Kris Owner and Wax Specialist at Wicked Wax

Hi I’m Kris, owner of Wicked Wax and I love waxing!

About Kris

Almost 10 years ago whilst working for the NHS I decided to take an evening college course in beauty therapy. I found a passion for waxing but the standards in training (especially waxing training) were pretty disappointing, which obviously explained why it was almost impossible to find anyone in the local area who specialised in intimate waxing. At the time I was travelling into Manchester for my own waxing treatments. So I began researching private waxing training and undertook two separate training courses in Manchester and London and also went along to two more training courses to be waxed myself as a demo model (yes I’ve had my bits out and waxed in front of 16 other women!), and that was how Wicked Wax came to be.

I’m a huge advocate for regular waxing and don’t like to offer appointments to women who want a “one off” wax - as that doesn’t produce the best results. I wax women of all ages, shapes and sizes, the only thing I’m bothered about if you’re coming for a wax is that you make sure you’re hairy enough.

I wear a variety of colourful uniforms (black looks dreadful on me). I'm married with a 20 year old son who is at university. I’m a true crime podcast fan, a campervan chick, I do lots of walking with my husband and our very noisy miniature schnauzer, and I love reading, cooking and eating. Anyone that’s ever visited me for an afternoon appointment will be familiar with my number 1 question… “what’s for tea tonight?”.

I promise you’ll feel welcomed and comfortable from the moment you arrive and you’ll leave feeling super smooth. I’m usually fully booked several weeks ahead so if you’re thinking of starting your waxing journey or you’re already a regular waxer who wants to add yourself to my waitlist, click the ‘Book Now’ button and I’ll see you soon!

About Waxing

I know waxing isn’t everyone’s favourite treatment, most people who get waxed just want it done as quickly and painlessly as possible, so my aim is to make sure you feel comfortable, have a great waxing experience and leave saying “it wasn’t as bad as I thought it’d be”.

I’ve trained with some of the most respected waxing therapists in the industry who specialise ONLY in intimate waxing.  Along with my years of waxing experience, this has allowed me to develop my own unique technique.

Being the best doesn’t just stop at doing a couple of training courses! Committed to continuously improving my skills, I regularly attend seminars, further training and waxing workshops to keep up to date with the latest innovations in waxing.  I use only the highest quality products before, during and after all waxing treatments for the best results.

I understand it can be a bit daunting if you’ve never had it done before, or even if you have and are thinking of changing therapist.  Take a look at my waxing FAQ’s page which should answer most of the questions you might have. If not, then get in touch and I’m happy to talk to you about it.

If you’re coming to me for a treatment I like you to know EXACTLY what you’re getting, so my price list is very descriptive and details precisely the areas from which hair will be removed.

All of my intimate, facial and underarm waxing treatments are carried out using hot wax.  Don’t be fooled by the name though.  Hot wax is actually kept at a lower temperature than strip wax.  It shrink wraps the hair without sticking to the skin and is removed by peeling off.  This makes it a more gentle and effective way of hair removal and gives you a much more comfortable treatment than traditional strip wax.
