What Is A Vajacial: An introduction and breakdown
When discussing skincare, the first and arguably the only thing that we may think of is how we care for the skin on our face. While tending to our complexion is important, the face is not the only area that may need a little extra TLC. That’s where a vajacial comes in! Throughout this article, we will be exploring what a vajacial treatment is, what it entails, and why it’s important for clients and their vaginal health.
What’s a vajacial treatment?
A vajacial is exactly what it sounds like: a facial for the vulva. A licensed esthetician will assess any skin concerns and curate a specialized treatment to soothe and remedy any pre-existing problem areas.
The benefits of vajacials
Overall, most clients find that vajacials can provide a number of benefits for any existing skincare concerns. In addition to soothing problem areas, vajacials can also help keep the skin surrounding the pubic area happy and healthy. Whether it's just the bikini line making an appearance while out at the beach, or sharing intimate time with a partner, you can rest assured that your skin will be looking its best.
What skin concerns do vajacials target?
For individuals struggling with ingrown hairs or negative side effects of shaving, a vajacial can really help soothe the skin. For the most part, vajacials are a wonderful tool when trying to address ingrown hairs, dark spots, razor burn, uneven skin tone, and general signs of irritation. As such, vajacials are often offered as a post-wax service that helps soothe skin, while also preparing the hair follicles for when the pubic hairs eventually regrow.
Can anyone get a vajacial?
Yes! Practically anyone can get a vajacial! This process is not only safe, but completely non-invasive. Gentle products are applied to the skin surrounding the intimate areas. As a customized process to each individual, there are practically no restrictions on the service.
All about the vajacial treatment process
Like what you’re hearing? Think your intimate bits could use a little TLC? We love to hear it! Below is our crash course on what to expect both during and after your service.
What to do to prepare for your vajacial
Preparation for a vajacial appointment is easy: simply show up to your appointment on time, freshly washed and let your skincare professional do the rest! While there are no rules requiring guests to bathe prior to their appointment, it’s considered both a courtesy to your provider as well as a way for the products to be more effective at their job. Bathing removes the buildup of dirt and body oil while also removing any buildup of unwanted skin cells.
Steps to expect during your vajacial
Once you’ve arrived, your esthetician will discuss any skincare concerns and answer any outstanding questions you may have. When ready, clients will be asked to disrobe from the waist down and lay on the esthetician's waxing bench. The area being treated will go through a basic cleansing before a special concoction of revitalizing products are applied.
At Naked Skin Esthetics, our most popular combo is the Brazilian + Breakout Shield Vajacial, which includes both waxing and a vajacial to help address your skincare concerns and reduce the appearance of ingrown hairs following a wax.
Recommended vajacial aftercare
Once the process has been completed, your technician will walk you through appropriate aftercare, as well as how best to care for your freshly treated area in order to achieve continued results at home. While a customized aftercare plan will be laid out, it’s important to avoid any irritation to the skin and direct sunlight for at least 48 hours following your appointment.
Other common questions about vajacials
For those who may not be familiar with the vajacial process, we’ve taken the time to outline some of the most commonly asked questions below.
How much do vajacials cost?
When pricing out a vajacial, it is important to understand that cost can fluctuate based on both the service, and the cost of living based on where you live. Some vajacials will be basic, simply pampering the skin, while others may require extractions and other add-on services that would increase the overall cost. On average, a vajacial service can cost anywhere from $50-$150.
When should you get a vajacial post-wax?
While there generally is no wrong time to get a vajacial following a bikini or brazilian wax, it is strongly recommended for clients who struggle with ingrown hairs or prolonged irritation following their hair removal appointment. Post-wax vajacials aim to soothe and reinforce the skin.
Vajacial treatments without waxing should be booked 1 to 2 weeks post-wax appointment.
How often should you get a vajacial?
The frequency of vajacial treatments is typically between 4 to 6 weeks, similar to the time between regular facials or waxing appointments. Be sure to take the time to discuss frequency with your provider in order to determine the best possible treatment plan.
