Yep, they can mess with your self-tan, so it’s best to plan ahead! Boddi hair removers exfoliate skin in addition to removing hair, so using them before a self tanning product give you a more even tan. Wait 24 hours between using Boddi products and tanning.
If your skin isn’t loving it, stop using it and rinse the area thoroughly with warm water. If in doubt, check in with your healthcare professional. Don’t proceed with the full treatment.

WAX STRIPS
Skip the razor burn and daily grind! Waxing gives you that silky smoothness for up to 4 weeks straight. Our soft fabric strips are totally beginner-friendly and mess-free – perfect for legs, pits, and bikini bits, whether you’re a waxing virgin or seasoned pro.
Absolutely! Each Boddi strip works for up to 3 rounds. Just fold it in half, warm it up between your palms for 5 seconds, unfold, and you’re good to go again.
Yes, try our Skin Smoothie All Over Oil to remove any remaining wax.
Aim for about 3mm – think the length of a grain of rice vibes, that’s the zone for maximum grip.
YES! Stick to a consistent wax routine and you’ll notice slower, finer regrowth over time. It’s like training your hair to chill out.
No, always read carefully the Warnings section before use.
HAIR REMOVAL CREAM
This cream is your fast pass to smooth skin – just 7 minutes and you’re done. Zero pain, zero drama. Plus it’s packed with Aloe Vera and Vitamin E so your skin stays hydrated and glowing. No razor burns or cuts to worry about – we don’t do that here.
The cream formula contains ingredients that break the bonds of hair, then easily wiped away and removed.
Listen, razors just chop your hair at skin level, leaving you with that crusty stubble nobody asked for. Hair removal cream dissolves the hair below the surface, so you stay smoother for longer.
Absolutely! Our Sensitive formula is made for delicate skin and those high-maintenance areas (underarms, bikini line – you know the drill). It’s gentle but still gets the job done. We’re not about that irritation life.
Wait at least 72 hours between uses. Your skin needs time to chill.
Yes, always pre-test 24 hours before each use on the area of treatment. Your skin sensitivity levels can vary due to climatic, hormone levels (including that time of the month for women), food, medication that affects the skin and other outside influences. If there is no reaction after 24 hours, you can proceed with the full treatment.
If your hair isn’t budging, your skin might not have been totally clean and dry before you applied the cream. Moisturizers and body oils can create a barrier that blocks the formula from doing its thing. Make sure you’re going heavy with the cream – we’re talking generous, even coverage. Set that timer (seriously, don’t wing it!) and wash your hands right after application.
Absolutely! Our tubes are made from sugarcane plastic and are 100% curbside recyclable. Sugarcane is a renewable resource that’s way more sustainable than traditional plastic – it’s our way of keeping your hair removal routine planet-positive and reducing our carbon footprint.
HAIR LIGHTENER KIT
Our Hair Lightener is a simple and effective way to gently lighten dark hairs, significantly reducing their visibility.
With our two-cream formula, it is simple for you to mix what you need, when you want it. Remember to always do a patch test 24 hours prior before doing a full treatment.
All good for all over: upper lip, jaw, chin, side of face, arms, hands, & feet.
For our Hair Lightener to work effectively, you need to ensure you are adding in equal amounts of both the lightener and vitaliser into the mixing pottle.
No, tighten the caps on the tubes securely and store in a cool dry place until the next treatment.
It takes 8-10 regular bleaching treatments to go from a deep dark brown to blonde. Natural progression is black-brown-reds-light brown/dull blonde-blonde. Regular bleaching means weekly.
Our Hair Lightener must not be rubbed in or scrapped off. This leads to tiny abrasions in the hair follicle which can cause the product to remain in the pore and cause irritation. Always remember wipe off with a damp cloth or an allergy may be the cause if known.
