VIEW our PRODUCTSWe are ready to take Brazilian Butterfly into the future of beauty.
My story began when I was a 29-year-old mother of three, with my youngest not even one yet and my middle child born with special needs. I wanted to create a beauty business with a simple belief that waxing could be done better, more efficiently, and definitely more hygienic. I wanted the space to be inviting and friendly for everyone, with a relaxed atmosphere.
So, I decided “I’m going to go to work now hubby. You get to be at home with the kids because I have this amazing idea to take Brazilian waxing into the mainstream, to leave behind its slightly seedy image and establish it as just another beauty service like waxing an armpit.”
When I found my first space in Bridge Rd Richmond, I knew I was home. My new home for several years anyway! Balancing time for myself and the kids was not easy or often, but luckily, they had a capable and fun dad to rely on to fill my role. While I was at work, hubby and the kids would spend the evenings filling and labelling our BB products on the kitchen bench (which my eldest daughter excelled at!).
Then came franchising our now growing brand across Australia and no longer ‘bottling our product on the kitchen bench’. I am proud to say we develop and maintain our own Australian owned, cruelty-free, and vegan-friendly wax, and a range of BB aftercare products which are sold in salons and online.
With a strong emphasis on training and development, customer care, and our new next-generation salons rolling out, we are ready to take Brazilian Butterfly into the future of beauty.
We are looking forward to seeing where this next part of our journey lands.

Uncovering The Secrets To A Perfect Brazilian Wax
Embrace the allure of Brazilian wax and unveil the goddess within you at Brazilian Butterfly!
We’re not just waxing experts; we’re your beauty allies, crafting an artful experience that promotes radiant skin and boosts your confidence. So let’s dive into the aesthetic charm, skincare perks, essential wax wisdom, safety standards, and post-wax care that define our Brazilian wax service. Are you ready to conquer self-care?
Let’s get to it!
The Brazilian wax: upsides and insights
The allure of the Brazilian wax
Ladies and gents, it’s time to unleash your inner diva with a Brazilian wax!
Renowned worldwide for its alluring aesthetic appeal and skincare benefits, this method of hair removal is a testament to the saying, ‘Beauty is power.’ Unlike other hair removal methods, a Brazilian wax uproots hair completely, ensuring it takes an extended hiatus before resurfacing. Consistent waxing sessions can also train your hair to regrow softer, thinner, and less visible.
Brazilian waxes, when done right, pull hair from the root, ensuring softer and weaker regrowth with fewer ingrown hairs. It’s the fast-track express ticket to smooth skin sans the rash.
With a Brazilian wax, you’re not just winning the short game but also the long one. Radiant, fresh, and healthy skin? Yes, please!
Navigating the Brazilian wax experience
First-time jitters: you don’t have to worry!
First-time jitters: you don’t have to worry!
- Stay calm. Deep breaths during the process can help minimise discomfort. Remind yourself that it’s only temporary, and soon you’ll be strutting around with silky smooth skin.
- No judgements here. Brazilian Butterfly is all about creating a comfortable space. Your therapist is a pro and has seen it all (really!), so you can relax knowing that there’s no judgement here.
- It’s okay to be a little nervous. If you have some anxiety concerns and need some reassurance about the waxing process, give your therapist a heads-up. They’re equipped to make the process as comfortable as possible and will talk you through what to expect when you’re being waxed.
- Don’t be shy – speak up! Always voice your concerns and preferences to your therapist. They can tailor the process to make it more comfortable for you.
Safety first at Brazilian Butterfly
A professional Brazilian wax is the ideal way to get smooth and hair-free skin; nothing beats the comfort and expertise of a professional wax. That’s why at Brazilian Butterfly, we’re not just about body confidence and sass; we’re about safety too.
Whether it’s your first Brazilian wax or your twentieth, you can step away from the shaving razor and strut into Brazilian Butterfly, where a satisfying and safe Brazilian waxing experience awaits you.
After all, self-care is about wellness, not just aesthetics. So, get ready to embark on a worry-free journey towards a smooth, confident you. Life is too short for bad waxing experiences, isn’t it?
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
So, you’ve booked your Brazilian wax – now what?
First, the technician will cleanse the area, clearing away any lotions or oils. Next comes the protective pre-wax treatment, followed by the waxing itself – a swift application and peeling off of the wax, along with your hair. Finally, your esthetician will share aftercare advice to ensure a smooth recovery and radiant results.
If it’s your first time getting a Brazilian wax, keep these factors in mind for a fabulously smooth ride:
- Length matters. Grow your hair out enough so that your BB therapist has room to work with. We’ll take care of the trimming for you when you come in for your session!
- Timing is important! If you get sensitive around that time of the month, schedule your session mindfully to avoid increased skin sensitivity. We don’t want you to be uncomfortable!
- Prep the canvas. Exfoliate or bathe beforehand to strip away dead skin for easier hair removal.
- Trust the pros. Your BB therapists are here to maximise results and prevent risks. Lie back, and let us take care of you!
There’s also the aftercare to keep in mind coming out of your Brazilian wax session.
For the first twenty-four hours post-wax, your skin prefers a chill vibe. Stick with cool water to help soothe and settle it back into its groove. You’ll want to embrace aftercare lotions as well, as these lotions are our best friend in wiping off the waxy residue, soothing your skin, and preventing those pesky red bumps and ingrown hairs.
Next, do the ‘exfoliate and moisturise’ dance: start this routine two to three days post-wax, when your skin has had its rest. But remember, moisturise from day one or two so you can keep your skin hydrated without clogging your pores or exposing it to harsh chemicals.
Finally, play hide-and-seek with the sun! Keep your freshly waxed skin away from the sun for at least twenty-four hours to avoid any chances of burning. If you’re feeling a bit heated under your skin after a Brazilian wax, a quick way to calm it down is with a cold compress. It’s like giving your skin a little ‘You did great, sweetie’ pat.
By rocking these aftercare tips, you’ll ensure your skin stays happy, healthy, and ready for your next Brazilian wax adventure!
How long will you be rocking the salon gown for a Brazilian wax? Typically, fifteen to thirty minutes, though first-timers may need up to an hour. It’s a quick transformation!
You’re curious: is a Brazilian wax painful? The answer is no; it isn’t at all! The intensity varies with each individual; for some, it’s a slight pinch, while others might not feel a thing. Generally, though, it’s a fleeting discomfort that results in a fabulous outcome, and it only gets better over time.
To take the edge off, you may try an over-the-counter painkiller about thirty minutes before your Brazilian wax rendezvous. Brazilian Butterfly uses a secret-recipe berry wax that’s designed to keep the ouchies to a minimum, but don’t hesitate to chat with your BB therapist about any concerns; they’re there to make it as comfortable as possible for you.
Your transformation starts here at Brazilian Butterfly.
