Waxing for men without the beauty salon attitude

Man Thing is a male-first studio specifically aimed at guys. That means it's simple, attitude-free, and relaxed.
Men's Waxing is the most popular treatment I provide. It's what I'm best known for. In fact, my old shop in Brisbane was the very first Male Waxing studio in Queensland.
That's not a boast, but some serious comfort for guys who are considering a first time wax and don't know who to trust. So that's the big sell. I hope you liked it. 😊
Below, you'll find loads of info on Men's Waxing as well as prices and preparation tips.

Call me on 4926 7778 or 0422 276 202 if you have any questions or to make a booking. You can also book online.
Have a brilliant day,
Andrew Thompson.

FAQ ★ Men's Waxing
What advice do you have for before and after?
With a little bit of preparation and after-care, you can maximise the results of your waxing treatment.
- Moisturise the area a few days leading up to your appointment.
- Wear loose fitting clothes.
- Avoid synthetic materials.
- Don't clipper your hair to shorten it.
- Use post-wax lotion afterwards.
- Avoid chlorine, hot tubs, gym after.
- Avoid antiperspirant and cologne after.
I know you thru sport etc. Will that be awkward?
I am active in local sports, arts, and business circles. It follows that many people in those communities are also clients.
That isn't awkward for me. My Duty of Care is clear-cut and I can easily separate my roles. Your privacy and confidentiality while in my rooms, is absolute.
Why do men get waxed?
Men usually get waxed to satisfy their sense of self-image, increase comfort, or because their partners prefer the smooth look.
What type of guys get waxed?

The range and reasons for seeking waxing treatments are diverse.
To date, my youngest male client is a 9 year old boy with a monobrow, and my oldest an 87 year old man who wanted to surprise his wife for their wedding anniversary.

What are the most common areas men wax?
A back wax is definitely the most common area as both men and their partners find hairy backs irritating night and day. Close second and third places would be bum cracks and Manzilians.
I can't get to you often. What should I do between waxes?
The best option is to use clippers or hair trimmers.
You won't be quite as smooth as waxing, but you also won't get a rash or ingrowns like you will with shaving or creams.
Here are two related articles if you'd like to know more.
What could prevent me having a male wax?
If you are in good health and have no major skin conditions, you should be an ideal candidate for waxing.
To learn more, here is a full list of contraindications for waxing that might make you unsuitable for treatment.
I'm transitioning. Are you OK with that?
I'm not remotely bothered. You're no different to any other client who wants hair removed, maybe just a little more self-conscious.
I mainly see M2F trans folk, so the sight of boobs on a guy or under-sized male genitalia due to feminising hormones is familiar territory.
Feel free to disclose any physical insecurities you might have before I see you naked, if that helps prepare you for the treatment.
Can I follow my wax with a massage?
Definitely. I provide two types of massage that can follow your wax, depending on what you want.
