Velvet Waxing in Phuket is a bright, well-kept studio with a tidy waiting area, air conditioning, and calm background music. Everything feels clean and “like new,” thanks to careful attention to detail: a pleasant scent, a comfortable room temperature, and complimentary cold water.
Their main specialty is waxing done with the gentlest possible technique. Services include bikini (including Brazilian/Hollywood), underarms, legs (including half-leg/thigh), arms, and eyebrow shaping. For sensitive areas, they use stripless hot wax, which feels soft and comfortable on the skin. Treatments are quick and controlled, with noticeably less discomfort and minimal redness. The result is smooth and long-lasting — typically for several weeks, and sometimes up to two months. With regular visits, hair grows back finer and softer, and ingrown hairs are rarely an issue.
The studio follows strict hygiene standards, keeping tools and equipment impeccably clean and using organic, hypoallergenic products. The staff are polite and help you feel at ease; communication is easy, and the technicians speak confident English. In addition to waxing, they also offer facial treatments featuring thorough cleansing, masks, and elements inspired by Japanese skincare techniques.
Pricing is straightforward: you pay exactly what’s listed, with no hidden extras. One thing to note: payment is cash only, and getting there may take time if you’re staying on the other side of the island.
