Lycon Waxing FAQ

What is Lycon waxing?

Lycon waxing is a premium hair removal system designed to remove hair effectively while being gentle on the skin. It works by gripping the hair rather than the skin, which can help reduce discomfort and irritation during treatment.

Lycon hot wax is applied at a lower temperature than many traditional waxes and contains soothing ingredients to help protect the skin throughout the treatment.
