information

Bikini waxing is one of the most popular treatments for women looking to achieve a smoother skin. At Sugarbox Clinic in Newport, we offer bikini waxing services that are tailored to you. A bikini wax involves the removal of unwanted hair from the bikini line and surrounding area. It is ideal for those who prefer a polished look in swimwear or lingerie. Hot wax is the best option for bikini waxing because it adheres firmly to the hair without sticking

excessively to the skin, making the process less painful and more effective for removing even coarse hairs.

At Sugarbox Clinic, your comfort is our priority. Our trained beauty therapists aim to make you feel as relaxed as possible. Whether you’re a waxing regular or new to the experience, we can ensure you will leave our salon feeling amazing!
