Mobile Spray Tan & Beauty Therapy Waxing Waxing removes hair from the root so it takes longer for the hair to grow again and growth will be sparse. The body part to be waxed is applied with a thin layer of wax and a muslin cloth is then placed over the wax.  The skin is then held taught and the muslin quickly removed. After waxing you will usually be hair free from 3-6 weeks depending on the individual speed of hair growth. The hair that grows after waxing is much softer and finer and the beauty of waxing is there is no stubble a day or two after.
