Back or Chest Wax

£28.50 – £38

20 - 30 mins

Smooth, clean, and confident — professional waxing for longer-lasting results without the irritation of shaving.

What Is a Back or Chest Wax?

A back or chest wax removes unwanted hair from either the full back or the chest area using professional-grade wax. It offers a much smoother and longer-lasting result than shaving, with minimal regrowth and no stubble. At Honeys, we use high-quality wax suitable for larger areas and sensitive skin, helping to ensure a more comfortable experience and cleaner finish.

Whether you’re preparing for a holiday, gym time, or just prefer a hair-free feel, this treatment leaves the skin smooth and refreshed.

More information

Who Is It For?

This service is popular with men who want to reduce or remove thicker hair from the back or chest area. It’s ideal for those who are tired of the upkeep of shaving or have experienced irritation from clippers or hair removal creams.

First-time waxing? No problem. Our experienced beauty therapists will walk you through the process to make sure you’re comfortable from start to finish.

How Long Does It Take?

A back or chest wax usually takes around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on hair type and density. Your therapist will ensure the treatment is carried out professionally and efficiently in a private, hygienic setting.

What’s the Process?

Your appointment will begin with a brief consultation. The area is cleansed and prepped before applying wax to remove the hair from the root. A soothing aftercare lotion is then used to calm the skin and minimise any redness.

How Often Is Maintenance Needed?

To stay smooth, we recommend rebooking every 4 to 6 weeks. With regular treatments, hair becomes finer, making each wax quicker, easier, and more effective over time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long will a back or chest wax last?

Most clients stay smoother for around 3 to 6 weeks, depending on hair growth. With regular waxing, regrowth often feels softer and less blunt than shaving.

Is back or chest waxing painful?

You will feel quick, sharp pulls as the hair is removed from the root, but it is over in seconds per section. Keeping to a regular schedule usually makes it feel easier over time.

How long should the hair be before my wax?

Aim for around 5 to 10 mm of hair growth so the wax can grip properly. If the hair is much longer, trimming beforehand can make the appointment more comfortable.

What should I avoid after a back or chest wax?

For 24 to 48 hours, avoid heat (hot baths, saunas), heavy sweating, and fragranced body products on the area. This helps reduce redness and lowers the chance of irritation.

Can I have chest or back waxing if my skin is sensitive or I use active skincare?

Let us know if you use retinoids, acids, or prescription skin treatments, or if you are sunburnt, as waxing may need to be postponed. If you are unsure, ask before booking so we can advise safely.
