming, also made sure I was super comfortable the whole time. I was quite nervous prior in case I wouldn’t be able to handle the pain but honestly it was super quick and almost completely pain free! I found this place on Google and due to the amazing reviews I decided to check it out and I’m so happy I did because there’s nooo way I’m going anywhere else now. Best experience ever! They deserve all the praise honestly.
As a male client, I was initially a bit apprehensive about starting laser hair removal, but Gail made the entire process feel completely comfortable and straightforward. She’s professional, patient, and extremely thorough, taking real care to ensure everything is done properly.
What really impressed me is the honesty and integrity of the service — no pressure to add extra treatments, and Gail even treated small additional areas at no extra cost, just to make sure the results were even and effective.
The results have been outstanding. I genuinely couldn’t be happier and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the clinic to anyone considering laser hair removal. You’ll be in excellent hands.

After researching so many places to get my first wax done. I chose LuxWax because of the amazing 5 star reviews. I was worried about the pain initially as I decided to go for a Hollywood and armpit wax for my first wax. Esmerlada was so lovely, made me feel so comfortable and was very knowledgeable. My skin feels so smooth and my body confidence has come back. I will definitely be coming back and starting my waxing journey. Thank you!
Frequently Asked Questions
Find our list of frequently asked questions regarding our waxing services at our Hampstead clinic below. If you can’t find the answer you are looking for, please contact us to speak to one of our friendly team members.
What is waxing?
Waxing is a popular method for removing body hair. It involves applying warm wax to the skin, allowing it to adhere to the hair, and then swiftly removing the wax, along with the unwanted hair, from the root.
Why should I choose waxing over other hair removal methods?
Waxing is considered one of the most effective and long-lasting methods for removing body hair. Unlike shaving or using depilatory creams, which only remove hair from the surface, waxing removes hair from the root. This leads to a smoother and longer-lasting result.
How long will the results of waxing last?
The results of waxing typically last between 2 to 4 weeks, depending on your individual hair growth cycle. Since the hair is removed from the root, it takes longer to grow back compared to shaving, where hair regrowth is more noticeable within a few days.
What is the temperature of hot wax, and does it cause discomfort?
The hot wax is carefully heated to a range of 52-55 degrees Celsius, which is generally considered a comfortable temperature for most individuals. To further enhance your comfort during the waxing process, we apply an oil that acts as a protective barrier between the wax and your skin, reducing any potential discomfort. It’s important to note that the wax adheres to the hair rather than the skin, resulting in minimal pain.
What makes Luxwax so effective?
LuxWax’s effectiveness lies in our waxes’ unique formulae that allow it to envelop the hair and tighten around it as it dries. This exceptional feature enables the hair to be removed from the root without causing any breakage, resulting in smooth skin and an extended regrowth period.
What's the distinction between Hot Wax and Warm Wax?
What sets hot wax apart from warm wax is its ability to adhere solely to body hair rather than the skin, ensuring skin protection and a nearly painless removal experience. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for individuals with sensitive skin, minimising post-wax sensitivity.
On the other hand, warm wax, commonly referred to as strip wax, operates on a similar principle. It is typically employed for larger areas and effectively eliminates all types of hair, including fine strands.
How long does a waxing session take?
The duration of a waxing session depends on the specific treatment area. Here are the approximate time frames:
- Face: For treatments such as the upper lip, it generally takes about 10 minutes. If you opt for a full face wax, it may take around 20 minutes.
- Upper body: Treatment areas like underarms typically take up to 10 minutes. If you’re getting your full arms waxed, it may require approximately 25 minutes.
- Lower body: Most lower body treatments take up to 30 minutes.
- Full body: If you’re looking to get a wax for your entire body, you should allow up to 1 hour and 45 minutes for the session.
Booking a treatment with pre-existing conditions
Please inform our team if you have any of the following conditions:
- Diabetes
- Epilepsy
- Haemophilia
- Red and tender scar tissue
- Sunburns
- Recent use of Accutane within the last 6 months
- Currently undergoing skin treatments for thinning skin or blood
- Any other conditions you believe we should be aware of
Can I undergo a waxing treatment while pregnant?
It is typically considered safe to receive waxing services once you have entered your second trimester of pregnancy. Additionally, we provide specialised Lycon waxes designed specifically for expectant mothers who are in their seventh month of pregnancy or beyond.
Can I wax on my period?
Periods are not contraindications and therefore we can go ahead with your treatment as normal. Please wear a clean tampon.
It was my first visit to LuxWax and it exceeded all expectations. What a lovely salon. Extremely clean and a great vibe. Juliana was extremely professional and really friendly. Highly recommend for body waxing !
Best wax I have ever had! Linzi was personable, professional, caring & welcoming. I had the ‘Full Monty’ with their own wax, which was painless and left my skin feeling soft & smooth. Linzi also gave me an aftercare package! Such a lovely and personal touch to a great experience. Couldn’t recommend Linzi and LuxWax more!
I have also just started a laser hair removal programme for my bikini area and cannot recommend it enough! Really painless and so effective - I have seen results after just 2 sessions - I am so happy with the results and would highly recommend!
They are professional, do a great job and are nice - a truly “often imitated but never equalled” great experience. I was looking to change from a salon in the West End I used to go to.
The place was beautiful. Service was great, professionalism was a 10/10 I went for a wax. Every question I had was answered with detail. She made me feel so comfortable and gave me great aftercare advice. She was so professional and friendly I will definitely be booking again!
